I am in church and when I saw the notification I bolted to the bathroom and now I'm watching this so.....
This might be my favorite comment.
My mom burst in the bathroom and said "HURRY YOUR ASS UP!!!CHURCH IS OVER!!!"
Oh my 😂😂😂 this is amazing
Rochel Jones Yeah I did!I got in trouble by not being able to have my phone for 4 hours
Lol I love this!!!!!!! I go to church too. I plan on finding myself a nice gay one when I move out. This also reminds me of the time that I wore my rainbow sweater to a family gathering of Christians lol
"Leave the straights alone"
REAL
I felt that
the amount of conjoined reactions in this video 😂
movie-“come however you like”
them-“AWWWWWW”
movie-“wanna spend the night”
them-“WWWWWWWW”
lmao
"Is it gonna be all silent? I suddenly feel the need to whisper. I don't wanna interrupt" 😂😂😂
I watched this movie when it first came out in 2011 and it was definitely up there on my list of best "Queer movies." To have an African American cast depicting the hardships of "coming out" to a "conservative thinking" family is as real as it gets within our community. Fortunately for me, I didn't have this issue with my family, but not everyone is as lucky as I was.
Wanna cry? Watch Prayers for Bobby, heartbreaking af
Alfonso Salvador that broke my soul
I think a lot about the lack of butch rep in media. It infuriates me. This movie was a refreshing break from the mostly white lipsticks everYWHERE
true, i find there has to be a balence between butch, femme and everything inbetween, but if you are just gonna have one type, its better to have lipstick because they are not what people expect
you know what, now that I have seen more of this movie I completely agree, I just had seen nothing like it before, and although I am not a POC, I identify more with this
@@dandhakljhdlsakfhd4972 "It's better to have lipstick because they are not what people expect" - feminine, straight actresses are almost always chosen for these roles because these movies still cater to a straight male audience. There is almost no butch representation in media, even 2 years after. Statements like yours are problematic, because lesbians come in all shapes and forms, yet the only ones Hollywood is making money with are the ones that men will also find "hot", which leads to male directors writing pornographic sex scenes (Blue Is The Warmest Color, Disobedience, Ammonite etc.) that exploit women and exploit lesbians for the viewing pleasure of straight men.
Amanda's face when she said "I LIKE girls I LOVE boys" is me at every straight girl lmfao
Lol true
Favourite part was definitely "You destroying your room doesn't help. You're gonna have to pick all that up eventually"!
:D
True bro
I've had to watch this video a number to times because of editing but from 11:46 to the end of the film, I still cry.
THIS MOVIE WAS INCREDIBLE - SERIOUSLY WATCH IT WITHOUT OUR COMMENTARY
Girl Ship TV please watch the movie Alto
Girl Ship TV I have watched it! But I'd only seen it once, so this was kind of a refresher for me! What did you think when the mom made her go put on a skirt for church?
Girl Ship TV please watch its in the water or liberty's secret!!
Girl Ship TV please watch Concussion
Please watch Blue is the Warmest Color
"Stay away from the straights" My new life motto
*gay tears slowly falling down my face*
yo I cried watching you guys watch this idk if I can cope with watching the whole thing by myself (I will tho)
same
Drop everything! There is a new drunk lesbians react. Nothing you are doing is more important than this right here please and thank you.
I appreciate you having someone of color on your show.
my reaction when her mother started beating her was identical to yours. I had a feeling her mother wasn't going to be supportive if she ever found out but I didn't expect her to take it to that level. This was a great video as always Amanda. Thanks for always entertaining me x
Please watch “While you weren’t looking”
It’s a South African produced movie about the lgbtq community. Has mainly lesbian characters.
Marriage is legal in our country!!
Yaaaaaaay 🇿🇦🏳️🌈
thats amazing
Putting this and Inxeba/The Wound on my must watch yass
A gay film I haven’t seen?
Edit: I gotta watch this film
I highly recommend it!
Me too. I need to watch this movie.
It's very good.
"No wait don't freak out no goddammit no" *screaming* Best part
I legit cried just watching the clips from this... it looks like an incredible movie, and I will ball my face off when I watch it
Saw the notification and like, immediately quit my COD game. That's how you know I love this series and this channel.
This is the ONLY reason I get excited about the week starting over! Great work ladies!
I'm tearing up. I felt I watched the whole movie with you. My hear is weak and getting stronger.
