I had to sit through Madea Goes To Jail with my mother and sister once. Never again. Tyler Perry could be a gaffer on your movie and I'd still refuse to watch it.
But his Madea is crazy like my Madea was

It was just a naked woman.. Not a porno..

Now what I can't believe is that my father let me watch the Dukes of Hazard...
mine did too.

in fact, I had a bigass orange toy Dukes car. complete with confederate flag. I was oblivious, but they weren't. what the fuck gives? and if I tried to watch an episode now, would I be mad?

Yeah, "Precious" can go fuck itself. Such a nauseating watch.
An obese, illiterate, inarticulate, adolescent mother, an incestuous father, a violent, equally obese, welfare recipient for a mother, it's just a cornucopia of slovenly black trash debasing themselves in a grotesque and pornographic manner. (stealing a bucket of fried chicken from a restaurant, then a close up of our heroine throwing up in a garbage..yes, as if we hadnt got the point already)
The film reminds me of that French movie, Irreversible in that both films pummel you over the head with the humiliation and utter debasement of a character you've invested in. In a way, I'm glad this movie was highly regarded; it might exhaust the appetite (of critics at least) for other, equally manipulative and crude studies of black failure.
I offer Spike Lee's "Clockers" as a more sophisticated, compelling study of the inner city black family:

Loved that movie. One of my favorite Spike lee flicks.

When I was a kid, my cousin had a general lee car she could ride in pedal powered, complete with confederate flag and everything. We didn't think much of it(well, I did. The oldest had the general lee, the second had kitt, and what vehicle was I rolling in? A big wheel, which was some bullshit)but as kids, you aren't looking at things like that. I'm pretty sure if there was something ss related and no one told me about it as a kid, I wouldn't think anything of it either

I couldn't, in good faith, place my unproteced dick(and mouth)anywhere Chingy's dick has been. And make no mistake, there wouldn't be a rubber within 100 yards of my fuck session with Rudy Huxtable. You can't just have protected missionary sex with that--it would be a waste. You'd have to be freaky as you've ever been to get the most out of the experience and Chingy's dick ruined that for all disease weary people.

I'm compelled to give Olivia the nod by DQ. I feel like I could inject her juices into my blood stream with a syringe and be good to go.

Didn't Chingy get exposed for banging a tranny? I ain't mad tho, but still smh

That's what it looks like, but I think it was more "I could be seriously injured right now. Let me take a moment to collect myself."

Still, I am glad that he didn't get a serious injury. I jumped off a 6 foot wall and tore my ACL, sprained my MCL, damaged both of my menisci, and have been off of work for 3 months. This guy seems to be okay for the most part. Helluva drug and all that

Oh I'm sure he is all kinds of fucked up on the inside. He landed all kinds of wrong. Also, that damn guy yelling "MAN DOWN" all the time was cracking me up.

I got banned once for posting that gif, just a heads up :p

Holy shit @ dude attempting that backflip. He fucking wrecked himself. I almost didn't even want to watch him jump, because I knew it would get sick.

I bet he eventually went to the hospital with a serious injury, once the crack wore off.

Gentlemen...

My bedroom reno is nearing completion. Within the next week or two I should have myself a fully equipped den of funk and sex.

Disco lights, disco ball, strobe, black lights, pimp bed, animal print pillows and throw blanket, candles, special chest filled with bottles of booze and various narcotics, backlit glass unicorn on the nightstand....

Framed posters on the wall include:

Marvin Gaye
James Brown
Roger Troutman
Diana Ross
Rick James
Debby Harry
Betty Davis
Taste of Honey
Ike and Tina (vintage German concert poster from 1974)
Earth Wind and Fire
Breakin' 2: Electic Boogaloo movie poster

it's gonna be awesome, amazing and SO DAMN FUNKY. I never post pics of personal shit on GAF, but when this is all done I'll make an exception and show it all off in this thread.

Have you read the book 'Clockers'? Amazing book. I saw the movie, liked it quite a bit, then read the book years later. Such an incredible piece of work.

My brother said there's a stereotypical white chick in the film who's so ridiculous it's impossible to take seriously lol

I've seen Diary of a Mad Black Woman and that was enough. My mom and aunt were enthralled from beginning to end while I sat there shaking my head at the various cliches. And apparently, all his later movies follow the same pattern: women in poor relationships, professional black men treating their women poorly, some type of honorable light skinned mechanic/sanitation worker/janitor/etc falling in love with the woman, religious woman begging her backsliding girlfriend to come back to church, etc

Dude needs to be kicked out the closet so we can see just how loving his religious audience truly is.

the basic formula changes with the family that preys, but that movie is a test of patience. i felt so relieved once the pieces finally fell and the story wrapped up
