POWER RECAP 0107: JAMIE & ANGELA HAVE THE BEST SEX ON TV

demetria lucas July 28, 2014

I HATE Lala's character (but love Lala). She's like the stereotype of the single friend who hasn't been in a relationship in forever. But she's ride or die for her girl, just like Tasha is ride or die for Ghost, and I respect that.

For some reason, I don't like Angie anymore. Can't put my finger on it. I think I was ok when she didn't know Jamie was married, but now that she knows and keeps the affair up, eh.... It's the "Olivia Pope" problem. At some point she just starts to seem overall stupid for, as MJB called it, "living in a dream." But Jamie be blowing her back out though... Whooo weeee!!!!!

'THINK LIKE A MAN TOO' REVIEW

demetria lucas June 22, 2014

It was something of a given that Think Like a Man was going to get a sequel. The film, inspired by the advice in Steve Harvey’s best-selling advice book and featuring an all-star black cast, grossed more than $33 million during its opening weekend and went on to clear nearly $96 million at the box office. It was a surprise hit, though I’m not sure why it was a surprise. Plenty of black movies have earned good returns, but critics seem amazed every single time it happens, as if black people and nonblack people alike don’t turn out for a solid film, especially one with predominantly black folks in it.

AM I THE ONLY ONE TIRED OF ALL THESE SLAVE/SERVITUDE FILMS?

demetria lucas November 1, 2013

I orginally submitted an essay about my issue with slave/servitude movies on Sept. 25, weeks before "12 Years As A Slave" had its limited release in theatres and before I had seen the film.   Since then, I have seen it, (and wrote a review for The Root.) In short,  my thoughts on "12 Years As A Slave" after viewing it were:   As good as 12 Years is, it is also the most awful experience I have ever had in a theater. At that same 20-minute mark where I acknowledged I should have waited to see it, I also wanted to walk out.
