I swear, reaching at its finest. Yet I am not the smart one. wow. You can insert any race (seeing how blacks aren't the first nor the last race to have atrocities happen to them) and "find" racial undertones.
District 9 was written and shot to display apartheid yet most of you allowed it to go over your heads and hate the movie cause it made no sense to you guys.

I kind of wanted him to get it worse than what he ended up getting. 

The scene where Caesar confronts him though was just

   One of the most powerful scenes in the movie.

The movie was great. I am waiting for the rest of this series. Even after reading the explanation I dont see the racial undertones.

 

[the yes guy]

Glad Draco Malfoy finally got what was coming for being such a %$#@ to Harry.

 

[Hahahaha]

This movie was hard, will be copped on Blu Ray.

Just looked at the totals on Fandango... it says it came in number 1 this weekend with $55 million.

I hope that it continues to make money so the studio can greenlight more sequels.

Just enjoy the movie for what it is, it's not supposed to represent anything but apes and humans.

Oh so you've only seen commercials....thats a good way to rate a movie...

I'm not rating the movie clown, but from the commercials and previews (which is all we go by), it doesn't even look like an interesting movie to go out of my way to see.

 

[witnesskb24]

Always gonna be those clowns to find a race problem with EVERYTHING smh


$*%@

 

[Clyde Frog]

Malfoy was extra corny in the movie pickin fights with chimps and holding grudges on them lol.

Movie was real good though.

I'm gonna ignore those talking about racial undertones. Too funny.

Racial undertones? People are reaching hard.

This movie was great. I loved it.

Haven't seen it yet, but a friend of mine was saying this b4 the flick came out...I didn't want to make a comment on this, as it can clearly have this type of undertone...but I wanted to know why you think so...

When Caesar was grown, they had him on a leash like LeVar Burton in Roots, had dogs barking at him like how the Police had dogs barking at Blacks in the South, of course the whole correlation between Blacks and monkeys, keeping them isolated in their own filth like on the slave ships and getting them ready to send them to a lab (like how they were auctioning them off), spraying the Apes with a water hose if they "acted" up.


Caesar reminded of a slave that stole books to educate himself, then he passed on the knowledge to other Apes. In the movie, the Apes weren't trying to hurt anybody. They wanted to be free and not be bothered by humans, but of course after treating the Apes like garbage they defended themselves and all of a sudden they were the problem.



If ya'll can't see the racial undertones in this movie, ya'll must know your history very well.

  

chill homie you reaching

 

[iheartboost]

Saw it an hour ago, movie was GREAT. Ceaser played a great roll of the Ape version of Ceaser. They hate you, you grabbed there trust and they love and respect you. One thing is for sure, when he talked, "No", everybody was shook in the theater, lol. Even I said "what the %#$%" and my boys started laughing.

 

[bigmo1002]

Dope movie

they shut the Golden state bridge down too...

 

[dead stokc]

came in here just for the racial undertones.

This aint the first "Planet of the Apes"

This is what it boils down to for the people reaching at racial undertones. It's a movie about monkeys. DEAL WITH IT.

  

 

[rawex5]

Stop feeding that troll. Anyways, movie was good.

 

[iheartboost]

Racial undertones, because it'a movie about monkeys, that happen to be of a darker color? Please, oh wise one, tell me MORE!

 

[iammd]

People that are saying there is no racial undertone is obviously misinformed. When the series first came out years ago, they were obviously portraying blacks.

Nothing to do with history, yes slaves weren't educated and were refereed to as monkeys. But for one the movie is about apes and obviously we don't let them roam free in real life so its reaching..
