its about a black man on a life long quest to murder the man who owns his wife.

Okay, so, is it a western?

not the feel good kind.

Django Unchained i think is the proper title for the Tarantino film. The dinner table scene, for me, was some of the best acting in film history. Dicaprio, little creep that he may be, took DeNiro's 'you talkin to me?' and said 'hold my beer'. Sean Penn's 'is that my daughter' now looks to Dicaprio's performance as inspiration.

Of course it quickly goes off the rails but my goodness what a scene. Much credit of course to Tarantino for the incredible build up, casting and direction. The guy is one of the very few fresh, original things to come out of Hollywood in my lifetime.

He's being obtuse in an effort to diminish the truth of a movie that makes comedy out of racism (and gayism or whatever you want to call it) being unmakeable in todays Karen-esque nanny state. They want to take away your right to laugh your ass off but don't want you to know about it.

no one is stopping anyone from making a movie where the comedy is making fun of racists. far from it, we make movies about murdering racists now. :rolleyes:

blazing saddles is a kids movie compared to what we are making now.

I saw a thing online that said that when DiCaprio cut his hand in that scene, it was real and unscripted, but he just kept going, and they kept it.

Nope, not that one.

Not in my opinion. Blazing Saddles to modern wokesters is Moses to the Jews. It's abolition to the slaves. It takes away all the white guilt power the wokesters have and tosses into the wind with a simple 'scuse me while i whip this out' and a simple 'i hired you people to build a railroad not dance around like a bunch of Kansas City xxxxxxxxx'. It says we can laugh at that stuff and it's ok to do so.

blazing saddles is the most woke western in a generation. thats the entire point. the entire point is mocking white washed westerns of the 1950s and 60s. there is nothing in blazing saddles that is in support of racism, traditionalism, or anything else. its woke AF.

people who think you cant make blazing saddles anymore, tend to not realize they are punchline in blazing saddles.

Blazing Saddles would have a slew of reactionary, woke idiots screaming even though it was satire.

no, blazing saddles is the very definition of woke. the comedy's punchline is the white washed racist imperialist westerns of the 50s and 60s (that so many here are posting about).



i know media literacy isnt the strongest here, but this is like high school level media analysis. as i said, if you dont think blazing saddles could be made today, you are probably part of the punchline of the movie.

I'm a big fan of Silverado (1985). It's considered a big step forward in bringing westerns back to the screen.

I didn’t love Blazing saddles. Not cause I’m
Awakened.

But that KKK scene in Django Unchained where everyone is complaining the eye holes in their white hoods were cut all effed up was the funniest scene in any western in my opinion. It was genius.

all that matters is can the ****ing horses see!

Don Johnson killed it in that movie.
