Some of these films are only here for nostalgic value |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 46
|
not many black people I know hav heard of The Spook Who Sat By The Door |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 25
|
Naw, with Nothin' But a Man |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 27
|
I agree. I might replace Spook with Malcolm X. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 51
|
Replace Spook!!? The most empowering of the 28? |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 58
|
Beat Street. Purple Rain is too popular to remove, |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 59
|
Replace it with X - more beloved and potentially empowering. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 62
|
This is about loving freedom!! Enough to kill or die for it! |

Remove The Wiz. Strongly consider removing Waiting to Exhale |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 2
|
The Wiz cannot be removed. |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 3
|
The Wiz is a terrible movie. I've said this for years now. |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 17
|
And while we're at it take 5 Heartbeats off too. Replace with Ray. |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 20
|
No. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 35
|
And yet I still stand. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 38
|
Your irrelevancy? Agreed |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 40
|
Coo-coo! COO-COO!! |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 41
|
So? That's not the point. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 52
|
The Wiz isn't fun for me to watch. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 61
|
For _you_. Blackness is bigger than _you_ and your experience. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 64
|
I was just refuting your statement about it being "fun to watch" |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 75
|
Yes. Geez. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 80
|
lol!!! right |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 105
|
Naw, there's plenty of folks who'll argue me down that The Wiz |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 107
|
just because it wasn't fun FOR YOU doesn't mean the rest of us |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 101
|
Most of the songs aren't original to this movie. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 108
|
no one gives a shit if the songs are original to the movie |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 114
|
Day 17!! I have only seen 16 of those all the way thru. |
|

Coming to America is missing. |

just let your soul glo is embedded in the black lexicon |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 10
|
black vs Black |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 11
|
YES. |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 16
|
Coming to America is a far better film than Harlem Nights. |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 21
|
quality is not the point. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 54
|
Double the reason. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 135
|
Life is a better movie than Harlem Nights |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 60
|
No one is quoting Purple Rain?!?!?! "I need to see some ______ |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 113
|
true |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 36
|
Definitely |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 45
|
I'd replace HN with CTA in a heartbeat. I'd replace Love Jones |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 47
|
yeah Boomerang needs to be on the list |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 74
|
yeah. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 84
|
No |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 98
|
Nah, Love Jones is essential. I'd add Boomerang in place of E'sB |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 112
|
I posted a quote from CTA on my fb and 5 people didn't get it |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 99
|
No Malcolm X ?? |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 7
|
I was fully expecting to see this in the list |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 22
|
or Cooley High? |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 26
|
|
RE: SOMEthing on this list can come off to make room for Cooley High |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 31
|
Spook could be removed for Cooley High. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 53
|
Spook is a non negotiable! |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 67
|
several of my faves are missing. Several that I think ppl should see are... |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 76
|
Fair-- Ima have to write this whole list off though |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 91
|
No Cooley High? WTF |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 69
|
ikr? |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 88
|
phew |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 8
|
Stormy Weather, Cabin In The Sky, Nothing But A Man... |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 12
|
Nothing But a Man should replace The Spook Who Sat Behind the Door |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 18
|
No |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 33
|
I dunno if it's first-tier essential viewing, though. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 34
|

Claudine should be on there. I didn't know "devil in a blue dress" |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 13
|
I'm Gonna Git You Sucka! |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 14
|
I've seen everything on that list except Women of Brewsters Place |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 15
|
I'm short by 5. |
|
Jan 28th 2015 | 23
|
It's been so long since I've seen Love Jones Ion't remember a lot of it! |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 24
|
ITHOTN is a good-ass movie |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 28
|
Once for a project, in HS, I was given a choice to watch and write |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 32
|
YES! I think the 3 vs 1 scene is more powerful than the slap |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 73
|
I never watched this but I will now just to see that slap |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 102
|
The slap scene would make a great animated gif |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 116
|
It exists. Not linking it here b/c I want dude to see it |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 134
|
Me neither |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 39
|
I was just about to make a post about my love for Eve's Bayou |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 48
|
mozelle is one of my favourite characters in life. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 129
|
A soldier's story is also in my top 5 GOAT films period. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 49
|
Movie hit me hard as hell |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 92
|
another good one |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 94
|
no Temptations Car Wash etc but Harlem Nights?he needs HIS card pulled |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 50
|
Temptations or Jacksons could replace The Wiz. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 55
|
no doubt |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 57
|
Nah, both of those are TV miniseries. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 77
|
Temptations is a TV movie and doesn't count* |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 63
|
"Women of Brewster Place" is on there - that's a TV movie |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 65
|
I just posted elsewhere that Roots - a (7 hr) miniseries |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 72
|

|
Jan 29th 2015 | 78
|

|
Jan 29th 2015 | 82
|
I do just fine, thanks. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 85
|
seeing as how important movies like Malcolm X are missing |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 86
|
roots stays. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 87
|
If it's not a theatrical feature film, it goes. Non-negotiable. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 90
|
you lost your right to a say |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 97
|
Coo-coo! COO-COO!! |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 103
|
Nope. Both should stay. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 118
|
The Last Dragon needs to be added |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 56
|
Neither is ubiquitous enough. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 66
|
i disagree |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 71
|
There are enough awful movies on this list to where |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 81
|
You're wrong. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 83
|
actually she isnt |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 95
|
She is. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 119
|
kung fu black experience |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 123
|
Sure. I wouldn't add it to this list. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 126
|
i would and i did |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 144
|
replace Devil in a Blue Dress with Glory or Malcolm X |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 68
|
I concur completely. f you want Denzel in all his glory, either |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 110
|
Roots is not a film and needs to be removed on principle. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 70
|
LOL... I knew you would be in here shittin on this list... |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 79
|
this is cracka ass cracka(c) type of black movie list |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 96
|
I haven't seen 3 movies on this list |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 100
|
Glory should be on this list. Take off Eve's Bayou. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 106
|
^^^That Patriarchy. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 111
|
you see it |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 124
|
lol, okay, then move something else. I'm just saying Glory belongs |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 125
|
we already have a soldier movie |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 128
|
hell no... Eve's Bayou can't be moved. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 115
|
EB ain't that essential. That or Rosewood can make room for Glory |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 117
|
And you call yourself a poet. SMH. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 120
|
lol ..in place of Glory? lol |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 121
|
the story, acting, cinematography, etc...in EB is amazing |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 127
|
Disagree with most of that list. |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 109
|
my gf said boomerang and house party were missing... |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 130
|
House Party should probably go on |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 133
|
House Party needs to be on there somewhere.. and Do the Right Thing |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 137
|
Do the Right Thing is there at #9 |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 138
|
so you're saying they need to SWIIIIIIITCH? |

Jan 29th 2015 | 139
|
^^^tryna give b-touch a stroke |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 143
|
Now that I think about it, Cooley High should be there too..... |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 140
|
Honorable mention-- To Kill a Mockingbird |
|
Jan 29th 2015 | 141
|
