Straight Outta Compton makes 60.5 million Opening Weekend

[Cabbage Patch]

I think this is the important part



I feel like this reads weird, because they meant to imply that mission impossible and ant man played in way more theaters than Straight outta Compton did. That's impressive either way.

Or maybe they were trying to be slick - intentionally.

we dont shoot up theaters get this c00n shyt outta here

Those who try to erase history are doomed to repeat it. Yes, the white boys shyt up theaters. No, nikkas acting foolish with weapons is not fairy tales.

let hollywood fool you brehs


i mean i'm not gay.. she ain't ugly.. i'd slide dikk in her... but come on now... she look like she shops at costco and works out at the gym... there is nothing stunning and amazing until she gets the million dollar makeup and pics with 1k dollar cameras and editing and soft light

if you saw her on the street you'd say she's a what........ dime? cute? sexy as fukk? what?

If I saw THIS pic, a broad looking like she just got out the gym, probably 7.5/10

But I counter with, have you seen her nudes? look those up and you'll change your tune breh. Her nudes makes her a solid 8

 

[Wacky D]

Since when do you have black men knocking bytches out in major movies and not get snubbed

nikkas would've got almost NO exposure for that shyt

The volume of female abuse that Dre did would've got that movie fukked

whats love got to do with it

There is nothing wrong with Jennifer Lawrence...you hipster nyggas are a trip

Ain't nothing 'right' with her basic ass neither

Her face is a 3-4
Her body is a 4
Her skin color is a ZERO

The for this basic white smut needs to stop

Yea I'd give her a 7.5. 8 cause she a fukking freak. I might have revisit those now that you brought it up

But I'd gladly throw her in the bushes for Meagan good. Hell Megan fox.

I'm not saying she's the best of the best, I'm just saying anyone calling her ugly is a fukkin fool. shyt I cant even name a time where she's looked less than 6.5 and she's taken some odd roles.

Global markets. Asians don't turn out for movies with black characters or black leads.

The Jew knew making confederate fantasies sold, so they made confederate fantasies last century. The Jew knows China is lukewarm on blackness. Follow the money.

Change reception in China.

Thats a lie

i can fully agree.. you gotta realize what dudes on here really mean tho

they say ugly... but have definitely fukked someone worse looking... and kissed them in the mouth

they probably should say over hyped but hey

[Mike Otherz]

i dont fx with jennifer lawrence. hottest white chicks to me are charlize theron and scarlett johannson. but ther is plenty of black actresses, and just regular black women that are hotter than all of them.

y’all wanted to see dre whoop dee barnes? shyt, this suppose to be an inspirational story about hood nikkaz rising up, not another "black men are the most wicked men in the world towards black women". we already got the “The Color Purple" for that shyt. i mean, that film was directed by the biggest name in hollywood, and nominated for a gazzilon oscars. and the book was written by a black feminist who hated black men so much she married a woman and a white man and hated on MLK, and im not even sure she was a real lesbian.

Thats a lie

You're the second or third nikka to post that, but no stats.

I'm just going by what the industry used to say about the difficulty of marketing black movies in Asia.

1) About That Popular 'Black Films Don't Sell Overseas' Industry Belief... Reality, Or Just Laziness?

Dude spent a lot of time trying to dispell the notion............. and I'm glad he expanded the definition of overseas to include places where a lot of black people live. That's not Asia, though, and it dosn't dispell the notion of what goes on in current tiger darling China.

2) Weekend B.O. April 26-28 (The U.S. Is Not The Center Of The B.O. Universe)

...proving again that the foreign markets are what really matter when it comes to box office numbers.

And that’s something I’ve always believed that black filmmakers should always keep in mind. I’ve always rejected this idea that “black films don’t travel" which is a crock of you-know-what.

Now I’m not saying that black films (or most films for that matter) will make as much as Iron Man 3. Of course not. But there are people everywhere around the world who would love to see black films. They love black culture (music, art, dance, fashion, etc.) but reject black cinema? Get outta here with that.

But he doesn't back himself up with numbers, only the opinion that Tyler Perry would do well in South America.

3) Will Smith: 'After Earth' Was the "Most Painful Failure in My Career"

Nothing about China

4) How the global box office is changing Hollywood

Although the global appetite for Hollywood movies is growing it’s stronger in some parts of the world than others. China and Russia are both big expanding markets. According to the MPAA, Chinese box office revenues grew by an astonishing 36% last year to make it the world’s second biggest movie market after the US. An Ernst & Young report predicts that the US domestic market will be eclipsed by China in 2020.

Although China imposes a quota on the number of US films that can be shown in its cinemas, Hollywood has been busy adapting to the needs of the Chinese moviegoer.

China imposes a quota on US films? So how many of those US films are black films which make the quota? I don't know how to find those numbers.



My goalpost moving: bootlegs don't count for shyt. Yes, the Chinese are kings of bootleg. If you want to count bootlegs, then make an argument to do so.
