how did he get all those actually good black actors to agree to this........
i love spike lee and most of the actors film but im petrified to go anywhere near this movie 2bh fa'am
Spike Lee is pretty much the only black director anyone can name. The actors would agree to it just to attach their names to that prestige.
A better question is why someone more talented than Lee hasn't taken his spot.

Steve McQueen, Justin Simien, Ava DuVernay

because talented directors don't let politicized rhetoric get in the way of a movie that they actually want to make.
>>64326971
Steve McQueen

One of the dumbest fucking concepts for a movie of all time
And I realize it's adapted on some old play
Fucking retarded

SPIKE LEE'S NAME HAS PULL AMONG BLACK CELEBRITIES.
IF YOU'RE A BLACK ACTOR/ACTRESS YOU DO WHAT HE SAYS WHEN HE SAYS.

never heard of Steve mcQueen & posting here on /tv/? GTFO pls
Actually a lot of black women are pissed off with some of the messages in this film and want him to be boycotted.
>>64328359
No I sure haven't.
terrible film, but a great joint
>mfw lead actress is dawn from mad men
>>64328473
Explain? You'd think they'd like a movie that "gives" them power
>>64329095
The movie is saying that men only want them for their pussy
>>64327081

>>64327732
Wtf are you retarded? Why are people with this little knowledge of film allowed to be here
>>64329207
Cuz on Reddit thats ok
>>64327055
> he's British
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Spike Lee is the biggest hack of all time, he's also a nig, of course all the other nigs will follow him.
>>64329135
But that's false. Even after the strike happened the guys still loved them, they just wanted them to stop the strike. The movie sucked but that complaint is just retarded.
>>64329207
they're proving a point, that no normie would know who they are, only snobs. Normies do know Spike Lee though, especially the nigs.

Not all of those actors were good.
In fact, some of them were downright awful.
Going just from the poster: Jennifer Hudson?
Get real.
Even the best actor, John Cusack, isn't black.
Really, this kind of post makes me wonder:
Shill or just underinformed?

well the problem is that you guys are total plebs obv
>>64326971
Steve McQueen is far better than Spike Lee
After Dope, I'm watching Rick Famuyiwa pretty closely. I bet he has a lot of good stuff up his sleeve.
>>64326050
Setting Lysistrata in modern American gangland is actually a pretty great idea
I don't know if I'll see Chi-Raq, but it's certainly gonna be a breath of fresh air
>>64329095
I'm sure Spike Lee probably intended it to be empowering to black women.
But some activists (many black, but not all) argue that the premise of Lysistrata reduces women to their sexual function. They'd prefer women stop violence through diplomacy rather than with-holding sex.
>>64327606
yeah, like the niggers wouldn't just gang rape them if they weren't putting out. so, spike lee really is a delusional nigger who can't grasp the fact that his people are savage animals
>>64327056
Old is doing it a disservice.
Angels in America is an old play.
The Taming of the Shrew is an old play.
This shit was written on clay tablets and papyrus. It's a comedy, of all things, that survived more than two millennia. That still holds relevance, by lit majors, in today's society.
>>64327034

Which just underscores the fact that leftist activists of any color have no sense of satire, ancient literature, or irony.
