Who cares. He’s old and about to croak. He words are meaningless. Spike Lee did what he should have, and that was to not say anything more about the subject. We all know that white folk dont want us to know about us doing anything positive or what we have contributed to this country. We have to find out for ourselves.

We all learn something knew everyday. Screw Clint….just make sure this geriatric has a bed available in the nursing home soon.

Anyone taking these comments to heart should be ashamed at themselves…i think Spike was just making an observation and when has that ever been a crime, as much as I like Clint, he didn’t have to tell Spike to “shut his face,” that was unprofessional and uncalled for, he could’ve said his peace in a much classier way, so for this mess Clint losses two points regardless…SMH

Hey…this is nothing new. Remember Cleopatra was played by Elizabeth Taylor!

And exactly how many white people does Spike feature in his films?

Speak with your work, not criticisms of another filmmaker’s craft.

To put black soliders raising the flat would not have been accurate. So Eastwood’s right. BUT, in that accuracy, Eastwood should have illustrated WHY black soliders didn’t raise the flag. I think think that’s the point Spike is trying to make. Black soldiers during WW2, were mostly relegated to kitchen duty or other non-combat duties or rank. Hell, the armed forces weren’t even integrated until Harry Truman said, “hold up.”

It’s about time someone told Spike Lee to shut up. It annoys me how 95% of the time, he’s always talking about racism. He’s not doing the black community any favors. He’s only fueling racial tensions.

You make yourself look like fools when you unquestioningly support Spike just because hes black. Hes wrong, plain and simple. How foolish to suggest it would be better to be historically inaccurate for the sake of diversity.
