Movie to keep the black stereotype strong


I'm white, blonde and blue eyes... and when I saw this trailer it just seemed like a desperate and conscious attempt to keep the black stereotyping game strong.

''It's just comedy man!'' And this is true, and I think even racist jokes should just be seen as jokes. I know quite a bunch of racist jokes that are funny to me, but this seems like shuch a racist movie covered in casual laughs you expect at a sitcom that I was a bit shocked at how low a movie project can go.

It felt like this movie was not made for laughs, it seemed like the main reason for this movie to be made was to keep the stereotyping game strong.

Am I overthinking this?
