re: the Spike Lee vs. Clint Eastwood feud

any reasons why it was crap?

This is not even debatable.

Spike Lee is a overhyped, liberal media backed arse clown. Clint Eastwood will go down as one of the greatest legends in the history of cinema.

Racism only comes into this arguement because it is Spike Lee's calling card in everything he does. It is his lifelong agenda. It permeates the theme of every movie, documentary, and comment he ever makes. He has the range of a daisy air rifle as a director.

Clint Eastwood is an outstanding actor, and equally talented director that has delved into many subjects and genres over the course of his 50+ years in the movie business.

This is a fricking joke - it is blasphamous to even compare the resumes. Clint Eastwood takes shits bigger than Spike Lee's sorry arse career.

I am sick of hearing about racism. We have a black President. That shite is dead. All I keep hearing is we need to address racism, yet every time the subject is brought up, the moment you don't agree with the other point of view, you are called a racist. This is not racism. This is just facts. Do your research. Open your eyes and ears. Open your mind like you ask the other side to do, and you might learn something about the topic at hand and yourself.

Racism, the last ditch effort to even the playing field when you are getting your arse kicked by the facts.

FWIW, the last Indiana Jones film was fricking horrible. I wish that movie was never made. It damn near ruined the other 3 movies. George Lucas while innovative and smart is a money whore who does not know how to quite while he is ahead. He is getting as bad as Sly Stallone in beating a dead horse with a movie idea/franchise (Rocky/Rambo vs Indiana Jones/Star Wars).

Including Sears commercials?

How about She's Gotta Have It, and a whole bunch of other movies that have nothing to do with race?

I stopped reading your hack rant right there, try watching some of his movies before you knock them

I only mentioned the Indy numbers because someone up thread asked for them.

I knew I would have 1 pussy try to trash my factual arguement by finding the 1 item that was not raced based, so here you go, and thank you for taking the bait and proving my point, moron.

First of all, I dont give a frick if you read anything I post. I am not trying to impress your agenda driven racist arse.

I have seen many of his films - She's Gotta Have It, Do the Right Thing, Malcolm X, Mo Betta Blues, Katrina Crap, Jungle Fever, etc.

Tell me that 90% of his work does not deal with racial issues. You probably are not old enough to recall Spike Lee's Nike commercials into question since that does not support me either, but the fact remains that 90=% of his career is based on race and race baiting.

Some idiots think he is a genius because he gets us talking about racial issues. Wrong, he is a racial antagonist. He is a filmmaking Jesse Jackson. Both claim that they want to eliminate racism while they both rely and thrive off of it to make their living. It will never come, but I pray for the day that racism goes away completely, making one trick ponies like the good Reverend, Al Sharpton and Spike Lee obsolete. Without the very thing they preach so vehemently against, they are out of business.

Open your mind, wake up, stop being a sheep, and learn something. Being bitter about something that happened 400 years ago and had nothing to do with you is not positive.

I am not sure of their relationship, but you are right that he has been in alot of his movies. Jungle Fever and Do the Right Thing just to name a few.

I hated the last Indiana Jones movie.

you guys are crazy, read most of y'all comments, Spike has had a long time to develop his craft so he should be a good director, his best movies IMO are Macolm X, He Got Game, and Inside Man, but he put out absolute garbage when he started like School Daze. East wood has been making quality movies for awhile now, and as more than one oscar to his credit, so hands down he is the better director.

He kicks Eastwood's arse as a director, end of story.

I didnt know today was Aprils fools day yet.

Last I checked the Academy awards for the bench mark for any actor or director. Clint has 5 wins(none for best actor) for 11 nominations while Spike has is 0 for 2. The Academy is one of the most Liberal organizations out there. This years winner for best picture should remove any doubts if you dont believe me.
