What about Moonlight was so important to Black culture?
12 Years A Slave was based on a true story. About how a muhfucka could get snatched up and made a slave and a POW, but Moonlight?

fuck oprah she wanted to fuck with white only until she saw it wasnt working
And why did she specify no major studio has been run by a BLACK MAN?
No black women either.
So shouldn't she say a BLACK PERSON?
I wonder if i countered with...
Even if it was?
What does she think would be different?
Major studios drop sh*t movies all the time and it really has little to do with studio heads a lot of times.
And as a gay woman...
Shouldn't she criticize the depiction of gays in major films over the years, especially gay black women or the lack there of?
Cause I'm damn sure there have been gay studio heads.
She should criticize them too.

Your allegence to Fagdom makes a lot of sense... Maybe you're actually a bum bitch ass dyke.
That explains so Much

He's ALLOWED to be a boss why? He's in a dress damn near every fucking movie he makes and it's pretty much a joke that every other movie is the light skin nigga saving a broad from the abusive dark skin nigga.
Maybe one day he will filp and make movies some cacs would find threatening but he's not cranking out movies that good.
Btw people forgot Eddie had a nice run in the 90s on the other side of the camera producing Boomerang and Harlem Knights
Because we don't foreal....that's a agenda movie and they gave it the Oscar like Black folks really give a fuck about the Oscars like that. I really can't bring myself to watch Precious all the way through.....I value my time too much.
What facts does she lack? She made a pointed criticism/question. She said if she were in their position she would be financing black indies. I dont get the outrage man.
Another post of grade school lunch table quality, talking about sexual preference and homo shit. You a bigger bitch than she is. Bitch.
I came in here to say this.
Either she should do it or shut the fuck up.
Entitlement is a helluva drug.
I dont een know who you're talking to but ima cosign it on gp.
This is also true.
People actually believe Trump and Jay-Z are billionaires but when the facts come out, they can’t produce the results to dispute it.

The outrage is this...
First she said I'm not saying names
Then she did
And chose two names that undermine her position.
As @largebillsonlyplease proved with will and @Lexx Diamond proved with the AFI tribute last night for Denzel.
So now she aint just WRONG...
she look uninformed because she just pulling names out of a hat.
And then she specified BLACK MEN.
when the past 3 years the LGBTQ community has been DEMANDING not to label.
Its people of color or individuals etc
Why did she specifically target black men for?
Cause Oprah, Beyonce, Ava... i could go on.
I'm proud to say BLACK WOMEN some even under 21 are powerful producers and content creators in Hollywood now
And also to criticize those men about supporting and protecting and uplifiting Blacks?
And to have a black woman who was regularly harrassed under her own watch?
She sound silly.
And full disclosure? i actually support her work.
But stuff like this makes it hard to champion her.
She will be fine, though
But word to Monique
she better watch her mouth. And be prepared to back all that "criticism" up.

Well Trump TELLS everyone he is billionaire for decades and EVERYONE with a lick of sense knows he lying.
Jay Z has all these business and financial media outlets say it ABOUT HIM.
And just keeps grinding.
What’s her point I’m missing?
Exactly. But because Denzel doesn’t brag and post about the shit on IG he not helping black filmmakers.
Trump was probably closer to bankruptcy than billions until he became POTUS and that is the main reason he never showed the returns. Trump would rather be exposed as a plant for Russia than being broke.
The richest black men in America are rarely even mentioned (Byron Allen and Robert Smith) so all the Khazar funded money magazines tell me is that Jay-Z, AKA Mr. 0.0001% NBA owner, is their “boy”.

With Denzel I felt and feel him helping so many actors over decades kind of cancels criticisms imo because he's helping in his own way. And has been helping. And I'm not with calling out people for not helping in the way they SAY or FEEL they should
If they are in fact helping feel me?
They were great movies.....but I’m not sure how important they are too our culture. It may be too early to tell.
Lol dyke feelings still hurting?
Why you always acting like a lil bitch in every post? Your girlfriend stole your strap on?
Amajorfucup bitch ass in here being his Dyke self
Why u wasting your time?
Call him a self-important bitch and move on.
This bum ass nigga pretending not to understand because he can never admit when he is wrong.

Eddie Murphy used to get accused of the same thing.
Eddie was hiring black producers, cameramen, old school black actors, etc.....
Yep..same thing goes for Robert townsend, keenan ivory wayans, and I know we hate him now, but Bill Cosby...although i'm not sure how many black crew members he had on the Cosby Show...it seemed to be mostly whites behind the camera
It's as simple as that
It's just another attempt by a black female to tear down black men.
Surprised Jemele Hill hasn't co-signed yet.
I havent been on Social Media that much lately but from what ive been reading and the comments I saw under the "interview" she did on "The Breakfast Club" I think some people pumping the brakes on her after this Jason Mitchell stuff...
Exactly.
Harlem Knights, which he wrote and directed, was the biggest black production in Hollywood history both front of house and back of house. It may still be?
Robert Townsen, Keenan Wayans, etc. all got their start working as part of Eddie’s writing team.
Eddie helped push Chris Rock and gave him his first on-screen appearance (Beverly Hills Cop 2).
Eddy gave Dave Chapelle one of his first on screen appearances (Nutty Professor).
These weren’t little Art house films ... these were massive worldwide blockbusters and to get exposure like that for a young up-and-coming comedian is absolute gold.
Notice you're the only one in here conducting himself like a petulant prepubescent bitch? Why waste the bandwidth typing the same sophomoric bullshit over and over like an attention seeking geek? Just leave the thread bro if you have nothing of substance to add.. You 40 and this is how you communicate. What a fucking shame.
Lifetime achievement award for Denzel has nothing to do with her criticism. You cats acting like she attacked their very existence while accusing them of never contributing to the art form or society in general. That wasnt the case. Her criticism was pointed and direct. She specified her issue. None of what you typed negates that bro. Sorry.
Robert F Smith is richest black man in America, then David Steward, and then depending on if you count Kase Lawal or not since he's Nigerian Born but came to the States for college and made his money here. Then its MJ before the big 3 in Hip Hop and Byron Allen, Tyler Perry, Magic Johnson, Daymond John
Whut!!???
Yall buggin now.
You never knew Robert Townsend was part of Eddie Murphy’s writing and production team?!
Pick up a copy of Eddie Murphy, Raw and look at the director and writing credits. You’ll see Robert’s name.
I wish I could find the video, but there’s a great story of Robert Townsend recounting sitting in a meeting with the distributor for Raw’s lawyers negotiating over what jokes should be cut and what jokes should be kept in order to get to an MPAA R-Rating, because the unedited movie qualified as X-rated.
He said it got down the point where they were bargaining curse words:
“Can I keep these two fucks? If you let me keep two fucks, I’ll give up one motherfucker and a shit.”
Yea i knew. Was objecting to him getting his start there. He was in the business before Ed. Maybe you meant his big break or directorial debut.. That im not sure of. But he started out before Eddie was my point.
A lot of those same dudes have echoed similar sentiments in da past regarding da finance of black movies. Niggas'll switch up in a heartbeat.
