So you wanted an entirely different movie. Or a trilogy? Or maybe just a documentary about Somalia?

There's only so much sympathy you can generate for armed pirates man.
:comeon::childplease: No I don't want a documentary. As I stated it was like look at these black savages attacking this innocent white man's ship. Like them Somali nikkas didn't have families?:usure:Like when Captain Phillips was like "there is 30 thousand in the safe you can take it" and Somali nikka was like "do I look like a beggar to you?".
Again I am looking at the story, but I also looking at the production value of the movie. Why are certain characters framed in a certain light? Why do the Somali nikkas look like fukken monsters in the movie, when they alright looking nikkas in real life? (No homo)


At the end of the day, :yeshrug:

Side note, one of the nikkas winning, look at the beautiful African Queen he brought to the premiere :blessed:

Because they were pirates who attacked an innocent ship. That is literally what happened in real life.

Uhh....because they were armed pirates?

Did you want them to board the ship rocking suits?

Yeah, this is the dumbest thread I've ever read. Obviously they're going to portray the villains in a negative light ... the fact that they happened to have black skin is irrelevant. It's a common thing in movies ... even with WHITE antagonists.

But there are also movies like Heat and Munich where even the villains are humanized. The villains don't have to be 2 dimensional evil bad guys, it just depends on what they choose to show. This movie was some underhanded shyt. It's presented like "a coragous captain sailing in dangerous waters", well why the fukk are the waters dangerous? Oh because of pirates. Well, why the fukk are these dudes resorting to piracy? Just have em say something about no jobs and call it a day.

Nah man, I ain't going for that. The Somali pirates issue is quite complex, and the film really glossed over the whole shyt.

Thank you my nikka, I think most Americans think it is some Pirates of the Caribbean, eye patch wearing nikka bullshyt, when the reasons are way more complex. Munich is a great fukken example of showing humanity. When them israeli nikkas and the Palestinian nikkas have a conversation on the stairs. Or when the Israeli counter terrorism nikka realizes that one of the targets has a daughter and a family. Or in the end, when the israeli hitman wonders if all the killing is even worth it.

I not going to sit here and explain movie production to some of you simple nikkas. When I say "in the right light", I am talking about actual light, the lighting in the set. Them nikkas look straight demonic in some shots. You realize every frame of the movie is analyzed right?, some nikka in post production looks through everything.

Tom Hanks gonna win an Oscar for this bullshyt.:beli:

LOL...they're the villains in the movie...and you're upset because the lighting made them look like villains. If you don't think that movie made the pirates look human I don't know what to tell you.

And I doubt Hanks wins.

Ejiofor, Redford and Mcconaughey are probably the front runners right now.

:whoo: at that fine broad.

But seriously, they should humanize the Somali pirates in that movie.
