brace yourselves for the #woke takes, people: The Hate U Give, which from trailers looks like Crash but based on a YA book described as "a #BLM primer", is coming out this week. it is expected to contend for Oscars.

I was under the impression that Harry Potter books were the only YA books ever written, possibly the only books ever written period.

Honestly a lot of people cite not being able to get to the polls as a reason for not voting so I'm not super mad at this

The only way the powers that be handle things like police corruption is to ramp them up and then put their spin on it so it's normal and okay now. I remember watching Serpico for the first time when I was about 22 and being utterly disgusted with the movie and Pacino for being in it. Felt the same way about Crash.

it's probably going to be better than Crash, but it's going to get unanimously positive reviews from critics solely based on its perceived good politics regardless of whether it's a good movie or not, so gently caress that noise

if these awards shows were as important as they're made out to be by self-righteous critics, kendrick lamar would have won best album three times already. it ultimately means nothing but they're too cowardly to give the man a worthless trophy

It's weird that kendrick lamar doesn't win all the awards. His brand of insanely tedious "important" rap should be like catnip to these fucks, it's perfectly calibrated for libs who want to listen to rap but can't bear the thought of someone thinking they're less than totally woke

Yea but he doesn't go to the "right" parties, and probably has opinions that differ from the "right" people, thus he is bad.

i'm not saying it's going to be as bad a film as Crash, but from the trailers/reviews its poiltics are about as subtle as those in Crash

which is to say, about as subtle as being smacked upside the head with a baseball bat

yeah but macklemore was equally woke in their minds for saying gay people are ok plus he's white so they gave it to him. like i know all major award shows are jokes and everything but it will never not be funny that loving macklemore beat out drake, kendrick, jay-z, and kanye for rap album of the year especially when two of the albums he beat are legit top 10 albums of any genre for the decade.

Salon.com being full of liberals constantly justifying their love for Eminem back in the day was pretty funny. Especially since they only really touched the misogyny of his lyrics, and never really got into the fact that they suddenly started paying attention the moment a white rapper became popular. You know, for some reason.
