Perry attempts to finally be taken seriously as a director and visionary in his new film “For Colored Girls” which is based on the 1975 Choreopoem/play “For Colored Girls Who Have considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf” by Ntozake Shange. I, believe it or not, was very excited to see this movie being that it appeared to be a staunch departure from Perry’s previous work. I didn’t read any reviews or editorials because I wanted to be able to make the most honest judgment I could. Put simply my optimism was in vain, because what I saw was disgusting, and failed to promote the image of African Americans, rather it reinforced stigmas and did little to empower women.<br />Let’s get the good out of the way first. This movie was saved by the performances of the ensemble cast. Thandie Newton was my absolute favorite. Everyone raved on Kimberly Elise’s performance, which was amazing, however I’m always excited to see an actor perform outside of their norm. Her Character was basically the town slut, and oh did she play it well. She was bold and unapologetic when it came to her very friendly sex life. I feel like she was only character that was actually empowering, even with her eventual realization that she as a woman should not sleep around because its more suited for men…sigh. Also I didn’t have a problem with the characters randomly spitting out random outbursts of poetry. Even though the wording of the poems was somewhat dated in the present day setting of the movie, it still was a unique approach that I never seen done before, and that I can appreciate. I will also give Perry credit for using a good range of pigmentation in the movie.<br />Unfortunately with the movies small successes come great fallacies. Firstly this film shows that Perry is a absolutely terrible director. He has no idea about subtlety and nuance. His obvious messages are pushed into the audience’s faces as if we cannot connect the dots without someone holding the pencil for us. The scene where the girl goes to get an abortion was cringe worthy at the least. Let’s be serious this movie is set in present day New York and you’re telling me that this girl has to dodge crack heads, pit bulls, and gamblers only to get a botched abortion from some destitute woman. We get it Tyler…you’re anti-choice, but using scare tactics in order to get your message across is exhausting and further discredits you as a legitimate film maker (not that u care since you hardly open your films to critics before the release dates.) It is evident that it is more important to Perry to pander to his core church audience, rather than to take a leap of faith and create a true artistic work that would compliment or even elevate the original work.<br />Through most of the movie I was irritated because in one scene it would take 2 steps forward, then in the next one trillion steps backwards, but towards the end I felt intense anger and sadness. First was the scene with the Babies falling out of the window. This is the moment that I felt the movie had completely gone to shit. Yet another example of Perry not giving the audience enough credit, and resorting to ultra melodramatic climaxes that drain the viewer. This scene was completely unnecessary and honestly unrealistic. I’m sorry I know this could happen but it is THE WORST CASE SCENARIO. Next up is the oh so tired “Down low” storyline scattered throughout the movie. Watching Janet predictably find out that her husband was secretly sleeping with men and ultimately infecting her with HIV was a tragedy to view. You could hear the women in the audience gasp and moan when the HIV was revealed. In that moment I felt like irreversible damage had been done to black gay men everywhere. The homophobic undertones were agonizing, and I felt absolutely helpless in a sea of angry black women ready to burn any gay man they saw at the stake. The problem is that their ignorance has been legitimized because the idea that bisexual men are the cause for the explosion of HIV in black women is on the big screen all across America. There is no message telling these women that there is no verifiable link with bisexual men creating the HIV epidemic among African American women. How can we…better yet how can I watch something like this and come out of theater exclaiming, “wow that was his best film yet!”, when I have been effectively demonized and drummed to a HIV vessel ready to pounce on the first unsuspecting woman I encounter.<br />Now comes the important question I’m sure you are thinking. Will I spend money in the future on a Tyler Perry movie? I want to say no, but the truth is I probably will since he is the only voice we have for now, yet saying that discredits this whole post right?Turn me up a lilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17525832363294070549noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566233464559858573.post-77357776895002053512010-04-27T21:44:00.000-07:002010-04-27T21:53:54.659-07:00Light Gray Eyes, Hour Glass Frame<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/HBFrbfoEgGg&hl=en_US&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/HBFrbfoEgGg&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object><br /><br />Sorry,some of the vid is cut off...However this is beyond hilarious.

