Turned down the Matrix because "it sounded stupid"

>hindsight
Except his reasons for turning down those movies (especially Django) are stupid.

>I HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO KILL HIM

>nigger unchained

The matrix sounded stupid and 25 years later it still sounds stupid it was just a hit. I don't think it would have been as big of a movie without Keanu.

And I would have passed on Django. He made his career as a throwback 80s style crossover star who was able to appeal to white people and black people equally. He was a rare actor who transcended race. Django would not have been the right fit for him and if it was a flop it would have ruined 30 years of good vibes he created between him and the white people who paid to see his movies.

Take a look at Google Maps for Beverly Park, California. Aka the even more super exclusive version of Beverly Hills. Second from the top of the hill of the private drive is Sir Rod Stewart's house. Past Rod the Mod's house and three times the size is Will Smith's house.

Jamie Foxx was always a b list black movie actor who tried to act hoodier than what he was. The perfect choice for Django because if it turned out to be a hot turd he could have just gone back to movies where he played a cop who yells.

This and most certainly with Will Smith. I bet he would've made stupid script changes and stuff

Why do you fags have to shit up every board?
Go back to your quarantine shithole

But if he would have taken Foxx role in Django, wouldn't he have killed the bad guy?

>Is this the most retarded actor in Hollywood history?
No that would be you.

Nah, Tarantino doesn't let actors boss him around. I think he tried to convince Tarantino to change the script but failed.

He's not the main character in Aladdin. Besides, no one went to Aladdin because of fucking Will Smith.

I, robot was kinda okay even though I know for a fact that the protag wouldn't be like how will smith performed him to be.

The guy was the biggest/second-biggest movie star in America for a decade. Can't really shit on him.

I don't remember anything about it except Harlan Ellison getting mad. But he seems like a person who gets mad at butterflies and bunnies

I mean sorta. When anyone talks About suicide squad they say will Smith was the best part

I really respect that. Takes a lot of confidence to reject nepotism, and he even went on to be successful

No, Calvin Candie (di Caprio) was killed by Dr. Schultz (Waltz)

>Jamie Foxx was always a b list black movie actor
He was even more of a egotistical asshole than smith yet he was able to tone down his ego and listen to a director. I remembered him in an interview about django saying he had to put down his multi platinum records, his fancy cars, and forget who the Jamie Foxx was in order to play a slave. What an asshole. You can even see it in leo's face as he said it that this guy is a top of the list self-important asshole.

There is no problem if you dont like the movie on itself, but if you hate it solely because a black dude is the good guy, you are just racist and retarded, so you know >

Kill yourself you disgusting racist.

Yeah you are right, in my memory I always saw Jackson at the end as the bad guy (because he fucked the whole Brundhilde thing up) but Candie of course was the real master.

>implying theres smart actors

is it true Jamie Foxx fucked Will Smiths wife in a crowded room full of people?

I guess I'm alone in thinking After Earth wasnt so bad. I'd definitely watch it again over TLJ

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! "B-b-but he got into MIT!" FUCKING LOL AT THAT STUPID FUCKING FAGGOT AHAHAHAHAHA

Ok so there's these aliens that can smell human fear, right? They're completely blind otherwise. And they absolutely BTFO people. Until one guy completely without fear shows up to turn the tide, since they can't see him. That's Will. Then a couple of years later they crashland on a planet(that's actually Earth epic twist right?) with one of the aliens getting lose from its cage, and now Will 2.0 has to learn not to feel any fear to be able to take it on. Throughout the movie there's this shit that seems to hint at it not being a fear thing at all, but something to do with smell, like you can somehow acquire the smell of the alien from mixing your blood or something. Except it goes nowhere and it turns out it really is just the stupid fear thing.

The fact that they wanted Connery for Gandalf shows how bad Peter Jackson’s instincts always were. So many things about LotR accidentally went in his favor.

He said he couldn't do Matrix justice due to the concepts present. Totally not the same thing. Also, Django might've been a problem because of the general subject matter. Will has a brand to stick to.

>not wanting Connery to say "Fly, you foolsh"

Nah. The guy who couldn't wrap his head around basic math is. Was it Cuba Gooding Jr? I don't remember his name.

I would have had respect for him if he insisted the original ending of I am Legend. Saw the alt ending on YouTube and it was great.

That's not being retarded, that's mental health problems getting out of control. The dude needs meds.

Also his wife thinks about 2pac every single night.

The word retard has been thrown around for the most innocuous thing now that I assumed OP just meant "foolish" instead of clinical mental retardation.

Like that one user said i respect him for saying no to nepotism.

