#is a double edged sword bc we're all rooting for the underdogs

watching a movie about a sport you know nothing about can be the definition of vibing without comprehension and i experienced that today

#film: 83 #83 the movie #bollywood #local gay watches Bollywood.txt #for those asking the media in question is 83 (2021) #and it's f*cking hilarious bc my dad is really into cricket #i have no concern for the sport whatsoever #so watching this film as the child of Afro-Carribbean West Indian parents with strong evidence of South Asian ancestry #is a double edged sword bc we're all rooting for the underdogs #but the Windies are just tearing it up on the f*cking field like nobody's business #begging Bollywood to understand however that the West Indies is not just Jamaica??? #like i hate to break it to you but there were only two Jamaicans on the Windies World Cup team that year. two #on the other hand there were four Bajans two Antiguans #two Trinis playing for T&T as a whole #why are all the extras in dreadlocks and playing reggae music and waving the Jamaican flag #every time a Windies player opened their mouth it was this strange mix of Jamaican accent/whatever else they decided to throw in there #in a supposed attempt to be 'authentic' #ik about Windrush and the fact that most of the people who came over were Jamaicans but. but. people from literally #every other country in the Caribbean under British rule immigrated as well??? #between this and the 'ceasefire so we can listen to cricket' i am once again reminded that this is a biopic not a documentary #Ranveer and Deepika were f*cking good in this tho #and her fits were insane i am in love with that accordian skirt and skinny turtleneck she wore during the first half of the Cup games
