Ryan Coogler & Michael B. Jordan vampire film "Sinners"

[JamesJabdi]

Intavue wid da Vampya.

That actually sounds dope.

 

[feelosofer]

I'm being sarcastic. But I like the idea.

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

I would have guessed they had it take The Batman II's spot.
Edit: NVM it would have been out just a month before the Blade film. Wouldnt have been a good idea.

As long as this isn't no super hero shyt then I will put faith in Ryan.

He delivered two of the better comic book movies in years. He's solid.

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

Yes

I was already in but now it's day one, cacs gonna be mad as hell

Turns out black people are mad .....or at least believed to be black

No

Rather black folks be the humans in this with the racist being the blood sucking vampires or at max mix in black people using african spirituality against the racist vampires

I trust Ryan and MBJ. They wouldn’t put out some BS.

I knew when they said it was going to be a 30s-40s period piece that it was going to tackle race. It's hard to do a story with Black folks in that time frame without doing so, especially set in Jim Crow south.

NGL I get it. A lot of Black projects do provide commentary or focus on race and race relations especially post Get Out. It's understandable as race plays a part in many of our lives, but people are now looking for pure escapism especially when it comes to fantasy and horror. A lot of people were disappointed to find out that "Magical Negroes" wasn't actually about a HBCU for wizards and TBH that concept does sound pretty dope. People just want to see more films where Black people are existing in our own spaces/worlds, being ourselves.

That said, I am interested in this film and I trust Coogler. Not sure if MBJ can pull off playing 2 characters but we'll see.

I really think Jonathan Majors was going to be the other brother. They were saying how they were going to work on future projects coming up during the Creed 3 press tour....and then shyt hit the fan.

In regard to MBJ I do think Coogler gets his best performances. I worry more about him doing a 1930s southern accent. shyt could kill the movie. However, it is time for him to start challenging himself as an actor.

[Neuromancer]

I could have just dealt with a magical vampire movie in modern times. Or some alternative world. I didn't need vampires vs the KKK. I'm tired of black historical trauma porn.
