And We're Off!
Earlier, I posted about how Clint Eastwood said Spike Lee needs too "shut his face" after Spike said he was pissed off that Clint didn't feature any African American soldiers in a couple of his war movies.
Spike has responded to ABC News! Spike said, "First of all, the man is not my father and we're not on a plantation either."
Escandalo! You better duck. Clint is going to throw his caramel squares at Spike.
He went on to say, "He's a great director. He makes his films, I make my films. The thing about it though, I didn't personally attack him. And a comment like 'a guy like that should shut his face' -- come on Clint, come on. He sounds like an angry old man right there."
Angry old man? Yup, that sounds like Clint. What's Spike's point?
"If he wishes, I could assemble African-American men who fought at Iwo Jima and I'd like him to tell these guys that what they did was insignificant and they did not exist. I'm not making this up. I know history. I'm a student of history. And I know the history of Hollywood and its omission of the one million African-American men and women who contributed to WWII. Not everything was John Wayne, baby." YES! That's the way I like, Spike. Nice and dirty.
Spike finished with, "In his vision of Iwo Jima, Negro soldiers did not exist. Simple as that. I have a different version."
Seriously, these two parrots need to stop squawking and start brawling! If they don't want to take part in an oiled up cage fight, they can do a good old-fashioned dance off! I bet you Clint can make that ass clap like we were at the opera.

Spike Lee plays the race card as his trump everytime. HE is a racist as they come. Look at the way he portrays Italian Americans. He goes for the white stereotype of various ethnic groups and god forbid anyone ever bring him to task for it.
Flags of our Fathers was made how many years ago and now Spike starts sputtering his bullshit??!!!
Clint is right. How come Spike didn't make a movie about blacks in the service?
Spike, you are on my boycot list. The racist shit you profess is as bad as anything that the aryan nation holds dear.
Hi All you Sluts and Happy Friday---
"I bet you Clint can make that ass clap like we were at the opera."
OMG----I was drinking a big bottle of Fuze and the Lime Grapefruit shot out my nose when I read that. And I just cleaned the desk room because I am having people in tomorrow eve for a dinner party. Now I have to clean up the desk and keyboard area again....LOL...maybe the carpet, too. It's all sticky, too-----I don't want the guests to think I have been doing naughty things on my computer; oh, fuck it-----they already know.

African American here. Spike should take Clint's advice and shut the fuck up.
New Yorkers (city dwellers) see everything thru the prism of race. Ever see Gangs of New York?? Irish, Italian, Jews, Latinos, the African diaspora, always fighting over resources and opportunities. You get your kind in positions of authority, you look out for your people. Everbody else scrambles for what's left.
That's why you can't talk to New Yorkers about racial matters. They see it day in and day out, they're tainted.
High School called. It wants its drama back.

In unrelated news, Spike Lee realized that after all these years, he still hasn't had a movie that would qualify as a hit.
***********************************************
My life is nothing but a convoluted drinking game.
A soldier is a soldier. Come on. The two films are about specific historical events, with some liberties taken of course. I doubt that Flags of our fathers or Iwo Jima were made with the express intent of leaving out African American war heroes, it's just the way the stories were written. Spike needs to stop policing the film industry for infractions regarding race. It is people like him who continually see color and separation. If he feels so strongly on the subject, isn't he free to make a war movie and base it on African American WWII heroes? Attacking Clint is ridiculous and petty. Clint should go Dirty Harry on his ass! Next he will be bitching about the exclusion of African Americans' from "Paint Your Wagon" Is he pissed when African Americans' are not represented in a Valtrex commercial? He is so militant. Remember when he was trying to sue Spike t.v for stealing his name? He is a douche. Bitter, bitter.

agreed, they are both equallly annoying me with this childish back and forth...you'd think as they got older they would crave the attention that they so obviously do...blah, I wash my hands clean of this now
Fuck Spike Lee and his crazy, racist bullshit. I'm so sick of his crap and his crappy movies. His whole life revolves around being black. How sad that his race is the only big influence in his world. It's not important to me in the least.
Hey, I'm fat .. so what about all the fat soldiers who weren't honored for their sacrifice on IWO JIMA, and whose stories haven't been told. What about the Jewish soldiers ... JESUS, get the fuck over it. The movie was about the core group that raised the flag. There wasn't a black guy with them.

What does it F***ing matter what color they were? They were all soldiers who fought and died for us.
-----------------------------------
Well, here's an interesting point of view:
Throughout most of our wars, black men were considered undesirable soldiers to the military. Time and time again, from the Revolution to WWI, black men were accused of being too cowardly, too stupid and too weak to have the skills to fight in a battle. They were shunned by many of their white counterparts, shunted into segregated units and during WWI and WWII, white Americans treated them with contempt and tried to teach this contempt to the British and French troops and citizens when black and white troops were sent overseas (and poor black women–they didn’t get the glamor of being a nurse. Only two black nurses were permitted to travel overseas during WWI).
Barring racism, this oversight is highly disrespectful to the men and women of all colors who risked their lives in battle, and to their descendants. To render these people not only nameless, but faceless, gives the impression that they aren’t considered a human beings. I look at photographs of these veterans and it hits me: this is someone’s grandfather, uncle, great-grandfather, brother, sister, aunt, niece, nephew, son, sister, etcetera. They aren’t simply bodies and numbers and movements. These were (and are) living, breathing, walking, talking people with hopes, dreams, loves, fears and courage who have a right to have their stories told not as some token gesture, but because they were there too.

