Did anyone else think Machetes trailer was as racist, anti white and civil war inciting as it gets by actors who are otherwise respected? {nm} Borat May 06, 15:05

No. Why don't you explain why you felt it was racist, anti-white and civil war inspiring? Then maybe someone can give you a proper answer. {nm} Apokalips May 06, 15:14

Gee I wonder................IM Borat May 06, 15:42

Oh, please... Apokalips May 06, 16:06

Please take the political rants to the Life Board. {nm} Antibody May 06, 16:11

I meant that as in general. {nm} Antibody May 06, 16:13

Fair enough I'm just used to this one. {nm} Borat May 06, 16:32

How is it racist to want someone in your country legally? You sure have a big mouth. {nm} Borat May 06, 16:38

I'll disregard the insult. And leave the political ranting to another board, per Antibody. Apokalips May 06, 16:55

You'll disregard it like your doing me a favor after you run your mouth to me? Give me a break. {nm} Borat May 06, 17:04

Whatever, man. It's all love on my side of the fence. Best of luck to you. {nm} Apokalips May 06, 17:19

no, it's a send up of 70s exploitation movies and the humor is meant ironically mickpix May 06, 15:15

Personally, I think it looks fantastic. {nm} Apokalips May 06, 15:18

Still gonna see it......Love Rodriquez movies........just think things are getting ridiculous. {nm} Borat May 06, 16:50

All the characters are caricatures {nm} Moviesnob May 06, 15:47

Tell that to people on the border who are dead now. {nm} Borat May 06, 15:58

nobody's even seen the movie so i'm having a hard time figuring out what violence it could have incited mickpix May 06, 16:06

Inciting refering to its intention when it does get released. {nm} Borat May 06, 16:32

"people on the border who are dead now" {nm} mickpix May 06, 16:33

while I'm sympathetic to victims of violent crimes, you don't stop making movies if they are semi-related to real events {nm} Moviesnob May 06, 16:35

Very true..........my point was it just seems to be pushing people who are already angry over legit issues on both sides. {nm} Borat May 06, 16:44

like most exploitation, it will be seen as hateful by some, cathartic to others, but entertainment for most. Moviesnob May 06, 16:58

the only one it's pushing is you, apparently {nm} mickpix May 06, 16:59

Are you suggesting a person named Borat shouldn't take something seriously? {nm} Qale May 06, 20:30

He is a MexiCAN, not a MexiCAN'T!!! Hooray360 May 06, 17:22
