anyone else disturbed by how racist the movie was?

You call THAT racism? Imagine suffering that 'racism' when you apply for a job, or in school, or walking down the street.

I'll wait till it's on Netflix.

Guys report in, who saw Machete and what did you think of it?

 

[KeithTalent]

Couple of people saw it here: http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=211635&page=42

I gave it an 8.5. Naked Lindsay Lohan came from out of nowhere. Was not expecting that at all.

[PricklyPete]

mmmm...Jessica Alba...

 

[Dr. Zaus]

Racism? Lol you gotta be kidding. I went out with a bunch of my Spanish friends and they loved it. Lighten up peon.

I meant against white people

 

[us3rnotfound]

Saw this movie twice, worth every penny.

Naked Lohan was not her, it was a body double.

 

[DVad3r]

This makes my day. I log into ATOT and see this as the first post. OMG!!!

You should pat yourselves on the back muchacho's for seeing an amazing film

Viva the network!

Great flick I was fairly hammered when I saw it too.

 

[Svnla]

I went to go see it last night.

You can file it under: Awesome.

It's just one of those movies you can't take seriously, but it was a lot of fun. Plus, Jessica Alba shower scene = the hotness.

edit: lindsay lohan get naked too (for anyone that cares)

No nudity of Alba, only a side shot.

Now the Hispanic chick at the beginning of the movie, that's hot.

Plus the mom and Lohan topless scence was very decent.

Some smart alert dialogs that can make you chuckle (the priest, Machette) but the movie was trying too hard to be cool and too much politicial at the end.

Well it's far superior to Avatar, at least Machete didn't put me to sleep.

I have also seen enough Rodriguez movies to know he is a great guitar player and his movies all suck.

"Entertainment" pushing ideology bothers me.

Tools who ignore it or pretend it's not there bother me more (like my friend after watching "V for Vendetta").

We are how we are programed; media programs us.

 

[Riceninja]

after phone girl and hospital intestines, i knew it would be an instant cult classic

 

[Bateluer]

. . .best movie since Avatar!

So its a crap fest then?

 

[Homerboy]

Watched it last night. Super great.
And, I'm going out on a limb here, but Michelle Rodriguez is hotter than Alba.
There I said it.

 

[destrekor]

LOL at "racism"

It's a Mexploitation film. Remember how "racist" Blacksploitation movies were/are?
This movie is over-the-top in every way possible, and is completely exaggerating Mexican stereotypes - that's the whole idea.

And it was awesome because of it.

In this film she definitely is, especially when she puts the patch on *mrrrowwrrr*. I re-watched the first Resident Evil recently and she does not look that great in it plus she plays the same annoying character she almost always plays. At least in Machete she has more to her.
