  LOL - Dear ng, you just don't get it, do you? For starters, I'm not a dude. Second of all, I meant the kind of cookie that would soothe your nerves in a massive way, cause, man, you are wired! LOL! Let me attempt to explain this to you plainly in words that you can understand - If a movie is being made about a particular topic (in this case, buffalo soldiers, mystery plot in a small town in Italy during World War II), the director can't very well start talking about Korean convenience stores in black neighboorhoods, Sarah Palin, George Bush, the Iran-contra affair, abortion, gang bangers, the last episode of Survivor and what's in your kitchen sink! It's a little thing called FOCUS. You know, when you stick to a specific PLOT to tell a STORY that one can follow? Like when you read the page of a book and actually manage to UNDERSTAND what the writer is trying to say? That's what filmakers are supposed to do, you know? Tell a story and engage the viewer? I think you're just being acrimonious towards Spike Lee and maybe even towards blacks in general and you're bringing that BAGGAGE into your crap 'movie review'. What you're objecting to is not the movie but the very idea that any kind of discrimination towards african-americans would be being depicted on screen, especially coming from Spike Lee. That makes for a biased and in my opinion, invalid critic. You don't go see a Woody Allen movie if you hate neurotic characters. In the same fashion, you don't see a movie done by a black director if you don't want to hear another point of view or if you don't want to learn something new. You go see the latest Borat (which I'm sure would be more in line with your tastes. If we're to follow your logic, no one should ever make movies about any disturbing topics, however factual, for fear of being accused of playing the victim. Hey, I guess the holocaust didn't happen. I guess the internment of the japanese during World War II didn't happen. I guess Vietnam didn't happen either, I guess there are no genocides except on TV. Let's all go watch Wayne's World! I mean, there have NEVER EVER been critically acclaimed movies that didn't do well in the box office, right? So if it only lasted three weeks and Dum and dummer stayed on screen for 15 weeks, that says it all. LOL... Anyway, this concludes our friendly exchange here. I've come to the conclusion that there's no point trying to engage in dialogue with someone who has been lobotomized LOL! Good luck to you!
(8/10)
