The American Society of Magical Negroes - Trailer HD
Upcoming Quality Film - New American Cinema

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gizIbhk5Eu4

Social-Democratic Scandinavian here.
This movie looks promising and thought provoking.

I had almost given up on Hollywood lately (too much childish superhero movies) and then this film gives me renewed hope for contemporary drama.

Definitely gonna give this film a chance when it hits the theaters. :goldencheck:

Why do you call a film about this important uncomfortable topic a "race-baiting movie"?

This is a long standing American social issue and trope. For your information:

First time I hear of that trope. Surprised I didn't hear about it before but it imediately reminded me of the last movie I watched (The Platform). I feel like I should have noticed it myself. Feeling kinda dumb right now.

Key and Peele sharp and hilarious as always. Thanks for the vid.

White people who are made uncomfortable by this trailer...

No words. Just observing that they exist.

I'm white. I'm not THAT white.

You said you were Scandinavian. How the hell would you know what a long standing American anything is? ROFLMAO, you think what you read/hear online is accurate? The fact you have to identify yourself front and center by your political affiliation says all I need to know. You care more about how others view than whether you're actually right or wrong. So by all means, pretend us Americans give a crap what someone thousands of miles away thinks about "American issues."
You seem to care.

Seems like a Hollywood (movie-makers) in-joke, that's going to fall completely flat with the public.

Who could possibly think this was a good idea???

That's because a lot of effort is needed for such mental gymnastics... it takes effort to believe that

I have as much hope for it as I had with the black little mermaid
I'm always wondering "WHY" do they believe they will make 100% of cash with a movie about the 12 % of peoples in America and half of them can't even aford the price of a movie ticket

This movie quote...

"What's the most dangerous animal on the planet?"
"White people feeling uncomfortable."

...Yea, that's racist.

And it's the entire foundation of the movie's plot.

Black people in America, if you're reading this... Those awkwardness and conversations are just trying to include you. It's not some abuse. The weirdness is part of integrating cultures.

Just like there are crazy black people, there are crazy white people who will call the police on a stressful day.

Just like you get angry having to drive behind a bike on the highway and think it's illegal when it's not, they do too and call the cops when they shouldn't.

And if you're walking toward a car in Chicago, yes, people are going to lock their door. Even if you are going to be elected president 8 years in the future and are Barrack Obama.
