“You are a strong, beautiful, intelligent and WOKE black man.” That line is about as ridiculously written as “The exaggerated swagger of a black teen.”

I was waiting for the twist ending where, after being shot, Karen says "The curse lives on" and then turns back into a black woman. Then Imani watches as her skins lightens and her hair straightens before she screams and it cuts to credits.

"Loud and unruly...you mean black?" Is a golden piece of dialogue. Gotta love when someone who undoubtedly considers themselves anti-racist, says the most racist shit imaginable.

I love how the rain was localized to his windshield but not his driver side door so Karen could stay dry. That is white privilege

This movie is the epitome of “well boys we did it, racism is no more”

''She's wearing Africa!" such a underrated comment it made me burst out laughing.

“ I hate being black” I love JLB, she’s too funny 😂

Jlongbone proving once again why she is one of efap's greatest guests.

"We hate racism, have a racist movie!" - The director.

This whole movie is unironically how the average Twitter user views relations between black and white people

Fun fact: The swords near the doorway is traditional of Ethiopia design. Ethiopia is one of the last places on Earth that outlawed slavery.

I checked the wiki on this film, and it won multiple Razzies, including...I shit you not..."Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-Off or Sequel". They called it an "Inadvertent remake of Cruella"

I find it funny how this movie treats Karens like they’re a danger to society and black people. When Karens are actually just really annoying middle aged women who yell at cashiers.

Good on Jlongbone for suggesting this movie.

My favorite part was how the wife was too busy/tired to cook dinner, but will take the time to bake a pecan pie in order to be passive aggressive towards Karen.

So what happened to Karen's kids? They already lost their dad in awful circumstances, and now they've lost their only other two adult family members in a way that's probably going to leave a stigma hanging over them for a long time. Obviously the film doesn't care what happens to them, but man, they're the only ones in this film I actually feel sorry for.

"I hate being black" JLB, I wheezed so much I thought my head was gonna pop 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

>works in the inner city but moves to the suburbs because housing is "more affordable" >moves to a subdivision named after a confederate soldier >secretly plots to get on the homeowners association just to change the name of the place >is surprised when the locals hate them The writers made the black couple as bad as the white siblings ironically lol

"General Lee, we lost the Battle of Gettysburg, what should we do?" "Start production of Soap Dispensers, this will allow the South to rise again one day!"

This movie would have been 2000 times better if it was revealed that Karen was a 300 year old vampire and her husband was killed by a black union soldier in the civil war. It would unironically make the movie far more interesting to have the final act be just fright night

Someone commented this on JLongbone's video: Can we talk about the fact that Karen is a woman who has been driven mad by grief, and she isn't offered and ounce of sympathy?

When Mauler suggested to make Karen a lovecraftian creature, I thought he would suggest it be Shubniggurath

“Subtlety? Never heard of it.” The director/writer of Karen (probably)

Honestly Karen going to a house party for people she knows she's gonna roast by herself is hard af

They aren’t financially stable in a big ass home?!?!? 😂😂😂

"Africa's so great, I love Africa, it's my heritage. Africa Africa Africa." "Oh you should move there, then." *"How can you say that that's so fucking racist"* I'm ethnic Irish and I would love to "move back" to Ireland.

The funny thing is that the black woman is just as much a Karen as actual Karen but she is seen as justified in her behavior by the movie.

JLongbone trying to keep silent while EFAP makes their way through this monstrosity must've been a Herculean effort.

"Ahh I hate being black"...Oh JLongBone we love you.

When Karen started puking from her excessive racism I laughed for about a minute 🤣🤣🤣 This is absurdism

I want a scene where the protagonist visits the HOA, and there is a plaque that says "Home Owners Association" then, he looks behind it, and there is another plaque underneath that says "Haters of Africans"

The part that pisses me off the most is that they never acknowledge what happened to Karen's kids. Aside from Kyle watching the couple undress, they did NOTHING wrong, and actually seemed pretty normal and friendly. Hell, the fact that I remembered their names (Kyle and Sarah) shows how much I was actually paying attention during their scenes. I don't even remember the main couple's names, or the brother cop's name! And they just get NO acknowledgement after their MOTHER AND UNCLE GET GUNNED DOWN!!!

"YOU PLANTED THAT SHIT ON ME! THIS ISN'T FAIR!" said the man who was LITERALLY openly smoking weed in front of his house just a few days earlier. This shit is an allegory for sure. Just not an allegory the director intended. EDIT: lmao and he had an illegal gun too

"You got to keep your whites and your blacks separate!" --Karen "Bull" Conner

One of the commenters on JLongbone's first reaction to this movie pointed out that those swords are not, in fact, from Ethiopia. In case anyone was wondering.

"We should socialize with our own kind." Said the villain of the movie, meanwhile our hero is scolding his wife for bringing this white lady into their world. At least the "good" and "bad" guys have something in common.

