I was peepin' the threads in this forum, and I thought this was a great intro to my project.

Some folks say "The Wiz"; others say "Friday";

Well here's your chance to express ya'self! Take my African-American movie poll to see where your tastes fall against others. :argue: :mrt:

Let's Do it Again (with Bill Cosby, Sidney Poiter, Jimmy Walker, John Amos) and Car Wash needs to be added to the List. Anyways my picks:

Uptown Saturday Night
School Daze

Soul Food

My picks were:

Cooley High

School Daze
Five Heartbeats, The
What's Love Got to Do with It
 
B-o-o ... The Color Purple is No.1. I hated that movie. I did like Friday, Boys, and the orginal Carmen Jones. Not the one with Beyonce. Malcolm X was also a good one. I loved A. Fisher.

Yeah, SameOldG, "A Piece of The Action" is on the list. :nod: It's under "Piece Of The Action, A". Sorry, :uhoh: I wasn't too consistent when it came to the grammar articles ("a, an, the").
