black and guidette relationships

Gotcha. Thanks for the explanation, Ra ;-}

The sad thing is I actually think the Jersey Shore types think how they're acting is THE coolest way to be/act/dress/speak ever on planet earth.

I'd like to plunk them down in the middle of some backwoods town in China and see how fast they drop that front.

Sadly I suspect they wouldn't drop the front....

Remember that Spike Lee flick about the Buffalo Soldiers in Italy? I liked it because one of them dated a Italian woman.

one of them? lol That was one of the worst crew of soldiers I had ever seen in a movie. How are you going to have sex with a girl that your friend wants? That just being an A-hole.


miracle at st anne, I believe. Also, the movie was a let down. I expected better from spike. I still didn't understand why the dude shot the german at the beginning.

he shot the guy because he was a german infilitrator in the Italian partisans, which led to false intel and the killing of practically everyone.

it raises a strong moral question from the beginning, with relation to what happens in a time of war, and whether or not those emotions carry on in peace time. Like befriending a north vietnamese soldier in the 21st century.

it wasn't the best war movie, but it was good for what it was: a somewhat historical depiction of a black infantry unit in ww2. Blacks aren't really represented during that time period, and Spike just tried to put us out there as a part of 'the greatest generation.':smt109

what didn't you like about it?

were you expecting something like Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers?

spike tried to throw multiple genres into one film, that's all.

It was part war movie, part adventure, part drama, part romance, etc. Saving Private Ryan had no romance or comedy, and just focused on real gritty battles. Maybe that's what made it do so well. That and the fact that Spielberg is a legend.:mrgreen:

I am comparing this movie with the band of brothers since I do not remember much from saving private ryan. Any how, what I didn't like is the way he portrayed some of the soldiers. You got one that believes in nonsense. You got another that besides knowing his friend was going after a girl this guy does her any way. That just didn't sit right with me.

I think if you want to make a drama movie, adding large comedy segments in it will not help.

Arch is trippin.

That movie is one of my favorite films of all time.

Classic Spike.
 
That is true POJ. I never watch WWII movies since it appears that the White men saved the world without help. The Black WWII soldier faced two fronts:White men domestic and foreign(German) or Asian(Japanese). It took more than 60+ years for some to get the Congressional Medal of Honor. I'm glad Lee made the effort in making this movie. If a White director made the movie about say The Tuskegee Airman they better make the racial prejudice against them raw with no sugarcoating.

they released a movie about them a while back, but Lucas was looking to revive the fabled unit. from what I recall in the original film, the brothas got shitted on until they started saving their white brothers during furballs with the Luftwaffe.

If Lucas follows through with the revamp, ill be the first in line to see it. But like you said, he better not sugarcoat the racism because that's what makes the story so epic. Not only did these guys master the art of flying, they also mastered themselves and their mental toughness.
