    Meanwhile they slobber all over white boys on screen every chance they get

    Zoe Saldana is with a white boy in every single one of her movies (except possibly the Nina Simone one, which I haven't seen)

    Ava DeVernay cast Chris Pine as the leading man in her next movie opposite a black chick. As director, she controls the casting

    Interracial for me, but not for thee

    If I sound like a broken record it's because the shit keeps happening. The hypocrisy is real

    Why let facts get in the way of acting butthurt and victimized

    Meanwhile black actresses never get called out for erasing black men in their films. At least not on a public stage. This defense is HIGHLY credible to their double standard, high time brothas start using it. They are contributing to the REAL erasing of leading black males in movies. Sistas knew they had to expand to broader audiences to put themselves on and they know it helps reach a wider audience so they know what they are doing when going after black men that attempt to expand out. Keeping themselves ahead of black men.

    That would mean they stay out of work and we all know how that ends. Starts with a B and ends with roke.

    Good point.

    I saw the trailer and while it is good to see Kate Winslet on film, it isn't about romance in times of disaster but the most basic thing; survival. Idris and Kate have relationships before they met and they happen to have some commonalities. In a survival situation, be it two or more people, you need each other to survive. It looks interesting and it also reminds me of another film called The Edge with Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin and Elle MacPherson.

    I saw the movie True To The Game two nights ago. One of the characters has a White gf/henchwoman. Another scene of a gangster whose gf left him and his friend brought a WW.

    The first TV Spot for The Mountain Between Us I have seen today.




    The first review of the film I seen today on http://variety.com/2017/film/festivals/the-mountain-between-us-review-1202553321/ by Peter Debruge. He mentions the romance in the movie lacking...

    "...As icy plane crashes go, this one pales next to “Alive” or “The Grey,” while in terms of character insight, it’s got nothing on Julia Loktev’s “The Loneliest Planet” from a few years back. Whereas “The Mountain Between Us” was adapted from 300-odd semi-literate pages of three- and four-word sentences (Wilson’s prose makes Dan Brown sound like David Foster Wallace), Loktev’s film found more depth in a short story called “Expensive Trips Nowhere.” Incidentally, that would have been a perfect title for a movie in which neither the subzero temperature nor the romantic heat penetrates more than skin deep."


    But he also doesn't seem too much of a fan of the book, so his full review sounds like he went in not being a fan. But at least it sounds like they didn't take the romance out of the movie, so the only question is does the romantic chemistry actually lacks and did they keep it as shallow as this critic says. Those re-shoots could mean so.

    "I Do... Until I Don't" - Amber Heard and Wyatt Cenac play a IR couple in a open marriage(there is a sex scene between them in this as well.)



    It's in select theatres now. Critics are brutal towards this movie, so go see it at your own risk. lol.

    Bella Hadid's sister GiGi's boyfriend Zayn Malik is doing the Title song for A Mountain Between Us called Dusk Till Dawn featuring Sia.

    Promoting this to a Universal audience and staying away from a black audience is a good move.

    "A Mountain Between Us" is supposed to be Oscar bait, so that was never an issue.

    Promoting Oscar bait movies with an Interracial Love Story Universally is rare. Back in the day they use to keep IR love stories close to a black audience(but obviously that is hard to do now.). Just like A Unite Kingdom for it to be promoted universally is a step in finding that support audience for black men and white women interracial movies/shows. Hopefully they would do the same with the tv show Life Sentence.

    Racist and bigots are coming out full force on this of course if you read some of the comments on it twitter page https://twitter.com/MountainBetween/status/908823628518645760

    But Idris' fans, fans of the book and the reviews are steady and is growing https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/sep/14/mountain-between-us-review-toronto-film-festival-tiff

    2 Days In New York

    I tried doing a search in the thread, but cant get it to work right.

    This is on Netflix

    Synopsis

    Parisian Marion is living in New York with her son, in order to be closer to Jack, the boy's father (Marion's ex-boyfriend from 2 Days in Paris). She and her new boyfriend Mingus have a cozy relationship until the arrival of Marion's father, sister and sister's boyfriend, on vacation from France. The group's two days together are tested by "unwitting racism and sexual frankness", with no one left unscathed
