The final skit about Kanye or something
no, its about what if Emmit till had apologized, its not about Kanye in particular, but ppl who feel satisfied with the "results" of the civil rights movement

Production value is straight garbage
It was barely B Movie quality. Wasted Keith David’s performance.

The writing was bad, only the first and last stories had potential along the lines of the first. They definitely tried to go with the All Lives Matter route with these stories and casting. Went totally away from the first.

the first story, bad acting, bad effects and bad execution, they stuff a lot in a short stupid story
the second, i think is the best overall, they definitely went there with it, it could have been better though
the third, if they were going to die, then they should have died from misogyny alone, not misogyny and other stupid shiet. Them hoes let them know they was gonna fukk, but when they made it into more than that, they had to kill them. Part of me want to turn it in reverse and make about gold digging hoes but whatever
the fourth one, probably went longer than necessary

the overall one took too long to pay off and the journey was worthless

It was trash, the leads were good, but the quality of film was the same as a college-level production, certainly not Netflix worthy.

Anyway, the stories were cut poorly, they felt too long between shots and pacing and took forever to get to the point. Also they added unnecessary backstory to extraneous characters.

The point of the originals were to highlight problems that plague our community w/ a a bit of nuanced horror:
Police Brutality
Industrial Prison Complex
Domestic Violence
White Supremacy in Politics

What we got here:
Bedbucking/Wenching fallout
Psychic story made no sense
#MeToo?
c00ning in Politics?

The shyt was all over the place and incoherent mess...Only watched it because Keith David always delivers.....

They had that down with the last story, but they were all over the place with him pawging, c00ning, and the ghost of E. Till able to change history at a whim and stop people in their tracks....sigh.

This also was missing a dope soundtrack...

Part 2 should have been:
Police Brutality 2
Drug Game
Gentrification
Education Failures (Corrupt School Administration)

That is what I would have focused on....

I read an interview with the writer and he said they had been trying to get a sequel made basically since the first one came out. It seems like they basically made it a “universal” :mjpls: appeal to get a studio to fund it. They would’ve been better off crowdfunding and keeping it in the same vein.

The story/writing was so bad I almost can’t believe the same team wrote/directed it. That robot at the end :dead:
