trillaI'm not talking about the quality of the film; that is one thing. I'm talking about people's emotional reaction to the success of it and a***yzing the root of their contempt for that success. That is the big issue in all of this. There is too much proof that certain people's disapproval of the films' success goes far beyond the quality of the film. We are way past that.
I think some of that is jumping to conclusions but my tl on twitter loved it and most here loved it . I don’t seek out people that outright hate it . Some say it’s overrated but that always happens

I wouldn't call it a masterpiece but I ain't gon hold you.. it do feel like a generational classic that will get those re-runs on TNT/TBS until we old and grey.

Jan 30trillaI alluded to this a bit in my previous post about this film, but there are Black people (on this forum along with Twitter, etc.) who consider themselves film experts who have only been taught that only films by white or Japanese directors are to be artistically celebrated and put on a pedestal. These are Black people who can tell you every European director or movement in the history of film but don’t know the contributions Black directors like Oscar Micheaux, Ousmane Sembène, Djibril Diop Mambéty, Julie Dash, Haile Gerima etc. have made. Most of their images of Black directors and Black films in general start with Spike Lee (good) and end with Tyler Perry (bad). There is no room for nuance in the role Black directors have played in the history of film, which has been very significant for many reasons.

@Brave if you got an issue with me stop the passive aggressive b**** s*** . I been in the blade thread hyped and many pieces of black art . Yet you constantly slandering . I care about those with disabilities that’s it . I said the man apology was weak . I said he put himself in a situation to harm others . Give it a rest
Regardless of the awards decided by white institutions the movie is a win
