Spike Lee Goes in: "Django is disrespectful to my ancestors".....

what happened to the sequel to inside man?
I'm convinced Spike getting at Eastwood got him on the Hollywood Blacklist, if he wasn't on it already.
Oh well, he always thought outside the box, anyway.
Once upon a time Spike and QT were cool. But, the usage of the N word in Jackie Brown (one of the GOAT flicks) put a wedge between them.
This rift is like a recurring theme

While I think Jamie Fox is a koon(possibly homosexual too) and Kerry Washington is an whitewashed house negress the ex slave hero implementing revenge on slave holding whiteys whle attempting to rescue his wife inarratives intriguing. enough for me to give this flick a chance..I wonder is Tarinteno was inspired by the "Catcher Freemon" episode of the "Boondocks" for this film....As for Spike...Isn't this the same guy whom made koontastic films such as "Bambooled," "Jungle Fever,"and "School Daze"? He shouldn't throw stones while living in a glass house.
Domestic Total Gross: $49,876,377
Distributor: Fox Release Date: January 20, 2012
Genre: Action / Adventure Runtime: 2 hrs. 0 min.
MPAA Rating: PG-13 Production Budget: $58 million
The Film lost about 9 million, which is a pocket change for George Lucas.
BTW, this was for a film that was boderline trash. Imagine if the film was actually decent..
It made $13 million in DVD sales. So it's actually 3 million in the black - not to mention every sale or airing from this point forward is money generated.

Have you heard of Development Hell? Tons of movies are in the process now that you haven't heard of. Lucas has been trying to get it made for 23 years:
Lucas salutes Tuskegee Airmen with 'Red Tails'
Lucas da GAWD and his FABW (That's fine ass black woman for you c00ns out there....)
Salute
moral of the story is, get your money up, make your own movies.
If you gotta go get some white dollars to get your movies made, what do you expect.
It's 2013, nikkaz still wanna play the victim.
OH, QT did this, OH hollywood won't let us do this, OH they won't nominate non of the black actors
so fukking what, either nikkaz gonna get they money up make their own rules, or we never gonna get respect period.

Looking through this thread I'm convinced that dudes don't either know what a c00n is or they're intentionally using the word incorrectly.

Honestly, I don't want to watch a black horror movie about slavery, I get that it's sad and horrific , but I want to see something that I can watch and feel proud, ain't nothing empowering about seeing a bunch of niccas take L's in the field.
That's the reason why I never liked the passion and for colored girls and the color purple, yeah it was accurate but that shyt is depressing as hell, I'm tired of seeing black folks all fukked up in movies, I'd rather see something like hidden colors or catcher freeman. I don't want to leave the movie theater all sad and shyt, I want to leave it feeling better with my first in the air. I don't care if its inaccurate or slapstict, I want to see a black man stick it to the system, catch a few bodies and win. That doesn't make me a c00n.

The script was done by Spike but supposedly it's in developmental hell. Denzel said he's ready to do it anytime which is amazing cause Denzel has never done a Sequel in his entire history. One positive thing to me that has come out of Spike comments is that he called Slavery "The Holocaust". There have been congress men and I've actually been around White People that have said, "Blacks need to get over Slavery". Would someone every tell a Jewish Person to "Get over the Holocaust". Hell No. It's time for Blacks and Whites to stop hiding behind America Holocaust.
We got our Freedom from Lincoln and was still fighting through the Civil Rights movement almost 100 years later. The Horrors of Slavery was a Holocaust, even worst cause the Holocaust was a certain time period and it stopped. Slavery lasted 100's of years. Honestly, I've agreed with Spike on all his criticism. Tyler's movies are c00nery, Clint was wrong to no include Black Soldiers in his wars movies and Yes QT is way to obsessed with the "N-word". But people will try to put it back on Spike, call him a hater, bitter and even a racist. Spike Predicted a lot of this ish on "Bambozzled". Tavis Smily just went in on Django too:

Hollywood djust (the 'd' is silent) won't do an authentic film about the holocaust of slavery.

Controversy Sells it's got a lot of competition on "Christmas Day" and The market is to crowded with "The Hobbit, Jack Reacher, This is 40, Les M." there is so much selection. Some Black people will skip cause it's a Slave movie, Some white people will skip cause Whites are getting killed. The biggest thing going for it is QT and the Cast. So it has a chance to do well since there is some hype
