Welcome To aBlackWeb

I'm bout 40 mins in. Digging it so far.

It's weird when they do flashbacks and all them niggas still old af with chadwick boseman 30 yrs younger than them lol

That was another thing! Yall couldn't even use prosthetics to make them younver if yall didn't want to cast younger actors?

This movie pissed me off for real.

I can stall it out as a stylistic choice....

Like they're remembering norm as he was as they are....if that makes sense. Still maybe woulda liked to see some young actors play the young versions of them and they switch back and forth. But it's spike's movie not mine
:js4:
 
...ight i guess imma be that guy.

The movie was trash man.


Like the story was cool. It had potential. But a lot of the scenes just didn't make sense.

Like the fact that the one homie got blew up...they just left bruh there....but then had a whole montage about a funeral for Norman. They just said forget Eddie huh?

Then the Vietnamese troop picked up a shell...looked at it...then said 1 guy walked in a direction he didn't even look and the others drove away. Bruh...

Then Paul went from the right hand man of basically a 18 year old Panther to a Trump supporter? I guess that was the PTSD tho.

Then Paul storms off...falls down a hill...and the gold gets stuck on a branch as he's rolling...but somehow it's magically 20ft in the air? Lol....

I just didn't really care for this one man.
None of that makes it a bad movie tho.

Its a very good movie

I think everyone agrees not using younger actors for the flashbacks was a horrible mistake
 
It wasnt that good but it had its moments

Best ive seen from spike in a while

Imma just buy Gabis take on why they didnt even cover their grey hair for flashback scenes of 1968... bcuz that was dumb

Spike was experimenting with something that may have sounded good and looked good on paper but it didn't look right on film. Poor execution on the flashbacks
 
They honestly coulda ended the movie with paul gettin sent to glory. The last 20 mins or so was unnecessary but spike been doin them montages and shit at the end of his movies for a while now. Comes with the territory at this point.

Solid movie. If hollywood is still a thing next year, delroy lindo need to recognized for something for this cuz he played the shit out that role. That man was acting.
 
Yall missing the point lol. I'm not saying they was supposed to carry his bloody carcass around. But why were they so married to getting the gold and Norm's bones bones for an proper burial all movie only to end up leaving him and no on screen funeral for Eddie to happen? Lol bruh...the movie was not good man.

Norms bones gave them access. There was sentiment there but in their heart of hearts did they really give af about getting that niggas bones? It got them goverment clearance to the gold. I guess they could have buried him and had a funeral service for him on screen (that no one was asking for) but they had to leave him cause it would have created more questions than a simple "he didn't want to come back".

You missed the point lol. All them niggas had different motivations for even being there.

Fixed



Probably thee performance of his career... he encapsulated what a black Trump supporting military vet would look and behave like



Funnily enough there was an ode to Apocalypse Now earlier in the movie... Lindo was close to Brando's maniacal state

You could be unto a spoiler with that ...



But I'm guessing with the huge sums Netflix spent on The Irishman in terms of deaging actors (I saw Gemini Man too again last night...) ... they passed on that aspect
