Princess Weekes, Black Films Are Set Up to Fail
The second lesson of the weekend is yet another one that should have been learned by now: Yes, black people go to the movies. We all like to act surprised over and over when Tyler Perry scores again and again or when Kevin Hart’s Laugh At My Pain or Let Me Explain break out in limited release. It’s well-past time we noticed that black audiences like seeing themselves onscreen. More importantly, and this is arguably the key, really like seeing black characters onscreen in starring roles in films that don’t necessarily revolve around racially-based adversity. When Hollywood bothers to make films like that, African-American audiences generally show up in relatively solid numbers [...].

since being here, i realize that we shouldn’t have a limit of black writers. so i’m throwing my hat in the ring, y’all. I’m a little rusty but these ideas bouncing in my head about michael need to come out. so i’m about to start writing and hopefully you like it. don’t worry, all of my fics will be catered to my fellow black readers because i don’t read nothing BUT black reader when it comes down to him. no shade.
stay tuned, lovelies 🤎

The show is following the book to a tee when it comes to louis - lestat and claudia. Book readers have been trying to tell you from the beginning. The writers room might be collaborative but nothing makes it in the show that Rolin doesn’t approve of, now and in s1 and s2. Stop being naive. Rolin gives the outline of the episodes he can’t write himself and they write it, the end. Also speak for yourself. Black viewers aren’t a monolith, nor are black writers.
Stop being naive….?
Book readers have been screaming from the mountain tops since this season began that this is not like the book and they’ve said it consistently.
As for Black viewers and writers, I’ll let them speak for themselves about people like you glorifying a White man speaking on behalf of Black characters and actors.
I think I speak for everyone in this fandom when I say that we need Black writers back in the writer’s room.
The Black writers for seasons 1-2 of IWTV were Ben Philippe, David B Harris, and A. Zell Williams.
These are the men responsible for providing substance and depth to the Black characters in the first two seasons, mainly Louis and Claudia. They knew how to tackle struggle, injustices, history, rage, pain, and the ugly truth of American and European Black history. They didn’t pull punches with the hard stuff and they knew how to work with the soft stuff.
Season 3 tried to create edgy content and humor without these men and absolutely failed at it in every way possible. And they have failed both Louis and Claudia.
The Black jokes about Louis being “Louisiana Fried Chicken”, Louis continuing to be the pimp and needing his White savior that is Lestat, Claudia’s entire monologue about Louis being a literal slave to Lestat in that old Louisiana accent. And not to mention the complete erasure of Lemuel after only a couple episodes.
It’s not working.
If there’s gonna be Black actors on screen, there needs to be Black writers in the writer’s room.
Hello !!! I saw you mention Hey by my brother ToonrificTariq in a thread talking about black indie animation . Apologies if this is a bit forward but as a smaller creator I'm trying to just reach out to people and wanted to see if you'd be interested in my show as well. I also worked on Hey as a board artist.
My name is Bre and I'm s black NB Creator . My show is @thethreetomes The Three Tomes. A bi black magical girl witch in the 2010s Midwest must capture spirits , fight against a mysterious fur and deal with two queer vampire boys that have fallen for her and like each other a bit as well. The main cast is majority POC and queer.
I aim to showcase a spectrum of black queer identity, destroying the disposable black girlfriend trope and showcasing that black folks can be in stories that don't center our pain. If you'd like to check it out the pilot is on YouTube and you can explore more of it ( comics , animatics , etc) on the master post on my blog @thethreetomes
Hope you give it a try and enjoy .
Oh my goodness hello! I just finished watching the indie pilot and I LOVED it! The voice acting was well directed. The pacing slowed when it needed to and was fast when needed, which is a rare feat in my opinion. My favorite so far is Shirley!
