Nate Parker Is Fine As Hell!
I will be going to see that movie
Everyone looks great, I am glad we do have some positve movies coming out. December must be the month in Black Hollywood
I love Jurnee’s look. Been a fan of her’s since Full House
I wonder what the rest of her family is up to?
Do you guys remember that show her family did a while back? That was the show. I think they play it on TV ONE now……
WOW…Everyone looks BEAUTIFUL!!
Everybody looks great minus Denzel. He’s been looking alot like somebody’s crusty dad the past couple days while out promoting the movie. Come on Denzel, step ya game up! Jurnee has also come a long way from her Full House days haha
Wow Jurnee looks beautiful! Remeber her show On Our Own? It was her and her real life siblings.
AJ looks delicious!!
Denzel please stop with the sneakers!!
Awww Look at Jurnee Smollett All grown up.. “Cecillys got her period” I so still watch EVES BAYOU!!! Denzel look like he just got out of the work release program with that damn shirt.. Everyone else looks nice
Jurnee looks absolutely gorgeous. These kids grow up so fast. I remember her from the TV show “Full House”, then she was in “Eve’s Bayou”.
Nate Parker is handsome young man.
I think its cute that the lil boy’s name is “Denzel Whitaker”. Thats funny.
Lynn Whitfield is that woman. She IS my favorite actor. I just watched her again in “Womens Of Brewsters Place”, man EVERYBODY was in that movie.
Women* of Brewsters Place
Aj is wrong for that plastic shaft coat but crazy ass Brandy my bad I mean Lynn Whittfield is working the gray…u go momma!!! an our black people are holding the GORGEOUS down I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I second that # 2 Nate Parker is fine as hell. Although he kinda resembles RICH BOY a little bit!
LOL!! Didn’t see #2 had already mentioned the show!
*remember
i love jurnee smollett! i did not realize that was her!
AJ…. that jacket…. HATED IT!!!
Nate Parker is ummm ummm good! How old is that boy b4 I catch a case?
Jurnee is gorgeous. She is killing those so called gorgeous actresses like Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, Jessica Biel – Jurnee is the real deal!
So who is Nate Parker, a new actor?
Jurnee has grown into such a beautiful young woman, I am looking forward to this movie. I remember her and Taj Mowry on Full House..hey they would make a cute couple! lol!
Nate Parker is a cutie-pie!
Yeah, ya’ll are right, AJ does look a lil’ “Shaft’ish” in that coat, but it’s a hell of a lot better than the “Predator” look he used to rock back on 106….LOL!
@ 7 i didnt anyone else noticed that about Denzel Whitaker! lmao. how ironic!!
everyone looks nice..
p.s. Lynn Whitfield looks good! she’s so good w/ evil roles man…
I remember Jurnee!! and her smile is the same! and Nate Parker= :]
Denzel Whitaker LMAO. Thats the only reason his ass got a part in the movie. JK he can probably act or something. But yeah Jurnee is looking kinda sexy shes about my age too, might have to holla. Ima see the movie though it should be good.
Jurnee is stunning. Isn’t that the little girl that was in Eve’s Bayou, or am I just crazy? If that’s her, she’s grown up to be a beautiful young lady.
Lynn is looking oh so Chic…Love it!!
AJ, What in the world do you have on, lmao.
Denzel…you’re just too damn Sexy, what else can I say.
JURNEE DEN GREW UP AND GREW OUT, WHAT A LOVELY YOUNG LADY! I AM SO THERE ON CHRISTMAS, XTRA BUTTERED POPCORN, HOT TAMALES, AND A BIG OL SPRITE! I HOPE THIS MOVIE IS APPROPRIATE FOR LIL CHILDREN TOO!
Whoever said Denzel looks like he just got out of the work release program, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I can’t even find the comment…I chocked on my coffee when I read that! It made me gag, for real!!!! HAHAHAHAH And, it’s sooooo true.
As for Jurnee I’m REALLY GLAD TO SEE HER I really have faith she’ll be another serious, respectable black actress…unlike Gabrielle Union, Tamala Jones, the girl from the “Scary Movie” franchise, Meagan Good, Lisa Ray etc…
@DDS, OMG I JUST LOVED “SEAL” IN WOMEN OF BREWSTER’S PLACE, MAN OPRAH BE APART OF SOME GOOD MOVIES, YAY! LYNN EXEMPLIFIES PURE GRACE TO ME!
