The Spike Lee film, The Inside Man starred these two men.
Offtopic but 2000s Spike Lee was a different wave and further proves that Hollywood got a hate stroke for the dude.
Inside Man should had won something

Breh Teyler Perry does not distribute films. Think of his studio as a stage the productions are filmed on but another company has to distribute the material get it out to theaters, stores, streaming services ect. They wont let the black man have his own distribution they forcing Tyler Perry to have to go through Lions Gate to distribute all his films, plays, and movies. Distribution is where the real power and money is brehs. Cacs force us to distribute through them cuz without that they are cut out.Salute to Tyler Perry for making a studio to bypass all this bullshyt
And the kicker is the original bad boys was supposed to be two white comedians!!!!

I've read a few directors try to take credit for what he's trying to take credit for. They all conveniently forget that Eddie Murphy was one the biggest stars in the world, and that Beverly Hills Cop was an action film.
If you note, Murphy's previous films had white stars as co-leads. 48 Hours and Trading Places. He was a big enough star, with box office receipts that he was the solo star in Beverly Hills Cop.
Only his name and image is on the film poster.

Good point,but Beverly Hills Cop feels more like a comedy than action movie. I think action movies are expected to do numbers.And they didnt think an ACTION movie with two black actors,would do the numbers its supposed to. BHC being seen as a comedy isnt expected to do the same numbers. But I could be wrong and BHC was viewed as an action movie.

In the '90s, this was a real thing.
TV shows would have the same problem as far as securing international deals for syndication

I KNOW And they got the fukking nerve to say black actors and movies don't sell overseas?!?
muthafukka what?!?I don't think you looked to hard but there are probably other reasons like some white owned distribution companies having exclusive deals with certain chains. Meaning you can't get in certain chains without certain cacs. So if they feel a way about your product it's not happening.
One of those byproducts of systemic racism
Another fight for the black man.
