Okay I probably going to bitch next year, but this how I feel about the society of magical negroes https://youtu.be/GvM4_U9MvPk?si=IcP7aWm2nAFA5G89
Black content creators, we was doing so well, we help on the FUCKING APOLLO LUNAR MISSIONS, we created so many inventions during periods of oppression and discrimination, many civil rights activists survived to see a fucking black President into office.
But no, we (though Obama did start it) have to burn down the bridges our forebears made towards race relations because you need to justify your racist hateboner towards white peoples even in a setting where black people have magic
Also…writers do know that there regional black cultures? Like southern blacks would probably be into the voodoo stuff, hmmm black urban magic user might blend eastern magic given our urban history with Asians….
I’m thinking more than the writers who made more money by writing this movie script alone than I do in a year am I?

But no, we (though Obama did start it) have to burn down the bridges our forebears made towards race relations because you need to justify your racist hateboner towards white peoples even in a setting where black people have magic
This here is one of the big reasons why I continually say that we're going backwards from the peak of the late 90's in terms of racial issues/relations and a lot of that has to do with the media being produced and consumed.
Social media is another massive issue because honestly how fast can we see a lie that people want to believe spread once twitter gets its hands on it, and then you get the people that regardless of what the facts are refuse to shift because of a matter of pride.
Honestly though the different media that was on back there. Had stuff like Fresh Prince, Martin, In Living Colour (Waynes family owned comedy in the early/mid 90's) all kinds of non white led shows on the tv that didn't play hard into stereotypes but still managed to showcase what some of the different issues faced by the various other racial and ethnic groups without it feeling forced.
Carlton being the "wrong" kind of black man for the fraternity, that's not something a white writer could really do terribly well, but it's one of the things that seems to come up a lot irl and it's nice to put it out there for folks that may not be up on that being a thing.
Spike Lee, he ruled the 90's too, Do the Right Thing, X, even White Men Can't Jump great films showcasing the reality of life in those communities without resorting to tired stereotypes, even White Men Can't Jump since that's just kinda how the whole thing ended up till then it was solid drama even after it was still solid.
And if you wanted quality satire the previously mentioned Waynes's came in with "Don't be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood" can't recall who did CB4, but that was good too.
Now we get

Which is incredibly weird to me considering I know who Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Big Mama Thornton are.

We really erasing Black Women's accomplishments in an effort to stick it to Whitey? How about Black Men, Chuck Berry ring a bell to anyone?
How about Current year. Please I'm begging you

Tell the Death Metal Cowboys of Botswana that they're playing white people music.
No race owns any kind of music for starters, tack in suppressing loads of talent because folks just gotta keep holding their community back for some reason.
I run into the same issue with Chris Rock's whole 'he's a dentist' bit about his neighborhood, ya it's a joke but telling your predominantly black audience that you need to be Denzel Washington to be able to reach the same heights as a run of the mill white dentist, gotta be discouraging.
Then we get the "Magical Negro's" movie, which ya it's supposed to be comedy, could do without being so ham-fisted.
Sent the trailer you shot me a few days back to a friend of mine, his response was less wordy than mine but we both landed on the same conclusion.
"So basically it's Undercover Brother but not funny"
How about we bring Sinbad out of retirement and fix that whole "Shazam" issue once and for all he can do the race stuff without being a massive ass about it, and I'd love to see him working some more, maybe we get a "Good Burger" sequel.
Not that David Allen Grier isn't funny, but damn that movie just looks awful.

New Film Submissions
Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996) dir. Paris Barclay
Innocent young black man Ashtray (Shawn Wayans) is forced to move into a tough Los Angeles slum with his family, including his oddly streetwise, pot-smoking grandma (Helen Martin). Before long, Ashtray's nuclear-armed gangster cousin Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) introduces him to a bizarrely comic crime underworld. Luckily, Ashtray falls for urban poet Dashiki (Tracey Cherelle Jones), and she convinces him to go straight -- but he must deal with her manic ex-boyfriend Toothpick (Darrel Heath). A Low Down Dirty Shame (1994) dir. Keenan Ivory Wayans
After hitting a wall in his case against drug kingpin Ernesto Mendoza (Andrew Divoff), private eye Andre Shame (Keenen Ivory Wayans) quits the police department in disgrace. The wisecracking investigator thinks he's left his old life behind him, but now everything changes when an old chum from the force informs him of a break in the case. With the help of his motor-mouthed secretary, Peaches (Jada Pinkett), Andre leaps back into the action to solve the case and clear his name.

The Gun in Jack's Pants
Jack Robinson. The man who always does the right thing, the noble thing. Well, almost always. Because he carries his gun in his waistband. The FRONT part. Jack, sweetie, NO. You can't do that. Think about poor Miss Fisher if you accidentally shoot yourself in your... you know... DOWN THERE. Besides, City South does own at least one gun holster. We've all seen it hanging from a hook at the police station.
Fun facts (which lead to the conclusion below):
1. In Australia, gun holsters were available to police officers since around 1921.
2. Ever since the 1870s, the Victoria police officers were supposed to carry a gun, although it was supposed to stay hidden. That's why it sometimes appears that Jack pulls his gun out of nowhere (well, out of his trousers, actually). Sometimes, though, he seems to forget the rule and we get to see it in his waistband which, if you ask me, is not a very healthy habit.
3. Jack Robinson was a very high ranked police officer of the Royal Victoria Police, meaning that above him were only 3 more ranks: Superintendent, Deputy Commissioner and Chief Commissioner. He was also a detective, which meant that he was the head of what is now the equivalent of the Major Crimes Unit in the U.S.
4. City South covered the entire Southern region of the state of Victoria, not only Melbourne.
Having these in mind, give the man a holster, for crying out loud! He's too important to risk him accidentally shooting himself.
Anyway, the only reason I could think of why Jack Robinson doesn't wear a holster is because he's an ADRENALINE JUNKIE. He really likes living on the edge. Just look at him. He doesn't even blink when he's shooting.
Music and clip bits in this video:
1. Hollywoodrocc - Gun in my pants

5. SpongeBob SquarePants time card number 76

Don't Be a Menace to Afrokatt
My re-enactment of a scene from the Wayans Brothers movie "Don't Be a Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood", but with my OC Afrokatt instead.
(FUN FACT: I based Afrokatt off of both Ashtray and Loc Dog from that movie. He's basically a combination between the two in terms of personality and traits)
