Who can't relate to this movie? I mean all the scenes when they were teens hit home man.. I'm not from Inglewood tho.. My nikka Mike risked it all for the poom poom tho.. I remember being on the edge of my seat when Stacy and his chick came in that room
Man that nikka would've been killed if he was caught lol. You know how we are about our little sisters! nikka got his ass kicker for touching her booty.

And just think...we went from these to Tyler Perry being the face of our culture withinthe same decade

All I can say is that I'm glad that I was in my 20s when all of this came out and at a time when it was important for young blacks to see this types of images and castings

Tyler Perry has made stronger Black characters and movies than anyone though. Whether or not you think the shyt is good is another story.

This era of black films were all classics.

The Wood
The Best Man
Love & Basketball
Two Can Play That Game
The Brothers

I rocked with the Best Man, even though to me the premise of the movie was .... So you gon tell me this niigga writes a book about himself and his peoples and their mutual experiences, especially where he knocks down his mans girl, and he's like "I'ma just change the names, niiggas will never know" , and then he's shocked when everything goes sideways? I enjoyed it nonetheless... Terence Howard's character had me crying

Aside from The Wood this is the era that killed African American film for me. Everything after that was love movies.

They were decent movies but

Easily one of my favorite movies (hence the avi)

*walks in the corner store*

WHERE DA ASPINNN AT?

 

[OGBIGBOY187]

nikka got some grits like he thought someone was finna cook breakfast

 

[Ol’Otis]

Their adult versions kinda held the film back. If they were never introduced it would be a lot better

I’ve been thinking ur right
They really should’ve focused more on their teenage years

 

[SAINT]

Me and my closest boys from HS used to always throw this shyt on. Damn it’s crazy how we each went our separate ways
