Michael Jai White (Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married?, The Dark Knight) stars as a gun-toting, nunchuck-wielding ladies man and soul brother when Black Dynamite debuts on Blu-ray™ and DVD February 16 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Black Dynamite is an outrageous action comedy spoof following the exploits of an ex-CIA agent and full-time ladies man out to avenge the death of his brother against kung-fu masters, drug-dealing pimps and The Man. Director Scott Sanders’ (Thick as Thieves) laugh-out-loud spoof of '70s blaxpoitation movies also stars Tommy Davidson (TV’s “Proud Family,” Juwanna Mann), Salli Richardson-Whitfield (I Am Legend), Arsenio Hall (Igor, Coming to America) and a hilariously funny ensemble cast of characters from film, TV, comedy/stage, sports, music and more. The Blu-ray™ and DVD special features include a filmmaker & cast commentary, deleted scenes, alternate scenes and featurettes. Exclusive to the Blu-ray™ is a featurette highlighting comedians from the film, as well as movieIQ, which allows the user to access real time information on the cast, music, trivia and more while watching the movie via BD-Live™.

SYNOPSIS:
Meet Black Dynamite (Michael Jai White), the smoothest, baddest cat on the street. He’s a ladies’ man and the man with a plan. He’s also a former C.I.A. agent out to avenge his brother’s death. Whether he’s taking down drug dealers or sweet-talking foxy mommas, he’s the man on the streets out to stop The Man. Take a wild ride from the mean streets of the ghetto to the pool halls of the inner city, all the way to the “Honky House” with this bad-ass, tough-as-nails action hero. Black Dynamite is a kung-fu-fighting, pimp-slapping, gun-blasting, outrageously over-the-top parody of ’70s-era blaxploitation films that delivers big action and even bigger laughs like nobody’s bizness.

Black Dynamite was directed by Scott Sanders and written by Michael Jai White, Byron Minns and Scott Sanders. Deanna Berkeley, James Berkeley and Harbor Entertainment executive produced, with Jenny Wiener Steingart and Jon Steingart of Ars Nova serving as producers.

Going into 2008, I was looking forward to three films – “Repo: The Genetic Opera,” “Wall-E,” and “Black Devil Doll.” I’m sure you all heard about “Wall-E,” and everyone who shops at HotTopic has heard of “Repo,” but there is another film that NONE of you guys heard of, and that is a little indie film called “Black Devil Doll.” It’s about a killer doll that is hornier than most men, and he’s black. That’s pretty much it. It’s blaxpoitation, so don’t expect a masterpiece.

Anyway, one of the biggest fans of the movie ran into Al Sharpton (yes THAT Al Sharpton) and told him about the movie. There, the guy got the quote. If they do not put this on a t-shirt or on the poster, I will be sadly disappointed, because this is one of the funniest things ever.

"Pity...it's a shame individuals in our society have regressed to such standards of racial lambasting in favor of lowest common denominator 'entertainment' for the mass public." – Rev. Al Sharpton

Now, can someone tell me what regressed and denominator means?

Do NOT watch the trailer at work or in front of your parents. It will screw you for life. Sexuality, nudity, violence and language are included in the trailer, so don’t say I didn’t warn you.

"Black Devil Doll" will be released sometime in October of 2008. You can expect FilmArcade to get a hands on look at it then.

An inner-city community center's Santa is having a bad day. He's flat broke and some thugs whacked him over the head and stole all of the children's Christmas toys. When he reports it to the police they accuse him of being in on the robbery ("FUCK DA PO-LICE!" - N.W.A.) until they get a call that another toy robbery has taken place. So ol' St. Nick decides to drown his sorrows in a bottle of liquor at the local titty bar. There he sees one of the thieves and decides to follow him and see where he goes.



The unknowing thug leads Santa right to the warehouse where the whole toy caper is going down. Santa then pulls a shotgun out of his ass (or did he jack it from one of the robbers outside?) and starts blowing bitches away. "Merry Christmas you naughty mutha-fuckas"! Will he save the children's Christmas or will the Grinch-thugs finally take a shit on Whoville? (read more)
