neutral · AI labelView post →Today's movie recommendation is "The Hate U Give", based on the best-selling novel by Angie Thomas. Powerful performances drive this intense movie that every single White Person should watch. A $4 rental on most steaming services, this movie more than worth it. #Movies
positive · AI labelView post →but I think there's a major blind spot in the movie, which is the black audience for this stuff. It wasn't only white people reading The Hate U Give and Push by Sapphire. I mean, he's out there promoting on Knockoff Wendy Williams, so he must have some kind of black readership. what do they think?
neutral · AI labelView post →The Hate U Give? Suggestion from white, middle-aged husband. Think there is a movie adaptation for some members
neutral · AI labelView post →Isn't this what happened to the author who wrote THE HATE U GIVE when casting news for the movie released? No matter what she said re: who she used in her mind as a phenotype when she wrote the character, some ppl stayed 🤡 her & also the actress? #booksky #booktok www.instagram.com/reel/DYZuTb9...
neutral · AI labelView post →Umm I’m watching The Hate U Give and did Cody Rhodes steal that line about seeing color from this movie that got him so much attention from aoc and others

positive · AI labelView post →Just watched the movie “The Hate U Give” with my 13 year old daughter. Shook We both cried the whole time 100% worth watching with your teens
positive · AI labelView post →But it is very cool that Amandla as Rue and the racist backlash about that was an inspiration for her to write the books and now Amandla has been cast in the movie. The author did choose to go with Temple Hill from the beginning because of The Hate U Give also. :)

neutral · AI labelView post →On the Come Up, mentioned below, is, by the way, based on the second novel of the same name by Angie Thomas, the first one being The Hate U Give which was a good book and a pretty good film.
positive · AI labelView post →I just realized that I gave one of my students my “The Hate U Give” book for her class and never got it back. I got that at an exclusive HBCU premier of the movie!

neutral · AI labelView post →The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Surprising because I think this is a film and I wasn’t aware it was a book. It is considered controversial for challenging law enforcement. And allegedly mature language. #BannedBooksWeek #LetBooksBe #AllBooksMatter

I watched the movie first and I had to stop it within the first like 3 minutes because I was crying too hard. And the book was even more emotional. Rough but a good time.
positive · AI labelView post →I was the same way with The Hate U Give; I still haven’t seen that film because the book was so powerful (and the neighborhood so like mine growing up), that I didn’t want to see someone’s interpretation of it.

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm watching 'THE HATE U GIVE' and remember the static around that movie like yesterday. It became controversial due to Amandla being mixed, instead of them changing the circumstances of her love interest's murder. I bet Amandla railed against that plot change more than anyone. Not saying that >>

TBH, I can’t handle a Handmaid’s Tale at the moment because it feels too much like where our world is heading right now. 😭 I love The Diary of Anne Frank Wicked (which is different from the musical/movie) The Hate U Give Like Water For Chocolate Fahrenheit 451
neutral · AI labelView post →The Hate U Give (2018)The story is well-paced and thoughtfully told, with a well-selected cast that delivers strong performances. The chemistry and dynamics feel authentic and grounded. It didn’t quite reach an outstanding level. 7.5/10, @letterboxd.social review below. #drama boxd.it/8ydhVz

neutral · AI labelView post →This is well worth a read. Had no idea there was a movie of On The Come Up, which is a great YA novel by Angie Thomas, whose The Hate U Give was made into a strong, widely distributed film. So much wasted money and endeavour.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Hate U Give is a really good movie. The movie centers around racism but from the pov of a black teenager. I highly recommend it.
positive · AI labelView post →As I mentioned in a reply just now re: #TheHateUGive Cineworld secret screening walkouts, it seems to be that there is still a stigma surrounding with YA adaptations that’s hurting the film’s image despite the wide critical acclaim and fest traction. (same w/ LOVE, SIMON?)
