I hope most of these are on DVD. I'd love to purchase them.

I really liked Center Stage. The lead guy, the teacher is so good. I had to find out more about him after watching that movie.
A couple of favorites, Office Space and Best in Show

Best in Show was hilarious!!! I watch it every time that it comes on HBO. It was so stupid but that movie was really funny. Especially the song in the end, "Bow Wow!"

"Flops" I liked....
Rosewood (which didn't do so good b/c it was competing against Booty Call  ), Booty Call, Belly, Def Jam's How to Be a Player, The Associate (the Whoopi Goldberg movie when she pretended to be a White man), Desperately Seeking Susan, BAPS was alright (I've always seemed to catch the end of the movie for some reason), Cadence (wasn't this the movie w/ Charlie Sheen in a military jail of sorts, and Larry Fishburne was in it?), Get on the Bus (it got rave reviews, but not many Black people went to see it; I saw it TWICE!!!).
That's all I could think of for now. If I think of any more, I'll post them!!!

Get on the Bus was great!
I thought it was one of his best efforts, and it's my fav Spike Lee movie. Also, my man Isaiah Washington is in that movie (he's manly even when he is playing a gay character).
<best in show> "God, loves a terrier" had me cracking up. but the all time favorite line. "We enjoy the same things, sunsets, snow peas... We can spend all day talking or not talking"

Poetic Justice.
I thought Janet Jackson's portrayal of a "home girl" was a tour de force. For someone who grew up under Poppa Joe's thumb, and who lived a very sheltered life, she played the hell out of the gum-smaking Justice. And Regina King is just a really good actress, she makes just about anything she's in better.
Low Down Dirty Shame.
I don't know, I just liked this movie.
Fools Rush In.
Again, I don't know, I just like the movie.
The Wood
Omar Epps, need I say more?

2D, I know you didn't say Crooklyn! I thought that I was the ONLY person in the world that liked that movie! I brought my copy for my students to watch and they really enjoyed it. It's a classic.
