[blanketshades]

samuel jackson in this movie is just so amazing, the way they accidently over dyed the film is too amazing to belief it looks so beautiful,spike lees conflict til the end is amazing, the fact that this movies speaks to all walks of life is you guessed it AMAZING, TOP 250 MOVIES EVER MADE

[taet24]

i love the saxophones on this song

[malik8991]

I wouldn't want to be any other race but black because black people are the best.

I'm not dissing any other race,but we are the original people of the earth.

All races want to be like blacks because we have the greatest people in our race....Michael Jackson,Michael Jordan,Martin Luther King Jr,Malcolm X,Oprah Winfrey,Tyler Perry,Barack Obama,Maya Angelou,Tupac Shakur,etc.

[MartinSeth93]

@malik8991 wow, you sir is a giant fucking racist. No race is better than another, period.

[alijaa38]

@malik8991 Forgot Muhammad Ali

[simplekeepitsimple]

Spike Lees most powerful joint

[prettyjuss]

doing the nasty to ya ears ya ears to the nasty lol

[19lionkingfan]

how come on a video with white people: no arguments. video with black people:arguments. its like we attract negative and racist comments. :/

[honeybun33]

the hippity hop , the stupid fresh thang , the flippity flop ! LOL ! !

[williampaul69]

This is one of those rare movies where one feels a connection with the characters involved.

[inevergiveup1402]

@IHATENIGGERLOVERS

what a shithead you are ! LOL

[retrokid62]

@IHATENIGGERLOVERS no,but you must be

[knot33]

your race is pitiful...CORNY ASS WHITE PEOPLE

[retrokid62]

@knot33 huh?

[ericwei0128]

This opening was rated the #1 movie openings of all time even saturday night fever got beat and was rated #2.

[MrNikoBellEnd]

one of my fav films

[muscleten]

wikipedia says that it is listed among the greatest films of all time, and in 1999 it was selected for preservation in the "national film registry", 1 of just 5 films to have this honor in there first year of eligibility

[TuTu99o]

LOL @ 8:32 Robin Harris is a foo (rip)

[retrokid62]

29 people don't know how to do the right thing

[retrokid62]

My movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SS0UTHB0UND]

niggers

[Dailytribe]

[MrZanetha]

I love the dancing back then.

[mrhowardb]

I need a bib anytime I watch Rosie dance during this intro....lol...

[vamtheanomaly]

@mrhowardb If more women danced like this, there wouldnt be an obesity epidemic.

[simonjeste]

@mrhowardb respectful homage in Childrens Hospital "Hot Enough for You" ending

[ilikevines]

@Averyofthemain

You misspelled faux. Oh fuck now I'm the douche.

[ScorpioJunior92]

This movie wasn't made for some peoples racist comments and ignorances which some of you are showing and most who comment are grown (which is sad)......this movie was to show an epidemic during the 80's in NYC....anyone who lived in NYC during the mid to late 80's knows people of all races were targeted. Spike lee was brave enough to give you that vision through this great movie. So either enjoy it and learn or keep being ignorant.

[taypar11]

I''m white and I love this flick. Says a lot about all of us. Ozzie Davis: RIP What a great actor he was. Also, get a fucking broom and sweep out front. By passing the buck, Mookie, Pino and his brother act like brothers with Danny Aiello acting as their father and father figure. Sal's Famous is a great place to hang out for ALL races. Jade is a babe.

[gillesssssss]

I looooooooooooooooove this movie specialy in english even if its difficult for me to understand everything. (in french, the voices are ridiculous)

I like the music, the "music of the "voices, the actors, the story, everything !!

Thanks !!

[aeropostalebunny1]

iSoRemeberTheeOpeninqCreditss !

[JASONTHEGOD1]

SPIKE LEE DOES NOT GET HIS DUE I GUESS HE HAS TO WEAR A DRESS NO PUN TYLER PERRY ... ALL THE ACTORS IN THIS MOVIE AMAZING

[sisterblister77]

What does "the platters they matter" mean??? BTW, I'm white-Italian and this is one of my fav films of all time. I think buggin out had a point. There should have been some black mf pics on the wall too.

[MrTamham]

does anybody know the name of the song playing from 4.28-6.30, whilst senor love daddy is talking?

[MARKO8885VTC]

fight the power and fuck the power (A)

[SameeOleBree24]

Damn She was Dancing for 4 Minutes!