I was definitely drained near death by Monday morning.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>Friday</strong>: I stayed late at work then went to the barbershop. Then I moved from 10 at night till 6 am the next day. Some dude came over with another friend that was extra muscular so made him move the big stuff I was too lazy to pick up. I may let him take me on a couple of dates....</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>Saturday</strong>: I was completely in zombie mode at work. I came home and went to sleep, woke up to eat and then back to bed. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>Sunday</strong>: Work sucked, but I was lookin' forward for some poolside fun. The pool party in Buckhead was exactly what I needed. The Italian was there and I chilled with him for a while then bumped around socializing with a hint of flirtation in my eyes. Sebastian found out we were on "the list" for club Eros (whatever that means because we still paid 5 dollars). It was an ok crowd but I needed a little more. Total sidebar: I have this dude that is like my eternal flirt buddy. Every time we see each other we dance, flirt, chop it up, and exchange seductive glances, but since we kinda run in the same circles we've kind of stayed away from taking it further. I'm kind of tired of it now because he needs to be my husband!!! anywho the start of my summer in ATL was very promising. I kind of feel a random post coming on so be on the look out!</div><br /><div>*Song of the moment: Electrik Red- Drank in My Cup*</div><br /><div></div>Turn me up a lilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17525832363294070549noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566233464559858573.post-15317976811168179422009-06-04T18:43:00.000-07:002009-06-05T07:12:08.835-07:00TransitionToday Sebastian and I will be moving into a new apartment. We're still in the same complex but we're upgrading to an APT with more space. Although I am excited for this move I do have to admit I'm a little sad to leave my current living space. So many struggles, planning, studying, and more planning has went one in my first apartment. From a field mouse sneaking in and me jumping on the counter screaming "KILL IT KILL IT" with a pot in my hand to Watching the Real Housewives of New York Reunion having the best laughs of the year. I can still remember how I felt the first time I walked in. I felt like I arrived and my life had taken a great turn for the better. As the sunlight broke through the vertical blinds in the living room I somehow knew I had made the right decision. So to my current living space I say Farewell old chap!!! it's been nice and I will forever remember my many intellectual and yes sexual endeavors that I have experienced inside of you.<br /><br />*Song of the Moment: Tamar-New Day*Turn me up a lilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17525832363294070549noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566233464559858573.post-27052418854671482792009-05-27T16:44:00.001-07:002009-06-04T18:41:11.313-07:00I'm sorry!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIinn2Ngt5tHC1GkKWq1ce3bRJhJQptWhqJDtx0op4KNZcMOItXMXE_TyF33nHyyh5a4ZC0rfj7uhTzqjCz9pgcdauHluOaHmaxk7fwyRNyiEB74dNttdEcbYK7gTXHankYo1CiCVbjPM/s1600-h/hiatus.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343645250067728098" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 231px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIinn2Ngt5tHC1GkKWq1ce3bRJhJQptWhqJDtx0op4KNZcMOItXMXE_TyF33nHyyh5a4ZC0rfj7uhTzqjCz9pgcdauHluOaHmaxk7fwyRNyiEB74dNttdEcbYK7gTXHankYo1CiCVbjPM/s320/hiatus.png" border="0" /></a><br /><div>I'm not dead I swear.

Sure it wasn't SAG award worthy but it's just one of those classic black films. While I was watching I couldn't help but to wonder what exactly happenned to black film? I'm not talking about the onslaught of Tyler Perry Madea Tom Foolery that has been the only skewed representation of African American Culture, I mean I'm not hating on Tyler Perry because I can definately appreciate his point of view. I just would like to see a black film without it having a obvious christian subtext EVERY SINGLE TIME. What happenned to movies like Love Jones, Brown Sugar, or Love & Basketball. It was those movies that had those story lines that u could curl up in a thick down comforter with your best friend, by yourself, or that special someone. Those Sensual sex scenes that made you sweat and squirm just enough to look at your phone with thoughts of callin some dude you know that u shouldn't be callin. Those bomb soundtracks that u had to have. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Why have these movies ceased to exist? Bootlegging, Racism in Hollywood, Tyler Perry Monopoly (my personal favorite conspiracy theory)?</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>So what are your favorite films of the 90s/early millenium? Below is a clip of that oh so sexy love scene from Jason's Lyric.....Ahh memories.</div><div> </div><div>*Song of the moment: Accapella (Something is Missing)-Brandy*</div><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><br /><embed pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/193866/jada_pinkett_smith_love_scene.swf" width="400" height="345" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"></embed><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"><a href="http://www.metacafe.com/watch/193866/jada_pinkett_smith_love_scene/">Jada Pinkett Smith Love Scene</a> - <a href="http://www.metacafe.com/">A funny movie is a click away</a></span>Turn me up a lilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17525832363294070549noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566233464559858573.post-62057139067496732642009-01-04T17:59:00.000-08:002009-01-04T19:46:10.882-08:00Reflections 2008 and New directionToday I Attended Church To give thanks to God for taking me through 2008 without much struggle.

