‘The Color Purple’ Lost Warner Bros $40 Million

[Marlo Barksdale]

That's a lie dude. The 2 majority Black cast movies out right now are Bob Marley: One Love and American Fiction. Did you support those non slave movies?

You missing the point. The vast majority of the movies that are heavily pushed have been about Black Trauma. 9 times outta 10 “they” wanna promote Black struggle on camera.

I personally never been interested in Bob Marley, but I’d expect it to do numbers.

Never heard of American Fiction before now. I just looked and saw it has a relatively small budget that makes sense why it’s not promoted heavy. And even the film’s description is making fun of the Black Trauma tropes.

Your 9 out of 10 times stat doesn't ring true. The 2 movies out now would make it 8 out of 10 at best.
"They" aren't single handedly doing anything. All these movies have Black people involved in the production.

Good Day & B1

That last sentence spoke volumes "They don't need this crap to make a profit, they just need it to exist'

Yes. The real goal is to destroy the the black family by planting destructive seeds in our minds. They already make billions with their other movies.

There are always outliers. Look at the last 10-15 years. It’s overwhelmingly either Black Trauma or the alphabet agenda.

Lena Waithe is Black and we’ve seen what agenda she pushes in all her films.

Dont act blind to the fact they have no interest in pushing strong, Black males and positive stories pushed overall.

You can kil 100 ni**as and get celebrated for it. But diss them and it’s a wrap for ya.

ONLY AN IDIOT WOULD
SPEND 100MS ON A COLOR PURPLE REMAKE

as a MUSICAL

straight up, i didn't see it because I don't like musicals. That's it. I would've seen it if it wasn't a musical that's on them.

Let's see here are the 25 best Black movies this year. I think 2 to 3 fall in the Black trauma department. You bringing up alphabet gang is your issue. I wasn't even talking about that.

Regarding Black trauma movies. Get introspective on why Jewish people say, 'never forget' while it seems we can't wait to forget our past unfortunate history.

I'm not big on black trauma porn but there is a lot of truth to this comment.

Makes me re evaluate my take

I knew somethin was up when I saw it was on Max a few weeks after it came out in theaters....

It's still in theaters in Colombia.

And other studios will look at this and say "nope..." as well. These posters in here aren't understanding that.

Maybe they’ll realize that other black stories need to be told.

It hits different when you win.

In the Movie Celie dips out with Shug and her New Man despite her loving Shug.

In the Book Mr. Dies she gets her inheritance Shug and the crew gets together and they dip on her.

No winning in that.

People are tired of these worn out dogmas and stereotypes and yes massa! you so fine massa! type of flicks, we want empowering black films with strong black male figures in it who are heterosexual!

 

[Fani Willis fan]

I swear we getting all of these trash feminist films because hollywood producers don't want to pay the male stars the money they're worth to make good content.. these shyts are bleeding money as expected.
