ReelBlack isn’t just a TH-cam channel-it’s a virtual museum and cultural archive! Thank you for all you do.
Thanks for that!
Ain't dat da truth let da church say amen
That’s so true
@@lishali08 Amen and AMEN!
Yesss! So many wonderful black movies from back in the day are being erased nowadays. I cherish this channel and a few others that keep it alive!
I think it's safe to say that Ernie Hudson stopped aging in the 90s
First time seeing this. Boy the comedic appeal in this.
Was a good positive movie..is just i thought at some point the parents would tell about adoption or at least for there to be a way to let the audience know whether he knows or not ...but im glad there was a change over part to the movie were most of the people that were negative towards other culture slowly started to change and accept different people is a good thing to see
Dante Basco (Julian) is Filipino
Its Acting
@@HiPHOPx87 who said it wasn’t?
I just stated a fact for the ones that didn’t know
That's Bo Jackson as the pastor! 😂👍
The black woman in this film and I mean ALL 👸🏾👸🏾👸🏾😍🫦
you serious?
R.I.P John Witherspoon
Bang bang bang
Granddad from The Boondocks 💔😞
This movie was loaded with sitcom all stars.
58 minutes in when the whole neighborhood was practicing Tai Chi was powerful. That's an energy shift for real.
Pam Greer is a queen and Zuko is the King....
Let's cast a clearly Filipino dude and say he's Chinese.
Lol 🤣😆
Fam I was on the same type of time you was on lol 😅
Aye some Filipinos are from china though
@@rick3y0 yeah Filipinos born in China but they are different
Welp, I couldn’t tell the difference at all honestly, they all look alike to me 😂😂 he just looks like a Chinese man with a tan to me
He bionically passed the weed
I'm dead😂😂😂😂😂
One of my favorite movies from the 90s-so funny! Thanks for reposting, Reelblack!
No problem!
We watched this movie so many times as a kid in the 90s 😂
90s movies were so good
You got that right and I'm just a young young generation z I ❤️ the 90s culture I never get tired of watching 90s movies I can watch them all day from fakin da funk boyz n the hood to set it off waiting to exhale Menace to society clueless the best man living large and so many more
@@Daydreams-hu2fsyes same i wish i was born in the 90s the music the movies the style seemed so much fun and better than todays music and stuff
@@Daydreams-hu2fsI wish my 31 year old daughter thought that way!
This movie was funny as hell! Perfect balance a comedy, drama, & hood shit lol
This movie was filmed in 3 weeks. I guess they were on a tight budget. Only know because I did some research and Dante was 20 almost 21 in this movie but looked roughly 16/17.
Black may not crack,but Asian don't raisin.
When roofio left never land
People don't understand how funny pop's witherspoon was 🙏🏽 its not many not even the elite comedians that was as funny as he was love all his movies can't say he was not funny or played a bad role in a movie always kept me 😂😂 even watching this after years I busted out 😂😂

I USED TO LOVE THIS MOVIE & I know Primm would tear it to shreds 🤣 paperchinAHboi🤦🏾♀️

