>> Introduction
Hello, Thank you for stop by my website. Sorry, this site is Japanese language only. (Of course, expect this page)
The reason I made this website is...
I was fascinated by the movies since early my childhood, I just love to watch any kind of movies and I tried to watch them all,
and I was fascinated by those silver screen stars those Japanese theater companies showed me.
Stars like so called brad packers, Goonies or Stand by me idols.
Then I happened to watched Eddie Murphy and Richard Pryor movies like "Brewster's Millions" and "48 hrs".
And I love them. Whole new laughs towards me, something I've never had before but something I can relate to.
Then I watched "Mo' Money", instantly Damon Wayans became my idol. I just wanted to know all about him,
I just want to write to him how much I loved his movie, but soon I realized he was never on Japanese movie magazines
those brad packers were on covers. That time we didn't have internet like now. I don't know when Damon's new movies
come out to Japan. Then I found his new movies in Video store, 2 or 3 years later from original US release. So my passion
for Damon was not so growing back then.
I think every moviegoer want to watch their idols right then, not 2 or 3 years
later and definitely not on VHS! I want him on BIG screen. Soon I found there are so many talented actors
those were never on Japanese movie magazines.
I just wanted to know who played good friend of Eddie Murphy in gBoomerangh (needless to say, two snaps and a kiss
combination with Damon, David Alan Grier. I had no idea back then!) , I just wanted to know who made the gJuiceh and why
he made. I felt very irritated.
I felt my situation is much related to Japanese moviegoers too. Especially so called Black movies or Urban movies lovers.
They don't have much enough to opportunity to watch their loves, so it is very easy to lose their passion for their
favorite movies or actors.
Then I read Donald Booglefs book gToms, Coons, Mulattoes, Mammies, Bucksh, my inspiration was there.
So many talented actors ignored in Japan. Then I read Mark A Reid gRedefining Black Filmh, his book gave me good
directions. Mel Watkinsf book gOn the Real Sideh cleared what black humor is and why I love their humor.
They are my idols, what they did in the books is my goal. There are some Japanese wrote about Black movies,
and they are very good source for Japanese too. But I still think there are still missing pages. Some of are just appraised
70fs Blaxploitation era. Or there are missing of names of Charles Burnett, Haile Gerima and UCLA grads.
Or some of missing what Richard Pryor did in the 80fs!!
Well, I hope my webpage cover those missing pages of Black Movies. So, if you are a movie star, filmmaker, singer, rapper,
artist, author or whatever, please contribute with me.
It helps me and Japanese fans a lot, and I believe it helps you too.
Maybe your pictures find on this site. But I just want to show off your talents, please forgive me. And you like to
contribute with me or
have good thoughts?
Or message to your fan?
Or just want to give me your Hollywood money? (WOW!)
Please contact me.
