Is Aaliyah and Jet Li the most unrealistic movie couple in history?

[Emoryal]

Not at all. In fact I just saw something similar on reality tv

 

[detach]

They didn't kiss because of Jet LI loyalty to his wife. Jet Li turned down many roles because he refused to make love scenes.

 

[Problematic Pat]

At least they made a point of it though....

The hell is this????

The Protégé with Maggie Q and Michael Keaton

Keaton's role HAD to be meant for somebody half his age because the romance in this joint was straight

For reference, in the movie, Sam Jackson is her mentor that she's known since she was literally a kid. In the movie, he's celebrating his 70-something birthday. He's 70-something in real life. Michael Keaton is 70 exactly. Maggie Q is 42.

Thecoli dream

That was a good ass movie. I remember jet li choking back the tears when they asked him about Aaliyah's death.

 

[FLYINHAWAIIAN]

Agree

I watched the film 3 times before I even noticed that there was a love angle.

You already know how it is...if you black you gotra be Superman; if you non-black then Clark Kent will do.

 

[Real]

Mostly cuz of racism. They never let the Asian guy get the girl in American movies back in the day

Different World

 

[Clayton Endicott]

Nah, Padme and Anakin in the prequels got them beat. They had the chemistry of the Eight Tray Crips and the Rolling 60s in 1986.

Damn

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

There's a few of these 2000s-ish mixed race movies where the leads don't hook up and it's pretty obvious the producers didn't think it would fly with audiences.

Did my nikka from Save the Last Dance ever smash?

 

[Ripp]

All 3 of these movies must have had the same production/directing staff:

Romeo Must Die
Exit Wounds
Cradle to the Grave

There was a round-robin of the same actors too.

DMX and Drag-On?

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

Wait for it

I rest my case.

 

[Spence]

That friendzone hug at the end after Li almost fukking died

 

[Spence]

Did my nikka from Save the Last Dance ever smash?

At the minimum he got a makeup session on the train.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

At least they made a point of it though....

All them brehs on the Hillman campus from nerds like Dwayne, to frat boys and she does this
