I remember that game -- that was awesome, but didn't the Pacers lose the series?

Yup, but it was great watching the personal stuff between Reggie and Spike. The choke sign Reggie made everytime he sunk a 3 to shut Spike up was the best!

Re: Clint Eastwood Tells Spike Lee To 'shut His Face' Over Iwo Jima Movies

I like this comment made by a member on another forum that I read.

"Personally, I am outraged that there were not more white aviators in The Tuskegee Airmen."

Here's another (SPIKE) SHUT YOUR FACE!

Re: Clint Eastwood Tells Spike Lee To 'shut His Face' Over Iwo Jima Movies

Spike Lee is a racist. The movie "Letters from Iwo Jima" is the Japanese side of the battle of Iwo Jima. If Spike had any sense, he would know that there were no "negros" in the Japanese Army stationed on Iwo Jima (or anywhere else) since the movie is about that. Of course there is a few American soldiers but not many. He is a idiot to say the least. As for Clint's other movie, "Flags of our Fathers", the story is about the flag raisers of Iwo Jima. There was NO black, african-american, or negros (Spike Lees favorite word-actually 'negro' is the spanish word for 'black') on top of Mt. Subachi raising the US flag that day. So Spike Lee...quit your crying. Just because your a crappy producer and don't have any good or even "B" movies produced, don't knock another producer. Go hang out with your other racist friends like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, the new "Negro three stooges".

Re: Clint Eastwood Tells Spike Lee To 'shut His Face' Over Iwo Jima Movies

Sounds to me like this pr**k "Spike" bloke (Spike Who ?) is just trying to get on the map thru controversy, as his talent evidently don't 'cut the mustard'.

So, "Spike"; lets re-write history, eh ?

Neil Armstrong was 'Black'; Issac Newton was 'Black'; Leonardo Da Vinci, 'Black'

Oh, & I almost forgot... the Norwegians were 1st in space.... (Gagarin was from Borneo)

Yeah, right.


Well, "Spike" No-body - looks like you've won, by default


Mr "make my day, punk!" has just shot-up 1,000% , in my estimation.

Nope. The Knicks lost the series. If Spike hadn't gotten Reggie riled up "his" team, the Knicks, would have won that game. But no. The little guy just couldn't shut up when the Knicks were ahead in the final seconds. He had to make fun of Reggie, who promptly went on a tare to beat the New Yorkers. Thanks, Spike.

Re: Clint Eastwood Tells Spike Lee To 'shut His Face' Over Iwo Jima Movies

I'm not defending what Spike Lee said, but he has made some great movies. 25th Hour, Do The Right Thing, Summer of Sam.

Some comments made here have been rather "Good Ol' Boy"-ish, and I don't see the need for it. Spike made the comment, and Clint defended himself. You don't need to do it for him.
 

I don't like reggae. I love it.

I never said Spike didn't make a few good movies. I did say that he was the one pulling the race card and making hay about another person's work b/c it didn't include black actors or make reference to African American's who took part even though doing so would have been contrary to the plot and historically inaccurate! I said he was an idiot and a reverse racist for the crap he put out there.

And I DO take offense to your remark, if you were referring to me, that comments I made were "Good Ol' Boy'-ish"! I stand by the things I said. Oh by the way, I'm not white either and I can't stand the racist/reverse racist crap that goes on!
