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

[Sterling Archer]

yeah nobody would say shyt if they didnt know he wasnt american in the first place.

You right. No one would say shyt if a foreigner portrayed a black historical civil rights leader because no one said shyt about a fictitious character on a tv show being played by one.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Dude is very talented but I honestly wasn't feeling the performance.

The accent made it difficult to understand the dialogue at times

You weren’t feeling it because it wasn’t a good performance. Accent not withstanding.

 

[Sterling Archer]

is he worse than MJB?

Yes
I was shocked by how bad he is.

Living- Busy asf. I relocated, busy with work, was sick for a bit, dealing with family issues, been volunteering legal work etc etc. writing articles and what not. I pop in and pop out whenever time permits. Reserving my energy for shyt that matters.

100 posts since Friday says otherwise.

He was so bad that I had to put on closed caption.

Dude literally sounds like a black brit trying to sound like an american black man. The accent is fake as hell

He sounds like Robert Downey Jr in Tropic Thunder

That's equivalent to mocking, truth be told. Calling somebody a god is borderline. Those our really names reserved for the Elect. But calling a man from our nation, who they were trying to kill, and actually succeeded without being charged and convicted, our God/Yahawah or our Messiah/Yahawashi, is really disgraceful to hear, especially once you wake up to the truth.

I remember my very first IT job, when I was the only Black IT person in this small company. They had three servers, with the main server named God. I knew I was wrong for going along with calling a computer server God, but I was scared for my job. A month later I was let go. The reason was, "It's just not working out". Sound familiar? And no, Yahawah didn't give me a break for being scared for my job. I clearly failed that test. We have to watch how we use the name of the Most High, and the Son, especially us.

Thus why Jew edgar hoover called fred Hampton 'black messiah'

I respect it. Hope I didn't talk shyt about him.

I could think of tons of black AA actors that could have hit this out the park. Or maybe pick out an actor from Chicago or the Midwest.

Derek Luke
Leon Robinson
Michael Jai White

The guys you just listed are in their 50s. You do realize Fred Hampton was 21 when he was killed, right?

Saw the movie Sunday, there was legit no more than 5 people in the theaters including me

anyways movie should have been split into two parts.

Movie didn’t showcase what the black panthers and Hampton did for the community enough.

Movie focused too much on dude being an informant. But at that time the police and feds had so much power they could make shyt up just to go out guns blazing on the black panthers.

You can kill a revolutionary but can’t kill a revolution.

I hope this movie inspired many to go out there and really do their research and not be someone of inaction but action in this fight.

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

You are crazy lmao

 

[Germms]

LaKeith Stanfield saved this movie.

 

[ReturnOfJudah]

Movie was all about the snitch
