In the past, I've gone to the movies to see garbage such as Terminator:Salvation, Battlefield Earth, Transformers 2 &3, Conan, Mission Impossible 3 & 4, all the Aliens vs. Predator movies, the last Bond flick, etc.

I'm always in the movies so it's no big deal to me if the movie stinks. (Red Tails didn't stink in my opinion)

You'll have to read The Isis Papers to get a deeper understanding of some of what I'm talking about.Even in Nicki Minaj's new video for example....there's a scene where she turns from a leopard in a cage to a woman in a cage. a Black woman with blond hair and colored contacts (brown). The song title is "Stupid @%$" and it comes off like a pardoy of people who idolize her...because she says nothing in the song. But peep how some black women lighten their skin and bleach their hair blond and put corrosive chemicals in their hair to straighten it. Women of color have grown more obsessed with the Eurocentric standard of beauty as time has gone by and IMO they have no basis on judging black men for interracial dating. I mean, if you're gonna get a white girl, you might as well get a real one no?The last flick with a black male lead going against white antagonists was Blade...and even with that film, Wesley went on record as saying that he felt his part was marginalized by them deciding to add white actors. Storm is an African goddess with white hair. The running joke that black people die in the first few minutes of a flick. Black men cross dressing in their films and this trying to be portrayed in the backdrop of "Christian" values. I particularly find this funny because the very Bible these Christians that support Tyler Perry films read....it says in the Old Testament that a woman shouldnt wear mens clothing and men shoulda wear women's clothing because it's an abomination. Damn near every black actor has crossdressed except for Will and Dave Chappelle, who has gone on record as saying he wouldnt do it. Katt Williams joked about the secret hollywood homosexual parties in Pimp Chronicles. His career tailgated off. The "next" Black comedian is Kevin Hart...see if they'll try to get him in a dress.....SNL has an obsession with the Black men in dresses skits as well...Sir Charles was recently a featured guest and was wearing a dress. In X-men, Darwin had the power to adapt to anything, yet gets killed first....the female Black mutant is a go go girl who defects to the bad guy's side. The scene where he referred to slavery. Movies like Blindside and The Help, all showing people of color in an inferior light or having white daddy syndrome, depending on white folks in some way shape or form...hell, even the two stereotypical characters in Transformers 2 were a disappointment to me...and that's why i havent seen the third one to this day. Denzel didnt get an Oscar for Malcolm X or Glory or John Q, but he gets one for Training Day? One where he plays a dirty cop who gets killed at the end? Not even his strongest role?This is why brothas need to support flicks like this. We can't sit back and bootleg these types of flicks then have all this negative stuff to say when a castrated black male role gets break through reviews or ticket sales. If you're not out actively supporting better roles, you have no basis to complain. We have a black president and people are upset about that, so Hollywood has gone crazy in the past few years with the jiggaboo !+$.

Spke did Miracle of Santa Anna, but Spike has a grouchy rep in Hollywood.This film isn't in Tyler Perry's interest to do, his audience wouldn't want to see it. I myself was shocked at how many black men were talking sideways about the flick without even seeing it.

I myself was shocked at how many black men were talking sideways about the flick without even seeing it.I was more shocked at the chicks that didn't want to see it because of no black women (ones in it were cut out) and the interacial dating. Alot of these same chicks are the ones like someone said on another mb that go get that fugazi hair from the asian beauty store that don't let no blacks in on the hair game. Where that boycott at? That and people that complain about black movies but when they are "positive" don't go see them cause they aren't feeling them make me want to tell them shut up.
