I like some of Spike's films and it's disappointing to here that he won't see the movie, I could see why he would react like this. Django Unchained deals with a touchy subject, slavery, that will probably divide audiences regardless of skin color. I wish no ill will towards Spike, I just wish that he would be a little more open to these films.

Bullshit! I myself am black and I can not wait to see this movie. I love Spike Lee and all his movies but I mean come on. I mean look at Mel Brooks "Blazing Saddles" , that movie is amazing.

There are plenty of films new and old that are related to this subject,but if he has a problem then it's his own opinion

Well, though I'm not defending Django Unchained (Cause I've not got around to catching it yet), but Spike Lee's opinion is nothing above the opinion of a unoriginal, talentless hack, oh wait, those are 1 in the same.... Spike Lee is incredibly tacky an offensive. Who gives a flying [frick] about his dumbass.

Besides, Most black people (At least here where I am), discriminate, disrespectfully I might add, against their own by calling each other [racial slur], profusely.

Sorry, I didn't read that tweet he posted till just now. Though I never majored in it, I have taken U.S. History classes since I was in goddamn Kindergarten and because my assholes of teachers were so arrogant, we never could learn about politics or government ideals, but we always managed to spend 7 months out of the year talking about how the white man is the bad guy and how we should all kill ourselves because of what our pedigree did to other races. And if there is 1 thing I've learned from all those repetitive, tedious, asinine classes, it's that most African Americans, willingly sold their own to the U.S. for money and other goods. Sure, American enslaved many, but most of them were put up for it because of their own ancestors.

God, I [frick]ing hate the U.S. cause no matter what happens, 9/11, the Timothy Mcveigh Bombing in Oklahoma, the countless massacre's, mutiple wars, internal struggles, government trying to kill us, etc., it ALWAYS circles back to Slavery? Why? No one gives a SHIT anymore! It's ludicrous and nonsensical.

Spike Lee is a racist!

He's right though...using the "N word" in dialogue is one thing but tarentino put it in the script like 500 times apart from the dialogue. It's like he thought "okay, here's my chance to type it and say it till everyone's blue in the face." Read the script, he put it in descrptions of plantations, people, and anywhere he wanted...it was excessive and unnecessary.

That was 500 years ago, we have a black president get over it!

Canon108 - 12/24/2012, 1:24 PM
I know my facts, using it as dialogue shows what the character's thinking...using it inbetween the dialogue to set up the scene for the reader comes across making tarentino look extremely racist since the inbetween pieces shows what the writer is saying...it's completely unnecessary to use the "N word" as many times as tarentino did when setting up the scene.

Canon108 - 12/24/2012, 1:27 PM
it takes the reader away from the script to the point where I thought..."jeeze, Quentin's used this word like two dozen times in the first ten pages and none of the characters have spoken yet."

Good lord Spike Lee is 2 faced, he writes most of his white characters as racist bastards and when the subject of slavery is in any other film besides his he gets his panties in a bunch. Screw that.

well as an african american male myself i felt kind of offended about his use of the n word in his movie pulp fiction (which i happen to really love( the movie that is not the use of the n word)) but lets not put him under the magnifying glass because he wont watch a movie thast he feels very personal about. I on the other hand if for no better reason than entertainment, will see the movie, and if im offended then i will get over it because while i do not like to be offended its going to happen whether its intentional or not and i think that, thats the main point,that hes not trying to offend anyone, as far as i know, and plus its a movie thats meant to be entertainign not historically accurate, but lets not bash spike lee because of his opinion and lets keep the ignorance out of the comments, we have a black president get over it? come on now.

how dare any of you disagree with this living legend. Mr Lee gave you Spiderman, X-Men, not to mention iron man. I hope he cancels all your marvel comics subscritions and.....what's that? spike Lee? oh I forgot we publish retarded articles that have nothing to do with comics and belong in whatever the newest celebrity gossip rag is. carry on.

sorry continue discussing racism as if it's a blacks only problem and as if all cultures haven't both been and had slaves and as if anyone gives a flying [frick] who did what to whose ancestors. grow a [frick]ing pair spike Lee...I'm not gay but I've been called it enough to know what it feels like to be discriminated against man up wipe off those tears and enjoy some whites only pie....you earned it after suffering all those years picking cotton from your aspirin bottles.....[frick]ing ridiculous.
