They just had to pimp the race sht with the cook, huh?
Not to mention making Roosevelt look like a miracle-working hero, rather than the authoritarian leech he really was.
Typical lefty propaganda.

Well you just made yourself look like the same sort of dumbass you model yourself after in name and avatar.
That "cook" is a real life historical figure.

Who said he wasn't real, dumbass?
shareHalfway agree with you about them making FDR a miracle working hero, especially standing on his own. Shame he was so popular with the common American, eh, only winning 4 elections by huge majorities.
Do you hate me because I have no avatar? Do you even give a damn?
I know it's an old thread, but I wanted to point out that the objection to Roosevelt standing on his own was misplaced:
For a time, Franklin Roosevelt was resigned to being a victim of polio, believing his political career to be over. But Eleanor Roosevelt and political confidante Louis Howe encouraged him to continue on. Over the next several years, Roosevelt worked to improve his physical and political image. He taught himself to walk short distances in his braces and was careful not to be seen in public using his wheelchair.
Could you be a little more specific for a change? How is it "pimping the race *beep* to show the historically based heroism of a black man?
Or do you just react this way every time you see a black man that isn't an embarrassing caricature?
I can't help but feel sorry for people like you, so full of hate that they can't even see how ridiculous they are.
Janet! Donkeys!
Those aren't the reasons this is a terrible movie. And you sound like a balloon full of hot air.
shareFack you dude - your President is black, make peace with it.
If you want an all-white old boys club, join the Republican party and the bunch of hypocritical, reality-denying buffoons they intent to present as presidential candidates.

Dore Miller was one of the few real figures portrayed in this movie. Look him up. He engaged in an act of heroism when blacks still segregated in the military. Educate yourself, he was a hero that day, rewarded with the medal of honor then sent back to mess duty.
shareSpeaking of "educating yourself"
While I agree with you regarding the idiot you are responding to... You don't do yourself any favors when telling someone to educate themselves and then post utter BS yourself.
I'll assume that "Dore" was a typo and you meant Dorie...
But your:
Educate yourself, he was a hero that day, rewarded with the medal of honor then sent back to mess duty.
So a typo and the wrong awarded honor discount my points? Its an imdb post, not a dissertation. Maybe you should try not being so superficial.
shareIts not being superficial.
There is a world of difference between a Navy Cross and the Medal of Honor.
If you tell someone to educate themselves, and then you go and prove your own lack thereof, expect to get called on it.

typical reply from the coward pretending to be a navy vet, perhaps you should stop lying to everyone on here you piece of *beep*

Says the sockpuppet account of a troll who's sole purpose is harassing me.

i'm no sock puppet of one of the many people on here who hate you, I just have utter contempt for cowardly little trolls like you who offer nothing to these MOVIE boards, do you see the key word there, MOVIE, try offering an opinion on the movie for a change, you know, screenplay, acting, script, direction, special effects, costume, score but no all you do is insult people by ripping technical info from wiki.
you have no place on IMDB, you offer nothing other than a smug arrogant know-it-all attitude, go and infest a military chat room and leave the movies for actual fans.
so good bye little troll boy, i'm getting bored of owning you
On the subject of education. It's actually "whose"
My point being that he was awarded an honorable recognition by the US military. Honestly it does not matter which branch offered which award. Completely insignificant for my point but keep being a clown. You seem to enjoy it.
