OPINION Why do wypipo have the exclusive rights to glorifying gangsta movie without judgement?

Anything that shows Blacks together, organized, defiant to be subservient is a threat. They fear that we will recognize our power and influence, and pose a problem.

Even though Black Panther is fictional you have kids, grown ups seeing Blacks function and thrive together, changing the world. Then you have Cacs that protested the movie for its violence and ungodly message. Where were y'all during all 50 shades of Grey, Thor, Ironman 1-3, Insidious, The Conjuring?

But you just happen to find that Black Panther sends a sinister message... Ok

Bruh... After Menace II Society came out, jacking niggas for their rides by hoping out of vans became the shit to do. In fact, the rise in carjacking's in general can prolly be traced right to this movie.
After Menace, everybody was trying to get their hands on a Desert Eagle like O-Dog had.
After Colors, niggas across the country that had never stepped foot in south central LA were claiming Bloods and Crips.
After New Jack City, a lot of rollers wanted to be like Nino Bown. I actually saw dope niggas around Tha D hoopin shirtless with dress pants, chains, and gators on.
Drive-by's were not a thing outside of SoCal in the 80's. After Colors and Boyz in the Hood, they were being done everywhere.

And I could go on. There's a lot of evidence point to a correlation between dumb shit niggas do on screen and hood niggas copying it in real life.

...yeah that doesn't make me feel safe.

Holding and posing with guns doesn't make you a good shooter.

Put them in a chaotic situation, they'll be shootin all over the place

Cause a large portion of white youth don’t actively go out to emulate and live that life that’s being portrayed. You can’t just join the Mafia, anybody can sell drugs on the corner.

We can’t on one hand speak about mass incarceration and social injustices held against our race. And on the flip side, promote the things that are being used as reason for why those things exist.

Same reason you can’t be a secretly gay pastor telling gays their going to hell for being gay. When people find out..it won’t exactly be cool for you.

happens every day, B

not cool, but its happening

all entertainment has an impact on people....people mostly emulate shit thats the furthest from their real life....why act out what you live in the middle of already?

after watching Blood Sport or Hard Target my lil ass was outside tryna round house niggas and make ninja stars

when I saw Menace or Colors I probably sagged my pants a lil harder that day but I didnt desire to be a blood lmao...that shit was there already.....there was nothing fun I saw and wanted to copy....I got the message and moved on

now the music, I can say it did influence me more later in life and thats a whole different story

but please dont say Boyz in the Hood made niggas buy Impalas and AK's
 
Know what I think those movies like boys in the hood and menace did. Amplify the gangsta aspect of what the cats in the movie was into.

So when you see Cain robbing a nigga for his rims, or O dog blacking out at every clip. There where cats in the hood, in my schools that wanted to be just like them.

My uncles where them niggaz, and I didn’t like my uncles so I didn’t think them niggaz was cool. So I see what ur saying

Hood niggas are easily influenced by hood shit on-screen. We've seen it happen time and time again. While YOU may not have went out and emulated that shit, there's tens of or, most likely, hundreds of thousands of young Black men in the hood that did. Like I said, how the fuck was niggas in the midwest claiming Blood and Crip by the end of the summer of '88 and ain't never stepped foot in LA or had an OG come out to put 'em on? Colors had impressionable niggas across the country throwin rags in their back pocket and bandannas on their head trying to be like Rocket and 'nem. Cats in Tha D wasn't doin drive-bys but after the summer of '91 they sure as shit was.
 
so you saying gang culture started in LA and would have never spread without those movies?

Im not arguing they could have had negative effects on certain people, but they're not responsible for the culture they were depicting in the film

art imitating life....any bozo who started bangin because of these movies didnt make it on the street....and I didnt have to be there to know this

people travel bro...everything spreads

there were real bloods and crips in Shreveport as far back as 92-93 and they didnt start from the movies.....they started from families from Cali moving down here and puttin niggas down

im positive this shit was happening with or without the hughes brothers....they didnt make crack either

You do realize Colors came out in '88, right? Pockets of cats claiming to be Crips and Bloods was popping up all over with not na'an OG to put 'em on. They saw the movie and decided they were crips or bloods.

Pretty sure if there was a movie with Folk and People crews in it you would have had idiots around the country claiming 'em too.

Back in the early 80's or late 70's, there was an episode of The Jefferson's where they were trying to guide this kid out of gang life. The older gang members called their battle scars "Medals" and made a point of talking about them and showing them off. The kid spoke about how he couldn't wait until her got his first "medal" and wound up getting it when he was murdered.

The very next day the kids around the way was showing off their lil scrapes and cuts callin' em "medals".

damn... whole episode "Jenny's Thesis" is online.

 
Dope topic, I would like to pose the question that could they be fearful of the fact that in some cases it's not as far from reality in black movies? A lot of stuff in those mob movies were fluffed up to appear more gangster and make shit more interesting. A lot of the narratives that take place in "gangster" black movies either have taken place or could take place. So could it be that it isn't fictional enough for them?
 
You cannot say the media portrays us in a certain light and people willfully eat up all the negatives.. then in the same token say media doesn't have a influence over behaviors, sensibilities and so forth iudgaf about what white people do I'm talking about us..

So really the thugs were already thugs they just did shit differently based on movies? But the guns violence and drugs were there anyway.

eeeeh... I won't say that's entirely true.

The movie Goodfellas was largely based on true events. The murders in Goodfellas for the most part actually happened except in some cases some of the more gruesome details were left out.

Tommy in the movie was based on Tommy DeSimone (Two Gun Tommy on the streets). Tommy was, indeed, murdered the night he was supposed to be made just like in the movie, and he was shot in the head three times. What was left out of the movie was that Tommy murdered not one, but two made men and tried to rape the wife of another made man along with showing his face during the heist also portrayed in the film (1978’s historic $6 million heist - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lufthansa_heist ) before the Gambino and Lucchese family heads ordered his death. In the movie they said they gave him a closed casket burial, in reality that didn't happen because his body has never been found. Incidentally, it was John Gotti who put those three bullets into his head.

The lone Black associate in the movie, Stacks, was based on Parnell "Stacks" Edwards. This one they pretty much nailed spot on he was killed for exactly the reason laid out in the movie.

The made man Tommy killed in the movie was Billy Batts, based on real life made man William Benventa, and he was killed for the same reason in the movie; a sideways ass comment about Tommy being a shoeshine boy. The bigger reason, however, was that Benventa's loan sharking business was taken over by Jimmy Burke while he was in prison and he wanted it back.

Every character in the movie was based on a real person and everyone that died is dead and the vast majority of those deaths happened either in the way shown in the movie or worse.

Same goes for another mob flick directed by Scorsese, Casino. (https://www.casino.org/blog/real-life-story-casino-movie-is-based-on/)
 
It’s their culture really

Violence, deceit, rape, murder...what they know

They also control media so compare the amount of gangster movies coming through for them compared to movies about white suburban kid suffering from terminal illness...probably damn near 1:1

Compare gangster/violent black movies to any type of black movie

Point me in the direction of the darkskinned equivalent to the Big Bang Theory

Who’s upset about parasitic behavior not being glorified within the culture
