Want an Oscar? Make better movies.
She was booted off the show, wonder if she and Smith have a long histry of animosity toward each other.
Has Carlton weighed in yet?
I'm rather surprised he didn't.
“Ride Along” took over the box-office from Star Wars:
Heard outside the “cina-plex”: “Oh my God, we have to go see a black movie this weekend because Spike Lee might think we are a racist.”
Metro-sexuals/millenials/PajamaBoys influenced by Spike Lee. We are F**king DOOOOOOMED!
I guess we need a "Math is Hard" Black Barbie now...
I listened to the video, and she made sense. She started talking to Jada P. Smith, and ended up talking to Will Smith, who did not say anything. In fact, she asked Jada if he was capable of speaking for himself. So I suspect, that there is some animus between them. I liked what she said, admire her courage to say it publicly, and appreciate that she realizes that Actors/Actresses exist to entertain. When you become political, people stop judging your acting, and start judging the actor. It has ended many a career. Just sayin....
Chi-Raq was awful, Samuel Jackson in H8ful 8 had the same attitude as every other SJ movie and Creed was just another Rocky sequel. And since when are Oscars given for cable movies like Beasts of No Nation? Good efforts, but I would not use the word “snub”. If you want more nominees, give black actors better roles.
Mflr
She has a good point.
Lookie here, look who once appeared on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

Wow. I’d there history here, or just someone who’s tired of special snowflakes?
Wow. So a black actress calls is like it really is.
I love Aunt Viv! Laughing. This is excellent. Forget about the sentence about the Obamas. Love when she says, basically, where was Will when the cast wanted to go to the bosses and get more money for everyone. They went to star Will to help them, be united, but Will said “My contract is MY contract. And y’all’s contract is y’all’s contract.” And then Aunt Viv says “Karma’s a bitch.”
Also loved “Where is yo man, ain’t he got a mouth on himself?” And how their studio only casts their own family, and how Will IS part of the system, and how the Pinkett Smiths want poorer blacks in Hollywood to bite the hands that feed them BECAUSE WILL DIDNT GET NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR???
ROFL, funny must see.
