What was the message of this movie?
>>224030209niggers
>>224030209>What was the message of this movie?"Come to Brazil"
>>224030209Gringoslop. Watch the Coffin Joe joints or some cinema marginal kinos instead
>>224030243Brazil is the end-state of any multi-ethnic nation. It’s not necessarily African tier shitty, but it’s forever “if” and “could be” but never “is.”
>>224030317Homem Potencial
>>224030317how do you people speak so surely about dumb shit lmao. embarrassing
Don't be born in a third world triracial shithole
>>224030209>movies must have a messageI can't believe zoomers just took whatever their English teaches in school told them at face value.
>>224030209
I did not care for this shit movie at all. Just felt like I was watching a random episode of The Wire if it were made in Brazil
>>224030529Fascinating. To what do you attribute the film's widespread international popularity and acclaim?
>>224030398that was very articulate of you.
>>224030209No matter how shitty things look, live a honest life, becoming a criminal is not going to solve your problems, you are just going to get yourself killed.
>>224030209don't be an incel
>>224031224knockout Ned was a based criminal though and a dindunuffin who was sort of forced into the life. I think there's no specific allegory, but there's a general idea that those who take the sword shall die by the sword.
>>224030209around brazilians never relaxilians
>>224030209Is it true that 50% of Brazil is black?That seems highly exaggerated In America where I’m from 13% of people here are black
>>224030955It just wasn't for me.
>>224031323I've met several Brazilians and none were black so I'm gonna say no. Caribbean hispanics are more black.
Poverty, violence and corruption are cycles and it's very hard to break them.I'm not Brazilian but my country has very similar issues.
>>224031352and who are you? Thanks for nothing.
>>224031414If only you knew.. ;)
>>224031323Most Brazilians are lightskins.
>>224031451knew what
>>224031468>and who are you?>If only you knew.. ;)There, now that I spoonfed you the conversation that was literally less than 3 minutes ago you can ask grok for an epic clapback.
>>224031506Nope, I don't get it.
>>224031265God damn he makes that gun look huge.
>>224031373>I've met several BraziliansName 13 then. If not one of them is black then I'll believe you.
>>224031459this is true. I was at a developer conference and I met a Brazilian dude who was a PhD candidate for electrical engineering, he was lightskin kek.
>>224031539See, only retarded niggers like this movie.
>>224031539get what
>>224031577It would be people I check in at the hotel I worked at but they had BR passports.
Lol. By looks?
>>224031589It was a rhetorical question, you are nobody. It's unclear what I might know or how that would alter the situation. Surely your identity has no bearing on anything, and your feelings are too embarrassing to state.
>>224031618>you are nobodyif only you knew... ;)
>>224031623Knew what? It wasn't a question.
>>224031618he's siskel and ebert dudeit carries weight my guy
>>224031634It was a rectangular statement.
>>224031623You are 100% arguing with a bot. If you keep going then you are a bot too.
>>224031647This. And if you wanna keep posting on MY TURF you better watch your fuarking mouths!
>>224031647I don't recognize that tiktok handlethe identity of the shit maker doesn't matter anywaynothing for nothing>>224031651concession accepted
>>224031671grok: ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for McMuffins
>>224031693The harder you chimp out because of a simple challenge, the worse your initial take looks. Oh wait, you're not even that guy. You're the other moron, why don't you get a life. Faggot.
>>224030209don't bring a warm banana to bed
Great movie except for the main dude getting cucked. Why did he have to get cucked? Just give him a less cute gee ef if you don't want him winning too hard, but there is no need for him to be a cuck to some goofy ass. At least the guy that cucks him dies though.
>>224031964Wasnt it the other way around? I thought he took the white guys girl because he was too busy getting addicted to coke and dying like a dog
>>224030209brasil
>>224032410This is a man, isn't it
>>224030209around blacks never relax
>>224030209Toughen up buttercup
>>224032970pretty obviously i thought. being posted in a brazil thread wasn't even the giveaway.
>>224030955You cant explain why the movie was good
>>224033063it's realistic but crazy shit happenssome memorable characters too
>>224033095So was it made for the international audience or for you and your coutry?
>>224033125I dunno, why?
>>224033223I thought you knewThat's what you told everyone afterall
>>224033636I said it was popular and acclaimed outside brazil. No clue who it was made for.
>>224033925Okay, but why?
>>224031964>>224032017At first, the girl the MC was crushing on was dating a ginger cokehead, then she started hanging out with the MC only to fall in love with Lil Zé's partner who gets killed.The MC manages to lose his virginity to some hag journalist.
>>224033954this >>224033095but I get the sense you don't understand why it's an exotic setting. I'm a white american and people I knew were amazed at the conditions of the favela. It was a totally new environment for us to experience a hollywood style gangster movie. I'm getting the sense you maybe don't find depictions of poverty as striking as we do.
>>224030209God i didn't like this slop at all Forced myself to watch it for 50 minutes but that was it
>>224034374I'm just lucky I watched it 20 some odd years ago back when my attention span still had a span
>>224034231And the popularity and "acclaim"?
