I got nothing from Angela here
The thing that irks me the most is this trailer gives me a cheaper Stomp the yard/school daze/Dear White people mess
I just feel like with what's going on in chicago the story could come off way more compelling

could be a little more serious as well. Laurence Fishburn would slay me way more than Samuel L jack' tbh. This could have been some hard hitting shit, but his directing style ... idk. Sam narrating aint cute

Chhh
Angela fucks it AHP in every role! I mean she ain't a Yale School of Drama, Oscar & Emmy nominee for nothing. Woo!
And this movie is a modern day adaptation of Aristophanes's Greek Comedy 'Lysistrata'.
There's supposed to be a balance of tragedy & comedy in this. They are interconnected genres. The women are going on a sex strike to end war. It's funny because this makes the men want to get their shit together. Y'all don't know shit.

Eh....
Yeah this trailer looks weird and all over the place but spike lee's directing has always been a little off kilter.
We'll see.
Looks like your typical Spike Lee movie with a bunch of convoluted sub plots but I'm here for it.

That's kind of my issue with it. I know this is Spike's "thing" but people are dropping like flies in certain areas, nothing is comedic about it.
Like innocent ppl being axed for no reason.
Children being forced into gangs.
Food deserts for miles
and this fag has Nick Cannon rapping over a 2cent track, Samuel romanticizing these issues, and insinuating that all of the intersects of the issues can be solved through sex or lack thereof? Spike fag...

Looks interesting.Seems like Spike went back to his 80s early 90s root with this.
This don't look good to me.
Looks tacky.
watched it again.
this'll be something I get on redbox when everything is sold out
It seems a bit to happy go lucky for me.

this looks bloody awful
like what in the Dear White People fuck. This shit is trash.
Seems like people expect a glorification of the violence and murder. Were you guys expecting a Menace II Society mess owt from Spike Lee?
:omgwatshappening:
An interview from Spike
QuoteWell, can you lift your own gag order just a little? Is it a musical?
[Grins coyly.] Music is an integral part of every film I make. I would not classify it as a musical, though.
Spoken word?
Yeah, a lot of it.
And Lysistrata?
Are you familiar with the play?
Yes. It seems kind of a quirky conceit for such a serious subject.
Well, this play was written by the Greek playwright Aristophanes, 411 B.C. The lead character was tired of the war between the Trojans [actually, the Athenians] and the Spartans. So she came up with this amazing idea: We could make our men put down their spears, their knives, whatever, if we get all the women together and withhold sex, have a sex strike.
Kevin Willmott?he?s the cowriter?he wrote that version of the script six years ago. We tried to get it done, couldn?t. So we put it down. And then when there was this upsurge of Trayvon [Martin], Mike Brown, Eric Garner?you could go on forever?I said, ?Kevin, you still have that script? We should rewrite it together. We?ll keep the premise, Lysistrata, but move it to Chicago, today, South Side.?
So how do you answer those who question the use of an ancient sex farce to tell such a deeply painful, deeply serious story as gun violence?
That?s why we couldn?t get it done at first. People didn?t get it. When we went to Sundance, everybody said no but Amazon. And we had to have two readings for Amazon. They had to hear the words, not read it, and that?s when we got the green light.
But what about the tone?
It is possible to address a very serious subject matter and still have humor. I?ve done it before. Do the Right Thing was serious as hell. It was so serious you can still show that film today?it?s still contemporary. But Do the Right Thing was also funny as a motherfucker. Another example?one of my favorite films, one of my favorite filmmakers: Stanley Kubrick, Dr. Strangelove. What?s more serious than the planet?s destruction? But that movie was hilarious. There are many examples?music, plays, novels, movies?where humor has been injected into very serious subject matter.
So people need to relax. They need to stop thinking I?m gonna make light of the loss of life. Please. Calm down. Father Pfleger would have kicked me. He would have damned me to hell a long time ago. C?mon, that?s not who I am. Why would I do that?

The comment section on youtube, lots of Chicago natives complaining that it's not gritty/gully enough
I don't think gritty is glorifying tho. I think people want something more serious, real and authentic.

gur... it's artistic expression. The writers didn't have to apply every aspect of the play toward the film's plot. Lysistrata, the play, is too old to be funny in current times anyway.
