Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta hit up the pre-screening of “Django Unchained” with her boo Todd Tucker last night (December 18, 2012).

One thing’s for sure, no one is questioning the status of Kandi’s relationship! The two held hands and look quite cozy as they took in the highly anticipated new flick.
Django Unchained is a western written and directed by Quentin Tarantino and stars Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kerry Washington and Samuel L. Jackson. Others spotted at the pre-screening included Love & Hip Hop Atlanta‘s Stevie J & Joseline Hernandez, Braxton sisters Trina & Towanda, Funky Dineva, Fonzworth Bentley, radio personalities Egypt Sherrod, Ryan Cameron & Art Terrell and More. Check out photos from “movie night” in the A + a few official trailers for ‘Django Unchained’ below…

Jamie Foxx, is completely riveting as Django and his presence is undeniable in every scene. I thought Keri Washington’s role would be a bit bigger. But she did her thing.
Leonardo DiCaprio is an actor’s actor, so you already know his performance was superb and Samuel L. Jackson totally stole the show as the “House Negro”!
Samuel L Jackson stole the movie. His slave character antics will have you on the edge of your seat screaming and laughing at him #DjangoATL — DRAMA DUPREE (@dramadupree) December 19, 2012
The thing about #DJangoUnchained is that you’ll probably end up hating Samuel L. Jackson more than the racist white folks! Lmao! #DJangoATL

The film definitely kept the audience intrigued with it’s in depth storyline.
Granted, there are some parts that could have been left on the cutting room floor (for length’s sake), however the acting is superb and you’ll find yourself rooting for Django throughout the film.

Pros: While the plot is based during slavery, the film doesn’t hold the weight of say… Alex Haley’s “Roots”.
There are things to be learned about the time period, i.e. I now find myself wanting to read up on ‘Mandingo fighting’ and ‘hot boxes’.
There are also some laughable moments that are placed in unconventional scenarios… ie the “klansmen” who complain that the eye-holes in their sheets don’t match and they ‘can’t see sh*t” and the Rick Ross song that pops on the soundtrack as the slaves are being transported.
I feel like Tarantino threw in those moments to remind us that this was a fictional tale.
Cons: Django Unchained is 2hours and 45 minutes!! That’s a long time to sit without a bathroom break! Trust me when I tell you that you WILL NOT want to get up to go pee because you won’t want to miss a thing!
I’ll give ‘Django Unchained’ TWO THUMBS up, and I’ll probably pay my money to see it again on Christmas Day.

Major shouts to Saptosa Foster and the 135th Street Agency for the screening invite.

