This is basically it. This is the answer breh. It's only black excellence when it's the right kind of black excellence for the coli and we know the coli overall is a pretty homophobic place
If there was a "gay" to be seen that was the one because it didn't have all the stereotypes that are expected, there's one scene in the movie that made me uncomfortable and I consider myself to be non homophobic

Saw it with wifey. Don't know what I feel about it. It's not really a plot driven movie more than it is a character study. Well acted. 3rd act is brilliant.

Only one scene in the movie that makes you feel really uncomfortable. The rest is right up there though. Challenging to watch but nothing overtly wild mango.











No homo :mjgrin:

All whites people in the theater if that says anything.

Homophobic but thecoli has no problem chopping discussions with @Jayne and saying " nah she cool bruh"

i'm curious: why is it black excellence?....because it has a high rating? because it won an award?...just asking...i havent seen the movie yet, maybe it is that good, so i'll save judgement until i see it, i just have reservations.....i say that cause to me, going off the plot, it's the type of movie that non blacks tend to give high praises to just cause it portrays black people in a certain category...the categories i'm talking about: a slave, a homosexual, a help the white people kinda role, the forgiving of white people kinda role, and/or a stereotype....but that doesnt mean it's that good of a movie...like i said: maybe it is, i dont know, havent seen it yet....

The Truth
progressive coli dont like gay stuff
thats pretty much it

but there is a thread on the movie
More like we're tired of the only time we see black men on TV or movies and the movie is celebrated is when he's c00ning (Boyega), slave (pick any), or gay..

Thats why the movie isn't being talked about on here
