No. There's already been some reports around the net of some white folks naturally being uncomfortable going because of others already having bad experiences. Not knowing what to laugh at and what not to cause of some of the black folks around in the theatre. Some have taken offense or looked at them the wrong way so to speak. Can't say this completely surprises me.

Exactly if you watch the movie you'll see that it has some comedy elements which understandably a lot of ppl may find offensive that in certain parts their making fun of such a sensitive topic. One of my friends was actually starting to get a little mad because this one white guy behind us would laugh when they said the N word even when it wasn't supposed to be funny or laugh at some of the racist remarks that were not intentionally humorous.
And another thing slavery is a part of all of us still, it's one of the biggest factors to the construction of this country we still benefit from the effects of slavery and were still effected but the social ills that still exist as a result of slavery. I don't think White ppl today should feel guilty about it but I do think most white ppl need to be better educated on slavery especially how slavery and the following 150 years or so of legal and socio economic oppression still greatly effects the black community today. I know a lot of White ppl who say slavery ended like 150 years ago we should just forget it, it has nothing to do with today and thats a problem in my opinion.

I really didn't like it, I thought it was boring in some parts, to long some of the scenes were not needed, but Leo did great as usual.

He really cut his hand but I'm pretty sure that particular part was fake. I highly doubt she would have been cool with that.

I really think Waltz did a fantastic job with his character. He should get an award for that, he made the movie, IMO.

He & Samuel were the best to me, along with DiCaprio not too far behind, but based off the fact that of those three Waltz got the most screen time by far, he should definitely get an award if any are to get one.I really think Waltz did a fantastic job with his character. He should get an award for that, he made the movie, IMO.

The whole ending could have been avoided if Waltz would have accepted the handshake and not shot Leo
