Uh, not so much since the original was, it turned out, to be a plagerized ficitional version of alex haley's imagination. Two thumbs down. But, it will manage to crank up the divide that grows ever wider with the sjw crowd. Anybody that was born in the US should kiss the ground and give thanks daily. Most have no first hand idea at just how ugly things are out there.

This time I’m cheering for the other guys.

In the early 1970s Muhammad Ali fought for the heavyweight title against George Foreman. The fight was held in the African nation of Zaire; it was insensitively called the “rumble in the jungle.” Ali won the fight, and upon returning to the United States, he was asked by a reporter, “Champ, what did you think of Africa?” Ali replied, “Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat!”

I’m all for re-making roots as long as they spend more time in Africa covering HOW and WHO was responsible for rounding up the Slaves from their villages and the Arab slave traders and their Black Allies who rounded them up and sold them.

...cuz we gotta remind you every thirty years or so just how RAAAAAACiST you all are!

[cherry]

it’ll be a failure, just like any movie or tv show that aims for a minority audience that preaches to the rest of us....

[Political Junkie Too]

Are they going to be as liberal with the n-word this time as they were the last time, or will it offend too many sensitive people now?

[Red Badger]

Then it’s also time to remake “Gone With The Wind” as well?..............................

If he needs a job that bad, I’d recommend Next Generation re-boot.

Not sure why Kunta Kinte was so upset. He ended up serving on the NCC-1701-D, the Enterprize, as the Chief Engineer.

I needs a job !!

[Michael.SF.]

This time do the slaves get their 40 acres and a mule?

[Jonty30]

You know it’s election season when they crank out divisive movies and tv shows meant to keep blacks angry.

[pogo101]

“It’s time” ... because those residuals from the first “Roots” and ST:TNG just ain’t getting the job done?

[circlecity]

Missed it the first time. And I’ve never missed an opportunity to miss it since.

[ObozoMustGo2012]

Since Hollywood has shifted to remaking traditionally white-casted movies with black actors, will studios follow suit and re-make "Roots" with a white cast?