[JimmyJones]

@SameeOleBree24 Yup. There's people that dance for hours in clubs! Can you believe that?

[hitokirimasamun]

da chick in da beginnin scares me a wee bit, she reminds me of the club scene with Tim Robins in Jacob's Ladder O_o

[Npotter14]

@HiteEmUpSideDaHead DAAMn lol, sure fooled me before that comma lmao

[kelvinmcphatter25]

SMILEY PLEASE!

[belzog]

@beverlycromwell Why isn't Obama a white president?  He's equal parts black and white. I mean, I guess i get why it's important for minorities to feel like, "Whoa, now WE have a president." but wouldn't it be more accurate to say we have a bi-racial president? Couldn't I just as accurately say, "my president is white?" I dunno, I think people make to much of the racial thing.

[TheEsquire212]

@belzog Oh NOW the one drop rule doesn't apply? But you can have that puppet, the conscious among us want no part.

[belzog]

@TheEsquire212 All politicians are puppets, that goes without saying, doesn't it?

[belzog]

HiteEmUpSideDaHead: "What good would your foot do in ANYone's ass? Sounds uncomfortable for both parties involved - not to mention smelly. Also, half the "honkies" d are women, which makes them subject to "the powers that be" as well. If you take it further, only a small percentage of honkies actually are in power, so most honky guys also have to "fight the powers that be." Isn't that unifying? Let's all get together and stick our proverbial feet up that small minority's ass together!

[IAMSAM1234567890]

Rose Perez...mmm-mmm-MMM!! To this day she a MILF!!! AND IM 11 AND I LOVE THIS WOMAN!!!!

[savykevin]

fantastic screenplay; S.L did a great job here; the dialogue is completely believe able; stunning on blu ray; perfect addition to a collection; flawless casting.

[1Certafide1]

that body nice but from the shoulders up.. eww

[Dante9630]

Los compañeros de color tienen Fight the power y los mexicanos tenemos "matando güeros" de brujería

[508shocker]

@HiteEmUpSideDaHead the artists are public enemy if you wanted to listen to it haha

[brajames1]

I could have done without the smurf in the beginning. My bad, I mean Rosie Perez. I normally like Samuel Jacks, but he is so annoying as a DJ.

[MsKwan09]

Probably the most memorable movie intro in history... but it's sooo damn long lol.. I remember one time trying to count how many times they said "fuck" or it's derivatives in this movie yeah IT'S A FREAKING LOT lol

[belzog]

@MsKwan09 sounds like a frat party drinking game?

[MsKwan09]

@belzog lmao omg you would be sooo wasted if you drank every time they said fuck. I'm sure someone did turn it into a drinking game lol

[Brittsu]

@mslckh : "Amazing Grace" wtf ?

[mslckh]

[JPfromFlint]

@mslckh The jazz sample is "Lift Every Voice and Sing" which is often called the Black national anthem

[mslckh]

[mslckh]

@1f5sda its a great DVD to own, its been 12 years since i first watched it, and still never gets old

[1f5sda]

@mslckh I'll watch it on DVD when Mom and I buy it off of Amazon. Mom says that she may enjoy the film. Anyway, I'm happy that you enjoy it. :)

[mslckh]

@1f5sda i could watch this movie all day long and never get bored, im actually goin to see Spike Lee in 12 days for this Micheal Jackson thong, and im planning on taking the movie with me so he could sign it

[1f5sda]

[MultiPlayaaa]

@MrNeverm you must be smoking shern and licking the dust

rosie perez looks like she got evicted from planet of the apes hahahahhahahhaha

[aitraining]

"...and that's the truth! Ruth!"

[MrNeverm]

This is the first movie I've seen Rosie Perez in. I thought she was the most hottest babe I've ever seen. She is reallty hot! Sense I've seen her in other roles, she is even hotter because of her awson acting tallent. She is an attention getter!!

[circask8team]

@MrNeverm wheres the part she get naked wit ice

[CatDaddy607]

[LantsTaeRee]

@CatDaddy607 no....running through your local shopping mall butt naked is crazy

[CreepyNIG]

[pamperedgurl]

@Browardking2012 red bone is an offensive term to call a lightskinned woman.

[pamperedgurl]

Get well soon Rosie!

[1978brick]

[TheEaglesfanindc]

[nuknuknuk111]

28 people did the "wrong" thing 

[iDENNiS8D]

Haha " Yo Breath stinks , Its your upper lip " Hahaha

[Thomistica]

This should have easily won the '89 Palme d'Or.

