For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

the funniest thing about it is the sjws that celebrate it while having hypersensitive moral systems that say poo poo like you cant have sex while drunk or its rape.

meanwhile i grew up in a mostly black area with coke gang problems which had such enriching experiences like both of my sisters being gang raped on the school bus in middleschool, my brother having life long problems from bone fractures he got from getting beaten so badly, and my mind being demented from all the violence, death threats, murders, and rape that happened to people i grew up with. yea lets celebrate that!

idk what you're talking about re the SJWs who are so insane they say 'all drunk sex = rape' (although obv if you are sober and gently caress a hosed up girl that's kind of sleazy and rapey for sure and if she is passed out then yeah it's rape) but at the same time celebrate gang culture

but I will say I think you're missing the point if you think this movie is just a celebration of gang culture. If anything the whole movie is about how hosed it is to live like that and how the only way out is to hope you hit the lottery whether it be the literal lottery or the lottery of being a music artist or sports pro.

A whole lot of idiots who want to glorify gang culture (moronic pre-teens and teenagers) are seeing it exactly as that. But really that poo poo's on their parents for letting them run out and watch poo poo without proper supervision and context. Personally I thought it was a good movie that had a message and that beating the poo poo out of a 90s radio DJ is a pretty reasonable thing to do.

fair enough but to judge something based on the idiots that misinterpret or idiot fans is unfair is all. movie is good and at no point did I think it glorified gang culture.

if anything it portrayed Suge Knight as a hosed up person and idk who'd want to emulate that.

I kept thinking nobody in the movie could act and I really wanted to be watching Boyz N The Hood instead but I have to watch this because people say it's good but I'm still waiting for it to get good but it never does. Well that's my review.

this movie didnt celebrate gang culture at all, they literally monologue that out to you during the scene with the gangbanger on the school bus. i'm guessing most of the people who say it celebrates gang culture didnt actually see it but whatevs

For me, the most upsetting part of Straight outta Compton is that the scene where the Bloods get on the school bus, they didn't gang rape all the kids to show the audience how bad the ghetto is. Quite the oversight by the director.

I just re-watched Boyz n the Hood recently and it is kind of like an after school special but not necessarily in a bad way. It was a pretty good balance of "hey, check out this hardcore gangster movie" balanced with some heavy handed talk about gentrification, gender roles, AIDS, drugs, and violence. It helps that it had a lot of very talented actors in it as well.

Compare it to Menace II Society which was mostly just "hood movie" with a little bit of a message tacked on so sloppily that most people probably missed the point. The only thing the lead actor in that movie ever did after that was a lovely FMV CYOA game. Retsuprae did a pretty good longplay RP of it that's worth watching.

it isn't as good as Don't Be Menace to South Central While Drinkin Your Juice in da Hood

just gonna do whatever I want to do, all the time

it's a pretty good film. the first half hour drags a bit and doesn't have particularly good dialogue but it picks up, and the Eazy decline stuff is a bit insubstantial and doesn't hit as well as it should but it's pretty good. i was just kinda disappointed that it was so loving sanitised. for one of the most subversive and controversial groups of the last 30 years they sure released an almost completely inoffensive movie. i was hoping it'd at least be a bit candid but it was like the only reason they even admitted Eazy had some negative character traits was that he was too dead to protest

Wasn't Dr. Dre involved in its production? No big surprise that it had little to nothing negative to say about them.
