Nah....he wants to be an A-list actor. He wants to be in big budget action movies and superhero remakes just like white actors are. He doesn't want to be reduced to tiny budget urban comedy movies or urban romance movies just because he's a black dude. He wants to have that Will Smith lane. As long as he doesn't say anything foul....let him cook. I wish the brother success. I know if I started a business, I wouldn't just want to sell to blacks. It's not enough money. Too niche. I'd want white people to buy my products too, and I'd be marketing to them heavy. Sorry :dame:

He was in a big budget action movie and how well did that work out for him? :sas1: Perhaps he should have shucked and jived more. :umad:
Will never abandoned his core base which is blacks or acted like he was too good for blacks once he become an A-Lister. He regularly appeared on 106 & Park, Essence mag, NAACP Awards etc. Maybe that's because he has a black wife to check him. :sas2:

having lived in LA, anywhere that's not the hood, black people are c00ns, I've never seen anything like it in my life
This is not the first time I heard this from Cali. They say anywhere that is not South LA, Inglewood, Compton, and Oakland, black people c00n hard as fukk over there. Is it really that bad over at Cali?:dead:

You're pitiful....Will Smith definitely did the same thing. I definitely remember him shying away from being pigeon holed or boxed in as a "black" actor. The dude MBJ didn't abandon anything. He did Fruitvale, which shined a huge light on Oscar Grant's death. And he's taking one of the whitest great white hope films ever made and making a black sequel. You're just upset because you can't live through the women he's dating vicariously. I'm done with this convo.

Breh stop :comeon: You're calling people pitiful and you are well known for being a top c00n around here. And what gave you the idea that I'm upset :what:I don't know him or find him attractive enough to care who he dates. :camby:
After Fruitvale Station MBJ did a string of token black roles in white films and then Fantastic 4 flopped and now his career is up in the air. If Creed flops (which I don't think it will) his chances of becoming the next top black actor are null and void.
Will never did "black films" but he always stayed connected to the black audience, something MBJ did not take notes on if he is trying to be the next Will Smith.

Sorry, I don't think that I made it clear in my other posts but I'm not suggesting that black people should boycott all of his films; I just don't think that we as a community should go out of our way i.e. pay to watch a terribly bad film of his just because he's in it, to support someone who doesn't really care about us and/or our issues.

Again, what you said had nothing to do with the points that I raised so I don't know why you keep bringing it up against me. I'm sure that as a black guy, you already know the negative effects of generalising people.

Why are you comparing a celebrity apologising due to bad press to a genuine tragedy? It's not the same thing and you know it.

I don't think that Zoe Saldana is fully black- look at her mother. I don't have a problem with Kendrick Lamar and I disagree with those that do based on his relationship, so I don't know why you're bringing this up.

Just as there are black women who hate black men and support white supremacy, there are black men who do the same. Both are just as, if not more, detrimental to the wider black community as actual white supremacists.

Btw, the only reason why I didn't know about Nia Long's comments is because I only joined the Coli about a month ago, not because of bias.

How do u know Michal's new film is a bad film?
Did u see it?
Most ppl who saw the screening,
said it was a great film.

I brought up the South Carolina shooting because, Dylan Roof was forgiven immediately. Micheal B's offense, pales in comparison.

Zoe Saldana is blk, an Afro latina...most ppl in the States are not fully blk.
I brought up Kendrick Lamar because he received the same backlash as Micheal B... which leads to the assumption , that Micheal's personal life plays a role in maybe not your backlash, but in the overall backlash he's receiving.

i absolutely agree, male and female c00ns are detrimental to the blk community.
Yet, Also we have to understand, ppl make bad decisions, if they apologize, and are not a habitatual offender, why cant we forgive?

Why do undeserving brothas deserved to be held down? :usure:Should undeserving sistas be held down?


:sas1:
Once you reveal yourself to be a new black on some "I don't see color" bull, why should he still be supported?

Brehs like Mike B. treat blacks as if they are frivilous to his success and all he needs is white people. Once he does not get that success he then wants he runs back to blacks for hugs and to pander about how much he loves his people.
You better trust and believe if Fantastic Four did better at the box office there would be no Breakfast Club Interview he would be on Good Morning America talking about how much he loves Seinfeld.

If you treat black women as if they are frivilous don't get upset when they treat you as such, there should be no anger towards black women not being there for you, when you acted as if you didn't need them to begin with.

I never said that undeserving brothas deserve to be held down. I just acknowledge the fact that, real sistas do hold down undeserving brothas ...

Micheal ought to be forgiven because he acknowledged, his wrongs.
Alotta c00ns are unapologetic about their c00ning... Charles Barkley, Raven, Stephen A Smith etc...
Micheal admitted he was wrong, he apologized. Let us forgive.


If fantastic four did great, would Micheal had buck dance?
Either or he did, either or he apologized.
Why can't y'all forgive him?
What more should he do?
Blks R quicker to forgive whts, than we forgive blks... smh

How does Micheal B treat blk women as if they're frivOlous ?
