Black People : Disturbing scene from Wayans Brothers "Scary Movie"

On this note, I don't even waste my time on entertainers.

Entertainment is rooted in 'escapism' but I don't want to 'mentally escape,' I want to physically build.

HTP

One thing that Ive learned is that none of this stuff is ever just entertainment. It is meant to program,control and subvert.
 
I have seen some and not all of the Wayans' presentations (some tv and a movie or two) but not all. Of the few that I have seen there is a deeper message that is camouflaged and covered over by silly crass humor that keeps those who refuse to look at different angles occupied and confused by the surface content. Here are some examples of what I am speaking of: Someone said that their TV show started with two guys playing the colored buffoons then show anger and militancy in the same scene. This is quite clear in symbolism. To the general audience (white folk) they want to appear as good and happy negroes. Then they do a switch to reveal what they really are thinking under the surface appearance. They are angery that they have to do this to please whitey. Then there you have two black men dressed in drag playing white women in a movie. Now, look at the black women who are doing everything under the sun in order to try and hide their African features and often are harmed trying to bleach or modify their skin, hair ,noses,lips, eyes and anything else that reveals their African orgins. The over the top part comes when these things are done by Black Men instead of the traditional black women. I see the Wayans trying to shock our minds so hard that we wakeup and see how rediculous we are to ourselves and the whole world. If you research you will find that many black people who are accepted by white society as "GOOD NEGROES" were really quite angery at them and would do things under cover to aid their people while shucking and bowing to them (whites) in public. The Underground System was not just the one that they told us about in white books that we read in school. We really are a deep thinking creative people when we break free of the chains that bind our thought processes and our minds. Peace
 
Like Precious.. the black folks are listed as the only writers and producers.. but here are the rest of the writers and producers...

Buddy Johnson (written by) &
Phil Beauman (written by) and
Jason Friedberg (written by) &
Aaron Seltzer (written by)

Lisa Blum .... co-producer (as Lisa Suzanne Blum)
Andra Dalto .... assistant producer
Eric L. Gold .... producer
Cary Granat .... executive producer
Brad Grey .... executive producer
Robb Wilson King .... associate producer
Lee R. Mayes .... producer
Peter Safran .... executive producer
Peter Schwerin .... executive producer
Bob Weinstein .... executive producer
Harvey Weinstein .... executive producer
Bo Zenga .... executive producer

You can see that the Wayans Brothers are minority voices in this film.. and that might be how they were able to open in so many theaters.. The movie is a combination of two other scripts.. I wonder how much of this is actually the Wayans writing. I still hold them responsible for pulling the black audience into the theater to be assaulted with these images.

Good observation!

I haven't realized that they do that with black-based films with questionable to outright ridiculous content/material.

For me, that is a jewel dropped on my melon.

Thanks.
 
stupid.. but direct. Nothing subliminal about it. The fathers advice is obviously outrageous.. and it actually implies the proper advice by flipping everything opposite. And... it has no impact without sound. Much different than the Scary Movie scene.
And this spoof is of black LA films.. by the Hudlin Brothers and John Singleton.
...Did you also catch the part where they portray the father as to being so young that he is appears to be younger than his son?

Is it possible that that part which is blue-lighted was/is likely a ploy to appeal to the sensibilities of the black community, not so much as to convey a 'message', but to continue to make movies that are overthetop in baphoonery/coonery -being successful in planting a seed in the psyche of black folks that hinders our capacity to, not only see the 'junk' and call as such, but hinders black folk from calling them to task with a considerable amount of scrutiny and disappointment? Because they are more concerned with cro$$over appeal, yet at the same time, don't want to be 'exiled' from the black community where their movie/tv show-making is concerned? ...Trying to have their cake and it too -one might say.

Just like news media, some documentarians and charlatan scholars: They give you a little truth/substance (or at times, the impression of truth/substance) to give you a diaper-load of the bull-tihs.

Making these kinds of films that they think would even hint a public scrutiny, individuals work to preempt that.

Then when all else fails, they accuse detractors of being 'haters' and or confuse the issue.
