Movies with BM/WW Couples

Rollers

 

I haven't watched the trailer, but if this is the same Sam Richardson from the 2020 film "Hooking Up" we discussed in this thread.....SMH. Dude doesn't have leading man looks, he's a character actor.

 

I hate teasing, got the guts to tease but not to actually go there.

 

Oh, yeah. This movie is from 2003 or 2004, they weren't much progressive compared with today, the lack of IR isn't a surprise. Things are getting a little better now.

 

But that works for a comedy, right? And besides, isn't it good to see a black dude without "leading man looks" get to be the leading man, especially if he ends up with Milana Vayntrub (fingers crossed!)? Lol

 

Yeah she's hot, and yes a brotha that looks like Sam Richardson getting to be a leading man love interest to white actresses like Milana Vantrub and Brittany Snow is a sign of progress as far as I'm concerned. It's kind of like Don Cheadle in House of Lies.

 

Still haven't watched the trailer, but the way you & @darkcurry described it, sounds like the movie is part RomCom. Even RomComs usually don't have chubby dudes as the male lead.

What??!! Don Cheadle was already a proven male lead in Hollywood films by the time he did "House of Lies". How is comparable to Sam Richardson?

 

They do this all the time with white guys that don't have "leading man" looks. Jack Black, Seth Rogen, Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Seth Rogen, Seth Rogen.

Plus dude is funny and has handled his own. Let the brotha shine. lol.

Michael B. Jordan, Mahershala li, Idris Elba, Rege Jean-Page are still out there. I don't mind it one bit especially since it's okay with white males.

 

I don't think it's part rom-com. I'm not even sure there's any wwbm romance at all. There's a tiny hint at it in the trailer, so we're just wishfully thinking.

And I don't know if Cheadle was a proven solo lead before 'House of Lies,' but I don't really care. He's the man. And 'House of Lies' is definitely in the running for the GOAT wwbm series.

 

**round of applause** You hit it right on the head. I was thinking of posting that same sentiment.

Also, I think Sam Richardson is an attractive enough dude. He's one Marvel movie workout/diet/HGH/steroids makeover away from being a heartthrob lol

Edit: Here's him with his ex-gf. She obviously thought we was doing okay lol.
You can't tell me he's not at least a step above peak Jonah Hill and Seth Rogen (and I like a lot of their movies lol)

 

On another note his ex is fiiine!! With three i's.

 

I'm talking looks wise.

 

Finally watched the 2005 Wesley Snipes film "7 Seconds" that is advertised on the resources page on this website: https://whitewomenblackmen.com/resources.php





It was definitely an entertaining film. If any of y'all still haven't seen it, go check it out.

 

I seen it. For it's time it was a pretty good action flick. I liked how Kelly and Jack's relationship turned out. They had us with thinking that they were just another flirty IR buddy connection with nothing more beyond that. Didn't see it coming though because the twist with Suza was surprising.

This is what Murder at 1600 with Nina & Regis and Kiss The Girls with Kate & Alex should've been. Along with other countless buddy IR. lol.

 

Yeah, the trailer makes it seems like Kelly is the love interest. But when you watch the film, Snipes' character, Jack, already has a girl, Souza. And a big part of the plot of the film is Jack risking his life trying to rescue her. So depsite Jack & Kelly flirting thoughout the film (often using sexual innuendos), you write it off as harmless flirting & joking because of Jack being committed to Souza and the dynamic of Kelly being a LEO & Jack being a wanted criminal who committed crimes against her. Jack & Kelly ending up together at the end of the film was a surprising twist, I wasn't expecting that.

 

Spoiler

Just saw this movie, the IR relationship doesn't work out because Milana Vayntrub is the werewolf who kills or manipulates others to kill most of the town and she tries to kill Sam Richardson, but she is killed by an old lady at the end.

 

Is there any kissing or anything?

 

Spoiler

nope, they flirt and they almost kiss but they get interrupted and after that, the killing starts and the romance subplot goes out the window.

 

Well that's a waste, damn shame because Vayntrub is hot.

 

Finally watched "Buffaloed" last night. I can't help but chuckle at the fact they hid the 'ship from the trailer. You'd assume that Zoey Deutch's lead character had no love interest based on the trailer.

Do have list of these type of films?
