The moment I stopped watching..


Is when queen latifa showed her face. I hate that bitch. Is it worth continue watching, or have I seen enough?

This is weird.

Can't stop the signal.

.......e____e

Dunk her in green paint and spank her like a disobedient little avocado.

Well she does die very horribly, so...

She did feel completely out of place in this movie. Her part was like if they took Ice Cube's line from Anaconda ("Is snakes out here dis big?!") and wrote her whole part around it.

Her whole contribution to the movie is "well damnz these jellyfishes is rilly aggressive yall. Theyz be stingings throughs muh suit."

I didn't think she was out of place at all. It has literally never occurred to me that she might be out of place. Maybe you folks are just biased because wtf.

reply

Any particular reason why it be biased to think she's out of place here?

reply

Bias- prejudice against a specific thing, person, or place, compared to another in an unfair manner.

-not liking the movie based solely on Q. Latifah (specific person)

-associating (comparing) this movie with past movies she has acted in.

-judging entire movie based on the appearance of one actor, that had ultimately very little screen time and/or any legitimate contribution to the plot/storyline. (unfair by most standards)

How is this NOT biased. I'm not even defending QL (or even the movie itself for that matter) as much as I'm questioning why her minimal presence in this movie is a such a big deal.

To the OP, if you are this easily annoyed, you must not make it through many movies. I guess I'm too easily entertained.

Not liking her because she's a terrible actor, is not bias. That's like saying not wanting to be treated by Doctor Lecter because he's a terrible doctor is biased.

Stop trying to stir up racist *beep* for the sake of it.

reply

Haha too funny. I can't stand her acting either and sighed a bit when I looked at the cast and seeing who her in it and who she was playing from the novel. No idea who thought that was a good casting choice or why to make her so stereotypical.

I really liked her character in the book and was a bit disheartened when she died, but while watching the film I just couldn't wait for it to happen.

reply

She's really a non-factor in this movie. Doesn't add or subtract anything and her character is dispatched almost as quickly as she's introduced.

Anyone here mentions Hotel California dies before the first line clears his lips.

The moment I stopped watching is when Sharon Stone left the movie....

You're gonna need a bigger boat.
