Could be fun, or could be lame. I laughed at a few things in the trailer so I think it will be fun.

I can't really decide if I'd consider it racist, but I don't think I really care either. I think it looks like a funny movie, and that's all that matters for me. Might check it out someday.

Lol looks funny, I'll probably watch it. Dumbest thing I've heard in a while is black people can't be racist a lot of people actually think this, for some reason they think only white people can be racist


this is true and one of the many reasons I fear for the human race. When some alien overloards army finally reach us do you really think they'll care if we're black or white! Imagine the aliens came along and were like "we lav you white people" but to black people "kill them all". At least then we'll have a billion michael jacksons. Dun dun, dun dun......



Looks to just be a satire poking fun at stereotypes and I don't think there is anything wrong with that.

Touche.



A movie directly targeting an ethnicity with criticism and stereotyping that entire enthnicity. Yes....Clearly the definition of racist.



The movie has released in the US today. I'm going to see it tonight and post my thoughts afterwords. If you're going to see it or have seen it, let us know!
