Trailer got a slight chuckle outta me, but it looked pretty formulaic and low budget, kind of feels like a 90's Norm Macdonald movie, which I had to look up. I know I'm supposed to be big mad offended by blackface but I've honestly just never been able to bring myself to care, mostly it just looks low budget, formulaic, and kinda silly/stupid.

Well yeah, except the whole "Can you imagine if anyone actually made something this offensive?" part which was the whole point of those sketches. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmjuSOhaYco https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yoc2A-fNUw Edit: judging by the youtube comments there's a whole lot of people who somehow missed that part so I don't even know any more Snowglobe of Doom fucked around with this message at 10:19 on Jun 12, 2019 |

Yeah he's a little angrier now, but he seems to always find something worthwhile to write about.

K. Waste posted:Except it shouldn’t because it’s just some self-produced, vanity project, dtv garbage. It is literally just a window into the insane narcissism of a completely unremarkable performer. It’s also tremendously informative as an example of a modern Randian objectivist film. It should, though. The entire plot device used to drive Joe's decision to create "Loqueesha" is the concept of affirmative action, and that he did not get his fair shake because he's just a white guy. It's something that is also immediately contradicted by the radio station being desperate for anything to increase ratings, and then never brought up again. The movie doesn't have to be explicitly about "alt-right" politics to justify making people angry. it's movie with a South Park-level understanding of race, society, and discrimination that that offers a dumbass opinion on how it affects people like Saville. It's a bad opinion to have, and the idiot made a movie to hammer it home. The only good thing this movie has going for it is that it will pass into the oblivion of forgotten garbage because it has the decency to be insipid and boring as hell. The Room, however, is a masterpiece of art poorly put together under one man's vision, and shall live on forever.

if there is one benefit to Rabin's ongoing coverage on Saville its that the offensive ideas of Loqueesha are not unique to that film

Wow, that review makes this sound far, far worse than I could have ever imagined it was
