How does a movie where people can't even speak properly win best picture?

I'm not perfect either, as English isn't my first language, but at least I know basic grammar like "I am, he/she/it is", but these niggas say shit like "you is" and "they was" all the time. Oh, and don't forget the never ending double negatives like "I never said nothing" and "I didn't see no one".

I could barely sit through this movie because of this shit.

It's the same with Fences, but at least Fences was a good film.

Also, white uneducated people are no better. You could set a movie in the back yard of West Virginia staring a bunch of red neck retards and you equally wouldn't be able to understand a single sentence.

Fucking racists.

It was pandering to a white audience.. This was a black movie written for white people.. To help SJW feel like the finally "understand" the life of a young black man growing up in the ghetto.. WHO happens to be gay.

One time I watched a movie and a character said "ain't." I physically recoiled in horror at the use of such an immature word.

Anyone else actually laugh out loud whenever Naomi Harris talked like a retard? I don't know if it just because i know that she can actually talk as seen in James bond, or if I'd find anyone talking like that ridiculous. Completely ruined serious scenes.

However I could just about stomach this and justify it as authentic ghetto speak, but what I couldn't tolerate was how literally everyone in the movie mumbled through every line. Couldn't hear a fucking thing half the time. I refuse to believe anyone in the world, nig or otherwise, talks like that to each other. Unless they're autistic/shy children who's parents didn't tell them not to mumble

no, not really. its mostly boring and then at some points very uncomfortable

Definitely but it really isnt the best of the Best Picture contenders, not even close

I found it pretty disappointing

If you want something more artistic is very good. If you just want to turn your brain off and have fun then you'll hate it.

It's actually really good. The cinematography is fantastic, the story is interesting, and it's less SJW than you would expect considering the subject.

No, Jenkins has some skill in getting performances from his actors, but as a storyteller and cinematic craftsman, on the basis of this movie he's amateurish. This movie, like Boyhood, didn't really have anything to say. The boy is uninteresting and remains so as a teen and young man, and the sensitive mounting of the issue of his sexuality doesn't inherently make the movie more valuable as an artistic endeavor.

The film is just fundamentally a weak story that's being overly commended because of its managing to present characters not frequently portrayed onscreen (a decent man who's a successful drug dealer, a black inner-city youth with homosexual leanings, a bad mother who's not a monster, etc. - all very interesting potentially, but not so much in the service of drama this mundane and superficially developed).

>>79898281
If people do something wrong long enough it'll stick. Yeah. Great "science". it's still wrong.
>>
I don't know, dudes.

I had the movie fucking cranked the whole time and couldn't understand a fucking thing.

And it's not like the dialogue is even needed. I could've watched the whole thing on mute and still understood what was going on.

Def didn't think it was Best Picture quality though.
Manchester By The Sea was superior in every way.
>>
>>79898204
And yet I'll bet you describe anything vaguely artful as "kino" like the meme-loving fuck you are.

So it's a movie about how a gay kid got beat on, lives in the ghetto, hates druggies, then becomes a dealer? Whilst also harboring some latent homo? Why would this be a winner? MC is still a shitstain crack dealer. Why would him being gay make it a great film?
>>
>>79898227
If you're a faggot and into fags, sure.
>>
>>79897927
What the fuck are you on about. A movie created by a black man, starring an entirely black cast portraying a story about problems that black people experience.
>>
>>79897266
That was really edgy anon. Good job.
>>
This is a gay movie. Not a black movie so Spotlight winning best picture doesn't count for us.

Make it a move about a brother that's not a faggot and we'll talk.
>>
Holy fuck this movie sucked
I just went into it expecting it to be a movie version of The Wire, and instead I got some boring ass gay romance.
Half of the fucking plot wasn't even explained, like why the fuck the bullies had a hate boner for him.

Some of the music was ok though
>>
>>79898227

Movie is a technically good movie but it isn't something I'd really go out of my way for.

As the other people have said, the movie doesn't really leave you with much. I can't really complain about it but there's not much of an impact that other good movies will leave you with. And people who claim the movie is SJW propaganda obviously didn't watch it. It hardly made those issues the forefront of the movie.

Im as confused as you,
Unless there is some sort of deep meaning Im missing it seemed like a pretty boring film.
Its trying to do they same thing The Wire does by depicting black culture in a city but less detailed.
And there was too much time given to the romance

I dont understand why this is movie of the year other than /pol/ being right this time and its just propaganda to feel bad for blacks and accept gays

im a black btw
>>
>>79900364
Hey, should art only deal with the nicer parts of life?

I haven't seen the film and I think the Oscars are a sham but you should probably watch it yourself before writing it off entirely.
>>
>>79903773

No it shouldn't, and it probably shouldn't be a mouth piece for 'how to live your life correctly' either.

I just don't sympathize with the situation depicted. Get some training/education during the juvie years, why fall back on the traditional ghetto storyline of 'druggie hating kid ends up being a dealer'. 'Can't escape the cycle' and all is just over done in my opinion, seen it enough that it's stale. Making a character gay doesn't really impress me either. It's not a think piece, I'd say more style than substance.

I'm not the target audience clearly.

go watch some worldstar hiphop videos. The dialogue in this movie was fairly legit to the scene it was portraying.
>>79898227
It's worth watching once. Cinematography was incredible, acting was thuroughly well done. The score was very moving as well. I personally felt the pacing was horrendously slow, there's maybe 20 scenes in the entire damn movie. It does have one of the most satisfying chair smashes I've ever seen in a film. I think it won best pic because the oscars needed to pander to the black community and the lbgt community, lala land made a helluva lot more sense imo. This movie will probably be widely forgetten in 10 years, just like several best pic winners in the past. When was the last time you heard someone talk about the hurt locker?
7.5/10

>>79897266
It's called AAVE and it's just awful, OP.

Ghetto blacks are such a displeasure to have to listen to. They are uneducated by choice and just like in Moonlight, they take the "easy way out" instead of working hard and choosing a respectable career.

I haven't seen all of Moonlight yet but from what parta I've seen/read it disgusts me that it's never implied anywhere near the end of the film that Chiron gives up being a drug dealer?? His mother suffered and made him suffer because of her crack edition, but by selling crack to others he has made himself no better than Juan.

And it sucks so much because that's where it seemed like the film was going, but they didn't do it so Chiron just looks like a hypocritical gay asshole.

It's so embarrassing that this film is being praised for being pro-LGBT but Chiron isn't a good person.
