Promotes the idea that "bro" is white slang


Oh yes I saw this movie. Not "bro" is black slang this time, now it's that it's white slang, only the white character uses it. Stupid movie.
Nevermind the "Nazis were Nordicist" nonsense.

Unbelievable. So you're just gonna go around to all the movies that have said the word "bro" in them and throw a fit about some dumb sh * t? DON'T NOBODY CARE BUT YOU. NOBODY CARES ABOUT WHERE THE SLANG OF "BRO" ORIGINATED. NOBODY CARES!! You're sitting around missing the most important and intelligent parts of a film because you're too busy counting the number of times the word bro is used just so you can pitch a dumb ass fit about it.

How old are you? How much dumber can a person get over something as stupid and petty as someone saying the word bro in a movie? This is the dumbest sh * t ever.

You imbecile. Read again, it's not the usage that pisses me off. I love the word "bro." It's that he's trying to imply that it's white slang, kinda like F Gary Grey was implying that "bro" is black slang.
Learn to read.
That's what pisses me off.

The only one who can get away with blacks or whites saying the word is if they've done movies where Spanish or Italian character say it the most, like Forrest Whitaker, Martin Scorsese and Spike Lee have done.

I'm yet to see it with John Singleton or F Gary Grey
