Beasts of no nation was good but let's be real. You would never see Matthew mac(not going to attempt to spell his name) or Leo star in straight to Netflix movies.

I like Idris but let's be real his hype is overblown. Why has someone who has never been an oscar contender considered our best actor.

The dude from 12 years a slave deserves more praise.
Everyone and their mother is starring in straight to NETFLIX movies and soon Matt and Leo will be on that train too fukk is you even sayin?

With Leo maybe you have a point with but Matthew McConaughey has been making a fool of himself in Lincoln commercials for about 5 years now, dude is not above Netflix in any way.

He was cool in American Gangster.:yeshrug:

Plus those Disney roles small as they are, keep you in the spotlight because they do billions.
But he does need one or two more classic legacy defining roles, because at this point op is true. The Wire is really the only classic character he has on his resume.

Everything else will be forgettable 10 years from now. People will be watching Thor like, oh i didn't know Idris Elba was in this. Luther? Never heard of it.

He fought off a crazy becky while being a faithful husband to Beyonce.

Was one of the best characters in one of the best black shows in TV history.

If that doesn't solidify you in the black community idk what will :pachaha:


Is the bar really that low for you?
