Sandler and Latifah had a mother-son relationship


It was sweet, but not one bit romantic.

Latifah is a butch lesbian and Sandler looks like a guy who's addicted to banging escorts. Very odd pairing and unsurprisingly it was not convincing

She's not really very "butch". Fairly attractive, actually, in a feminine way.

It checked the woke box. That's all that matters.

I’m not a big fan of either, but she played the part just fine. There are interracial couples in reality, simply featuring one in a movie does not automatically denote “wokeness”.

reply

It is when it's in every single movie, because they force it in. So insincere at this point.

reply

You’re oversensitive if you are getting upset by the depiction of an interracial couple in a fairly apolitical movie.

I’d imagine on the other side there are people complaining about the depiction of a white basketball player and the antagonist of a black one.

Both side are snowflakes.

THESE ARE THE COMMENTS THAT LET SLIP THE TRUTH...YOU DICKHEADS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT...JUST RANTING AGAINST GAYS AND BLACKS AND WOMEN AND WHATEVER ELSE DOESN'T APPEAL TO YOU COCK.

I think Queen Latifah has some sort of connection to basketball, and that is why she was cast. If you look at her filmography, she has multiple movies connected to basketball. Just Wright comes to mind.
