How sad must it be that they're part of one of the most discriminated against demographics of all time, and one of the only things that keeps them from being successful is their skin color?

MAYBE, if not for rampant and ignorant racism, such movies wouldn't be so rare and the audience starved for them.

Okay, I'm gonna ignore the "they're part of one of the most descriminated against" part because I REALLY don't wanna derail this thread. (Spoiler: black people aren't discriminated NEARLY as much as Asians)

 

BUT ANYWAY

 

If audiences "starved" for an all black cast movie - then how come Moonlight wasn't a box office phenomenon? I'm just going by your logic bro. 

Not replying to you, but just expanding that I had no issue with Moonlight despite it being primarily black cast. Because that was not the primary marketing vehicle or value of the movie. It wasn't riding a race wave to success, it was a legitimately good movie that happened to focus on a black narrative. No problem there.
