>Snoop Dogg has no plans to watch the Roots remake, and he's telling his fans to also boycott the show.

>The rapper sent out his message over social media on Monday.

>"I'm sick of this shit. How the f— are they going to put Roots on, on Memorial Day?" Snoop said in an Instagram video. "They going to just to keep beating that shit into our heads about how they did us, huh?"

>The History channel's revival is a four-part, eight-hour series that debuts Monday.

>"I ain't watching that shit, and I advise you motherf-—ers as real n— like myself; f— them television shows," Snoop said. "Let's create our own shit based on today, how we live and how we inspire people today. Black is what's real. F— that old shit."

>The original series, based on Alex Haley's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, debuted on ABC in 1977.

Snoop Dogg and AVGN team up to decide what not to watch when?

Django Unchained was pretty good though.

He's not wrong.

he's got a point

He kind of of has a point, every nig movie from the past few years has either been some slave shit, or how they've been oppressed and rised etc..
We get it, move on.

based doge

There's gotta be a way to phrase it better, but I agree. I'm tired of reboots in general, and I'm also tired of the media's obsession with slavery and "muh oppression" for everything.

pretty much agreed

yes, it's history, but with so so much hyperbolic focus on it in media, it becomes racially divisive

I REFUSE.

Too right.

Never thought Snoop would say anything more profound than "smoke dat weed nigga" but he's totally right. History is important, but if you live in the past it can screw up your perspective on the now. All these white guilt slavery movies only engender more anger on both sides and makes the white people in support look like two-faced pussies. It doesn't really help anyone

>"I ain't watching that shit"
based snoop

But Snoop how else can they make Oscar bait? Can't rely only on the jews because there aren't that many ways to spin the holocaust into interesting and entertaining flicks.

I have very mixed feelings about a black rapper using ebonics to speak out against such bullshit.

Django was an over the top slapstick revenge story that could have had basically any setting, the backdrop of slavery was just one that worked, it had no agenda on the subject
If anything it shits on the movies that do for the exact reasons that Snoop is pointing out

you retards act like snoop hasn't done the race bait shit where dey owe us dem monies and dey is shooting us doe

hey, when you're right you're right.

>being yourself to send a profound message

based snoop

He has a point that slave movies are played the fuck out, but if you are white and say that you get called racists, people will probably just say lol snoop stop smoking weed.

Im also fucking tired of ww2 movies.

snoop is as fucking real as they come

here's a vid of him calling out his former gangsters for not maturing,
youtube.com/watch?v=3gU9qG5Dnb0

he's always going on about how blacks need to make their own thing and stop trying to be shoe-horned in to everything

>whites make slave shit to showcase their guilt
>blacks lap it up
>whites are always racist and will always be a racist becomes a meme
>now their shit made to showcase guilt becomes beating blacks over the head with it in some sort of bragging
WHITE MAN CAN'T HELP HIMSELF

>Im also fucking tired of ww2 movies.
Are you living in 2003?

Is he implying that their current "struggle" isn't also completely overdone in pop media?

>it becomes racially divisive

nice buzzphrase

your country is already racially divided

Remember when he was all for Red Tails?

don't say you're tired of ww2 movies, gamers made that mistake and now all we have is modern/future warfare games ;_;

WHAT A NOVEL CONCEPT

I think he's saying that the media they create now should be more positive and uplifting at least.

based

this nigga is right as fuck

Based Doog

well said. morgan freeman said the same thing - the way to get rid of racism is to stop talking about it.

youtube.com/watch?v=z2d2SzRZvsQ

>Im also fucking tired of ww2 movies.
I am very glad you said this. WW2 movies are filled with white men. Now no one can accuse you of being racist. Good job!

dis nigga woke

Snoop keeping it real.

based snoop spitting truth

Good for Snoop.

I still hate Empire, though.

Why do i feel they should make a twins remake or switched places comedy with snoop and spike lee?

everything about ww2 has been said a billion times over by now.
There is nothing new to add.
The only original thing would be to do it form the axis point of view but kikes will never let that happen.

