As a retired black airman with over 4300 flying hours, I can say well done! As a kid growing up in the 60′s, I read. stories about black airmen. I grew up on Air Force bases never seeing one black pilot or airman. I went through my own training rarely ever seeing another black airman. I served in 4 different squadrons in the Air Guard and the Air Force Reserve. I saw very few blacks in any of them. When I retired in 2000 I was the only black enlisted airman in my sqaudron. There was only a pilot left and he was a former enlisted man. I hope this movie will inspire other black men AND women, to strive to become aircrew enlisted or officer. I had the honor of meeting several ormer WWWii Tuskegee Pilots. I only hope I held up to their standards of honor…

THIS MOVIE TAKES ME BACK TO THE 90S WHEN LAWRENCE FISHBURNE STARED IN THE MOVIE TUSKEGEE AIRMEN!!!! CANT WAIT TIL IT COMES OUT IN THEATERS!!!
THIS WILL BE AWESOME , EVERY BLACK AND WHITE , AND AMERICAN KID NEED’S TO SEE AND UNDERSTAND THIS STORY …. THIS IS JUST NOT BLACK HISTORY , IT’S AMERICAN HISTORY AND PRIDE .
This has been long overdue and it’s still coming out next year.. lol
It looks good though.
YESSS!!! Can’t wait! ^_^
This is definately a must see. The lawrene Fishburne was good and this looks even better! Finally a movie with no bafoonery.
I’m looking forward to this positive and inspirational film that depicts black people in the way they should be seen.
It`s great to see a film depicting just how Black soldiers, airmen, etc. were instrumental in Americas` war…something that usually is omitted when discussing these conflicts. History is definitely something that we should be more attuned to. I`ve recently read about The ‘Bay Of Pigs’ and ‘Nagasaki’ (The second city that The US used The Atomic bomb on following Hiroshima….Nothing but two damn holocusts that The US committed among others. Anyway, the stories of Blacks in The war are definitely stories that should be told.
Peace, in the spirit of my ‘HERO’, Malcolm X
P.S. I recommend that everyone read some history when it comes to these wars/conflicts, such as ‘Normandy’, ‘Bay Of Pigs’, ‘Nagasaki’, ‘Hiroshima’, ‘Korean War’, etc., it`s mind boggling to say the least.
I actually want to see this
A film like this is an excellent test on how astute certain people must be, and how easily the non-astute can be manipulated. I am not against the depiction of historical events involving black people (even though the white man will skew and adulterate any and all historical events when he depicts them), but the fact that George Lucas produced this is very interesting. I know that the simple blacks will say that he “loves black people” because his woman is “black”, but that verifies nothing if one understands that slavemasters had numerous black concubines (and would often invite other slavemasters over to his plantation to run trains on black female slaves). The point being, that in this time of war (which will not end), this film is clearly a propaganda piece intended to inspire the multitudes of listless “African-American” males without any purpose or direction in their lives to sign up for the white man’s armed forces and once again “prove their worth”, and show that they can “die for America” as well as a caucasian male can. The caucasian uses the same stratagem in regards to his military commercials, where the focal point for potential enlistment is clearly the black male. Propaganda to glorify “dying for your country” has been in existence since there have been governments, and expendable men that need to be galvanized. Any black man that signs up for this man’s military is a complete buffoon and deserves his judgment.

The only bufoon is you. I’m tired of hearing this slave
and master crap. Sounds like the same garbage from the 60′s, written by Rap Brown and Stokely Carmichael. This is a movie stupid. I hope you come to your senses and realize that you are in the best place on this planet, flawed that it is. I think its time for you to leave the Democrat/Socialist plantation and start thinking for yourself. Nothing personal, I would like to talk to you again. Dwight
I hope the fact that George Lucas is behind this film will make the rest of Hollywood take notice of the incredible talent that black actors possess and make them write movies that portray us in a positive light!
Did ya’ll see Neyo sprinkled in there getting that movie money?! lol
Can’t wait for this movie to come out!
i am excited about seeing this…
I can’t wait to see this!!!
yay!
I believe that this movie, will have a strong impact on African American life and also other people as well , let tell you a little story base on the truth about a Black inventer, his name is Granville T. wood, not too many people know about him, granville T. Woods sold his invention the telegraphony to Alexander Graham Bell, tha became the telephone, Also Thomas Edison, try to sue granville T. Woods in court for Multiplex telegraph, each time edison try sue woods the judge told Edison this not your invention, SO Edison eventually given up and ask Woods if he would like to join his firm, Woods decline to stay on his on. If you are interested in Black inventors googel it, there is so much to learn. Im looking forward to seeing a movie made about granville T. Woods, this is a great Afrian American inventor, thats been over looked. thank you make sure you go to see The Red Tail , about the Tuskegee Airmen.
