He's spot on.

He's trying his best to stamp out the n-word criticism before his film drops. So far its working but Im not buying it :manny: Lucas turned pro Black too when his Flying Negro film came out also.

What Tarantino's saying is about 10000 times more important than why he's saying it. Let's focus on what's important.

I would if his timing wasnt so damn convenient :manny:

how can white characters using the word the ****** be nothing less than historically accurate.

Had this been made by anyone else but Tarantino it wouldnt matter but he always seems to crowbar ****** in his movies. I hate to bring Spike Lee up but he said it best:
I will say it again and again. I have a definite problem with Quentin Tarantino’s excessive use of the n-word. And let the record show that I never said that he can not use that word-I’ve used that word in many of my films-but I think something is wrong with him. You look at Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs and even that thing with Christian Slater, True Romance. It’s just the n-word, the n-word, the n-word. He says he grew up on Blaxploitation films and that they were his favorite films but he has to realize that those films do not speak to the breadth of the entire African-American experience. I mean the guy’s just stupid. [Tarantino] said he and Ricki Lake were the two most revered white celebrities among the black community. Where did he get that from? Because Sam Jackson kisses his butt, that means black people love him? That’s wrong. I am not the only African-American in this world who has a problem with this excessive use of the n-word.”

QT exposes the racism in whites in his movies, ya'll get mad but this is how whites talk among themselves and how a lot of them feel behind close doors QT imo just shows how ignorant some of them are.

Small minds can't grasp this...they rather complain that he used the word, rather than the fact that most of QT characters that do it are the scum of the earth or people associated with negative elements of society. Character can bust his guns. Sell dope. fukk whores.

BUT LAWD LAWD IF HE SAYS ****** :whew:

It's shyt like this that gives credence to those who say HL is filled with trolls and children.

He exposes the racism of white folks, but the excessive use of a derogatory and insulting term gets more exposure!Do the knowledge..
He is an auteur, an artist and has his motives! QT admires the black experience in America..

Im able to buy into a murderer being a bad guy without him having to use "******". I believe most ppl are.


I understand why people are coppin pleas for this film just not for Tarantino considering his past movies. He's not looking to send a message....none of his films were made to send messages. I just happen to believe that art can sometimes be respectful. Maybe Tarantino cant pull that off:yeshrug:

Spike Lee is one of the problems himself. Just because he hasn't had a hit in 20 years he wants to $#!t on Tyler Perry. I might not like the movies that Perry makes, but hes putting in more work than 99% of other "film makers" out there. Same thing with Cornell West. He wants to talk about "black issues", but has no answers. Instead he bashes on the President who deals with more real shyt in one day than he has his whole career. If the old heads want to instill something into the new generation, learn how to talk to them. The younger kids don't care about a old mans EGO, whatever spark that Lee and West had has gone down the drain. Big up Tarantino

Exactly. White people say racist shyt amongst themselves all the fukkin time. And he's not the first filmmaker to address this. Scorsese did it before him and so does Spike Lee when he writes dialogue for white characters (especially Italians) and its accurate cuz he's being truthful.

I don't know why these idiots don't get that? When has QT ever made some up lifting shyt? He's always been enthralled by the psyche of society's miscreants.


Too many trolls in this The Coli now.
