i'm still looking into this, Dixie Lee, but your explanation sounds about right. I went through several schools growing up (we moved a lot) and that's not what they teach you in school. They either straight up teach that it was a symbol of the South's rebellion against the North trying to abolish slavery, or they imply it. Hey, it's never too late to learn, right? I sincerely thank you for taking time to explain. I wil continue to learn about this...y'all have a good day, now.

dukesran1, i think a boycott by the people who love the show, who grew up with it just might work cause the ones who don't love the show are more 'an likely not gonna see the movie anyway, so it could work...i'm only one person, but i'm sure there are others who, like me, will not pay money to see the movie...there just has to be. Oh, thanks for welcoming me here. Dasy, i'm sorry for sounding so negative, but i just cannot find it in my heart to go watch this movie...it doesn't appeal to me in the least. They shouldn't even call it DOH...it's not the Dukes!!! Chet, i think dear ol' Uncle Jesse would want me to follow my heart on this one.

come on, y'all. let's boycott the danged thing. it'll send a loud and clear message to the producers...don't fix what ain't broke!!

i've read all of y'all posting about pride in one's heritage and not once has any one explained what that means...a five minute search will clarify things...but if you are sooo well informed, why don't you guys just explain. still, the flag is part of the good ol' General Lee and the movie is already screwed up enough as it is without them going and screwing it up some more...ok, now i'm gonna go research online to see what this whole confederacy flag business is about...i'll get back to y'all.

why don't we just boycott the movie? i know i'm not gonna go see it. it's downright shameful that they didn't get input from the original cast/crew...anyone else just doesn't work...they didn't even bother with getting people that looked like the original characters...ugh...it's just disgusting and disheartening and i refuse to go see the movie!!!!!