Should be called "weave unchained" bc that’s all I see…DONEVO (dineva) looks like a damn money in a wig with red lipstick.
Monkey* Str8 embarrassment to the black race.
Funky Dineva hair was layed like *I fell asleep drunk on the gay bars bathroom floor and left lipstick on a peen*
Atlien hair was laid like *ch… I can’t wait to get home and soaks these bunions and clean my chitterlings*
Your hair was cute as always @Atlien… I can’t wait to see that movie!!!
I already see some people were nominated for Globes for this movie but Jamie wasn’t. It looks like its good and it looks like he’s doing his thang in it. Triple threat. Can’t wait to see it.
It hurts to look at Funky D.
Yes, it does… and I love him. But that lipstick though…WHY??!!!
Kandi looks like a monkey with a weave .
I really dont care for her .
WTH is that in the red top? SMH
lol that’s funky dineva
Straight From the “A” always have the inside scoop, soooooo envious!
HARPO WHO THESE PEOPLE??? o_O
I love Jamie Foxx and Kerry Wasington together! I secretly wished they would get together after RAY!
OOPS! I forgot the "h" in Washington.
What does Joseline have on??????? Tore up from the floor up!
Trina Braxton looks different to me. I dunno, maybe it’s the angle, but something looks different about her face.
It’s called "plastic surgery".
trina look pregnant and a mess with that black wig on! wow the other one has on too much make up….they are just too much when they can just be themselves and be natural!!!! ugh!
Don’t do slave movies. Could care less who’s starring in them. One this for sure is that the blacks will be the slaves! Really people?
"thing" for sure
@Team Marlo…I’m with You. Don’t do slave movies…I wouldn’t care if Denzel was in it.
Yes…I understand about the importance of Alex Hailey’s Roots…but, I’ve only saw the whole thing once. And I don’t know why this country dwells so much on black folks being slaves and maids…we also invented a bunch of shhh… and are doctors, lawyers, and have all kind of stories like everyone else.
Why is it America hates to deal with the topic but Hollywood loves to make Epic movies about black folks before the civil rights movement. But, then you haven’t seen 10 negroes in another movie that’s not a comedy/buffoonery style movie working together all year? just wondering.
Is that a Birkin bag Towanda Braxton has? Hopefully it’s not. Wasn’t she the one that was homeless on one of their episodes? If that’s a Birkin, now I see why?
No ma’am Funky Dineva, you look unfortunate as hell. I love you but don’t you EVER put red lipstick upon your lips again my friend!
Uhm…the real movie was in the audience.
That Joseline is a trannified mess!
Rat boy is still gross. I just hope their seats were disinfected. ILK!
The Braxton sisters are just XTRA.
I want to see the movie. Samuel Jackson as the house negro…is gonna b something to see.
There are some real hot messes in these photos. I plan to see the movie. I love the director and he has casted some really good actors. I am sure I will get my money’s worth.
WHAT IN THE HELL IS WRONG WITH KANDI’S OUTFIT? BISH USE SOME OF THAT RHOA MONEY AND GET YOU A STYLIST OR DID YOU SPEND IT ALL ON THAT FORECLOSURE?
JOSELIN YOU LOOK TIRED AS HELL AND GHETTO AS HELL..CLEAN UP YOUR ACT AND GET A STYLIST!
TRINA..ARE YOU PREGNANT? YOU LOOK AT MESS WITH THAT WIG ON HONEY!
ATL PLEASE STOP THROWING UP THAT GHETTO WELL DOWN I SHOULD SAY, ASS ATL SIGN..BE A FUCKING LADY FOR ONCE! LOL LOL LOL
Towanda looks REALLY weird, like an alien with that lightbulb shaped head! Trina looks like she just got out of servin a 15yr bid at GDOC! Can sum1 please DONATE a NEW wig to Funky Dineva, if he gon be on CABLE, he need to step his game up, I’m ok with the raggedy wigs on YT but baby, you are a PUBLIC FIGURE now! Act & look like it!
I’m gonna PASS on the movie, that sh!t look like its gonna piss me off & I can’t stand Quentin Tarrantino WOODY from "Toystory" lookin a$$!
Why do u care if kandi has on a target or low budget outfit? If she dressed to the nines it would be an issue of her spending on extravagant items. That’s the problem of today some seem to think their fashion style is for everyone. To each is own. I don’t care if she wears a gunny sack. Its her sh:-) . Clothes don’t
make her. If people would just clean around their own porches it would be less sh:-) to shovel.
Funky Dineva looks like a new species from another planet.
I know that’s how he makes his money but DAMN at least make it look decent. B. Scott needs to give all these you-tube cross-dressers a fashion/beauty lesson.
What is going on with Jose-line and Trina? They don’t look like themselves. Trina looks a little plump,but cute. That Jose-line looks a mess as usual. I guess MeMe really did get off the bus. I’m not throughly convinced though.
Y’all killin me with these comments….I think everyone look nice. What are you suppose to wear to the movies? lol
Dineva…and the red lipstick…You tried it. (Tamar voice) lol
Honey child is that chad ocho cinco in that wig, and red blouse??? oh no hunty!
You bitches stay coming on here talkin bout folks, like wtf, everybody in them pics got mo money and less problems then all you hoes. get yo own house in order first. Quick to talk about a mf, but i’d love to see half of yall pics, real talk. Messy asses. So in other words, stop downin other black folks and focus on yo own dam self.
courtesy of a real white dude
Trina definitely looks like she had a nose job and is she expecting?? She looks like she was sown in that dress. O_o
Look forward to seeing the film..
funny film
I CAN’T FOCUS ON ANYTHING ELSE BUT THAT HOT ASS MESS IN DRAG. HOW DREADFUL!!
Was awesome but long.
Graphic, unsettling at times, very entertaining though. Great cast!
Was GREAT! Sam J did that!
it was epicc q.t style sam did his thing as always..its not a documentry so dont compare it 2 1.. Jamie Foxx (in the blue suit) was great
