Saw "Trouble Man" on TV several times. Channel 7 ABC NYC loved showing that one after 11:30 pm. I used to think the film quality (image quality) was on point.

Saw "Superfly" a couple of times on videotape.

I'm on dialogue-quoting basis with Foxy Brown and Superfly, less so with Trouble Man.

He didn't really make any more blaxploitation movies after Sweetback (and technically, Sweetback was not a blaxploitation movie per se)

Ive seen quite a few but black caesar is the best especially for the james brown soundtrack and I have told that my vhs was a treasure and that no matter what I do to never get rid of it because its rare.
