OT- Black Dynamite, is it wrong for wanting to see this movie???

Philly is on the list of cities showing this film...lucky.

Because it is "blaxploitation."   I happen to love these movies.  But people can get offended by the material.

So what do we call Joe Dirt or Larry the Cable Guy?

X3, have you seen Baaadaasss?  It's the movie about the making of the first blaxploitation movie, Sweet Sweetback's Badass Song.   I've never seen the original but still enjoyed the later movie.

I enjoyed the blaxploitation spoof "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" back in the early 90's.   I think this one looks pretty good too.  Actually the cinematography in Black Dynamite looks more like the real movies so it has an edge there.   

Have you guys seen that movie with Damon Waynes where he is a TV producer and puts on this horribly racist TV show that everybody buys into and wears "black face" in the live studio audience?  It's very over the top, not quite "I'm gonna get you sucka" but it's close.  I only caught a few moments of it between pre-season basketball but it was kinda funny in a very odd way.

Bamboozled one of the lesser known spike lee works.
