116276, Yeah, my perspective on this film has changed a bit Posted by Orbit_Established, Sun Jun-01-14 01:26 PM
I still think its GREAT, think its a filmmaking tour de fource, think the acting was incredible but I'm also starting to understand the major ethical beefs
You see, I actually looked at them dudes' behavior as horrific, terrible...I felt sorry for them dudes the whole movie...at no point did I look at that shit and want to be a part of it
Apparently there is a big demographic (mostly white males) who didn't really see the movie that way...like they thought a lot of that shit was cute and cool (not talking about you at all btw)...I didn't really realize that
So that's where the whole "they are glorifying it" shit comes from
Its very cultural
To me, that movie did zero glorifying....zero...and few people love parties and pussy more than I do
But if you have that scumbag DNA (even if its deep down inside you somewhere, not apparent) then the movie might have been glorifying that life
Interesting little experience with this flick, not sure the last time I had this happen with a flick
