hollywood strongarms a token black in a white film (spoiler)


his 2 timing wife ends up with morris chestnut (he probably didnt want to be credited for this filth) and its ok because he gets a fair skinned beauty with glasses on his roster

there was no reason a black guy should even be in this, frankly i know zero blacks who would hang out with 2 douches like efron n teller.

You don't think there are Black lotharios that only care about sleeping around? The black out of wedlock birhrate is super high. This is more the norm than not. It's not that the character was Black, it was that he so much more mature than the other two.

reply

Definitely. He simply didn't fit because his character and stage of life (married) was out of sync with his friends.

reply

Sure, but I guess that was the point of the plot. These three friends had been slowly moving away from each other and his sudden divorce gave them the opportunity to make that dumb pact, so they could hold on to some idea of the past and not wanting to commit/mature. (At least for Miles Teller and Zac Efron)

reply

On the plus side his ex-wife was a stunner, he was the only one with a great career and the only one who had the opportunity to get married!













Ashmi any question

You know why he kept saying he looked like Morris Chestnut, because he was not Morris Chestnut. The actor is DB Woodside.

reply

Thank you. I was sure I saw the actor from "Halt and Catch Fire" yet when I looked at Morris Chestnut's credit, I didn't see the show's title.

What a dumb $@* thing to say. I haven't seen this film, but for you to say a black guy dosen't belong in the movie simply because he's black, that's just some dumb and racist bull****. So according to you,no black person should ever be in a film with white people. This is the 21st century,you idiot. Black people can be wherever the hell they want. You don't know who the hell would hang out with who in real life, so just shut your ignorant behind the hell up. Just because black people don't exist in your world, you just had to go and say some stupid s*** like this.
