Me and Tariq Nasheed would disagree with you and I'll just leave it at that.



I'm looking at you funny because we both agree that Zoe playing the role is no big deal but the fact that you keep defending IronMan wearing Blackface makes me look at u a funny. If u are white then I understand because white people usually dont see the disrespect in such an action when its covered in something such as comedy....But if you are a Black person then :snoop: shame shame shame
But you'd both be wrong then.

And you even admitted you didn't watch the movie, even more reason for you to not be able to speak on it or its context.

Just admit you're wrong dog how hard is that???

I'm not defending him with a shield and sword, I'm saying pointing out that he did black face in a movie where even the actors point it out is foolish. That'd be like trying to roast Kevin heart because he's short but even he roast himself because he's short, see how silly that sounds?

I don't know how that even calls my ethnicity into question. You act as though I stood up and gave amos a round of applause after their act smhm

:what:


:snoop:

...when did I admit that I never watched the movie?? Dude....I have the freaking DVD, what the hell is wrong with you.


I'll meet you at the Fulton Mall right now and buy you 10 bucks worth of Mcdonalds if u can point out me saying I never saw the movie.


And u are white too.....Your the second white person who has defended Ironman wearing Blackface...Go figure.

Your ethnicity comes into play because no Blackman should be defending a whiteman wearing Blackface, I dont care if its in the form of comedy...U shouldnt be caping for that like u have. You been defending Ironman wearing Blackface for 4 hours. LOL


But if u are white then it makes sense as to why u would be defending him because most white people feel entitled to defend other whites who insult other ethnicities in a sideways manner like comedy.

Well no actually....There was a small uproar around the time the movie came out because of Iron Mans comeback in the game and how it was a badlook to do that right after his comeback. But that uproar was small and slowly swept under the rug never to be brought up again.

I'm kinda looking at you a lil funny for actually defending it.
Two things...

This is now the SECOND time on this website you've tried to do this fake flexxing shyt where someone points out that you're wrong and you're trying to "meet up with them" to somehow flex some more or argue just how wrong you are in person, which makes me kind of wonder the type of person you are since I'm not even the first person you've done this shyt with on this board alone.

Second of all...I interpreted the "no actually" as you saying did'nt see the movie, and if that's not what you meant, cool but based on the fact that you're STILL arguing the point I really REALLY doubt you've watched this movie. That's why everyone is laughing at you or dismissing your views in this thread because it's not based in reality, because the reality is, RDJ's portrayal in that movie was not the "blackface" that you're attempting to allude to. If you really watched that movie you'd understand that.

You are more or less standing under a cloudless sky and telling a group of people that the sky is green when it is most definitely blue.

You've been rambling about this shyt for like 3 pages now and you're wrong...get a grip dude

Dude..I get it. You are defending a whiteman wearing Blackface. I got you. No need to keep repeating yaself.



Yeah you misudnerstood what I meant by "No actually".......I was refering to how dude said no one made noise about Iron Man wearing Blackface and I corrected him. And I dont do flexing...I build....You live in BK and I work by the Fulton Mall.......Flexing would be talking greasy as if I wanna meet u to fight or some nonsense. Thats childish. I give u the invite to feed you and you flip it on some bullsh*t. I've given the invite to numerous cats and we got together to build on some real sh*t(most cats dont take the invite but a few have)...u cant relate because thats just not in you....... I gave you the invite twice and now u respond with bullsh*t...I tell u what homie.I'll never offer to feed u ever again, I promise.

online militants are the worst cuz they huff and puff online about this and that but in my neighborhood I see nothing but old ladies volunteering for pantry and clothing giveaways at the church...I hardly see young heads help feed and clothe the poor...There might b a few but usually its dominated by old ladies volunteering for the task. You know why I never see any of these online militants in the hood volunteering to help feed and clothe the poor? Becuase they too busy online huffing and puffing leaving old ladies to do the job that they hype up.

Zoe is miscast.

There's nothing militant about pointing that out.

I know she's black and think anyone saying she's biracial is crazy she's just not right for the role.

Tons of other actresses who could have played this or other women.

India Arie would have been perfect. Or Lauryn Hill.

You know whats funny tho...Back in the day when Eddie Murphy was rumored to play Richard Pryor in his movie bio.....A few people said he'd be perfect, they'd just have to lighten his face. I'll never forget that. They said Eddie would be perfect because we all knew he could have possibly pulled it off properly. If u recall in the Jackson movie Terrence Howard played Jackie Jackson....it stood out at the time but in the end he pulled the role off. So when I see an uproar about Zoe taking this role I only see it as being petty.
