Daniel Kaluuya's accent in this Fred Hampton movie bothers me...

[Swagnificent]

I wasn’t worth the explanation truthfully

You weren't. But it did make you look stupid for suggesting my screen name somehow made me unworthy of being taken seriously. Check my resume. I'm the leading authority on black knowledge and history on this site. Even screen names are something I don't take lightly. I think consciously about them. But I also put some mystery in it so fools who ain't that conscious like yourself but pretend to be can fall into it like a trap.

John David Washington is literally one of the WORST actors in Hollywood at the moment bar none

is he worse than MJB?

Dude made this skit then proceeded to hire British actors

Exactly.

Forget the accent. He looks nothing like Fred Hampton.

Its an insult to my eyes to even look at him trying to potray that man.

How you felt about Denzel playing Malcolm then they look nothing alike.

Maannn fukk Lebron

But yea these nikkas is nitpicking Lil shyt Which black actor looks like Fred Hampton? And is that actor better suited than Daniel?

Did Will look exactly like Ali? Does Jamie Fox look exactly like Tyson? The accent really ain’t a big deal.

It was hard to understand at times however alot of you nikkas in here clearly don't know that Fred Hampton didn't have a Chicago accent

In my opinion?...Probably

Denzel is so good as an actor that he made himself believable as Malcolm X eventhough they didn't look alike. This nikka ain't on that level as an actor which is why he ain't right for this role.

Hollywood don’t give a fukk they only care about the box office draw

He was born in raised in Maywood. He sounded like a typical Westside nikka.

No he didn't

 

[EBK String]

No he didn't

Love the crying in here "BUT BUT BUT he's not American!!!"

People were blown away when they heard Idris Elba talking in his natural accent because that man took his performance seriously. That man BECAME Stringer bell. I literally can't imagine anyone else playing that character.

As good as Daniel is, he just might not have it. If he was younger, I would've liked to see what JD Washington could do in the role.

Meh, I've heard Idris' accent come through in other movies. No biggie.
