Django Unchained: Selling Slaves as Action Figures

ive seen the movie.. and I'm still meh about it.

I can continue to see why ppl wouldn't want to see the movie--
and I dont blame them for it...
or question their reasoning
b/c many of the arguments that I heard ppl use as to why they didn't want to see the film... happened in the movie.

so for me-- it is that simple.

its a controversial movie. QT knows it, I know it.. and plenty of others know it too.
I wont call ppls outrage of it faux based on the contention well you didn't see it.

ETA: *Reads BB's post* I will now switch to unclassy tea because I laughed harder than I should have.

I never insinuated that. I can't help it if that's how you took it.

That's fine if that's what you want to believe.
