These two ummm "films" have me perplexed with my lips extremely pursed. All I can say is: 'Who?' 'What?' and most definitely 'Why?' Also 'Huh?' and "The F**k?"
To wit, first up is Tichina Arnold (Pam in "Martin", aka 'BDB') in a dramatic role that seems to be a race reversal of "Black Snake Moan-The Sketch Drafts". That's the most I can say.
The second one is beyond description. When I saw it on the blog "Long Live The Message" I must have stared at the computer screen for a full minute after it was over.
The "star" of this "movie" is Ryan Leslie, the supposed manager of "singer" Cassie, who is also maybe probably Diddy's fiance. Since Ryan has the head- throbbing vanity to make this butter-fried mess, I am quite sure he is vain enough to Google himself on the daily. So Ryan, listen up-you are made to act like Cassie is meant to sing. Nuff said.

Maybe because it's 1 AM, and I really should be asleep right now, but the Ryan Leslie short wasn't that bad... I've seen a lot worse. It was derivative, corny and cheesy in some parts, and can't be taken too seriously. It's a vanity project, but I wasn't annoyed by it. I just laughed and shrugged it off. I'll watch it again when I wake up 6 hours from now, and if I feel differently, I'll backtrack :o)
Is that the one where he plays a dude who gets recruited to be a spy? If so, I saw it over @ Soulbounce and I ain't lookin' @ it again.
Um, the Lena Baker Story...alrighty then. The trailer was pretty bad. Considering what her stor is about, it could have been a tad more informative. As far as Ryan Leslie's acting. No, all of the acting. WTF?
Read the book about Lena Baker. This film...don't know...probably not...gonnn...watch...
TAO: I do honestly believe that was sleep deprivation talking--so I'll let it slide! lol
@danielle: yes, that was the "movie" and yes, I agree with you for not putting yourself thru the torture again...
hey soopa starr: welcome-like your blog. I think the Lena Baker story looks like it could have used a bigger budget--that may be the problem. As for Ryan--NEXT!
@ Madame Z: what is the name of that book? Is it the Lena Baker Story?

ummm... this is why there was a writers' strike. just to help movie makers remember that good writing (not big budgets) makes a film.
