Turned it off 10 minutes in. Too offensive.


Too many N words and even the F word. The homophobic one.

And I'm neither black nor gay,so I'm not being biased or too sensitive.

The 'N' word? 'Near'? 'ni'?

1 mark deducted for not being Curse of Fenric. Insert 'The' into previous if you are Ant-Mac

Holy fail, batman.

The entire theme. of. the. movie. is making people who are racist and prejudiced look as STUPID as possible. Every single offensive word is in the movie to provide bursts of energy and attention to spotlighting the triumphs (and unfortunately still some failures) of modern society to move beyond massive ignorance and violent stupidity in the past.

If you are actually OFFENDED, then you are actually failing to comprehend the writing, the performances, the editing, the music, the props, and every element on this movie.

I'm totally serious that you should perhaps take some classes in more complex English phraseology, writing composition, satire and comedy and more.

Or you're just a giant troll. Whichever.

Perhaps you might want to go to the thicker skin store or the store that sells "set" kits do you can grow one.

You mean the truth? And how old are you to be so offended?

Well, yes, you are being way too sensitive.

Watching almost any movie more than 30 years old just brings into focus just how PC today's movies are; the characters don't swear, they don't smoke, they don't use racial insults, they don't have dirty sex, no drinking, nothing -- unless the plot specifically calls for something un-PC just to show the audience how wrong it is. Movies today are just bland and without flavor.

Made by cowards who don't even have the Hays Office as an excuse!

reply

No surprise, you are well known SJW troll. What do you think about all that Rap music with the N word?

reply

No, you are just an idiot pansy who is too stupid to understand the reasons why the words were used.

reply

Funny, Mel Brooks always said that virtually every complaint he ever got about using the N word in this movie came from white people.

I guess SJWs have been around for 40+ years, but we never had a name for them. People found Richard Pryor offensive back then, Mel Brooks was acceptable.

reply

Your loss. Must be difficult being so easily offended

Don't give up the fight for truly independent cinema!

I think the OP should try to work up a Number 6.

A "Number 6"? I'm not familiar with that one!
