Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

My black co-worker asked me today to reccomend him a white people movie, and he'd give me a black people movie.

At first I reccomended Live Die Repeat (also known as Edge of Tomorrow) then remembered Wes Anderson exists and said anything by him maybe.

He reccomended Salt and The Tourist. I intend to watch them on the weekend.

Sorry To Bother You is an amazing movie with a scene that will make any white person uncomfortable (in a good way). Bonkers cast too.

Somehow that movie was aytoplaying while I was asleep. I woke up at the very end when the symptoms show. I was thoroughly confused but intrigued.

Even with the context of the rest of the movie, that ending was completely out of left field.

I didn't even realize i was watching the same movie until I watched almost the whole thing. Amazon would do that though.

I love that movie so fucking much. It saddens me that I will never again experience the thrill of watching it with a white person (many white people in fact) in a movie theatre. I'm not sure I'd want to because it made me feel physically ill but what a thrill.