>free ride at mit
>doesn't take it

how the fuck did he become successful

>i respect him for saying no to nepotism.
>puts his son in a shitty 50+ million dollar movie only because the turd is his son
ye.. say no to nepotism. much respect, so based

Yeah but he's not being foolish like Will Smith or other actors not taking good gigs. He's got legit untreated mental health problems that's gotten past the point of hiding. If he got on some meds he wouldn't be trying to prove 1*1=2 or whatever it was he tried to prove, or act violent and irrational which is why they don't like him on set.

the good german schultz is the good guy (in a deliberate contrast to his previous bad german role of landa), and the de facto main character of the movie
that is why will smith turned it down, because he was smart enough to see it in the script
not because he didn't get to kill the bad guy like morons think
django is a non character

ops mean to refer to instead

Django is only there to offset all the white guys saying nigger
Foxx in the end proves that he is the niggest of them all

Ha, it's more of a qualifier than anything else (it won't get you in the door, but it could prevent you from getting in), but in many ways I actually envy what I understand of the European higher education system. For instance, over here we have a large section of students spending $200,000 to get a 'Communication' or 'Gender Studies' degree, not something that will actually have application in the market.

The first poster is right though, Django Un-Italianed is absolute trash

Smith doesn't seem to like violent or negative movies and music, that's probably why he passed on those. I know he did Bad Boys but those were basically comedies.

>I actually envy what I understand of the European higher education system
It only really works in Germany though, at least in the way that Americans idealize it. The better schools other than them would be those in Britain, costing you $40,000 or a private school in France (HEC, Sciences-Po) also costing you $40,000.

Slightly less expensive but don't forget that our campuses (if there is a campus), don't have drive-in pools, jaccuzis, ten-floor libraries, etc....

You guys don't understand how valuable Will Smith is, even though you make fun of him.

He's one of the last non-racist depiction of a black guy.
He allowed black guys to be considered goofy and fallible like normal humans. Any one raised with his movies had healthy relationships with their fellow blacks.

But now hes out, and once hes fully gone. That's it. We have officially recessed. Black people are untouchable. Constantly in the apologists stance, everything will cater to them, they will live conceitedly in the shade of better treatment because they will proudly believe they can never be insulted or made fun of.

Everything will be an issue, a 'step-forward' in casting and postive action.

Will Smith was just a black guy, and he was goofy, he was serious, he was lonely, and in every performance he was human.

And now...get ready for serious white-woman fucking Idris Elba's and John Boyegas. All blacks are cool now, and safe from criticism.

90's was peak social communion. We had finally reached what we fought for, and we just had to STAY there.
Hard times-goodmen - goodtimes-weakmen.

now we just make problems. I'm gonna hate black depiction once will is gone.

Extremely based post
Some tranny will seethe and tell you to back to /pol/ but you are 100% right.

My bad, meant for:

whichever movies hes in, people will say hes the best part.

in that sense, he chooses well. maybe he knows where he stands, and knows hes probably not the right pick, or whether he could play that role pretty good.

wesley snipes is finished. hes got no influence anymore.

only other guy i can think applies is Denzel Washington. A bit un-insultable, but nobody notices his blackness.
Lawrence Fishburne plays the black card now, but not as bad as the other black actors.

forest whitaker - in black panther and loves the ghetto fame he gets

samuel jackson - used to okay, but now hes part of the problem.

Money Train is such a comfy movie to watch. You have a black guy, a white guy, and a latina girl and yet their race matters little, they are just people working together and being bros to each other. If the same movie was made today, there would be some hamfisted message about racial politics and whatnot.

this
american race relations have digressed in the last 10-15 years
nobody made a big deal out of wesley snipes starring alongside sean connery or robert deniro
or a big fuzz about him being "THE LEADING MAN IN BLADE" or something like that
snipes was just coolness incarnated and probably depicted one of the most fun villains in the entire action genre

Fuck you mate, I started turning your post into a sneed reference and then noticed it already is.

I know. Just saying that he also was a black actor with similar qualties in the 90s.

>Django Unchained turned out to be be one of the best movies ever made
Kys. Will Smith as a serious actor is fucking trash and I hate black ape boys but Wild Wild West is fucking shibby

100% agree.

>american race relations have digressed in the last 10-15 years

For me the most hilarious thing is how "People of Color" has become so commonplace, which is barely any different from the old "Coloured People" that is considered racist. The left not only can't meme but they have no sense of irony.

forest whitaker was just in star wars too (The decent nuwars movie)

his career ended in the 90s. MIB was his last big role.

Maybe not best movies of all time but i think it was pretty good. Only /pol/acks ever got mad at that movie because main character was black man and it was about slavery.

Regressed. You’re not fucking wrong though. Look at black characters in the Star Wars PT/OT vs the fucking comic relief janitor in the ST. Or that insanity with “Ha look how amazing I am putting a woman lead in the new Terminator!”

I'm glad he turned down The Matrix and Django Unchained. Those movies are great with Keanu and Electro.

Django Unchained was always going to be a success, going by Tarrantino’s impecable record as a director.
Some of his films (Pulp Fiction) might not hold up after 25 years, but every single film he’s made has been a financial and critical success.
Turning down a role in a Tarrantino film is just stupid.

He turned down 2 movies and has had successful movies after. He's had a stable career.

He's 50 now. Sam Jackson's career is slowing down. He might be getting more work. Might be the go to black actor going forward.

Still mad that Wild Wild West cucked South Park: BLU's opening.

You have to understand that many of the oldfags here are actual adults now and not the edgy teens they were a decade ago. They've grown up and lost the edge. You should too, sperg.