[jshrubz]

28 people didn't do the right thing

[HBILLION2011]

BLACK POWER!! I STILL GOT LOVE FOR MY WHITE PEOPLE BUT RIGHT NOW BLACK POWER!

[marvingardens]

[Cadywax]

Best film of the 80s.

[deutschland08fn]

@Cadywax Rivaled only by Raging Bull. It was a dark age for movies.

[Averyofthemain]

@Cadywax C'mon you can't be serious, of the whole 80s. People give to much credit to this flick, spike lee included.

[CompyRex]

this is m-m-ma-malcolm x

and this is m-m-m-mar-m-m-martin k-k-ki-king

[latinoheat300]

[RohainArora]

[AmazenZay26]

flaver flave lol

[raygayo]

and that's the TRUTH...RUTH

[MultiPlayaaa]

GET A BROOM SWEEP OUT FRONT

LMFAO

classic movie

[Crraabbmmaann]

didnt notice he blasted on elvis liek tht... fuckin elvis was grown through struggles nd spread through . he was "Labeled" as a racist due to the music he produced...fuckin corporate mix up nd ignorance at its best... oh nd neither is john wayne so this song can fuck itself.

[MsKwan09]

@Crraabbmmaann if I'm not mistaken he took it back for elvis but he stills says fuck john wayne however they have a point he stole music though it may not have been his intention and the company's after all those years he never admitted though it's common knowledge white artists stole and took credit for music originally done by black artists

[JimmyL84]

mother fuck him and john wayne is not a good quote.. because it was a common misconception in the black community that Elvis was racist.. he wasn't.. and it's an ignorant lyric

[Jemini29944]

@JimmyL84 Your absolutely correct. In fact, Elvis had a considerable amount of respect and influence from blacks, unfortunately, it was white people who catapulted him to the top and disregarded his influences. It seems to be a common trend among White America to rob from black culture on the backs of Whites who idealize it.

[TheBlessedPariah]

@Jemini29944 Shut the fuck up!!! I'm so sick of hearing that black man in a white man's world shit. Times have changed!!! Obama is President; Black people are gettin' money. Stop fucking worrying about white America.

[illmatic826]

the dude with the speech problem played on "All About The Benjamins" he was the dude mike epps was crackin on in the bathroom "I oughta snatch that leather wig off yo mutherfuckin head with dem suede side burns" LMFAO

[AlexDeLargeisHere]

Can someone please tell me me of the Jazz Solo from 0:00 - 0:37. I would appreciate it.

[FiswaT]

@AlexDeLargeisHere yeah im interested to know too

[Qluvz2beluved]

@AlexDeLargeisHere Lift Every Voice and Sing :)

[nunzyobuziness]

Im white an I love this flick, so all the racists here just shut up and go watch another movie and leave the masterpieces to progressive people

[elwin38]

@nunzyobuziness this movie depicts what can happen when people from other races(and backgrounds)dont get along...it doesnt incite or encourage hate.

[ScorpioJunior92]

@nunzyobuziness Couldn't have been better said.

[Averyofthemain]

@nunzyobuziness Well, I'm white and I detect a so-called 'progressive' person drunk on his own artificial intellectualism. This is not a masterpiece, it is a serviceable film, worth watching, if only for the interesting characters (minus the spike lee character, spike lee ruined the role, which in the hands of another actor would have been better) so take your mutant brand of feux-sophistication, your 'progressive' vanity, and your ill-informed film opinions somewhere else, thank you.

[Dramactica]

@Averyofthemain

so you like a Birth of a Nation?

[alanmullery]

Fuck Elvis, big fat racist

[TheMTHproductions]

G.O.A.T... S p I K E the greatest director of allllllllllllllll time an we all know it FUCK THE CRITICS

[BustersTexas]

@illmatic826 ok usa

[madamgmail]

@BustersTexas: what movies have you made? or known accomplishments?

[Fbowden24]

I just don't get why are there so many comments about what was said in the "Fight The Power" song.. If people would get hip to what's really good, they will see that it was said that John Wayne and Elvis Presley did not like people outside of their race, especially BLACKS.. But why is it so much of a focus on that? OMG..

[porkermcgee]

"GET A BROOM AND SWEEP OUT FRONT!" HAHAHAHAHA
