I’m with you. I miss that 95-03 era where there was a decent, although recycled cast, of black romance movies. Love Jones, The Wood, Love and Basketball, The Brothers, Best Man, etc.

Damn near every black movie is a romance or comedy

Black films don't get mainstream push or support.........unless it's about slaves, butlers ,maids....and currently lbgt issues.
