The ones in denial will skip right over this, but that movie really was some slave depiction shyt.

There's a reason all the white people bytching about the black lead character shut their mouths when they finally saw the movie. "He's non threatening and weak, I like him".

Except for the FiyaStarter Podcast, All of the black podcasts I listen to NEVER talked about how bad this looked when they discussed or reviewed the movie last year.

I read this thread last year. I watched the Tariq podcast and didn't watch the movie until 2 weeks ago because of it. However, I thought the "slave" angle was grossly overplayed. I didn't think he was very strong but I didn't find him annoying or overly simping. Just a dude trying to get the girl but awkwardly. I absolutely hated the scene where dude gives him his nickname though. I thought it was a good movie.

Is it actually a decent movie?

IMHO 4th best SW movie, easy. Arguably up there with ROTJ. Too much comedy, but besides that, it's dark like ESB

If it ain't the first 6 movies I don't count them anymore.
