They really should stop casting black people in anything.

Maybe if they could handle doing like, 13/30 instead of 13/60 levels of crime and stop blaming everything on others?

I'm so annoyed this wasn't just a slapstick comedy with a group of magical negroes and a group of manic pixie dream girls just fighting over the destiny of some generic white guy (played by, idk, Jack Quaid).

Imagine that movie title staring Kat Williams, Bernie Mack and the other ones I don't know the names of. No fucking Chappelle though he's an unfunny faggot who crawled up his own ass 20 years ago. Also they're magical so that's how they brought back the Mack.

Getting along usually means appeasement and tolerance on one side and absolute tyranny and abuse from he other. Even the cool ones at some point will bring up like trayvon and need you to condemn your people for it but will never ever give a shit about the thousands they murder and rape every year. I dont like them.

Yeah he was a pretty boring character. I didn't mind when he left. Although he was good as the token black character to get upset about things and discuss race relations. And he tended to talk sense into the other adult characters.

It really is a conundrum. Blacks get mad when you portray them as thugs and get mad when you portray them as decent people. What a crazy world we live in.

Basically you have to give black people ALL the parts in the movie AND behind the scenes.
Except for the guy who pays for it. They don't want that role.

The only good part of The Stand is when society is collapsing during the outbreak, and the brief period afterward where the survivors are trying to survive in the aftermath. As soon as magical negress and the villain who eventually gets eaten by a big spider in The Dark Tower show up, I bail.

I'm surprised no one has thought to make some kind of Avengers parody out of a team of magical negro stereotypes.

If the fearless 2005 film industry that liked being offensive stuck around it would have. The Scary Movie people definitely would have made one. Probably starring Eddie Griffin.

theres also the magical jew that comes in with insight and magical inspiration for goyim. usually older extremely semitic and often a rabbi. see independence day for one example.

Because it's a cringy as all fuck joke. That's why that Magical negro movie bombed. It's like the black dude dies first thing which is averted more times than not.
Only faggots try to act like there's tropes attached to every kind of black role.

Boy, they sure gaslit the fuck out of that one. As a person who has grown up from the age of like 7 or 8 watching horror movies of all shapes and sizes, I struggle to come up with any examples.

Kinkaid in Nightmare on Elm Street 4 is the only one that jumps out at me, and even he survived the entirety of the prior one, and the entire surviving cast ends up getting it anyway, that’s how Alice gets all her powers to fight Freddy.