I have left this blog on a cliffhanger. No I did not die on the way to Atlanta LOL. I actually made it safely and I have just been getting adjusted for the last month and thus neglected this here blog. so wow where do I start. Hmm.......maybe I should answer some of these looming questions that have been in my previous posts comments section. now I know that there is some sort of stereotypes about dudes moving to atlanta, but I feel it is necessary to mention that I really don't fit the mold of any perceived model or expectation of young males like myself<br /><br />1st question: Turn me up a lil do u have a job? Um yes I have a job...why wouldn't I?<br /><br />2nd question: Oh Turn Me up well you can't be enrolled in school because you obviously moved to Atlanta to fuck and go to all the parties right? No. I am enrolled in school. Why would you think I wasn't I mean I thought I made it clear I was transferring from the beginning.<br /><br />3rd question: Who are you staying with? family and friends? the Street? C'mon now....I've had an apartment reserved down here since July.<br /><br />Moral of the story: Turn me up has and always will be on BUSINESS.<br /><br />Now with that out of the way let's get to the fun part. I have been here for a month and the experiences I have had here already have trumped all the occurrences in Minnesota for like three years. The boys, the parties, my great new apartment, my ghetto ass job, the attention, the drama (mild), the juggling, The prioritizing, the budgeting,never ending sweet tea, the clothes, the boys, the boys, ohhhh the boys LOL. All these things have made for the most defining time in my life so far. I know there are some naysayers out there who think I made a bad decision and I'm just a stereotype, but oh well I did what was right for me and so far everything is good so I have no regrets. I am for the first time in a long time optimistic of the future both socially and professionally. Now that I'm back in the swing of things with the blog I will try not to stay away for long again (How many times have I made this promise). I did have more to write but it's my birthday (the 10th), and this punk ass nigga just walked in here with a gallon of€ Kroger brand sweet tea as my birthday present....I mean how dare you?! I'm kind of burnt up right now so let me stop writing before I explode all over this blog. </div>Turn me up a lilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17525832363294070549noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566233464559858573.post-14908183004007557792008-10-31T09:11:00.001-07:002008-10-31T10:36:42.331-07:00Almost There<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg44E2GSW7O14OWcqayq2Qme5nyTS4dtRLKQe6obpue9exlUzYvbh5JQxuVZMfW13FQUJMfSu9qYDIenMldGcd3AtQuaTu_qQxuEGAoN_he2rZx_92uDSe1IBCkf6oFy25CKxR98Zyq7MM/s1600-h/pic.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263373282813033554" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 233px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg44E2GSW7O14OWcqayq2Qme5nyTS4dtRLKQe6obpue9exlUzYvbh5JQxuVZMfW13FQUJMfSu9qYDIenMldGcd3AtQuaTu_qQxuEGAoN_he2rZx_92uDSe1IBCkf6oFy25CKxR98Zyq7MM/s320/pic.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Very short post today, but I promise I will give a full one this weekend...(or next week, Ya'll know how I do).</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>So I'm in Milwaukee for a couple of days to see my family and meet up with Sebastian so he can trail me down to Georgia. Lord knows I don't feel like driving all these hours. My car is jam packed with a whole bunch of stuff I probably don't need but I'm such a pack rat, and I can only fight it so much. The best part of this whole moving thing so far is that it only cost me 28 dollars to fill up my tank. This is amazing because it used to cost me 70 dollars to fill up my big body caprice....yes 70 dollars! When I filled up my new car I was so confused like what does the screen say? I thought the pump had malfunctioned or somethin. I had to give my life to the lord in that moment for that blessing LOL. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Total sidebar: Why did one of my prior cut buddies ask me one a date? Where did he ask me to go?.....To Burger King. Are you serious? do you think I'm a two dolla ass negro? his response, "Well shit we can go to Pizza hut then." What? Please know that his number was deleted immediately</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Anywho I need to make some cds for they trip but can't think of any good new songs.

