KANSAS CITY CINEMA MOMENT TONIGHT: TKC REVIEWS A VERY BRUTAL 10 MINUTES OF 12 YEARS A SLAVE!!!



We're working on important stuff for the morning update but tonight we decided to take a "cinema moment" in order to take a break from this day devoted to volunteerism and cultural appreciation i.e. blogging.

And I totally have been wanting to see Ride Along.

So, I flash mobbed my way down to the nearest movie house and used an X-mas gift card to buy an arm load of snacks and buttery popcorn goodness.

On my way, I must have walked into the wrong theater because it was filled with white women crying and some guy taking the worst beating I've seen since that one Pacquiao fight.

It was gross.

Suddenly, I realized I was in the wrong movie because there was no Pepsi product placement.

From what I witnessed . . . I can unequivocally note:

SOME OF YOU (WHITE) PEOPLE ARE HORRIBLE AND YOUR SLAVE OWNER ANCESTORS ARE BURNING IN HELL!!!

As always, it was nice to see that Brad Pitt is one of the good ones ... Kinda like a historical nod to a TKC Tipster, or something.

Geez, that movie was a total bummer and even worse than trying to endure Ice Cube's acting.

Really a lot to deal with and I only watched about 10 minutes of it until I had to take a quick 5 minute phone call during the flick and then make it back in time for my show.

Still, I totally recommend the 12 Years A Slave for history buffs and S&M enthusiasts. I don't care how many knock-out game videos are posted as reprisal for this endorsement, that epoch in history is a shame on humanity and also quite a buzzkill for my free movie passes that my tia slaved away to give me.

More in a bit . . .

  3. "Martin Luther King" was nothing short of the battering ram used by socialists to break down the front door of our republic.

    Ever since his holiness was credited with ending segregation, it has been a never-ending wealth transfer from whites to blacks.

    It is often said of the civil rights movement and King that, "we have come a long way, but have a long way to go." That simply means that they haven't taken everything you have yet. The ultimate step for them is to get to the Robert Mugabe phase, where they simply take your land/property and kill you.

    Look at how blacks kill each other over shoes, candy, or disrespect. Does anyone really think they'd have a problem slaughtering white people?

    Slavery in America was a horrible thing. Not as absent of humanity or lacking any human value as present day Mexico, where life is of little value to the drug lords and shitty culture. You have to go to Africa to find a more worthless culture than Mexico. Now eat a piñata full of dicks.

  6. MOVIE REVIEW

    12 YEARS A SLAVE
    This is a movie featuring newcomer Michelle Obama, in which she explains how she traded her dignity, to play a "beard" for the young politically ambitious, but homosexual Barack Obama.

    The movie reviews how she was recruited by Valerie Jarrett to play the public role of wife for the man who had been fast-tracked for higher office by the powers-that-be in Washington, D.C., New York, and Chicago.

    At the conclusion of this film, we're given the indication that as soon as his Presidential duties are over, the "slave" Michelle will be liberated through divorce and set free, while Barack joins the gay beach crowd in Hawaii. Let's hope there's not a sequel!

  7. Here's what cracks me up. First of al TKC is either a world class idiot or doing a really great job impersonating one. Secondly, why would you think Tony gives a shit if you insult Mexico? He's a barrio boy with absolutely no connection to the old country and my guess is that with his name he's probably half Italian.

    As for the movie, it was okay the first time when they called it Roots.

  8. If Hollywood makes a movie about race—even if it’s supposed to be about a historical event—it turns the white people into sadistic psychopaths. I have lost count of how many newspapers and universities and state governments and Christian denominations and US Presidents have apologized for slavery. And the campaign to wipe out “negative stereotypes” has one official and honored exception: the white racist. With all these white people telling blacks how awful white people are, it’s a wonder there isn’t more black-on-white violence.

  9. If you believe press reports, Twelve Years a Slave is undeniably one of the greatest -- perhaps the greatest -- film of 2013. Not due to any skill in filmmaking, which remains to be seen, or audience response -- the film was only released last weekend. But solely because Slave (directed by Steve McQueen, not the dead one with the motorcycle, I'm pretty sure), is this year's PC film, one made for the single purpose of preaching a very contemporary and meticulously constructed racial message.

    In this it joins a number of other recent pictures such as The Help and The Butler, and even, in a twisted way, Django. These films are all examples of a generally unrecognized subgenre of the propaganda film. They are racial films designed to raise an admonishing finger toward the white audience regarding its "legacy" as slaveholders while bolstering the blacks in their conviction of victimhood.

    This type of film started with the "Roots" miniseries in 1977 and continued with The Color Purple (1985), Glory (989), and Amistad (1997). As can be seen from that list, such films generally appeared once or twice a decade. Now we have three in a little over a year's time. (Not counting Django, which is a demented reversal of the basic formula.)

    These films are generally of the "historical" genre, set in either the slavery period or the segregation era that followed. The storylines are cursory, and manipulated for political impact throughout. Characterization is on a cartoon level, with whites either evil racists or weak, vacillating types who simply go along. Blacks are uniformly noble and long-suffering. Abolitionists, where they appear, as in Amistad, are creepy religious types with their own agenda. Racial relations are the sole topic of interest, overcoming even the events of the Civil War, and leaving the impression that race, and race alone, is the crucial hinge of American history, one that swings only one way. The United States is a façade, its promise of freedom a lie, its idealism an exercise in hypocrisy. The only emotional responses allowed in this universe are outrage from blacks and guilt from whites. In a very real sense, they are the reverse image of D.W. Griffith's racist epic Birth of a Nation, which depicted blacks as vicious animals and the Klan as knights restoring an unsettled world. (It also acted as an inspiration to Woodrow Wilson in his policy toward blacks.)

