    Think Like A Man

    "Think Like A Man," the new adaptation of Steve Harvey's best-selling book, earned a muscular $9 million at the box office on Friday, reports THR. That puts the little-discussed film on track to knock "The Hunger Games" out of the top position when final numbers are tabulated on Monday.

    Update:: Finke's estimates were dead-on: "Think Like a Man" earned $12.2 million on Friday, which could push it over $30 million for the weekend.

    Well, if you are a film maker and you are targeting the Black community, it only makes sense to make movies catering to Black women because they are the ones with jobs, disposable income, and the head of most households. Who do you think made Tyler Perry rich?

    Notice how limited 'black' films are?

    Movies that cater to black women are this Tyler Perry type shit.
    When Hollywood made movies that catered to black men, it was Juice, New Jack City and Boyz in 'da hood.

    White people get super heroes, people climbing mountains.... traveling and shit...

    Rottentomatoes is a great website to get a good idea if the film is bad or not.

    RT features LEGIT criticism from good movie critics. I go there all the time to get a read on films(on whether I will see them or not)

    Please give me an example where RT is wrong with their rating.

    Any website that contains user generated input on anything media based will always be about one's personal opinion. Aggregated scores really just means that the majority may enjoy it, but it doesn't make it a great movie objectively. Plus, there were movies, which I'm sure of that conflicted with other websites and other movie critics (aka us).
