  1. I agree....It wasn't as raw as I was expecting it to be, but it was very good nonetheless. And I'm on the fence on whether it's OSCAR WORTHY or not. I think certain performances were, but I don't know about the film in its entirety. I left the theater feeling slightly without closure. I know Tyler was trying to remain true to Ntozake Shange's work, but IDK. The film did what it was meant to do. Whoopi was a mess to me though. S.N. Now I see why they kept showing that same clip of Janet and her husband over and over again......
  2. Janet was very natural and effortless in this movie. Loretta didn't steal any shine.
  3. It was in the subtitle......it's not my fault you didnt read it
  4. And i wonder why they cut out the graduation scene?
  5. THIS PARAGRAPH CONTAINS A SPOIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLERRRRRRR!!!!!!!! The movie was wonderful. Kimberly Elise and Janet gave the best performances. I wish Janet was given more screen time, but I know it wasn't all about her. Janet didn't need a big WDIGMT scene to show RAW emotion. Janet acted so effortlessly. I loved how she told her husband he gave her HIV and left. The emotion flowed naturally. Kimberly Elise was excellent. "Enuf" said. Phylicia Rashaad did her thing. Thandie was kind of funny being all "ghetto" and trashy. Kerry Washington didn't do much for me. Everybody else was good, except Whoopi. I thought Whoopi looked and sounded a fool a lot of times. I don't know if it's her character or the way she played it. I think it's both. I kind of wish we got to dive into the characters more....I feel like we only got to the surface of some of the characters. The poetry didn't always flow nicely. Janet, Phylicia, Kimberly, and others were good at not making it sound like poetry, but Loretta completely recited some of hers like a poem. I liked the ending and understood it, but I don't think everyone will understand or like the way it ended. BUT ALL IN ALL I THOUGHT IT WAS VERY POWERFUL.
  6. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Please. Willow simply "whipped her hair" and snatched, dragged, flushed, and buried your off-key singing faves Ronald McDonald wig.
  7. If Rihanna can last through 5 albums, then I think Willow can make it Just think how good she will be when she's fifteen or even 20.... she will be out of control.
  8. If she keeps coming with the hits she wont be. Willow is here to stay.
  9. http://www.billboard.com/#/charts/hot-100?begin=11&order=position AND just to reiterate......the 10 year old's debut performance on Ellen shitted on any Rihanna performance in all of her five year career. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q97ilVo1T4&feature=youtube_gdata B) B) B) B) B) B) B) That Willowsus reign wont let up.
