If you don’t know she is part African American, there’s no way you would think she’s part African American. Valerie Jarrett looks like a white lady perhaps with some Latin roots, like I would’ve guessed she was half-white and half-Colombian. Nothing about Valerie Jarrett’s facial features or hair says African American. And Roseanne should not have been “cancelled” for that tweet. Whatever happened to free speech and the right for comedians to make jokes, yes, even ones that cross the line. It’s a huge double standard. Because Roseanne is a conservative, she gets “cancelled” from Hollywood and basically her career is over when the show is Roseanne’s show based on her life experiences, yet the show will continue to air without Roseanne. Yet, Keith Olberman calls Trump a Nazi multiple times in his tweet, and because he’s a liberal, he doesn’t get “cancelled”. Olberman is still allowed to keep HIS job. This is not what this country is supposed to represent. Sure, Roseanne’s tweet was offensive, but she’s a comedian who, like all comedian’s push the envelope and see how far they can go to get a laugh out of people or to get a rise out of people. If Roseanne’s tweet was without a doubt not aiming for humor but instead was aiming to spread hatred (i.e., if Roseanne called Valerie Jarrett the “N” word), then yes you fire her from her show because that is obviously hate speech. But Roseanne didn’t know Valerie was part African-American when she said “Planet of the Apes”. Roseanne said she thought Valerie was either white or Jewish, or Muslim or something, but not African American. Roseanne’s tweet was inappropriate and over the top, but it wasn’t intended to be racist against Black people. Roseanne is not racist against Black people. She’s great friends with Wanda Sykes who Roseanne asked to be a writer on the reboot of her show. To ruin people’s lives like that over an inadvertently inappropriate tweet is not the kind of country any American should want to live in.
Hello first off although l don,t agree with everything Mr Elder says l,m generally a fan of his.l thought the movie was long yes but wasn,t bad and wasn,t worth all the praise it got.After reading your public comments i,m baffled to see that most people missed the point of this movie. Having a black superhero should be a positive for minorities.Sending a message that black society can work together with each other and the rest of society to solve problems and threats. That should be a positive reflection of blackculture and thought about by everyone blacks , whites, whomever.Need more movies like this where everyone besides the badguys get along.Tired of sjw,s and all these movements creating conflict , always saying they are the victoms. Maybe look in the mirror and clean up your own house before bitching at everyone about your situation.Easy to criticize, really tough to make things better. Man up and make the world a better place one step at a time. Maybe being Canadian makes me nieve but the saying " Make love not war" rings true for me.
Hate to break it to Theron and Sandra Bullock too, but being rich, white and a single white female celebrity adopting black children isn’t noble, or woke, it’s a stunt for publicity that could be seen from 100 miles away! Kinda makes one wonder who they were trying to convince that they’re not racists......the public or themselves! Both Theron and Bullock have each dated 10 or 11 different men. 20 men and not a black man among them! Hmmmm. And with the dating practices of actresses, they’ll have no dad or even a stable male presence in their lives. No, Charlize, racism is the least of those kid’s problems. Their biggest problem is having a batshit liberal celebrity kook for a mother!
father build up men im talking straight men with real masculinity this is the major problem in the black family, the government created that system with welfare and plan parenthood
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS MAN IS TALKING ABOUT!!! I DON'T FEEL THAT COLD TOWARDS ANY HUMAN BEING NOR DO I AGREE WITH HIM THAT MOST PEOPLE FEEL THAT WAY. HE IS A COLD HEARTED , NO LOVE FOR MANKIND MAN AND THE EXAMPLES HE GAVE OF THE MAN MOWING THE LAWN AND THE LADY AT THE TOLL BOOTH, THE HOMELESS AND DENNIS RODMAN IS JUST PLAIN COLD HEARTED AND MEAN SPIRITED. HE SPOKE AS IF IT WAS SO NORMAL TO FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT OTHER HUMAN BEINGS. SCARY!!!!!!!!!!
I think that my son and I are in line with you on this movie... We always go to the theater for the release, then we wait for the DVD so we can enjoy it as often as we like. That being said, we have logged a lot repeat hours on most of the Marvel Movies, except this one, I think maybe 2 re-watches, and it's in the timeline book. So, yeah, not really sure what went askew with this one, have to go check it out again, maybe my sleeping pill. Yep, I remember the cartoon and the comics (.25cents man), I even had the play set with him and the condor, was it a condor?...lol Keep poking them in the nose, they (we) all need it sometimes. Oh, and that guy was spot on, Dare Devil is such a great character...only to be torched in this movie... I was so pissed!
I loved it...if you couldn't follow it...that's on you...wow!!! African accents for African characters...what's that about...I mean that is as absurd as James Bond having a British accent...or William Wallace having a "Scottish" accent ...lol Larry ...do better...Michael B Jordan sounded like Snoop? laughable!
we're not allowed to promote children being raised by a mother and father anymore. if we point out that this is the ideal situation and without it nothing but problems occur, it directly contradicts the single mother culture and the LGBT culture, both of whom are unable or unwilling to live this way. saying that having a mom and dad is the best, automatically implies that having just a mom or two moms/two dads is deficient. and SJW's will never allow this reality to be promoted. political correctness will be the death of us all.
Larry, thank you for taking this call- an example of what society is up against: adults are stunted and narcissistic juveniles. The dad must be prone to bursts of testosterone mixed and misplaced insecurity...he used the anonymous call-in as an opportunity to model his worst and mess his children up.
He couldn’t interpret or explain Dr Baker’s labs 🤣 but he was making some big claims about his labs. I started carnivore right after nursing school and while my blood sugar is never low, it’s never high either. I’m steady all day every day around 90 and my BP is always between 90/60 and 90/64. You don’t have to be fit to be healthy, you absolutely know when you’re healthy vs when you’re just skinny and fit. I 💕 meat.
Charlize the sleaze should be put Six Feet Under if you know what I mean why don't some of you Psychopaths out there get busy and start f****** Doling out the f****** s*** these assholes deserve
Weird. If blacks were being "slaughtered daily" and forcibly kept from voting during Reconstruction, how did so many black men hold elected office during that period? Besides, consider that all Southerners who fought for the Confederacy (a huge number of White adult males) were stripped of voting rights.
