What kind of cac logic is this? Among others, it influenced the Quatermain movies, which were even more racist. Breakfast at Tiffanies is hailed as a classic, and yet it depicts the asian neighbor (played by a white man in "yellow face") in extremely racist ways.

Quartermain predates Indy, and is the the blueprint for it. There's a B&W King's Solomon's Mines

I know. Originally, Quartermain is a series of books, that were adapted for the screen several times. But the 80's movies were inspired by the success of the Indiana Jones movies.

Tarantino's films always have some forced racist material that seem completely out of place.

The Hateful Eight...
:mjpls:

Transformers the Skids and Mudflap characters were an obvious attempted caricature of Black people.

Passion of the Christ I know it's based in long ago but the movie itself was relatively recent. Hair of wool? Doesn't sound anything like Jim Caveziel to me.

Soulman an 80s shot at affirmative action with a White character in blackface need I say more.

The Toy with Richard Pryor

It's a movie about white kids from suburbs going to inner city Chicago at night, not sure how that suppose to play out without some type some racial dynamic. Nearly every black person in the movie helped them and the main villain was white.

With the ending, it's more :sitdown: than :mjpls:


The scene with the Blues man was :dj2:

This film is aite, not sure why it was included in this thread. :manny:

The entire point of the movie is basically, "Sure, perhaps the heroes massacred a hundred Arab civilians and executed a Vietnamese POW in cold blood, but it saved American lives!!! That's what those people get for daring to have our soldiers in their own country!"




Oh hell yeah.
