Dave became this mythical figure after turning down the 50 million from comedy central, so after that incident he gets a pass for some things other black celebrities would get a side eye

Funny cause now he the dude he was trying to avoid being by turning down the 50 million.

Ang Lee's Hulk was not only a top 5 Marvel movie, but Eric Bana's performance as Bruce Banner was the best portrayal of the character.

My top 5 Marvel movies by the way

Iron Man
Black Panther
The Avengers
Hulk
Ant Man and The Wasp

None of these new serialized, multi-storyline, detailed oriented shows are touching Alias S1-3

True Detective S2 is a pretty good show. It would seen way differently if it wasn't compared to S1 and was a mini-series on its own.
I’m pretty rough on that season, but I do remember it still being better than majority of the shows on other networks at the time. Shame it had to live in S1’s shadow and be rushed out.

I always see Pine Barrens worshipped as the best Sopranos episode ever. Always thought it was the most overrated ep of the show. Not even in my Top 10.

The allure of that episode comes from its comedic moments, but mostly the tension of not knowing what happens next. Once that suspense wears off after initial viewing, it has nowhere near the depth of the other finer episodes.

The Dark Knight Rises is probably the best of the series and doesnt deserve its hatred

Had to fight my urge to neg you:russ:. I hate that movie with a passion. What’s funny is that the perception of this movie has done a 180. When I watched the movie in theaters, I was one of the only people like :hhh:. Then slowly it seemed like everyone started to come my way. I just got into an argument about it last week

Dave Chappelle gets treated like some comedic genius and some social commentary savant but his show didn't really do anything but play on racial stereotypes and if you take out the gay, trans, and poor white people jokes in his stand ups you end up with one joke about OJ and 2 and a half hours of silence. He did a 20 minute set about how he wasn't being paid for networks showing episodes of Chappelle show and somehow people treated this as some egregious thing instead of something that happens to virtually every person that every signed a contract and worked on any television show.

Martin Scorsese made the same movie 4 times ( goodfellas, casino, the irish man, the departed ). He just made it from a different characters point of view each time.

So many directors rely on cinematography to carry them nowadays. Dune will be a perfect example of this. Movie will be visually beautiful. Dialog, story, and acting will be bland. Sidenote, but Dennis Villanueva is a great example of a directory who gets carried by cinematography, Sicario withstanding.

Zach Snyder is an all time WOAT director. Him having any type of success in hollywood just goes to show you how good it is to be white in entertainment.

Only Seasons 1 and 3 of The Wire are actually THAT great.
I really don’t like the evolution of Dave. I’m not an SJW so I wasn’t mad at the sticks and stones shyt, I just wish it was a little funnier. I hated that shyt he did about not getting paid at Comedy Central. I thought he sounded ridiculous and people ate it up. And I love Dave but that shyt was corny. Bro tried to paint a picture that he was taken advantage of. By the time he had that Comedy Central deal he had already been in multiple movies. That “I was a young man with a child” Bs was hard to watch

Don't get me started on Dave Chappelle...

If I said "do you think dave chappelle is a c00n" people would emphatically answer NO

But if I said is a black man who....

Is married to a woman who isn't black...

Made a show stereotyping black people and making fun of black celebrities...

Literally opened his mouth to say "let's give donald trump a chance"

Is close friends with Kanye West, a man who literally said slavery was a choice, and Joe Rogan, a man who does a 3 hours worth of coded white supramacy language and is on camera literally jumping out of his seat yelling YES when Trump won Texas during the election...

Could have lived anywhere in the world and choose to live in fukking Ohio...

People would say...?

Funny cause now he the dude he was trying to avoid being by turning down the 50 million.

I still fukk with Dave but you're really not lying :hubie:
