Not true though. Fences, John Q, Book of Eli, Antwone Fisher, Remember The Titans, The Great Debaters etc., are movies of his that he didn't play any of the aforementioned roles. He might not be versatile that much, but he's played more than just those 3 roles.
What I meant to say is he usually plays himself. He talks the same, walk the same, look the same, same mannerisms and everything. He's basically Denzel Washington in each and everyone of these films.

What do you mean by "outside the biopics" as if they're not supposed to count when rating an actor's performance? undecided

Are they not films? Isn't the actor performing another character?

Asides that, seems like you're focused on the role as opposed what they did while in the role.

Come up with a valid point please, not this.
I know you're a proper Denzel fanboy but let's get real, he plays himself in every film.

I agree, she was being an idiot trying to belittle the Holocaust with such comparisons...
On another note, picking out a bit from what she said, what I've noticed is Hollywood painting anyone who is a Republican evil and be put immediately on the cancel list..
It seems like it's a crime to be a Right wing in Hollywood at the moment.
Chris Pratt has been hounded and abused severely for supposedly supporting the Republic party and till this moment he's stopped talking about politics due to prejudice all because he's not a lefty...
There is a growing picture the left media are portraying that once someone is a Republican then that person must be racist..
Shame really
American right wing or republicans or conservatives have a lot of inhumane policies.

1. They don't support public run health are which would save millions of uninsured Americans. 30 million at least. Every developed country has public healthcare.

2. Racists, KKK and white supremacists consistently vote Republican.

3. They don't support womens rights in the form of abortion and also subsidising female hygiene products eg tampons.

4. They don't support gay rights.

5. They are anti immigration.



If you are an American Republican or Conservative, there is a higher chance of you being a racist, homophobic douchebag.

Abortion isn't a right. It's murder.

4. They don't support gay rights.
LGBTQ rights, actually. Not only is it a subjective take but also a polarizing one.

5. They are anti immigration.
Another polarizing point.

If you are an American Republican or Conservative, there is a higher chance of you being a racist, homophobic douchebag.
If you're an American Democrat or Liberal, there's a higher chance of you also being a racist, facist, christianophobic douchebag.

Quick question, how does a 2020 movie do so well in Box office? I thought the bulk of box office movie revenue comes from theatre?

Raalsalghul:
You can imagine my surprise when he said that.

I just think it's because Denzel likes to play serious characters that's why he doesn't seem versatile.

What are your thoughts on this Stanfield dude?
Stanfield is a good actor with a lot of potentials. He hasn't really reached the heights that I really want him to reach that would give him enough props in Hollywood. In films like Selma, Knives Out, Straight Outta Compton, Snowden etc, he wasn't the major character or bagged the lead roles. I feel like he needs more lead roles in 1 or 2 movies with solid scripts to really get that respect he desires that will propel his career to new heights.

He got a lead role in The Photograph which I enjoyed but the movie itself ain't that solid enough to give him a big break. It's almost like the normal run-of-the-mill romance movie out there. I haven't watched Judas and the Black Messiah, his latest project, but from the ratings, it looks like it's a hit. I'd check it out next week.

In conclusion, Lakeith has the potentials, but he's not yet there yet. He still needs the big break.

You are very correct! He still needs a leading man role.

False.

Racists vote Republican overwhelmingly. The KKK, white supremacists, neo-nazis, white nationalists. All republican.

You say "socialist" as if it is a bad thing. The leftist socialists you are complaining about are actually democratic socialists or social market economy theorists- they prefer a humanistic version of capitalism.

Dont confuse it with communism you see in china.'

Clowns like you never consider what happens to the children after birth.

Abortion is a women's rights issue. Period.

It is only polarizing to homophobes and the ignorant. Gay people deserve equality and rights.

Says the black slave.

I mean, how do you sleep at night supporting a party that is racist towards yourself?

How do you feel being among the dregs of society that are homophobic?

Every developed country has socialized healthcare and gay rights. How do you feel being someone that reasons with a third world mentality?

i do not think he's not versatile. Denzel has reached a level where you do not have to play every role to prove he's good. Besides, actors get picky sometimes.

Judas and the black messiah
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Cousin9999:
Judas and the Black Messiah

It was underwhelming, but it wasn't bad. I feel like it's a movie Spike Lee should have made. I don't know if that would have made it stronger, but maybe it would have been more whole. However, I admit my expectations for a film of this nature are much higher.

It felt more like an episode than a film. And too many of the scenes and dialogue seemed like filler instead of something driving the story. I think maybe it's the lack of info to base the script on, or maybe the creatives knew they couldn't tell the real story and get studio backing.

The film really isn't about BPP or O'Neal. They're just the means by which we examine corruption, institutional racism, engineered poverty, and
black American disunity. I think the film could be not just better, but more interesting if it made these issues more of a focus. The scene with Fred and the rednecks was good in this way because he concisely and precisely pointed out how everyone gets scr3wed.

I have to say that when these films aren't done right, it's like they shouldn't be done at all. And though the film points out what was done to the BPP, many key viewers (like black youth) will likely only see this as a film about a traitor; rather than about those plotting the destruction of the BPP or about the great things the BPP was able to achieve.

Both South Korea and Japan have public run universal healthcare. In Japan, it is totally free while in Korea, the government pays for 80% of your healthcare bill.



It is not illegal to be gay in South Korea and Japan. Both South Korea and Japan have not fully recognised gay partnership. It is not illegal but you have little protections granted by the law.

As we speak, many local governments in both countries have laws protecting gays. There is already pressure in both countries for nationwide federal laws.

In both countries, one is allowed to change sex, as in tranagender.

Bro, why would a company keep a racist on its payroll?

Harry Potter Franchise (2001-2011)....9/10

Great story loaded with fun and suspense, contrasting well with the investigation into the Horcruxes, and the general buildup of dread that leads perfectly to the climax.
