Ok now, I have a friend named Tom Coon.

We usually make Chad the black guy yell for Tommy when we need him for something, and it's always, " Hey Coon, get your ass over here!"

Hilarity ensues.

Yes, and Chad is probably one of the nicest the nicest guys I know. Big Trump guy, owns his own business.
His kids are all "Yes ma'am" and "Yes, sir." He lives right.

Attractive black women exist. Why are all of the ones that are forced on us the ugliest ones with the absolute worst hair and makeup?

I think because they don't "code" black enough.

Yup. A black character isn’t black unless he/she is ghetto as fuck, a female character isn’t female unless she’s an insufferable cunt, etc.

Wait. So there is a game about blacks "taking" back their relics from museums. Now we have a remake of a movie about stealing european paintings, but with blacks instead?? Lawl.

My bet would have been on turning the whole thing gay, but I guess blackwashing is the more common approach these days.

blackwashing

Hey now, that's an offensive term. The proper term is "shitstaining".

Danai Gurira is reuniting with her Black Panther co-star Michael B. Jordan for the Jordan-fronted reimagining of The Thomas Crown Affair.

Question: has a 'reimagining' ever been good? I've literally never ever been pleased at a project that was said to aim at reimagining something.

Also, I've never heard of Thomas Crown, nor of any of these people, and I'll try to excise them from my mind... NOW.

Forbidden Planet from the 50s is a sci-fi reimagining of The Tempest. In the early 2000s Sci Fi channel did a reimagining of Wizard of Oz. The Wiz had good music. I just hate modern reimagining or reboots because it’s always the same current year crap

I thought of the same mini-series / movie. Tin Man ( 2007 ), I enjoyed it.

Both the Steve McQueen and Pierce Brosnan films are fantastic (for people of discerning tastes of course). Then again, I'll watch anything with McQueen in it.

I suppose that makes it worse, because if you grew up loving the classics then these "reimaginings" make it sting that much more. It's purposeful desecration.

Personally, at least the first season of the 2000s Battlestar Galactica remake was better than the older one.

Also I prefer Star Trek TNG (post season 1) to Star Trek TOS.

People seem to like the 70s Supermans and Tim Burton Batmans even though there were earlier ones.

Also I think the more well known Tarzan films and Dracula films were remakes even though the don't seem that way to us because they are black and white era, there were just even earlier black and white ones. I haven't seen any of them.

Why does it feel like Michael B. Jordan's whole fucking filmography has him shapeshifting white characters into black ones or playing someone overtly anti-white? 99% chance this guy is a devout black supremacist.