Even though a movie about pic related would win 10000 oscars

>I'm not racist, Snoop Dogg said the same!

They made a big budget movie about Valkyrie, but nobody saw it

>he doesn't know about Bravo Nolan's next Magnum Opus "Dunkirk"

Snoop confirmed new king of Sup Forums?

YUP

Fuck a Holocaust movie!!
Fuck a slave flick!!
Especially fictional ones!!

Birth of A Nation should literally be the last slave flick ever

This motherfucker got it right. Straight based, son.

>mfw people are so caught up in their BS they won't even listen to God himself tell it like it is.

I agre! No more bullshit historical movies! Live in the present, not the past!

(By the way they should make a flick where the nazis are the good guys)

2016: Year of Not Watching Shit

yeah but it was about hurrrr nazi who wanted to kill hitler.
Of course no movie that doesnt have spiderman is going to do good today.

Look at everything this guy did

Operations by Skorzeny[edit]
Operation François – Co-ordination of guerilla operations in Iran.
Operation Oak (Unternehmen Eiche, September 1943) – The rescue of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini.
Operation Long Jump – A rumoured attempt to assassinate the "Big Three" (Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt) during the 1943 Tehran Conference.
Operation Knight's Leap (Unternehmen Rösselsprung, May 1944) – An attempt to capture Josip Broz Tito alive.
Operation Armoured Fist (Unternehmen Panzerfaust a.k.a. Unternehmen Eisenfaust, October 1944) – The kidnapping of Miklós Horthy, Jr., son of Hungarian Regent, Admiral Miklós Horthy, to force Admiral Horthy to resign as head of state in favor of the pro-Nazi leader of the Arrow Cross Party, Ferenc Szálasi.
Operation Griffin (Unternehmen Greif, December 1944) – A false flag operation to spread disinformation during the Battle of the Bulge.
Suicide squads – A secret unit of German suicide bombers, many of whom were unclear as to the nature of their appointment, organised early in 1944, but discontinued on orders from Hitler.
Werewolf SS – A planned Nazi underground resistance movement in Allied-occupied Europe.

but youre all gonna suck matthew mccoughnehey dick when that free state of jones movie comes out

>The rescue of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini.
What a hero

I dont think we should stop talking about it.

But i think most of the conversation is based on an antiquated conventional understanding.

good for him. he has the right attitude.

I love snoop. He fucking hates sjw muh black people whoa is me shit. I'm glad he, Ice Cube, Jaime Fox, etc are voices of reason amongst all this shit.

Thank fucking god for that. The only way to get studios to stop making shit is to stop financing it with your ticket sales. People are so obsessed with having their opinion about a new movie they'll pay for any shit to keep up with pop culture. I'm relieved we finally have people saying to stop going, to stop talking about and to stop allowing it to happen.
If you go see a movie like GB 2016 just to shit on it you're just as bad as the people who like it

Valkyrie

Snoop Dogg with that Dick Cheney gimmick.

>rich guys

he also escaped to the middle east after ww2 and worked with israel but also trained the Palestinians.
then he went to south america to form the 4th Reich and be evita perons body guard

He is a pretty funny guy

Snoop:

"Lets make movies about car washes, selling drugs to kids, and how I got away withh murder. Oh y'all forgot I murdered a man?"

Dude knows who killed Pac and Biggie too. Gonna have to wait til his or Dre's deathbed to find out who

rev up those manbaby accusations, cause I'm sure hungry for one

He tried to escape with the jew card, but Freeman ripped him a new asshole. He is right. The black this, the black that, month, day, award only serves to segregate or as a reminder of things past.

>WW2 movies are filled with white men. Now no one can accuse you of being racist. Good job!
You've activated my face down trap card!!

It's not history. The author is a proven plagiarist and it's about as authentic a story as Sybil and Faces of Death.

*smacks dick*

Yeah we're on a movie/tv board discussing celebrities. Did your post have a fucking point?

TV shows win Emmys.

Is that Peep Show Alan Johnson?

