How can be be labeled a white savior film when most whites hated it?

c00n film? Yeah. White savior film? No.

I dont get how whites were being "saved".

white savior means that a white person is the savior, not that whites are being saved.

Dr. King Shultz = white savior.

How is Schultz a "white savior"? He explicitly says in the film that he is taking advantage of Django when they make the deal. Even though he is shown not to be a racist he explicitly acknowledges that he is taking advantage of the way blacks are viewed in his partnership with Django. Sandra Bullock's character in "The Blind Side" is a great example of "white savior", Schultz really isn't. Common sense will tell you that a black dude in Slavery era America would not be able to make the moves Django did without a white partner, that's not a 'white savior' thing, thats a logistics thing :ld:

The corniest character in the movie was Django, that tells you everything you need to know about that movie
And on top of that every White dude in the film were given awards and daps for their performance. All the negroes associated with it got the :mjpls: treatment. Virtually the opposite happens in 12 years, from the Director to the supporting Actress.

Django was a boring character and schultz basically stole the show for most of the movie.

:rudy:

After an hour of boring scenes thats what 12 years comes down to, a liberal white guy turns up at the plantation and the main character runs into the cacs arms crying on some cliche romance shyt :aicmon:

But yall the same people that was shytting on a Django :wtf: a much better movie & calling it a 'white savior' because after a whole movie where a black man kills countless cacs & c00ns he didn't kill one cac(leos character):camby:

fake militant fakkits:camby:

negged for attention whoring and attacking a movie over dumb shyt when it is literally an exact duplicate of the actual story that really happened if you read the book you fukkboy

12 years is a true story.

The truth is, Soloman wouldn't have been reunited with his family if it wasn't for his former colleagues, and the gatekeeper (Brad Pitt). I'm not sure what folks were expecting.

Maybe ya'll just don't like slavery movies?

The Blind Side was great because the milf Sandra Bullock was in it, but I always thought this white family was just using him when they realized he had talent. They specifically decided which college he'd go to, etc.

12 years a slave is based off of a REAL STORY you moron. Should they rewrite the historical facts to appease your dumbass?

Django is nothing more than a cac version of a modern blacksploitation fantasy flick designed to appease white guilt.

:sitdown:
:russ: If 12 years a slave is the historically accurate movie and it's clearly more white friendly than Django, which was a fictional slave movie what do you think 'appeases white guilt' more? :heh: fukking idiot. the fact that this retarded shyt even got dapped up proves just how much of Django hate was bandwagon shyt

Django was essentially a black superhero movie when you think about it :ohhh:

quite a few parralels to Batman Begins :ohhh:

Schultz = Ducard(The Mentor), Django = Bruce, Candie = Decoy Ra's Al Ghul and Stephen = Ra's. :ohhh:

Saw Django for the first on Saturday, and that character that Samuel L played, offended me so much. I'm sorry but when it's comes to the issue of slavery, you don't do that to that character. That shyt was just downright disgusting and vulgar, and not even needed.

Samuel L is an embarrassment for playing that role
