"So okay, you're probably going, 'Is this like a Noxzema commercial or what?' But seriously, I actually have a way normal life for a teenage girl." "Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress her."

can you imagine witnessing music so powerful that it summons the spirits of past present and future all under one roof and you try to follow it up with something as cuntless as Pick Poor Robin clean yeah of course they didn’t think you were human

yikes. u wanna be oppressed so bad.

adding, “i’m proud of my skin color” in the same post and thinking it’s a brave statement when historically you’ve had next to zero push back for that. this isn’t the radical hot take you think it is. Screencaps of ​this post (even in excerpts) and these tags are heinous:

[vardapilled]

excavating @littleblackmaps' tags because yes!! say that!!

#1. how do you gatekeep something that’s made $300 million worldwide lmao i think people just be Using Words#2. they’re mad that this story is deeply entrenched in a history they can’t extrapolate into something more comfortable#3. speak your piece but you tagged it & ppl will respond because you’re in the tag acting a fool. “idc if this gets hate” great it’s coming#4. you can tell this is the first time some ppl have had to critically engage with media and it’s not working out for them#5. no one said you couldn’t like the main characters and want this film to experience the full force of fandom & pop culture#niggas was asking y’all not to be racist weird and misogynistic???? and all of a sudden we’re the bad guys lmao#this is such low hanging fruit to me. i’m really an adult and these are… just low hanging fruits to me. too easy

Honestly? I don’t want them writing fanfics about Black characters. They do a shitty job of it anyway. I don’t want them describing Black bodies; I don’t want them describing our skin and hair. Keep Black folks out of your bullshit. Write about Remmick and stfu.

This isn’t “Just a movie.” There’s historical, ancestral, and cultural context involved. My grandmother was born in 1932. Her mother was born in 1910. This movie means something to those of us who are descendants of chattel slavery especially.

Just like I said in another post: Y’all ARE your ancestors. You’re proving that shit every single day in these tags/fandom.

Prayers up for all the black people in the sinners tag, it’s genuinely getting more and more weird in there.

[vardapilled]

imagine throwing a tantrum bc you’re told this ONE movie shouldn’t have ur grubby little white hands dominating the convo. what a loser. cry about it.

one tiny detail i loooved that showed just how intimately smoke knew annie was when he pulled out the box of matches so casually, almost like muscle memory, from behind the specific rafter in annie's home. he barely had to look at it to know it was there.

yes, i know the scene with the grave comes before this to show how grief binds them together. but that fluid movement of knowing where to put his hands to find the matchbox keyed you into seeing how often, how habitual his time was in annie's home. and on annie's end, how present smoke still was in her life–so much so that she kept a box there even in his absence.

i know i shouldnt be suprised but sinners being out for less than a week and already tumblr is fandomifying and 'poor wet pathetic cat'-ifying the main white man villain of the movie is so... disapointing??? like did the fucking point of the movie really go over your heads that badly or are you just willingly ignorant and stupid?

AND BEFORE ANYONE STARTS; im not saying you cant like remmick, he's a very interesting character, a great villain, and jack o'connell gave a great performance playing him, nor do i care if you think hes sexy, I think hes sexy

but i think to come out of a movie where vampires serve as a metaphor for how black american communities have the life sucked out of them by white people via cultural appropriation (remmick wanting to use sammie's gift to summon his own ancestors) and forced assimilation (all the turned vampires singing and dancing along with remmick's irish folk song and dance juxtaposed with the blend of cultures during sammie's song in the juke joint) and for your main take away to be 'aww the main villain is just a misunderstood sadboy' or 'idc abt the atrocities he looked sexy doing them (when the atrocities in question were racism)' then youre just being so disengenuous and antithetical to the whole point of the film?

and dont come at me with the 'let people enjoy things' bullshit, sinners is a movie FUNDAMENTALLY about racism and racial dynamics in the united states, and i do think focusing on your little y/n x [whiteboy of the month] fics and 'hes so babygirl' posts do actually stunt your own critical engagement with the message this movie was trying to convey to its audience

i think its also a disservice to remmick's character; the moral nuance that comes to light when you consider his position as an irish immigrant to the US, a victim of the colonialist british empire just like the black main cast (although in a very different way) and how, whilst his desire to reclaim his ancestry and heritage is understandable and even relatable, his pursuit of sammie and willingness to kill literally everyone else at the juke joint is allegorical for how, regardless of their own marginalisation, white people will prey upon and steal from black culture(s) and destroy/disenfranchise black communities to serve their own interests, and the movie is NOT subtle about this either, delta slim literally lays it out for us "white folks like the blues just fine, they just don't like the people who make them"

idk im yelling into the void here, the ppl im complaining about are never going to give a shit about racism or even just critically engaging with art when theres a new cute whiteboy to write fluff and angst about, but its just soooo annoying to see, yet again, how fandom spaces, which SHOULD be about uplifing and celebrating art in all its diversity and complexity, once again is nothing more than people ignoring anything that actually makes them have to confront reality and filing off the serial numbers to slot characters into pre-determined fanon molds so they can pump out incorrect quotes and coffee shop AUs en masse until the media iliterate heat death of the universe

It's just been super interesting seeing tags on some of my gif sets saying they've seen the film more than five, six times in the theater. Hilarious too after the whole "going to the movies is dead" statement from Big Netflix. If you wanna say in the tags which cinema types you went to (IMAX, IMAX 70MM, Regular Cinema, etc.) that'd be super cool too.