3:01 "that's friendship right there: 'you got problems. call me'" LOL TRUUUUUUU
LGBT POC, I'm down for this👍🏽
I came across this channel literally like 2 or 3 hours ago and can't stop rewatching most of the videos!! 😍
Totally didn't think watching other people watch a movie would make me cry.. but it definitely did.. man! I gotta see that movie
This movie was so good. I need to watch it again
SERIOUSLY. SO GOOD!
Love the dark skin representation
I just found these yesterday & bingewatched them all, so I am so happy that there is already a new one up! 😍❤
Y’all came in clutch I was bored and waiting for this movie
it’s so funny watching y’all get excited over their relationship bc y’all definitely got caught off guard when it crashed
I cried watching this. Definitely going to have to watch the film.
Same and it’s more crazy cause I’m in a African American family however when I came out to my mom as Bi she didn’t hit me or anything but she doesn’t believe me tho
This movie is one of my faves ever. Great job reviewing it ♥♥
I am so happy you watched this movie! I remember I commented a few weeks back recommending it to you guys! It is SO GOOD
"Mom's really want their daughters to show off their figures" HOLY SHIT YES. THIS BOTHERS THE FUCK OUT OF ME. My mom would do that and it just inFURIATED me.
This is definitely my favourite movie that you've watched - the most honest/sincere
Another good one is Princess Cyd! It was just added to Netflix!
These are the only videos on youtube that I dont want to end, like i have to wait 7 days for each new episode....
I love Joelle, please have her back as a guest again!
This movie is on my list to watch for so long, really need to. And thank you for another great video!
Pariah made me sob quite a lot the first time I watched it. I freaking love that movie.
Thank you for exposing your viewers to this excellent film. QWOC rarely get a chance to tell their stories for they are generally the most under-represented and most shamed minorities of the bunch.
I mean, you have to watch:
"Below Her Mouth" with Stephanie Frosh because her reactions are the best. It stars Erika Linder and Natalie Krill (plays Willa in Wynonna Earp) + Elise Bauman stars in it for a few minutes
or "Almost Adults" with Ashly Perez 'cause it stars both Natasha Negovanlis and Elise Bauman as lead roles (Winny Clarkes as well) and it is one of my favourite movies. (It's about coming out basically)
Thank god my mom didn't react like hers did, my mom is religious, when I told her she didn't really like it, but she still love me and accept me
I was literally thinking of this movie and saw you'd uploaded this lol
I love this channel so much! Please never stop uploading videos
Oh. My. Gawd. THIS MOVIE! I cried just watching you guys watch it!
Fingersmith or Tipping the Velvet!
Zambie I was just about to comment the exact same thing
Yeees pls
Yeees please!
Zambie handmaiden
READ THE BOOKS TOO!
YOU
HAVE
TOO!
Just for the record: When I saw that you were about to watch "Pariah," which I hadn't seen yet, I went over to Netflix and watched it there before watching this video. I'm glad I finally had a good incentive to watch the movie. P.S. Nice video.
This movie was a whole rollercoaster when i first saw it. Ive never seen a movie that represneted me. I feel for the protagonist SO MUCH! And that twist? GIRL, I WAS TEARING THE FUCK UP! Thank you guys so much for this video😊😊😊😊 Also, when i say i cried watching this reaction, I. CRIED. 😭😭😭😭
I love how inclusive this channel is Amanda, and Joelle has a lovely bubbly personality. Movie suggestion would be below her mouth
Yo I’m so glad y’all watched this bc it’s seriously in of my favorite movies, also I can’t help but I feel so hard for so many parts.
I love this film. I would have cried had I not seen it before and expected the ending. It’s really really well done and one of the better films out there.
I was so excited when I saw this in my recommendation. Man I love this movie . People please watch it . There is other “wow”scenes that you didn’t see here . For example when she went to her mother after coming out to say goodbye and at the end she said “mom I love you “ but I mother didn’t answer and she kept on saying “I love you “ and her mother grabbed her bible and walked away . Like daaaammmmm. It made me tear up . Great movie
I’m so glad you watched this! So good!
It's so crazy watching y'all watch this movie and be excited in the beginning when I know how it ends :,(
this movies is so good im so happy you guys watched it this week 🙏
So I was real shocked when her mom started beating on her but then I looked at your reactions in the bottom corner I lost it for some reason and started laughing
So I haven't seen this movie before but when I saw you posted I HAD TO watch it haha. I am about to go watch it now but watching your reaction to the movie was hilarious. Never stop making these!! They make my day whenever I see that you posted a new one