    Why are these films made? To maintain the current racial status quo in all its hypocrisy, misery, and dishonesty. Such films are produced for the sole purpose of shaming whites and encouraging blacks to wallow in self-pity.

  11. Based on 2010 government statistics, more whites were killed by blacks in the last 8 years than the total number of blacks lynched during the 86-year lynching era (1882-1968).

    In 2010 there were 447 black-on-white murders [source].

    http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2010/crime-in-the-u.s.-2010/tables/10shrtbl06.xls

    Assuming that is a typical year, we project there were 3,576 whites murdered by blacks over the past eight-year period.

    There were 3,446 blacks lynched 1882-1968 [source].

    http://law2.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/shipp/lynchingsstate.html


    Note that there were also 1,297 whites lynched during this same time.

    Note also that many, if not most, of the lynching victims had committed violent crimes such as rape or murder, whereas many, if not most, of white victims of black murder were innocent victims.

  13. America’s First Chattel Slave Owner Was A Black Man


    Actual drawing of Anthony Johnson. America’s first slave owner.

    Prior to 1655 there were no legal slaves in the colonies, only indentured servants. All masters were required to free their servants after their time was up. Seven years was the limit that an indentured servant could be held. Upon their release they were granted 50 acres of land. This included any Negro purchased from slave traders. Negros were also granted 50 acres upon their release.

    Anthony Johnson was a Negro from modern-day Angola. He was brought to the US to work on a tobacco farm in 1619. In 1622 he was almost killed when Powhatan Indians attacked the farm. 52 out of 57 people on the farm perished in the attack. He married a female black servant while working on the farm.

    When Anthony was released he was legally recognized as a “free Negro” and ran a successful farm. In 1651 he held 250 acres and five black indentured servants. In 1654, it was time for Anthony to release John Casor, a black indentured servant. Instead Anthony told Casor he was extending his time. Casor left and became employed by the free white man Robert Parker.

    Anthony Johnson sued Robert Parker in the Northampton Court in 1654. In 1655, the court ruled that Anthony Johnson could hold John Casor indefinitely. The court gave judicial sanction for blacks to own slave of their own race. Thus Casor became the first permanent slave and Johnson the first slave owner.

    Whites still could not legally hold a black servant as an indefinite slave until 1670. In that year, the colonial assembly passed legislation permitting free whites, blacks, and Indians the right to own blacks as slaves.

    By 1699, the number of free blacks prompted fears of a “Negro insurrection.” Virginia Colonial ordered the repatriation of freed blacks back to Africa. Many blacks sold themselves to white masters so they would not have to go to Africa. This was the first effort to gently repatriate free blacks back to Africa. The modern nations of Sierra Leone and Liberia both originated as colonies of repatriated former black slaves.

    However, black slave owners continued to thrive in the United States.

    By 1830 there were 3,775 black families living in the South who owned black slaves. By 1860 there were about 3,000 slaves owned by black households in the city of New Orleans alone.

  16. Yes but the niggers won't admit it was one of their own who was a slave owner first. And white leaders are to fucking chicken shit to point that out all the time. But like all niggers they would rather point a finger and blame whitey for all their issues.

    Mr. Tony,
    I could not view that movie. The movie trailers were graphic enough for me. As for the current violent crime culture in Mexico, sadly our USA drug fueled lifestyle is pure poison to both countries.

  21. urrmm..slavery has been around about as long as..people have been around.

    All countries..all races.. heck The Russians and East Euros are called "Slavs" ..because they were slaves.

    All terible - but slavery still exists today, mostly in some parts of Africa.

  22. Miss Sweetie Pie,

    I only get to watch movies that are on the basic broadcast networks or on DVD's at the pawn shop. I can't afford to go to a movie theater. It will be a couple of years until I get to see this movie. But, I may chose not to watch it as well.

    I remember I did get to see the movie "The Color Purple" when it premiered in Nashville. It was at the old Court Theater near the Vanderbilt Campus. Every seat was taken, & I was the only white person in the audience (Since, I was a head taller than everyone else, I think they saw me.) It was hard to watch - I was embarrassed by what I saw, but the final triumph brought tears to my eyes.

    These racists may even believe their own revisions, minimalizations, superiority, but the cotton gin was invented, the 'Native Americans' were displaced, the land cleared, the cotton planted & one million people migrated to 'the south' to support the economy , & aristocratic fantasies, of a wealthy self-chosen few. But, its all right, because it was the will of God (or the Devil.) Dred Scott was a man, and he was a slave. It was a terrible indefencible crime against humanity, and all of you apologists should be ashamed of yourselves. You demand for yourselves what you will not give to others. Shame.

  54. Just thinking about the horror of slavery makes me want to cry out against all those west African tribal chiefs who sold their prisoners of war into a lifetime of servitute. So what if it was their long tradition to do that (as it was in other civilizations throughout history), why couldn't they be as enlightened as we are?