"Look at you slaving away in here." -Hiddle Baggals

This is a movie that seems like one of the deliberately terrible plots they came up with in The Producers to make money. 😂

That final shootout plays out like that SNL skit where the guy's writing a letter to his sister and it just escalates to everyone impossibly shooting each other.

"you guys were being loud and unruly." "loud and unruly? you mean being black?" woooow they didn't think about that one at all

Karen vs She-Hulk: a real period piece.

The fact that they made the other characters so awful that you end up agreeing with Karen is pretty incredible

5:08 that’s a great way to make friends in a neighborhood. You haven’t even been there for 24 hours and you’re already trying to change the name of local landmarks.

its pretty fitting that a WOKE couple move into a community named after a soldier of that state and then immediately say they are going to manipulate their way into changing it into something they approve of, regardless of the rest of the community.

This is not a parody. Let that sink in.

JLongbone towards the end saying she was ashamed to be black cracked me up.

"She had to take off the earrings so there's room" by rags was the best line that had me dying that went underappreciated.

1:02:41 That fucking distracting trumpet joke, plus Mauler's reaction had me in fucking tears! XDDDDDD

I commented this on JLongbone's video, but I'll repeat it here: Karen is basically a woke rip-off of a film called Lakeview Terrace (2008). Here are some of the glaring similarities: - Widowed antagonist with two kids, a boy and a girl - Protagonists move into a tight-knit neighbourhood - Security equipment facing the protagonists’ house - Husband smokes, which he keeps from his wife, in his car at night, antagonist finds out - The protagonist couple have sex, in the full view of the antagonist’s child(ren) - Protagonists have a housewarming party that antagonist “crashes” and makes hella awkward - There's a conflict throughout on whether or not the protagonists should start a family - Antagonist’s child bonds with one of the protagonists, antagonist sees and gets annoyed - Antagonist's daughter is in an interracial relationship - At some point, it’s revealed the antagonist had a past negative experience which fuels their current hatred - In the climax, the antagonist enters the protagonists’ house with a gun - There’s a shootout at the end, which ends up with both the protagonist and antagonist getting shot; the antagonist dies from this The only major difference is that it’s a white woman terrorising a black couple, instead of a black man terrorising an interracial couple. Wonder why that is . . .? 🤔🤔🤔

Thank you Adam for your sacrifice to bring us Karen!

Okay, but seriously. The guy says "ever since the ships landed on Africa's shores 400 years ago, we've been trapped in this foreign land." Then yes, the answer is go to Africa. You view America as a foreign country they you're trapped in. If you don't like it in America so much, if Africa is so much better, then go there. You don't have to live here if it's really so offensive to you.

This movie couldn't even get the meme right. They hired a weird dark-haired goblin with a voice like a career waitress who smokes too much, when they should've hired an overweight blonde with "the haircut" and a shrill mom voice. Bizarre casting.

This “movie” was made only for money laundering purposes. Nobody will ever convince me otherwise.. 😂

Oh, wow! Dixie Soap! "The yellow person was just sneaking around." The only time you can say, or maybe Mauler can say, "yellow person" without being called "racist."

the whole "it's terrible how karen told these black people to go back to africa" rhetoric is seriously undermined when they show that this friend group holds africa in such reverence that they do shit like wear weird earrings shaped like the continent of africa and have paintings of african tribals and ceremonial swords from african cultures and apparently think america is so racist and evil they don't even feel safe letting their child be born here. I'm actually kinda curious why this particular group wouldn't find the idea appealing it's like a weeb who has samurai armor and anime posters everywhere getting really angry when you ask him if he wants to live in japan. racial component aside their attire and house furnishings tell us they really fucking like africa and they explicitly say they don't like where they've moved to and feel unsafe so why not?

Can we appreciate how much effort Karen has to go to in order to get her Confederate soap? 😂 That’s definitely not going to be available in a local convenience store, especially in the areas they live, so she has to specially order it from somewhere AND do it regularly, paying additional shipping costs instead of going to the shop just so she can have her bloody soap bottle with the confederate battle flag? 🤣 Karen goes above and beyond, no doubt about that. 😅

Plot twist, Karen’s husband was murdered by batwoman

I cannot take this seriously. This MUST be satire of the BEST sort. Like... this could as well have been a plan from 4chan.

If I had to guess, Karen was made in very short order to hurriedly capitalize on the popularity of the Karen meme. I don't even think it's a bad concept. A story about a family moving into a new neighborhood and being subjected to subtle hostility that slowly builds in intensity would make for an interesting psychological thriller. Especially if other neighbors are shown to doubt the accusations against someone they've lived next to for years and years. Perhaps, and of course there's no way in hell this would ever happen, they could subvert expectations by revealing that the whole time, the new family was indeed being paranoid and all the feelings of being slighted and gaslit were merely misunderstanding and/or coincidence.

