This movie and Braveheart are quite alike
Both are wildly historically inaccurate.
So, people who are saying this is a "black Braveheart" are telling the truth.

So, people who are saying this is a "black Braveheart" are telling the truth.
And why is this movie significant enough to mention in that regard, compared to the inaccuracy in virtually every single historical, western and biographical movie ever created? Of which, there are literally tens of thousands.
No man lies so boldly as the man who is indignant.
The two are being compared on this board quite a bit. Specifically, the term "black Braveheart" has been used. Its in so many threads that I started a post.
Here's a post about it specifically: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4196450/board/thread/262298619. Here's one where people are a lot more realistic about Braveheart: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4196450/board/thread/262139535. Other than that, its all over the place.
After seeing it enough and seeing Braveheart held up as a paragon of filmmaking virtue by most, I finally broke down and made an account to post that.
My point remains. Responding to talk of the historical inaccuracy of this film (Yes, even after it's been compared to "Braveheart" on this very board, seemingly endlessly.) is disingenuous of you...at best. Because, again, if it was important enough to cause you to make a special effort to "set the record straight", regarding all this chatter about the inaccuracy of this movie...without also causing you to feel a similar urge to set the record straight, and remind folks that historical accuracy has virtually never been a reliable aspect of ANY historical Hollywood movie, since it's very inception. (Literally, thousands upon thousands of times before this movie.) Then it tends to unintentionally imply that you (and likewise, dozens upon dozens of others before you on this board) have some sort of unconscious personal grudge against this one, "uniquely" whitewashed, movie. "That has to be addressed, above and beyond all others."
Or...were you planning on visiting the boards of "Braveheart" and a few thousand other historical movies too? (Now that you've signed up for your new account.) LOL

Well, since you care so much about this, better get busy in those threads.
Have fun. :)
[G-rated version]
The most fun is when people randomly come to so-called "black" boards like this. And are then completely and utterly stunned to suddenly be confronted with the comically Earth-shattering realization that for the very first time in their entire lives they're now going to actually be "forced" to start thinking about how the thoughts and feelings of people that are "nothing like them" are going to be regularly "invading" their very, very long-held thought patterns and mostly segregated lives.
Priceless.

Littlegeorgie should stop giving out knowledge for free
He's dropping gems that he should be paid for
His presence on this board among others, frightens you and you clearly dont know how to accept and unapologetic educated confident black man that is capable of standing on his SQUARE and his fearless ability to move around the board EXPOSING the ignorance of you people.
You hate his fortitude so much that you have relegated yourself to making up stories about the brotha reporting people to mods....lol.....thats the best you got??????
Snitching and telling on people is indicative of your peoples culture, not ours. Aint nobody running to mods because YOU and your people keep losing arguments and debates to the handful of people that can hold their own and actually take time to expose your ignorance.
Truth hurts doesn't it?
Actually, as of this post, now I am. Because this post says her interest is now clearly about "spreading the word" (assumedly amongst fellow stormfronters). And THAT has almost nothing to do with talking or debating at all. That's good, old fashioned, undisguised, racially motivated, hate-crime-justifying, stalking. By someone who has now made it clear that she is mentally ill and hungry to spread her illness to others.
And THAT I will VERY intentionally try to stop!!!

Liar.
This has nothing to do with StormFront or any other organized "group", it has everything to do with your ignorance and your inability to let anyone see you lose an argument every with every post you make.
That is what I am alluding to....every post that anyone corrects you, you call "racism" and have it flagged. EVERY ONE.
Which is perfectly aligned with the way your "movement" operates. Soon to be coming to an end in this country.
You are a coward. Nothing more, and nothing less.
And this movie TANKED

So, Hinton, you're claiming a "cultural" committment to non-cooperation with duly appointed authorities? Nice.
shareYeppers. Nate Parker robbed Braveheart's plot beats to such a degree that Nate might as well have walked up to the man who wrote it, sucker punched him out of nowhere, and ran off with his briefcase. Unfortunately for Nate, his film wasn't as good because it missed some important people connections before Nat turned himself in, because this was like Braveheart except without the Scottish King carrying on his life's work for him, instead, we got to stare into the faces of a whole bunch of other Africans who would be the next generation of slaves. Bummer of an ending.
