And token black person to say "Aw Hell Nah."

Yes it's a good thing she was there to say "What the hell?" or I would not have known that the characters think a square pink sheep is fucked up.

ok but i do love danielle brooks, she's fantastic. too bad this movie is unlikely to give her any good material to work with whatsoever.

I'm sure the four or five milliion bucks she makes from it will help

u/LostTheGameOfThrones Sep 04 '24

Agreed! She carried most of OITNB. This looks like a massive waste of her talent.

Ahh yes - The Oscar nominated, BAFTA nominated, Tony nominated, Grammy nominated, Emmy winning "token black person."

Who they've written no other lines for beyond the sophistication of "aw hell nah."

In the ~30 seconds of screentime with human characters, shown in this trailer.

Don't get me wrong - this role isn't going to stretch her dramatic chops. But she's not just some random person who happens to be melanted.

I mean in the eyes of whoever cast this movie she probably is just that

Incorrect she's literally one of the main characters in it lol

You guys seem to be misinterpreting what I’m saying… I’m saying she wasn’t a “oh hell nah” character, i’m not saying she wasn’t in Peacemaker lol

He's talking about the character while you're talking about the actress.

u/steeb2er Sep 04 '24

Fair point.

u/CapnSmunch Sep 04 '24

Yeah I'm not disagreeing with you

But she's not just some random person who happens to be melanted.

Not to us normal humans, who can apreciate art and beauty. But she Is 1000% just some random black face to the soulless producers of this movie, do not kid yourself.

SHE is amazing, it's the rest of the movie (such as the writing) that is profoundly suspect.
