I hate what Mel Gibson said and there is no excuse but I do have to confess that I saw the movie and I loved it.

I wanted to see it because it's part of my history. Somewhere down the line I'm connected to Mayan Indians. I thought the story, the costumes and the cinematography was out of this world. AMAZING.

That's cool that it is about your own ancestors! One of the reasons I want to see the movie is to get a glimpse of what life was like for the Mayans. I'm glad you enjoyed it.



It's funny that for a long time the AZTECS were the ones that were supposed to have been the violent ones. MAYANS were just as violent as they were.

You don't have to confess, it ain't like you're supporting the crack invasion, you're having a good time. What the hell is wrong with that? smile

Folks can judge all they want to, fuck 'em.



I like you. Thanks!
hug

this movie won't even half it's impact on regular tv/dvd, because you will miss all the details and texture that make you feel like you are there.

not sure if i want to go that far but when i see threads like those created during the Richards fiasco and then i see threads were folks slam a show like The View for tokenism then i see a dismissiveness about Gibson's racism and it just makes we wonder.

i don't wanna turn this thread into a race discussion though so let me shut up.

lol

Here we go again rolleyes

Dont be shocked. Should I stop watching Seinfeld just cos some dumb motherfucker fucked up bad? Thats his burden to deal with not mine. Doesn't mean I have to boycott the show, hell, I'm still a fan.

And If my enjoyment of that movie makes me a hypocrite "racist" to everybody's eyes, then thats up to them shrug