Nate Parker…”fine”? Are yall serious?? Oh, well, to each her own….
Yeah, Denzel Washington (not Witaker…lol) is dressed down but I think he’s at a point in his career and in his life where he can wear whatever that fukk he want to…Hell, he Denzel. He been on every “Most Handsome / Well Dressed” list in America. He don’t need to prove nothing else…
Loving Lynn and the grey…!
I saw Nate Parker on E and he was crying about how proud his mother is.
I am very excited to see this movie! Im happy that we are getting some good positive black movies out instead of the same ol typical “stereotype shit” Anyhow Jurnee looks really pretty. I loved her in Eve’s Bayou! She played the hell out of that part.
I have a friend who went to premiere in Florida she says very age appropriate and I am taking my nieces and nephews.
I purchased a book at barnes and nobles about Mr. Tolson and my nephew is reading it. I think all African American young people should see it because it would be a good catalyst to help them to see the see the importance of an educationa and how hard people worked to achieve that right for us.
@ #15, NATE PARKER WAS IN THE MOVIE PRIDE, HE PLAYED KIMBERLEY ELISE’ BROTHER. HIS SISTER WAS OUR FAVORITE ACTRESS FROM DIARY OF A MAD BLACK WOMAN AND SET IT OFF.
JURNEE SURE DID GROW UP TO BE A FINE YOUNG WOMAN. SHE LOOKS ABSOLUTELY GREAT. I’M PROUD OF HER. I’M QUITE SURE HER OTHER SIBLINGS ARE DOING GREAT AS WELL.
WE ALL NEED TO GO OUT AND SUPPORT THIS MOVIE. WE AS AFRICAN AMERICANS SURE HAVE COME A LONG WAY….
Everyone looks so nice. Jurnee Smollet has come a long way. Eve’s Bayou is like one of my favorite movies. And wasn’t she just in Roll Bounce??? Ya’ll think maybe Denzel’s going through a midlife crisis? He has been looking a bit out of sorts lately…lol!
If you have read or heard any of his interviews recantly he is about one thing helping the sother actors to look good.
He still has tree more projects pending (acting roles), so Hollywood must not be too impressed with clothes like you are, its his talent that impresses them and gets him millions per movie.
All this clothing shit you all focus on as young people is so superficial and when you are not a people pleaser and hungry for the spotlight you wear whatever and you all who are shallow will have to deal with it.
I like Denzels style at least he is real.
I’m not going to see this shit, why should I because they’re Black, I don’t give a fuck, they don’t do shit for me so why should I line their pockets? You all kill me with this you should see this movie because its a Black movie, why??? I mean really, wtf for, so they can take the money and act like an ass (not even acknowledge us) when they see us on the street GTFOH. I have better things to spend my money on, you know like sex toys or some shit like that.
jurnee smolett grew up to be so beautiful!
can’t wait to see this movie.
I can’t wait untill this movie comes out it looks like it’s going to be really good. Everyone looks nice at the premiere and I’m glad the movie got a Golden Globe nomination for best picture.
#31 WTF is your problem….some one needs a Xanex quick
Anywho……I am really going to need AJ to NOT WEAR that trench coat anymore…it is not a good look boo.. I loved Jurnee in Eve’s Bayou…if only Megan Goode would have followed in her footsteps..
Jurnee also played in Grid Iron Gang.
LOL @ Candi —- Larenz Tate was also in Women of Brewsters.
I just kept saying, how old are they? Oprah, Mike Tyson, Robin Givens, Lynn Whitfield, Larenz……all of them.
It looked like Oprah couldn’t let go of her Miss Sophia role/costume and make up in that movie. I was like damn couldn’t you at least let them wipe the make-up from under your eyes, Oprah….damn.
#31 Asbury, you crazy as hell………….LOL
Asbury? more like you are an ASS-bury? hope you ckoke on your rubber dick.
