I love blaxpoltation. Have you seen Black Caesar?
Got it on the shelf right now. Both I & II.
Check out "The Spook Who Sat By The Door" if you get a chance. It's not really true blaxpoitation but it was during that timeframe. One of the best has to be "Three The Hard Way"
I've been meaning to check out "The Spook." I just haven't gotten around to ordering it. And I do remember Three the Hard Way.
I saw this promo a while back, did it ever come out? Has the Blaxploitation message gotten any better?
It's due to come out in September. It seems its not gotten any better; the new movie, which seems to be meant as a parody/tribute, sticks pretty close to the blaxploitation scrip, only now its exagerrated.
Wasn't Michael Jai White born to play this role? I mean, who else could have done it but the brother who played Mike Tyson?
Maybe Samuel Jackson? Snoop?
Yeah, this role is Taylor made for his limited acting range. From the trailer, he fits in perfectly.
Is he limited or type casted due to his physique? In my opinion, Will Smith is severely limited as he plays the same character in every movie...Will Smith.
My answer is yes to both. He has been type casted because of his physique, but in the same instance, I think his acting ability is in question. Maybe it's the roles he has played but I have yet to see a performance that displayed more than B list talent.
