    Denzel in Glory

    Best performance by a black actor ever, Denzel gives me goosebumps ever time I watch that movie

    I don't like any actors. Just roles that they play. Will smith was great in some of my favorite movies. He was also shit In Some bad movies.
    Billy D. Might have been my favorite in star wars but couldn't name another movie he was in.
    Sam Jackson probly was in the most movies I liked with black actors.

    That's an interesting comment Pen.

    Using Eddie Murphy as one of my favorite actors, and the movie 48 hours where he is cemented into my brain as playing the role of Reggie Hammond, I'm trying to imagine who would play the part if it wasn't for Eddie Murphy at 20 years old?
    Hummm. At 21 years old, Damon Wayans probably just as funny and talented as Eddie.

    Maybe your right on this, the topic should have been re-thought and posted as Favorite Black Characters in Movies Month.

    But then again.... it was the actor who made the part great....

    Thanks pen! You just fucked with my head for the rest of the day!

    Here's something I failed to realize many years ago. Rick James was in this movie.

    I think Taraji is often overlooked and underrated. She's one of those actors who totally disappears in to a role she's playing.

    All these years, I've never watched this movie...never. I'm going to see if I can find it on Netflix and finally sit my ass down and watch it. Thanks for posting this, bro.
