I just looked up this movie. It was crowdfunded on Indiegogo back in 2013 (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-bounce-back) and was finally given a release date of this year back in January (http://blogs.indiewire.com/shadowandact/shemar-moores-crowdfunded-rom-com-the-bounce-back-finally-gets-a-release-poster-20160129). I need to know what the demographics are for the folks who crowdfunded this movie. If it was mostly Black Women, they got to be feeling some type of way that they ended up crowdfunding an IR RomCom when they were probably expecting a Black RomCom. EDIT: Skimming through the Facebook page of this movie (https://www.facebook.com/TheBounceBackMovie/), I see mostly replies/comments from white women.
I don't think the movie hasn't been released yet. There's no updated release date info on IMDB, Wikipedia, Flixster, or on the movie's Facebook page. Even when it does get released, it's a crowdfunded indie movie being released by an indie distributer. The movie is gonna get a limited theatrical release at best.
Hope the sales live up to expectations when released. I did not know that Snoop Dogg was one of the producers of Meet The Blacks. It has the cameos of Mike Tyson,Paul Mooney,and others. Ms.Henao who played Mr.Epp's wife is Columbian.
Cheesy as fuck....but Save the last dance has always been one that i like. Lol. Mainly because Fredro Starr is sexy in it.
Haha! I never really noticed how pure white she was until i watched it again last week lol. The acting was pretty shocking but.. they were very cute together. Especially creating a show on the train
Check out One Night Stand, Jump Tomorrow, Rachel Getting Married(a beautiful wedding scene, even though the story surrounds Anne Hathaway's character). Guess Who's Coming To Dinner(Sidney Poitier, need I say more).
That racist woman got off the subway when they kissed. That was a classic IR movie which made money. Sadly,there are not too many of those in the US. Yes,One Night Stand sets the standard in IR movies.
Thanks Gorath. I will be sure to check them all out!!! It's good to know there's at least a couple of decent IR movies.
It is very unfortunate not too many are made!! Maybe you could put together a low budget film with a white woman and black man off this site lol. :freehug:
Also check out the film Diary of a Tired Black Man, Pieces of April, Swirl, 5 Flights Up and Slaughter(I have said it more than once about Slaughter and I will say it again, probably the most tender interracial love scene before and since).
There are many of these films that have been out. But it's about the white man getting the Asian, Latinas or other women. Like Captain James T. Kirk, he gets the woman every time.
Fair enough. The Asians are sought after more than the whites there though right? And thank you I'll check it out.
This weekend, I watched the movie "The Night Before" that came out this past November. Anthony Mackie fucks Ilana Glazer in the movie.
It's a stoner movie. I personally would rate the movie maybe a 2 or 2.5 out of 5. No higher than a 3 out of 5.
