What happened to black comedy movies?

[Yung Yogurt]

Movies like Friday, 3 strikes, How High, even Blue Streak were all simple comedy movies that are still funny today. I can't remember the last time a movie like this dropped that was remotely funny. I guess we can blame fakkit ass Tyler Perry and Kevin Hart smfh.

Not that many funny black comedians today that act well on a movie screen lately. Back in the day you had power house nikkas like Martin Lawrence, Bernie Mac, Chris Tucker, and etc... who we got now?

They're still around.. They just go straight to DVD or Blu Ray

Kevin Hart movies at least be funny, Tyler Perry drops pure trash

True that, but some of them movies were funny as shyt without the star power. I don't even know the nikka from 3 strikes by name and How High had 2 rappers with no acting experience and was still funny.

the corner of transexual grandmoms with c00n behavior patterns that teaching life lessons

It's just a period of nothing really worthwhile. Although I will say keep dibs on Craig Robinson, he has slowly developed serious game. He has wide range appeal without phoning it in.

Black movies fell off around the same time as black stand up. Times change.

Damon Wayans Jr needs to start making more movies he's legit funny, loved him on The Other Guys.

Tyler Perry threw them in the bushes

Tyler Perry threw them in the bushes

around the same time as the rock star shyt in the mid 00s. Black entertainment didn't fare well in the internet age.

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Y'all are the reason, y'all turned y'all backs on them for them silly white comedies
