I just saw Rize about an hour ago.
It is an awesome documentary about the newest dance movement in Los Angeles born out of the L.A. Riots in 1992 that is still going on today.
It is very well put together, although it does have a few "hollywood drama" moments, but overall it feels very real and non-cliché.
Highly recommended.
And if you're not, be totally relieved.Quote:
"If you're black you should see this."
I hate all these"If your black see this. If your not don't worry about it."From past expierences a lot of those movies sucked.
Oh and I'm black so don't get all "your racist" at me.
Not your thing, it's not your thing.
Just watch it before you dismiss it.
But didn't you just specify whose thing it is and isn't?
A good movie is a good movie. The race of the viewer shouldn't be an issue.
I don't know what you guys are talking about BLACKULA ROCKS!
Side Note: I watched a film that I was told is an amazing movie if you are filipino. Debut. It sucked so hard my girlfriend and I laughed the whole time. It was great. Look how PC film reviewers are! http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/debut/ Don't buy into it, this movie is trash through and through.
PS: Shindler's List. If you are Jewish you should see this.
I just saw Shindler's List about an hour ago.
It is an awesome drama about the holocaust and WW2.
It is very well put together, although it does have a few "hollywood drama" moments, but overall it feels very real and non-cliché.
Highly recommended.
Actually, Blacula is awesome. For reals.Quote:

RIZE: Back to the topic of RIZE. I now have to see it. My curiousity is getting the better of me and I'd like to see a side of the LA riots that wasn't just dumb people stealing TVs and attacking innocents.
That's the funny thing, though. The people who did the Boston Tea Party were just drunken idiots who wanted to be assholes. It just so happened in retrospect we look at them as heroes when in reality they just wanted an excuse to riot against "the man".
I'm officially going to see this. If I say it is junk though, please lay off the "you have to be black" stuff.
If you can find Blacula for cheap and you like cheese, get it. At least rent it... it actually manages to live up to the sheer ridiculousness of the title, which very few movies like that manage.
Wait, RIZE or Blacula? The first thing I said was about Blacula, then I started talking about RIZE. *edits post*