Spike is always the victim. He's an annoying fuck. You'd never know he was a director, I'd have thought his job was to make the public aware of perceived racial slights. Instead of focusing on the real shyt, he's focusing on Clint Eastwood? Get the hell out of here.
Like Eastwood said, if Spike doesn't like it, he can go make his own film. I guess picking on other filmmakers is his way of staying in the headlines, seeing as how he hasn't made a good movie in years.
OH SHADDDDDUPPPP SPIKE! LOL
What an idiot.

Spike should assemble all of the African American soldiers he mentioned and MAKE HIS OWN MOVIE. And then he should shut his face. As a black woman, I don't have a problem with Clint Eastwood and the way he casts or produces his films. He has probably given more work to Forrest Whittaker and Morgan Freeman than Spike has.
Spike, we have enjoyed your publicity stunt for your upcoming movie. Now shut it. It's embarrassing. And unnecessary.
DeeDee: that's right! He loves the Knicks. I am slowly forgiving that team for leaving the coach they had longer than needed.

I once sat next to Spike during a Broadway show: "Kiss of the Spider Woman", with Venessa Williams, in the early '90s.
First of all, he was all in white like some miniature Famous Amos.
But what was really nuts was that he kept jumping out of his seat, blabbing about what a "beautiful strong black woman" Vanessa Williams was. He's saying this to me, as if I care! But I could see his date cared because that beautiful strong black woman looked like she wanted to kick the teeth out of his big annoying mouth.
True story.
I know someone here will agree with Spike....some commenter last week made a comment about "white people being horrible role models"
I forget who though.....

Spike is the racist person who think everyone is racist
Fifty years ago, on July 26, 1948 President Harry Truman issued Executive Order 9981. The order brought an end to racial segregation within the ranks of the United States military forces.
The war was over by 1948, Spike, guess you're not as good of a student as you profess to be.

Voice of Reason...i think i love you!
Spike has a lot of hate for white america and it's about time someone told him to shut it!
What did he say...he's a student of history, but then says, "In his vision of Iwo Jima, Negro soldiers did not exist. Simple as that. I have a different version."
History is not about versions...it's about what actually happened and Clint tells stories as they are reported on the books. Maybe the books are wrong, who knows, but Clint takes it as it is...so, the one question you need to ask youself is: Am I feeling lucky? Well, are ya...PUNK!?
Spike is just suffering from Napoleonic issues, IMO. Don't tell him I said that though because he'd call me a racist.
Fuck you spike, you don't make any other films then 'black films' and in all you put down your own people and make the 'whit man' look bad you idiot...it is 2008 you fuck and by the way dumbass...IT IS A FUCKING MOVIE!!!
Plantation? Spike Lee, you big fat racist! I'm so tired of all this race-this race-that shit.
Either way, Clint Eastwood trumps him in just about every category when it comes to filmmaking.

LOL! True. My bad.
Spike would have more credibility if he wasn't so fucking racist himself. Look at how he's portrayed jews and whites in some of his films and how he won't hire anyone but blacks to work on his movies.
Shut your whore mouth, Spike.
Not to mention, how he sued "Spike TV" because he didn't like them using the name. What an asshat this guy is, and I am actually speaking as a fan of some of his movies.
Ok. Spike, cool it man. This ain't Boyz in da hood

Excuse my manners
Spike Lee made a couple of good films, I'll admit it. But he has been a has been for a long long time now & either needs to shut up or prove himself.
Now Clint on the other hand, he can do no wrong, but maybe that's just cause I got a huge grampy crush on him.
Did anyone see him in Bridges of Madison County? MAN!!!!!

People Suck!
Yikes, I read about this at celebrityprayerlist.com too
Spike is just mad that the Knicks didn't make the playoffs, again.

what a whiny lil' snivelling bitch Spike is turning out to be. Sometimes you just let seniors have the last word to be polite, even if you don't agree. It's called class.

*I used to Love Celebrities, now I just love to Hate them!*
Tell me again how insinuating Clint is racist, and the press gave him a pass for being racist, is not a personal attack? I'd take it personally.
If he is as he says, a true student of history, and wants more of the African American experience in WWII depicted in film, why not do it himself? What war is his film set in?

Plantation? Escandalo indeed!
I did like what and how Spike said what he had to say....Team Spike
If spike's a student of history, he'd also know that black and white troops where segregated in the Military during world war II. So how could clint put an african american soldier in his films when they couldn't historically have been interacting with the main characters! I am just pointing out a historical fact! don't call the messenger a racist!
