best black actor?

[youdontknowme]

Samuel L. Jackson

this.

 

[metal_wrath]

Tupac.

Btw, why would you be talking about black men when you're at a bar with a bunch of dudes.

 

[SweptbackFlame]

Samuel L. Jackson

This. and Morgan Freeman & Ving Rhames

 

[Kreator420]

Morgan Freeman, James Earl Jones, Robert Downey Jr.

The only good Denzel movie is Training Day, because he gets shot like the bitch that he is.

Guess you didn't see The Hurricane or Remember the titans?

Freeman's got an incredible voice, but his acting seems to come off as rather holier-than-thou. I prefer the impeccable attitude of Jackson.

 

[waif]

btw, forest withaker is my favorite

He was awesome in Ghost Dog.

Speaking of voices...
Who played that black dude on the wire?
Wait...everyone's black on that show.
The black detective who carves miniatures.
That guy is awesome.

Richard Roundtree

Samuel L. Jackson is far from the best. He has no range and his whole career is based on playing the same character in every movie.

 

[AchrisK]

Mos Def

Or Man on Fire.

 

[cookiecutter]

I suggest watching the movie Glory

I met the real coach "Remember the Titans" was based on, way cooler dude than than Denzel Washington could ever hope to be.

 

[Death Aflame]

Nearly two full pages and none of you tasteless fucks have mentioned Sidney Poitier? Absolutely pathetic.

 

[metal_wrath]

Mos Def

I forgot Mos Def, although I wouldn't consider him the best. He is an extroardinary talent though.

I would have mentioned Sidney Poitier, but I don't see any range in his characters, he seems to be stuck in the same range of emotions. Otherwise he is a very gifted and legendary actor.

 

[General Zaroff]

Morgan Freeman.

Everyone else is a my pals.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

You may be right but I love that character.

Jackson and Freeman.

 

[Bitencourt29]

I suggest watching the movie Glory

That's a great movie, indeed. With a fine cast.

[challenge_everything]

I can't think of many good black actors. Freeman, Jackson and Washington all play the same character in every movie.

For some standout performances I would mention Tony Todd in Candyman and Sidney Poitier in In the Heat of the Night.
