I'll admit my recent purchase was far less impressive than the last, I picked up Dave Chapelle's Block Party (Michel Gondry) yesterday. Don't know if I've bothered to mention this but I'm a huge fan of Chapelle's and have watched and re-watched his show very often. Also a chance to see a movie with a reunited Fugees and Black Star was hard to pass up, I just wish my friends hadn't been so indecisive about seeing it in the theater. I was all about going to the more animated theater generally reserved for people of African decent. The theater is a ghetto, but the crowd is much more lively than at any other place, and in the case of this film, it really would have felt like a party. This is the same theater that has missing ceiling tiles, garbage bags over certain seats, and had a power outage when I went to see Rize a year ago. it also happens to be very close, and not surprisingly really cheap. But I think a few of my friends are a little scared of black people (at least large gatherings in a dark place), so I have to sit with it on DVD. As for your purchases A, nothing too surprising except for the fact that all those films were that damn cheap. Mean streets would be my favorite amongst the ones you got, and if that's one of the films you haven't seen, then you're in for a treat. When you do get to watch it, you should try and get some comments posted in my dormant Martin Scorsese thread.
