Sanaa Lathan & Blair Underwood's Something New - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

isiahthomas · 01-23-2006, 06:26 PM

This is a new movie coming out next month. I'm sick of Sanaa Lathan and these black romantic comedy movies she keeps doing. This is her 4th black romantic comedy movie. She needs to do somethin else. This movie has a good cast though such as Alfre Woodard, Taraji Henson, Wendy Raquel Robinson, Donald Faison, Golden Brooks. The movie is about Sanaa falls in love with a white guy played by Simon Baker who used to play on the tv show The Guardian. I'm gonna check this movie out because of the cast of actors but i hope Sanaa can do other type of movies. She's been versatile a little bit like when she was a deceiving bad woman in Out Of Time movie with Denzel Washington and Eva Mendes.

I saw the preview the cast is good, but the storyline looks boring

I wanna watch this film. It looks very interesting.

This is the movie I thought Hollywood would never make - a white man and a black woman in love with each other! Who'd have thought they had it in them to make a serious movie about an interracial romance involving a white guy? For that reason alone, I want to see it!

I'm a white guy, and I've always been open to interracial dating. I've never dated a black woman, though, for one reason - I have yet to meet a black woman I have anything in common with. If there's a black woman out there who likes classic rock, Volkswagens, foreign movies, and cycling in the countryside, I'd love to meet her.

Yes, but it's about a white male-black female romance, the kind of story Hollywood normally avoids like poison.

Robert Evans, the movie producer, wanted to make a movie about just such an interracial romance. It was to be called Atlanta, but it never got off the ground.

I saw Something New this past weekend. It wasn't a ground-breaking movie, but it was good.