LOL @ #4 saying Denzel looks like somebody’s crusty dad. That was hiliarious. I think Denzel might be going through a midlife crises or soemthing because he has bee looking less then stellar the past few premiers.
I can’t get over the kids name, Denzel Whitaker. I think they hired him for the movie because of his name, lol.
*choke and die
Hmm. CL posting Movie news WHAT they usually only talk about music and singers.
Anyway Hairspray a movie about RACIAL issues was not even discussed, but the stupid Tyler Perry movie was.hmm.
Denzel Whitaker was in Training Day as Macy Gray’s Nephew.
@#31, Asbury, you sound like a Bitter Betty. Does any of the other products you purchase/support line your pockets? I don’t think so. I am sure the maker of the tissue you wipe your ass with doesn’t care about you either. . . so what’s your point?! You sound like you were once a fan and got your feelings hurt when you didn’t get the autograph. I am telling your therapist the sessions didn’t work and that he needs to up your meds. . .LMAO
DAMN I am so glad we r getting movies with some depth unlike that DAMN holiday failure with Gaby and Morris. I love it!! Everyone looks wonderful as well!
Jurnee looks really nice. She kinda reminds me of Kerry Washington, I dunno why…
True, true #1…Nate Parker is fine! LOL!
I think Denzel is such a great actor. He’s one of my favs, so I’m definitely looking forward to this movie. Forest Whitaker is a great actor, too. He did a great job in “The Last King of Scotland” by the way…I know this movie will be good.
WOW #31 CALM DOWN A BIT THATS YOU’RE CHOICE ALL DAY BOO.
#41 YOU ARE CORRECT I’M IN TOTAL AGREEMENT WITH YA.
WOULD THIS DENZEL WHITAKER KID BE FOREST WHITAKER’S SON.
I’M GONNA CHECK THIS MOVIE OUT.
I don’t get it, had I come in here and said,”oh wow, I can’t wait to see this movie, I love supporting Blacks”, then it would have been okay???? But since I came in with my OWN opinion I’m an ass lmaooo, you people are a bunch of thoughtless , moronic, imbeciles…..I’m free to think and speak as I please, if you don’t like it then read on to the next. Who the fuck are any of you to tell me what I should and shouldn’t see, or how I should or shouldn’t feel.
#41 Since when did you become my stock broker??? If I don’t want to see a movie I don’t have to, and no I’ve NEVER asked anyone for an autograph before I unlike some of you lame asses that are on here everyday have a life.
bye bitches.
JURNEE SMOLLETT SURE DID TURN OUT WAYYY BETTER THAN MEGAN GOOD… I LOVE HER NAME!!!! SHE WILL GO VERY FAR IN THIS BUSINESS..
Jurnee is so grown now..
Lynn whitfield is so classy and gorgeous….bad lil mama..
LMAO @Asbury
She’s entitled to feel that way though
lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m starting to think Denzel dresses down because his wife is constantly looking a hot ass mess so he doesn’t want her to look a mess alone!
I guess Denzel tired of working out..guess he says he’s getting older so fuck it.
Everybody looks nice execpt for Denzel and I can’t wait to see this movie.
Asbury, did any of these people do anything to you?
#23 and # 35 you guys are right The Women Of Brewster’s Place was a good movie.
Eve’s bayou was good a movie too.
Nate Parker is a nice looking young man and I love his smile!
I will be in the house to see this Christmas Day!!!
Mmmm…I may have to put that Nate Parker on my watch list! Alright, now!!!
And Denzel, is Denzel!! Nobody better!!!
Jurness has come a long way since Eve’s Bayou. I like the way she grown. I
Getting straight jacket for Asbury, LMAO.
Asbury a/k/a Bitter Betty. . .you are not obligated to see the movie and if you chose not to see it, that’s fine too . . .frankly I don’t plan to see the movie either. You are HOWEVER entitled to your opinion . .BUT you’re ranting pockets being lined, people taking money an acting an ass and being ignored on the street, lol. . .sounded more like a tirate . . .LMAO. As your stockbroker, I’d advise you to swallow your meds and dust off that straight jacket and put it on.
A-Jay is way gay
@ #50 JSCENE LMAO!!!! THAT’S PORBABLY WHAT IT IS!!!
