Hancock

The guy who created Hancock is Vietnamese, so I really don't see how the story pushes Southern black stereotypes. And Hancock isn't even human anyways. So implying that the movie is racist is about as dumb as when Hitler said that Superman is Jewish (referring to the issue where he arrested Hitler and Stalin).

If the actor who played Hancock was Native American, then I would agree that its racist.

How would that be racist if he were Native American? I swear some people were born without a brain.

Because "Injuns" being nothing but alcoholics who do nothing with their life but blow their monthly government support checks on booze is a terrible stereotype that tends to be true.

You do not have a brain.

No, you do not have a brain for believing in a stereotype.

How's it been without a brain all these years?

Where do you live?

Answering that question will explain a lot as to why you don't know what you're talking about when it comes to American Indians.

Don't worry about where I live, it's no business of your's. And from that comment, it's like you're saying "Oh, you live in Alabama? You're an automatic dumbass!"

That's what I thought.

You know what I think? You're obviously a dumbass for trying to judge one's intelligence based on where he/she lives.

No, that's not it.

If you're from Europe, your knowledge of American Indians is probably only based on what you've seen in cowboy flicks. Which is nothing.

What the hell? Who said I was from Europe? And even if I were, who's to say I haven't studied different cultures? Man, how's it in stupid land?

I saw it last night, and I was pleasantly surprised. It was totally different than I had expected, way more dramatic, and I found it refreshing. I thought the story and the acting were very good, and the effects were very well done.

Sweet. 😎 Glad you enjoyed it.

Well it is a good movie..not a must watch though. The movie begins with Smith (Hancock) out of favour with the public because of the damage he
causes during his duty.What he really yearns for is love.He gets the help of a PR analyst (brilliantly portrayed by Json Bateman) and is immediately attracted to his wife (Charliza Theron)...with due course of time they find out that they are both super-humans living together for the last 3000 years and they never do age.They are created together and they will perish together too...a new plot but it's okay...considering "I am legend" gave you headaches, this one could be watched once...

Please use the "Search Function" before making a new thread, percept. The Hancock thread was on the very same page you made your thread.

A hard-living superhero who has fallen out of favor with the public enters into a questionable relationship with the wife of the public relations professional who's trying to repair his image.

With Will Smith, Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman.

I loved this! Will Smith is hilarious as usual and I really enjoyed the humour between his and Theron's character.

Spoiler:
The bit with the obnoxious kid who keeps calling Hancock an '@sshole' until Hancock throws him up into the air to terrify him, absolutely classic.

Anyone else seen this yet and what did you think? 😊

It could have been a lot better.

um... ma'am?
