Is Django a Boondocks "Catcher Freeman" rip-off?

[Ace of Spade]

Here's uncle Ruckus from Boondocks next to Samuel Jackson's character from Django.... hhhmmmmm.

Why is that entire episode flipped?

 

[zackryder]

so youtube doesnt recognize it and delete it.

but basically no, because the real catcher freeman story is nothing like Django

obvious racist movie is obvious

Definitely has a lot of allusions to it, i think they're intentional.

Tarentino does his inspirations justice.

He's actually one of the few prolific directors who hasnt taken a book, prior film or stageplay and made it into a film.

Spielberg, Francis Ford Coppolla, Elia Kazan, Peter Jackson, Billy Wilder, Orson Welles, etc., etc.

So are they more original than Quentin because they expressively take other people's work?

Fuckin' Rum Punch, i always forget it.
PWNT

He changed the plot almost entirely though, right?

 

[Peteyandjia]

No, he just changed her from white to black. And her name from Jackie Burke to Jackie Brown. Other than that everything's the same. Had to cut a lot of stuff out of the book, but that's par for the course.

 

[Da Speeit]

*white to brown

And then it's completely different, because i say so!

Would have been nice to see Ruckus in Django.

 

[leto1776]

A black man takes revenge on awhite slave owner? No, that's never been done before

 

[soggyfist]

I will have to investigate this
