"There Are Legends Of People Born With The Gift Of Making Music So True, It Can Pierce The Veil Between

People don’t understand how hard it is to get over your own personal hell. Like I give so much credit to them for literally stepping into the fear to help Janet. This is a huge example of co-regulation

he's so fine icl

"unracist those motherfuckers" vs what is said about sammie's family's church... i know what you are. how about the themes of colonialism and abusive religion that remmick perpetuates. how about remmick's co-opting of black culture. how about remmick paying no regard to a young and gifted black man's autonomy because he wants his gift to serve him. "i want your stories, i want your music"— i do not think painting remmick as this kumbaya singing advocate of peace and equality was the message in this movie, but showing that racism is not just klansmen who say the hard r and lynch black people (which is essentially what remmick was doing as well). even the music he plays says this— the blending of cultures as sammy transcends time with his music, you see all sorts, but remmick is solely focused on white music, his irish heritage is his only focus in his music. "unracist those motherfuckers" no! he just made them a different form of racist! juxtaposition lol.

also michael b jordan as a blood-soaked sweating shirtless vampire thank u ryan coogler. thank u god.

the comparison of the Irish experience to the Black experience, finding out that Remmick comes from a time when the Irish were colonized... while still acknowledging that he was able to use that privilege to escape the vampire hunters... and the first thing he did was un-racist those fuckers in the home he ran in to.

and the absolute juxtaposition of Sammie escaping the vampire hivemind with his life, only to go back home to the church where he is expected to give up the music of his life to assimilate into his father's church

FUCK

Ryan fuckin Coogler the man that you are

i'm not going to shut the fuck up about this movie

no?? i'm queer and black. i assume ur white because why in your right mind would you ship a racist white colonizer with a young black man...??? like what??? it's not about you being queer, it's about the very racist and tone deaf undercurrent of this "ship".

I never thought it could be done but somehow Sinners managed to make a story about two men that want to kill each other more homoerotic than death note.

I felt an overwhelming sense of love. I'd never felt happier. I know I can't go through life expecting the world to come to me. But Nana let me dream a wonderful dream. It was like falling in love for the very first time.