Movie trailer come out on internet. Some people like. Some people love. Some people whatever. But baby-men, they no like. Baby-men no like at all. Baby-men hate, because movie make baby-men mad. Baby-men click thumb-down button on video site, because thumb-down button means mad. Did baby-men mention they mad? They mad.

Baby-men liked old movie that baby-men saw when baby-men were babies, before internet was place where baby-men could put angry baby-thoughts. New movie no have men, have women. Women confuse baby-men. Women not men. Women not men at all!

Baby-men bang head against keyboard until form mad baby-words. Baby-men put mad baby-words on internet. Baby-men shriek into void.

Can baby-men have new Entourage movie, please?

i'm not american so i don't know what the fuck this is about

someone explain

I'm not American and I've never seen Roots but I'm also not mentally retarded so I can infer from the OP that it's about slavery
Oh wait you just wanted to talk about how great you are for not being American and to post your epic meme picture

white jew media keeps on making slave films to jerk off to, snoop wants to see black people in roles that arent slaves

That's not true at all. QT directly intended to make a slave revenge story and give blacks a western hero.

HOL UP SENPAI
U FINNA BE SAYIN WE WUZ NOT DE FIRST PEOPLE IN AMERICA

>The rescue of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini.

that went well, lol

See

>Im also fucking tired of ww2 movies
So am I. WW2 has been overdone in books, film, and video games.

>beating this shit into our heads

I can quite literally only recall two movies about slavery in thw past 5 years that I both heard about and watched.

So, should we never make a film about slavery again? Pretty sure that's mostly how people start forgetting their own history. It is also shit like this that gets Kansas (or whichever state it was) to change the word "slave" in their history textbooks

This pushback against depicting slavery in film is fear mongering knee jerk responses making a non-issue into a an actual issue. And when you live in a country where most don't even believe in basic science and some are even retarded enough to think the planet is flat, perhaps the very last thing you should do is stop talking about history

He might still be alive if they just let the Americans take him away

>The rescue of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini
>A rumoured attempt to assassinate the "Big Three" (Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt) during the 1943 Tehran Conference
>An attempt to capture Josip Broz Tito alive
>A secret unit of German suicide bombers

wow, that guy was the definition of success

>People are now going to go see Ghostbusters to prove people who dislike it wrong.
It would have tanked if everyone just ignored it

Or you know, actually be proactive and teach kids better lessons about tolerance? Doing and saying nothing doesn't impart positivity through osmosis

I think Morgan's point is retarded

Red Tails is about a bunch of black guys flying Mustangs. There's a racism theme in it, but it's not about slavery.

Snoop is based.

Why do people honestly care so much about it? It's just a dumb remake. Literally I don't care

It's the information age, bro. You don't have to carve history into a rock anymore. You can watch Glory at any time using digital media.

Unless the internet snaps in half and the entire infrastructure of the planet collapses simultaneously with every library in the world being burned to the ground we wont be "forgetting" jack shit, moron.

You'd expect nothing less of a cuck of his caliber.

Fuck yeah it's the D O dubba G

He's like 80 and he's still the coolest nigga that ever cut loose

>keep showing the abuse we took hundreds and hundreds of years ago.

Where you when you discovered blacks are immortals

>we won't be forgetting jack shit because of the internet

Because it has been 100 percent an accurate pool of information where people are rational and enlightened enough to spot fake information that fits their confirmation biases and real facts

Because America has NO actual problem with the absolute buttload of information that any moron can access. Everyone agrees 100 percent thanks to mass information

Right? No discrepancies? We all agree on how history plays out? Nobody has ever lied? Changed a textbook? Changed a narrative?

Either you are an aggressive fuck with poor bait or a literal retard

yeah create your own shit based on today, call it dindunuffin

make a movie about that nba player getting shot whilst breaking and entering lol

stupid niggers baka

Heeeeeeeeeeere we are

YO

born to be kings

we 're the princes of the uuuuuuuunivaaaaaaaaaaaaars

AIGHT,AIGHT

Okay, you're right. Lets redo Roots once a year.

Is Snoop Dogg redpilled

We haven't had big budget WW2 movies for years

Oh they're reairing the original Roots? Are they gonna include the scenes with OJ?
