This is why black movies and actors aren't taken seriously in the Acadamy.

This is pure garbage. Continue to make crap like this and Hollywood will keep laughing in your faces!

To be fair, white people make comedies that are just as bad. Farrally brothers, Sandler, Stiller etc.

Using this movie to generalize black people? That's called racism.

Actually no, it's called stereotyping.

Which is a symptom of racism.

But it's true. Just calling a spade a spade

Kevin James still makes movies and it doesn't stop white people from getting nominated.

The problem is, so few black movies are being made to begin with (and yes, that is the fault of the predominantly white Hollywood establishment) that crap like this ends up representing a large chunk of the black movies released.

Sandler, Kevin James and the Farrelly Brothers don't end up reflecting on the overall output of white movies released per year because they (thankfully) represent such a small portion of white movies.