I've been <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">talkin</span> to this dude since May that lives in Atlanta. We get along, nothing too serious, however once I get there will it change. I really do like him, but who knows what's ahead of me. He doesn't put any pressure on me either which is very good, or it may be he doesn't want to commit either. Every other dude is not even worth mentioning because they're either 1. Broke 2. ugly (extremely) 3. Broke and ugly. </p><p>So my near future <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">roommate</span> just got word that his sister will not be making the drive south with us, and with my friend flaking out on me too that means that both me and him will be driving down alone in our <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">separate</span> cars <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">BOOOOOO</span>!!!!

I started my new position and my dad also flew in today. So for my first day my supervisor assigned to me the very important task of.......drum roll please..............reading a compliance manual the size of a bell south all in one phone book. I smiled in his face real fake like "I'll definitely read it and take notes". Man as soon as I went to my desk I read one page and layed my lazy ass right inside the book then closed it on my head to block the lights. Twenty minutes later I woke up and read the first section. Feeling accomplished I felt the need to talk to my good buddy ol' pal Merce via text message. Isn't it strange how when you're at work you have the most pointless convos with people just to avoid work. Here's an example of the pointless exchange she and I had in the morning:</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">Merce: My feet hurt Damn it!!!!</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">Me: You better tighten them pussy walls up.</span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#000000;"></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Merce: WTF that got to do with anything.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">Me: I don't know I was caught up in the jet stream.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">Merce: My feet ashy.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">Me: Mine look like koala bear feet.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">Merce: I Just screamed when I read that message. What is wrong with you?</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">Me: I'm 4 real it look like I climb trees and shit. But that's ok though because I'm gonna go home and break out my good knives and wear these feet of mine out!!</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">Merce: Man you sound like that one episode of Martin with Myra's feet.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">Me: You got to go to work on Myra's feet!!!</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#ff0000;"></span><span style="font-size:+0;"><span style="font-size:+0;"><span style="font-size:100%;">After a big ignorant lunch (I had a burrito and she had some Church's):</span></span></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">Merce: Man I'm so sleepy....we don't do nothin we supposed to. Who do we think we are?</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">Me: Man we just Negros in america tryna make ends meet.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">Merce: in a low ass tax bracket.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">Me: But they keep trying to put us in a higher one...that's why I always opt out of all overtime and doing extra for incentives. Just give me my regular 8 to 5 Paycheck......shit all that other stuff don't do nothin but put us in a higher ass tax bracket anyway...shit. Man I'm bout to go to sleep again. call me when you get off.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">So that was basically my first day and if everyday is like this then I'm gonna love this job! </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">Oh before I forget my dad and I went and got some chicken and beer, and watched the Olympics as our first bonding experience in years....It was cool but I feel so country now!!!! </span></div><br /><span style="font-size:100%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;">One more thing!!!!

He and I have an on and off relationship due to him living in North Carolina and not helping my mom when she was taking care of me alone. This year me and him have connected again and he is trying to help me financially and I do appreciate it. So he wanted to come up here to spend some time with me, and then we're gonna drive down to Milwaukee to my cousin's wedding which was really cool. I booked his plane ticket and stuff and was thinking that this would be good seeing my dad and things could really get better between us. As I kept thinking good, positive thoughts something kept itching the back of my brain. I knew I had forgot something, maybe I put his ticket under my name instead of his.......no we have the same name, or maybe I wouldn't be off work when is the plane gets here.....nah I'll have plenty of time. Then it hit me...</span></div><br /><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#ff0000;">I FORGOT HE DIDN'T KNOW I WAS GAY!!</span></div><br /><br /><div><span style="color:#ff0000;"></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Damn it!!!! Now its not like I'm some big flame or somethin, but still I've changed a little I'll admit. My mom has been knowing since I was 17 but she didn't want me to tell my dad until I went off to college, but I just kept putting it off because I didn't want to go through that process again ( The first time around was not pretty..not pretty at all). Also with the exception with one of my cousins noone on my dad's side of the family knows I like dudes, and the only reason my cousin knows is because when I told her last year I was comin down to ATL where she lives labor day weekend she basically knew at the point. She just flat out asked me like "You like boys?". I laughed because she asked it with this ghetto/country twang to her voice. I told her the truth and she was cool and we actually have a great relationship. She told me that I should really tell my dad, and I agreed but I still never did it. So here lies the dillemma do I tell him when he comes or should I wait until a better time? My first instinct is to wait but I think its more of me wanting not to deal with this now. Sigh...........confusion is a bitch. </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;">*Song flowing in my ear- India Arie: Good morning*</span></div></div>Turn me up a lilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17525832363294070549noreply@blogger.com11
