Black folks care way more about the Oscars than cacs do. Did people really think that Leo cared about never winning one until a couple of years ago? He was still wealthy & smashing supermodels with or without a stupid gold trophy:mjlol:

thats exactly my point bruh. i loooooove my people. but we need that white validation. we shyt on the bet awards, but put so much stock in white award shows. nothing is true unless a white person says it. a person with 54 twitter followers can post an "observation" on black people and the suffering we go through, and that shyt go viral when we can be saying the same thing, shouting from roofs with megaphones and its just "ok". not until a white person acknowledges something do we feel our thoughts are validated and we are worthy, and i hate that

and with that leo shyt, i hated that. who the fukk is leonardo dicaprio? wheres the campaign to get will smith to win an oscar? james earl jones? danny glover?

i just hate the world

Hit dog will holler...... but there is an obvious theme on this forum, and its sad and pathetic.... only a truly undesirable motherfukka would say grinding = penetration...

Let me clue yall in... you can't have real penetrative sex on camera and label the movie R........ I don't care how real it looks to someone whom has never seen a real life naked woman before... :pachaha:

That's exactly a major problem. Add to it the other side (for the most part) doesn't want to say anything positive.

As much as people say they don't care, they do because they want a "fair treatment/observation" from people who don't want to do it. It's hanging on their words, even though they don't realize they're doing it.

End of the day though I think everyone wants to be included in one way or another tbh.

Nobody wants out of the pack/society.

Proof?


ANYONE who’s heard Angelina Jolie gush about her husband’s charms can guess Billy Bob Thornton has something special.Halle Berry doesn’t have to guess.

“He’s very sexy,” Berry says of her co-star in the upcoming “Monster’s Ball.”

“I think he’s handsome, absolutely, but his sex appeal comes from something else – the way he looks at you, the way he takes you in. He makes everyone feel special; he takes the time to talk to you and look at you.”

“Vanilla Sky” brings together real-life lovers Penelope Cruz and Tom Cruise, and “Ocean’s Eleven” paired George Clooney and Julia Roberts.

But neither coupling produced the kind of sparks that flew when Berry and Thornton hit the sheets.

Their scene was filmed on a closed set and the resulting footage was so hot that a minute’s worth had to be cut to avoid an NC-17 rating.

Even director Marc Forster was blown away. “I felt like I was watching two people who had no idea they were being watched,” he said.

The savagery with which the two characters tear off each other’s clothes and fall naked to the floor in a frenzied, drunken coupling has left early-screening audiences feeling almost uncomfortably voyeuristic, too.

“Those characters are getting their needs filled,” Berry told The Post during a quick trip to New York to promote the film, which is already garnering critical acclaim leading up to its Dec. 26 release.

Berry plays Letitia, the wife of a death-row prisoner (played by Sean “Puffy” Combs), and Thornton is Hank, the emotionally scarred prison guard who executed him.

“It’s polar opposites sometimes that make the best chemistry,” said Berry. “That’s what was displayed in the movie.”

Berry says the fact that both stars are secure in their marriages helped them leave their inhibitions at the door.

“I didn’t feel like [Thornton] would use this scene as a way to exploit the situation and take advantage of me, and I don’t think he felt that, either,” she said.

Berry says she and Thornton “got really close really fast” during the 21-day shoot.

Still, Thornton insists Jolie wasn’t jealous. “She and I have a real strong relationship, and we’re the best friends in the world,” he told The Post.

Berry’s husband of a year, singer Eric Benet, was a different story.

“I had a screening just for him to let him deal with it,” Berry admits. “At the end of the day, he was able to say, ‘I’m really proud of you for the risk you took.’ But then he said, ‘But I don’t like seeing you with another man like that!’ “

The 33-year-old actress says her notorious “three-second boob shot” opposite Hugh Jackman in this year’s “Swordfish” prepped her for this role.

“If I hadn’t done that and been over it, when I got to the love scene in the ‘Monster’s Ball’ script, I would have stopped reading and said, ‘Not for me.’ “

As it was, she couldn’t put the script down. “I was shocked; I was riveted; I was moved, sad, angry,” she says. “I felt I could totally relate to this woman character – she was strong, yet very vulnerable; she was angry, but very fragile; she went on a journey and, at the end, through her perseverance and strength, she bettered her life.

“At that moment, I called up my manager and said, ‘Let the fight begin! I want this.’ “
And she did have a fight on her hands to convince Forster that, despite her many glamorous roles in mainstream blockbusters, she could get down and dirty in a sparse, shoestring-budget film that veers from tender to shockingly brutal.

Ironically, the A-lister – who weathered rumors that she’d demanded a $300,000 bonus to take her top off in “Swordfish”- says she walked away from “Monster’s Ball” with just $5,000

Why would she feel thr need to break it to Eric Benet like that if it was a body double? She also took a huge paycut to live out her bedwench fantasy :mindblown: you can't make this shyt up.
