Other than Tarantino, name an A List Director who casts black people and women in major roles?

[Mike Otherz]

thats not black or a woman?

whatever you feel about dude, the fact that he is one of the only auteur superstar directors who puts african americans and women in major roles, for me, that alone makes him the director of his generation.

paul thomas anderson, wes anderson, richard linklater, alexander payne, noah baumbach. all these directors that people put on a artistic great level, you wouldnt even know anyone other than white men exist in their films, and i loves these dudes, but damn the world looks different in 2015.

 

[Alexander The Great]

name one movie that he had a Black person as the Lead, and the movie didn't any racial tones in it.

of course he's gonna cast Black people, how else would he get a pass for saying ****** 100 times a movie

 

[Jello Biafra]

 

[Mr. Pink]

Michael Mann cast Jamie Foxx as the co-lead in Collateral.

 

[DosCadenaz]

JJ Abrams

 

[Soymuscle Mike]

George Lucas

 

[MartyMcFly]

Michael Mann does but his output isn't as frequent. Michael Bay has with Will and the rock and Martin. Abrams has as someone else mentioned. I love Spielberg but he hasn't but then again he also did the color purple and did it incredibly well.

Now that doesn't mean that the other cats get no love from me because I'll always be on board for a Paul Thomas Anderson flick or Alexander Payne.

Speaking of PTA, I'm probably late as hell but I didn't know he and Mya Rudolph were married

Hes a fukking weirdo. Deep down I think he gets off on casting black people so he can call them n words to their face on screen to the love and delight of old white people.

Yeah, I caught onto Tarrantino's shtick long ago.
There's a sick fascination he has with being able to fling "ni..a" so freely in his films while exploiting black men and our virility which makes Pulp Fiction harder to watch as time goes along for me. Marsellus Wallace, throughout the film, was made out to be this alpha-male badass only to be reduced to ass bait. I just found that scene uncalled for and thought that there was a deeply insidious message in that act.

Don't recall seeing any brothas in Reservoir Dogs but there they are in the car talking that "ni..a" shyt.
He's sorta like Tim Whatley in Seinfeld turning to Judaism just to get away with Jew jokes.
Nah, I ain't feelin' this guy.

Martin Scorsese is on that N-Word quota tip too.

No. He does that to add realism to his movies. His signature style is realistic dialogue.

Throughout my life, I have heard many whites and Hispanics drop words like that when black people aren't around, or even immediately after a black person leaves the room.

There is nothing realistic about his dialogue. His signature style is the same as aaron sorkins. People dont talk like that in real life but its their quirky style of dialogue.

People dont go on rants about dead n word storages.

[BonafideDefacto]

George Lucus wins cause his movies are bigger than anyone else's. I think hes the type to fukk up a movie by casting a black person in a rile where we shouldn't be and makes no sense. But oh well, long as we eating