I wish being college educated meant something anymore lol

So, a lady calls the cops on the son of a Civil Rights Lawyer, And, then, that lady and the cop that arrested the son both end up dead in the house of her neighbors. These neighbors, recently became “clients” of the Civil Rights Lawyer. But, “they attacked first”, the story is corroborated by a cop-a cop that is a rookie new to the force. It’s not suspicious at all.

I was worried when they announced watching this film that I would die of cringe, however I am dying of laughter. They fail so hard they fail at their preachiness (Edit) Omg this is up with malignant as a new favourite movie 😂😂

I tried watching this with my friend group drunk. It was miserable. Not even alcohol could save it. It’s impressive how much fun y’all had with it.

"Happy Halloween all my massives!" -Bilbo Baggins

That woman IS. A. MONSTER. Who the hell wastes even a bad pecan pie?!!!

"You are a strong, beautiful, intelligent, and WOKE black man!" Me: NOBODY TALKS LIKE THIS! What is this movie??

The lower of the two swords is a spanish bastard sword. I own one that is almost exactly the same. Film makers were too lazy to actually order African swords. Africans had some really cool swords too, often really curved and exotic.

Karen: “For eons, I have only seen racism as a mere energy source that keeps me alive. But now I’ve discovered how much useful it is as the universe’s greatest weapon”

I can't wait for the sequel. Kyle and Stacey: The revenge. See racism is like poetry, it rhymes and if it rhymes you can rap it.

Now Karen's kids are orphans #thoughtsandprayers for Kyle and Sarah 🙏

"Doncha know..? I'm electro." Karen's vibrator

I fucking lost it at the Zatarain's Trumpeteer 🤣🤣🤣

The Soap will rise again

THAT TRUMPET SCENE

This is the moment when Karen became Heisemberg

I was half expecting the Chris Rock how not to get your ass kicked by the police PSA sketch during the first arrest.

Remember when Tropic Thunder made fun of dialogue wrote like this… ahh the days when competent people actually got to write dialogue

That ending credits scene might be the most tone deaf thing I've seen in a film lol

I can't believe Shaun King didn't help write this movie.

Is it the prequel that explains Guyladriel's origins?

"I hate being black..." -JLongBone

I still sing "From whips and chains to whhipsss and chaiiinnnssssss" from time to time.

Every 60 Seconds In Africa, A Minute Passes. But together we can stop that...

"SHUT UP JAY" -Mauler being an absolute legend

So Karen knocked over their trashcan because she was mad they didn't move it from the curb once the trash was collected, but it was full of trash, there is a whole scene picking up the spilled trash, so clearly the trash had yet to be collected. What?!

The actress who played Karen sounds like she's sloshed the whole time. I wouldn't be surprised if she was.

My favorite part of this movie is when Karen said "Its Karen time", and then Karened all over the floor.

so this black couple moves into a neighborhood they know is named after a confederate solider, want to stay by their own kind self-admittedly by them, complain that the entire neighborhood is racist but get everything they want the moment they run into a problem by some one else, complain that there are basic home-owner society standards of keeping your trash off the street on time which is something my lower-midddle class family did without a HOS either. This honestly makes the black couple the instigators on every level here since they being so 'socially aware' they'd know they wouldn't be welcome or assume that at the very least, blame EVERYONE but the one person who's actually making the problems for them, demand an apparently tight-nit community change everything for them because that community had the 'blessing' of these two moving in and that's it. They had a hundred red flags of "you know, moving here could be a bad idea" just by the name alone of the area as they stated, but did it anyway. What i'm trying to say is, this movie when you take a step back, the villains won.

Early movie; Asian Lady: There hasn't been a black family in this neighborhood in 10 years Mid movie; HOA goon: Karen, one of the kids you called the police on lives in the neighborhood and his father is a prominent civil rights attorney. Kid must have stealth moved into the neighborhood because given how comically racist Karen is supposed to be, this should be something she should know. Or Asian lady lied to Karen because she hate whitey too.

At one point I was giving the film to much credit. During the climax of the film when Karen was breaking into Imani's house I thought that she was going to incriminate herself with her own camera's pointing at the house, but that never goes anywhere? Also what about Karen's kids? They seemed normal but now they have no parents, no uncle, no other relatives; they are going to just get tossed into the foster care system and the film never addresses it.

Based JLong for recommending this! GLORIOUS!

Black guy "helping my people" Karen "Your people have such interesting names" HOW DARE SHE????

Has anyone mentioned that the wife claims that Karen invited herself. But earlier, while she was out jogging, she gave Karen the time and place of the party.

The racism is over dance party was a beautiful touch

Starting with something really scary, this is an actual movie, someone paid for this Few things that scary

58:34 They are waiting for their ATB bars to fill so they can take their turn.

I've never written a screenplay but movies like this make me wonder if I should just give it a shot. Lol.

That family guy joke at the end was so perfect

The funniest comedy film of 2021...wait, the director/writer is trying to play this straight? ...makes this film even funnier

Been looking forward to this one. He's been teasing it for months.
