I think imma see this

I want to see this have commercial success because I hate the thought that this thing will not sell well because it has principally black main characters. Perhaps arguments can be made for movie quality, but shitty movies have been hits. This is the action heavy first introduction, there is a prequel, where they go through bootcamp etc, and a sequel, where they are return and are again relegated to second class citizens. So, I support paying matinee/full ticket price for this film, because the rest of the story should be told, and I think the hollywood revenue calculus needs to be spited, but I get the feeling its weekend will be modest at best, and will not be able to justify its budget. And that is a damn shame.

And I the Ravens. I don't really have a horse in the NFC games. Probably better for my ears if the niners win though.
