Drama at Wayland High School over a movie made 25 years ago about a famous Olympic bobsled team. I might go check it out on Netflix in protest. Been a long time since I've seen that movie. --- Who is? I am! ... Copied to Clipboard!

What's racist about it? Stereotypes of black Jamaicans?

Pretty fucked up. While embellished with movie magic it's based on an actual historical event.

Doesnt explain why anyone has a problem with Cool Runnings but trying to shed light on why the school might be hesitant to show it if they got any complaints at all. It's some dumb liberal parents who think the "fish out of water" depiction of the Jamaicans is offensive. --- - The Admiral ... Copied to Clipboard!

No fucking way, now this is something that grinds my gears. That principal should be fired and sent to prison for cancelling a showing of one of the best movies of all time.
Poor fuckin kids, every kid should be sent a copy of that movie. tremain07 posted... Sanka? You dead? I got a history of taking a little while to respond to people so my good buddy always sends that gif or a picture whenever its been a couple days. Always good for a laugh. --- ...

I received concerns from members of our community that raised my awareness about elements of the movie that could be viewed as culturally and racially insensitive. In other words, the principal think it's stupid too, but has to bend to the shitty opinions of the loud minority in their community. --- Bosses are immune to the eat command so it won't be possible to end the final boss fight of the game by eating it. -VeghEsther ...
