Yup. We had
-Just Another Girl on the IRT
-Strapped
-Juice
-Crooklyn
-above the rim
-new jack city
-black and white
-hoodlum
-clockers
-he got game
-love jones
-in too deep
-Belly

I don't consider He Got Game a hood movie. It's a biographical/coming of age film (loosely based on Marbury).

@BrothaZay

Colors isn't a hood movie either. It's a twisted interpretation of the gang scene in Los Angeles. I cringe watching it especially after reading Do or Die (book about gangbanging in LA).

We need to have a thread about what is and isn't a hood movie.

Biker Boyz is a classic now? :mjlol:

That film killed Derek Luke's career :francis:
Then explain Megan Good, Larry Fishburne. Angela Basset. Their careers went along fine. Derek Luke should have been Killmonger , taken over Michael
B. Jordan’s role - at least he would have been more believable and a better actor.

Meagan Good hasn't had much of career to lose anything. Fishburne and Bassett can take a bad role. Luke went from Antwone Fisher in his first movie to Biker Boyz the next year. He should have kicked his agent's ass for that. That's how you stall momentum as a Black up and coming actor.
