I agree. I wonder what the benefit was in not going with Netflix. Netflix knows how to promote. They had me watching Jessica Jones. I am exhausted by the movie theater experience.

We differ on the Jada and Will thing. They look petty regardless of this movie. Everyone has been talking about this (Oscars so white) for years. Will said on Hollywood Reporter that racism is rare but then no Oscar and he and Jada are basically calling for a boycott. And if I have the time to comment on…

Single mom to just two kids. He acted like a darn child. He barely helped and when he did help he sulked like a child. Kate was very domineering/controlling but she had to be. She had 8 freaking kids.

I agree. I wonder if the success of Django made people more open to this. And it hurts me to give credit to Quentin but... I am so proud of Nate. This makes Jada and Will look kinda petty considering they have much more money and opportunity than this young man. I think he is modeling himself after Denzel (quiet but…

Had to google him but I love him. What white people sometimes fail to realize is that POC are looking for an entryway into the movie just like their white counterparts. And isn’t like we don’t support white actors/actresses. We just want POC to be supported as well. I remember that for a long time Molly Ringwald was…

The other thing is that Black Twitter is basically a public forum for playing the dozens. They attack because black people are always cracking or making fun of each other and others. And it is usually funny but with this particular issue it just went left. I won’t say I feel sorry for Sam Smith because I…

“Will Smith is a hypocrite. Everyone knows he would totally go if he was nominated.”

Don't do that.

He is incapable. He sucks as an actor.

Yes. Saw that interview and just shook my head.

Dash’s self hate if actually infectious threatens to ruin a whole group of people. She actually seems to hate black people. And she actually influences white people. Lohan’s hate while sad is reserved for herself.

He kinda is. Except his brand of respectability politics is being trashed early.

This so much!

Dude I think the thing that gets most POC is that if feels like the white person thought we were making it up this whole time.

My bad. All the black people I encountered that were around my age were glued to it. I was about 12 and everyone I knew, black and white knew that show. On my bus we used to have corny rap alongs to the theme and white people were rapping right along. In college my dorm floor (black and white) used to watch Cosby…

I was in a back and forth with another person. I wanted to know what makes scientology so special in regards to their anti gay stance. You still haven't answered that.

I don’t know the innerworkings of that church nor do I care. You are bringing up something that really has no bearing on this conversation. I don’t think confession is necessary. I don’t need a priest to be a mediator between me and the Lord. But again, that has nothing to do with this conversation.

I don’t like them. I was happy that Will Smith got dragged by Sam Jackson on the Hollywood Reporter’s roundtables series. But I think that people have a right to live how they want to live and people have a right to worship where they want to worship. I am a Baptist and Christianity in general tends to be ant-gay.…

All people who are catholic should be castigated according to your logic. And we know that a lot of Catholic’s, especially the gay ones, don't agree with the anti-gay teachings of their church. What makes scientology so special?

I send my kids to a catholic school. I am not catholic. I find jewish faith teachings to interesting and applicable to my life but I am not jewish. I tithe when I go to anyone's church.