I haven't seen this movie in forever!!! I thought the Filipino guy was so cute! Then I end up marrying a man that's part Filipino. Lol!!
Via Filipino
@@Culinaryboy1 thanks!! I knew I said it wrong lol
Glad I found a movie to watch this movie..I was six in '97,so this my first time seeing this movie ..Anything with Pam Grier is a classic
Shoutout to the Cuh Tone Loc
Tone Loc was in so much 90s stuff it’s crazy.
I’m surprised you didn’t come across this growing up they use to play the reruns years later.
@@nlee4566surf ninjas blank check poetic Justice bee bee kids🔥
me too first time in my life watching this i laughed my ass off it was great movie
I was 9
Love this movie. USA used to run this all the time lol
Yup I remember watching it on the USA network back in the late 90's 💯
Facts especially on Saturday 😂
hell yea, those was the times.. we need a time machine asap!!!
2000 baby and I remember my me and mom having and watching this on VHS lol
Thank you! I've been trying to find this movie. I have always liked the message around race, culture, and identity in this movie.
Holy shit!! They used to play this on USA back in the 90s so much!!!
USA had a sick ass rotation for random movies ever. Too bad it's all cop shows these days.
I remember spending one Saturday glued to it cuz they showed "Friday" at 8am, "The Breaks" at 11am, "Trippin" at 1pm, "Players Club" at 3pm, this movie at 6pm and "they premiered "Next Friday" at 8pm.
Had to record it on a vhs lol.
If you were a teen in 2000, USA was a problem. Love this upload!
I can’t believe I never seen this movie before
How did u come across it
6:25 he sounds like tommy pickles 😂
right🤣🤣🤣 like a down ass tommy pickles
I agree.
The original MR RASPY voice But Jadakiss owns it now lol #ToneLoc ❤💐
It would be so refreshing to hear some of his stories working with Robin Harris, Tupac, John Witherspoon, Nell Carter, Louie Anderson, George Wallace & Ricky Harris💐💐💐😇😇😇❤🎬 R.I.P🕊🌈
BO JACKSON IN A MOVIE??? MUST HAVE BEEN 1 OF THOSE STRAIGHT TO VHS MOVIES BECAUSE I AIN'T EVER HEARD OF THIS MOVIE.
A 90s gem with an All star cast pam grier Ernie Hudson Dante basco Nell Carter Tatyana Ali tichina Arnold Johnny Witherspoon Duane Martin Margaret Cho Reynoldo Rey
I remember this movie ❤❤❤❤ it’s interesting to look back and see how young everyone looked
Three years later from this release Dante B. who played the character Julian Lee was the lead in the film the "Debut" using the same stereotypes for a phillpino version film. There was a basketball showdown in that film,, they used the keep it real blackness theme without black characters.
Damn.
Dante will forever be Rufio
Thanks for sharing the movie-it was fun and funny! 😊
Always loved black film, movies, music & overall entertainment but I hated how Hollywood always misused & misrepresented Filipino actors. They could have at least used him as a Cambodian or Hawaiian, lol. That would've be slightly more accurate. Filipinos ain't nothing like Chinese people except for their love for Rice 🍚 & Soy Sauce. Hollywood never gave Ernie Reyes Jr. (TMNT 2 & Surf Ninjaz) a fair chance either, along with Dante Basco & his brother Dion. They never actually played Filipino roles, which is sad. Lou Diamond Philips (LaBamba), Rob Schneider (actor/comedian), Dave Bautista (former WWE wrestler) & Nicole Scherzinger (Pussycat Dolls) are also part Filipino as well. With the exception of comedian Jo Koy, most Filipinos in Hollywood never seem to catch a break without quote "selling out" their heritage. I hope Jo Koy changes that. Can't think of any other celebrity in Hollywood who can comfortably & confidently claim their Filipino heritage. 🤔 I think our demographic & representation is just too small. Miniscule population percentage in the US.
I never seen this movie and missed many 90's movies Because i was too busy chasing a dream.
Moral: Once ya go blax, ya don't go back!..
YOOOOO just unlocked a childhood memory. I loved this movie!💙
Classic movie
This 1997 Classic South Central LA Comedy Movie 🎥 Call Fakin The Funk is a Funny Hilarious Dope Movie I Enjoy Watching This Film 🎥.

They got Bo Jackson preaching 😂
My mf movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man this is an amazing movie. I wish we lived in a world like this. I just watched "The Wanderers" a white movie from the 70s and was thoroughly unimpressed and quiet disturbed by the innuendo and amount of comments supporting it whilst a movie like this goes unnoticed.
I absolutely loved this movie❤!!! Such an amazing display for love between the human species regardless of skin color ❤❤
Tone Loc was G Checking them boy in front of their crib
Pam Grier a fox
She big fine😘
I love that women. I wish I lived I the 70s and had access to her 😅

My wife and I wanted to see this for years and could never find anywhere.
Makes you think of adopted children who lose their identity for the worse...and YES it does matter...thinking it doesn't can harm/kill a culture
Where Zuko and Iroh REALLY moved to after banishment
