so the white dude who made the uncle tom movie The Help is directing it. the movie will now suck. the end

diggy · 11-03-2012, 10:18 PM

why was he fired?

theheavens · 11-03-2012, 10:20 PM

not sure. the producer, Brian Grazer, fired him. ironically he's the same dude who hired Spike to direct Inside Man

lol @ the title of the article being 'white director takes over'. That rolling out site sounds mad with fingers snapping.

theheavens · 11-04-2012, 12:17 AM

it doesn't matter that a white director took over. what matters is that a shitty director took over. Spike already proved he can make a great biopic with Malcolm X. the producer is just chicken shit and took the safe route

DVSK · 11-04-2012, 08:21 AM

also...it is a white director.

GZAjector · 11-04-2012, 09:25 AM

don't forget that it's also a white director.

they should just make a movie about the making of the movie.

it should be directed by the hughes brothers

and star

jermaine dupri as spike lee
channing tatum as tate taylor
and beyonce as james brown

grammy!

DVSK · 11-04-2012, 10:31 AM

RADIOACTIVE MAN · 11-04-2012, 11:23 AM

Ya, I'm thinking he may have opened up his mouth about some race talk instead of keeping his opinions to himself.

theheavens · 11-04-2012, 03:57 PM

Spike already has the Michael Jackson documentary (Bad 25) coming out on Thanksgiving, and he's directing the remake of the South Korean film Oldboy (awesome movie!), and he's supposedly making a sequel to Inside Man

still, this movie is going to suck without Spike directing it. too many Spike haters out there. the dude can direct, don't give a shit about his politics

RADIOACTIVE MAN · 11-04-2012, 05:25 PM

Why the fuck do they have to touch such a class as old boy...why??
