"He's a complicated man,
But no one understands him but his woman"
We need a new Shaft movie where his woman is a badass well-to-do crime-fighter who teaches Shaft everything he knows. Reviews his mistakes. Knocks him unconscious with a roundhouse kick when they spar. Instructs him in smart-ass comments, which John delivers awkwardly. Puts him on a weapons allowance. "I can't afford what you did to that poor hotel lobby. It's not the inevitable lawsuits. The price of shells alone will bankrupt me." She makes her fortune writing books about the antics of her pupils. Shaft is worth a Pulitzer.
Never let me nap for 4 hours. I turn into a publisher.
