What's the point of this last paragraph? Just because some wrongs are still committed against blacks I have to just sit here and accept every bit of backlash racism thrown my way. Is that what you're trying to tell me? To fucking hell with that! I am not going to be told I'm evil just for being white in an over-whelmingly high number of films and such which are far more common than the crime dramas you mentioned. My whole point was from the beginning is that we should be working on accepting each other instead of continuing to point the finger and that these movies are not helping!
Please WR, there is no need to get angry. As I said repeatedly I do see the problem which you are addressing, but I am trying to point out some of the reasons for the problem, some problems which may be easier to overlook from a white-only perspective, and also some examples for movies which do NOT fit into the scheme that you criticize. I know there are plenty of movies to match the criteria which you are addressing though none has been named so far.
At least the film would show Mr. Black isn't Mr. Perfect.
There are plenty more movies depicting black people as not all good and whites as not all bad. The use of the certainly not so kindly meant phrase "Mr. Black" kind of worries me as it really makes it sound like you were blaming black people for the movies which you don't like. Remember, most of the directors and script writers are white WR.
Here are some more movies which I think disprove the view that the existing movies showed black people as perfect people:
The movie "Birth of a nation" is not really an argument in this debate as being shot in 1915 it is by now more of a historic source than a movie that would be aired to entertain people. However, I am mentioning this movie which contributed to the second rising of the KKK because it did take a strong influence on the depiction of blacks in later movies and because it did gain a kind of "official blessing" from then US president Woodrow Wilson who claimed the movie to show the historic truth.
Another rather old movie that shows blacks in negative roles as well (negative may also include the stereotypical image of black people as stupid, silly, and careless) would be "gone with the wind". Yes, I know this movie also is very old 1939 or 1940 I think, but because it is so famous and popular that it will still be aired it may have a better right to be mentioned in this thread than "Birth of a Nation".
Getting out of the sphere of pre-civil rights movement movies we have the 80s TV series "North and South". It includes "good whites" and "bad whites" on both sides of Mason Dixie with some shades of gray (but not much of that). However apart from the "good blacks" there are also "bad blacks". It is a while since I saw the series, but I am pretty sure there were blacks torching down the homes of whites there and murdering whites. They even allyed with a former slave overseer (who was NOT in command, so it was not the bad white causing the good blacks to do bad). That was not so "blacks are good only".
Another movie would be "Glory" of 1989 (music by James Horner by the way). The movie is mostly about the 54th (black) Massachusetts regiment in the Civil War. Looking at the movie you will find many scenes which would support your view of whites being depicted as evil, but I think that there are more cases to be found in the movie which contradict that view. Again the main protagonist is the well meaning white which can be found in practically every movie on the matter I am aware of (can you name a single movie on the matter without the "good white" character?). And even though the movie does (as the title suggests) glorify the events we do get to see a good deal of acts which will not depict the blacks as good only. Apart from them pecking on each other within the ranks we see a black trying to rape a white women before being shot by an (evil) white man, burning down a town (yes, that one is ordered by the aforementioned evil white man), and shooting an innocent civilian who wants to surrender (no order from an evil white man there).
That being said, 300 is a bad example because no one takes that film seriously.
Is it so? I'm afraid there are plenty enough people who actually mistake the movie 300 as a close depiction of historical events. As to whether or not the movie is taken seriously, assume for a moment that tomorrow a movie was launched in the "Arab world" depicting the "Western world " and the US in such a light as 300 did depict the "hordes of Asia". I think it is quite likely that some people here would take it very seriously. It is always easy not to take a movie too serious if oneself does not belong to the group that feels offended by it. You don't think so?
Then what about the Turkish movie "Valley of the Wolves Iraq"? I did not watch it and I don't want to watch it, but the reaction of the "western world" was not amused. From what I have read the movie includes very strong anti-American, anti-Semitic, and anti-Christian messages. American Soldiers are portrayed as brutal rambos. But apart from pure atrocity propaganda it also included references and depictions of atrocities which have de facto been committed in recent years. Is it easy not to take that serious when one is on the receiving end of such a depiction?
Again, I do not deny the problem which you addressed does exist WR, but some of the things you write (e.g. your agreement to making a movie about the atrocities committed by blacks on Haiti but please without reference to the atrocities of the previous centuries of slavery which caused and the brutal retribution that followed it) I really cannot agree with. If a problem really IS to be solved one needs to look at it from both sides of the matter. On the one hand you claim that you do see both sides of the coin, but on the other hand you are sounding so furious and use formulations (e.g. "Mr. Black isn't perfect.") that make it very difficult to believe that you really do. Your not knowing any of the movies I listed which are NOT the way you describe movies in general to be further adds to this impression.
WR I am neither out to offend you, nor do I deny the existence of the problem which you address. My point is that the problem is not as universal as you may think (which may make you happy), and also that other related problems exist, some of which provide a basis for the problem you are concerned about. One cannot solve the one without solving the other there.
