If you haven't seen this, you must, must, must watch the red band trailer for BLACK DYNAMITE!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. This is one of my favorite things to hit the web in the last couple of days. When a friend of mine sent it to me I didn't realize it was a new movie until about halfway through. Scott Sanders really seems to get blaxploitation... and if you couldn't tell just by the visuals, he shamelessly rips off the awesome DOLEMITE trailer, but it's so loving I can let it slide. Let's hope this movie lives up to its trailer because what I love about the trailer is it gets the genre right, but doesn't come off as some a self-aware spoof. If this movie can play as a blaxploitation film first and foremost I will be in heaven.
UPDATE: The Black Dynamite server is blown, but check below the link for the Twitch embed!

...a Wayans collaborator could be behind a film with such an amusing trailer.
More of a Project Terror than a Death Proof this one, obviously, but should raise a big smile at least. -
You know this to be true.
-
And that's what sucks about it. It comes across like a giant wink at the bar but the girl goes home with Rudy Ray Moore.
-
With QoS being so underwhelming, and this trailer kicking so much ass, why not shoot the next Bond film with a 10 dollar budget, have a dozen Bond girls...oh I mean "bitches", and get this guy in his 100$ suit so he can stop the bad guys from stealing Bolivia's water. Nah...fuck it...just have him fight Lo Pan!
-
made me laugh out loud. Looks like this could be fun.
-
I never can really get into any satire of it because it's just too easy and it seems like it would only be funny to the people that aren't really too familiar with it. I'd rather just watch Human Tornado again or seek out some arcane never released on dvd flick then watch something like this.

Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 8126464) (tried to allocate 47 bytes) in /home/blackdyn/public_html/includes/cache.inc on line 33I don't even know what that fucking means!
-
not laugh out loud in your seat fun, but more like a smirk and an eye roll...but a good time nonetheless.
-
The guy is a legend. I blame Spawn I guess but, in a world where we've lost the only other black guy who can kick ass in Hollywood (Hello Mr Snipes), we need someone like Jay White. If I've spelt his name wrong, please don't tell him as I reckon he could kill me with just one finger.(Incidentally, one of my friends regularly brings up his favourite scene in "Exit Wounds" where they introduce White's character using just his HUGE arm.)
-
Took me a while to realize it wasnt him but mr Spawn himself
-
makes hobo dog food now.
-
Michael Jai White is devoid of charisma and acting ability. Maybe in the 80's he would have had a shot. But who gives a shit this movie looks fucking awesome!
-
Devoid of charisma and acting ability? Do you think so? I always enjoy seeing him onscreen. In fact, i'd say his acting ability is about the same as Jason Stratham who is still managing to land roles in some of the bigger action movies.P.S Well done for escaping the trap of writing my name in your headline. I'm still waiting for someone to do it....
-
damn shacky psuedo 70's style.
Grindhouse showed you how to do exploitation without headaches... you should have copied them you bastard...
other than that looks like fun... -
I've never let a lack of charisma and acting ability stop me from enjoying a movie. That's probably why Nightbeast is my favorite movie. As far as Statham is concerned even his lack of talent isn't enough to salvage the movies he's in.
-
"I'm Pooter the Clown!"
-
That was awesome.
-
This is gonna be better than Avatar!!! Do you see where I'm coming from you jive motherfuckas??!!!
-
That trailer was pure bliss.. and there's another 76 minutes of this waiting for me? Where do I sign up?
Is Mr. Green Jeans Mackin' too?
"Noiice" -
I is a sad panda.
-
Makes me laugh hard every time. Had to rewind that line about 10 times. I can't believe how fucking crazy intense he gets when he over pronounces the word "Mothafuckas". Pure gold.

That one's dead.

I just read that Gore Verbinski was gonna remake the Host

FUUUUUCK!!!!! The original is some perfect shit. Don't fuckin change a thing!!!!!
-
This trailer made my day!

I'm speechless. Absolute perfection, in every way. And michael jai white has come a long way since spawn. Well, then again, maybe he hasn't. But he's perfect in this.
-
how upset i am that we just lost to world cup. we queenslanders need to have a hard look at ourselves (cause my state is the national team) we are a discrase. we need to harden the fuck up. i had an awesome day today. untill the end. discrase
-
great day at the criket. they droped katich on 86. fools. the union is playing now but i dont have access tp to it
-
i cant even think about it. league is our sport. we have discrased ourselves.
-
Yeah, I'll rent this.
-
me and my mate have been talking about the resurrection of these films since we saw the trailer for the Human Tornado at a Grindhouse event. only problem with this one may be that its almost a little too accurate.

"Bucky! What is you done to yo sef?"
-
This looks awesome.
-
...but didn't have the balls to.
It took about 10 seconds for this trailer to break down my skepticism. I'm there! And by "there" I mean DVD. -
All imdb sez is "2008"....And I LOVED Undercover Brother, by the way.
-
"You right about that sugar, you right about that"
Fucking splendid. -
Where are the original stuff ?!? It's funny , though. That rolling donut bastard was epic.
-
Hahaha this is just like the real deal. I'm will definitely check out this one!
-
I'm tired of genre parodies (I did like "Planet Terror", though) and hope that this is a real blaxploitation flick. Not very interested unless this is the real deal.
-
If this IS a parody, I hope that it is as subtle as the trailer implies.
-
Is that Cedric Yarbrough from Reno 911 as the drug dealer who says "But I sell drugs in the community?"

SHHHHHHH! You're gonna wake up the rest of the bitches.
by jimmy rabbitte
-
Rudy Ray has a smile on his face right now...
-
can fap to that for awhile till full movie is released.
-
Gotta see this, NOW!
-
That was fan-fucking-tastic in every way.
-
We fags already run the entertainment industry (along with the Jews, of course) so we'll just continue to queer up all of the mainstream releases.

Clay Davis approves of this film.

THAT TRAILER ALONE REDEEMS THE DAMAGE DONE BY TWILIGHT
by bringingsexyback
Never thought I'd see a black man kicking ass with nunchuks. My dreams have come true!!! Bring it bitches!!!!
-
Other posters are right, he doesn't get enough respect. And that "I get off in 15 mins" bit was hilarious. As well as, "but Black Dynamite, I sell drugs to the community!"
-
...watching that trailer! Fucking awesome! As a huge fan of the late Rudy Ray Moore, I can't wait to see that movie. Looks like a cross between Dolemite and the brilliant Disco Godfather. L.A. geeks check out the Rudy tribute @ New Bev on Dec. 2. What has he had?
-
machette...i miss good exploitation flicks...gotta see this in a theater packed with black folks all screaming at the screen
-
but I dont know if I could handle a whole movie of this. I need to start doing drugs or something, my 'clean and sober' lifestyle is really getting in the way of my enjoying shitty entertainment.
-
Man they smacked that way out of the ballpark film stock and all!
Rudy Ray Moore and that bad D'urville Martin have got to be looking down smiling from disco godfather heaven.
If they can just keep a fucking rap song out of it, it will be perfect.
I’m so there opening day.
-
In fact, I think in "Disco Godfather", Rudy had nephew named Bucky who OD'ed on "whack." I remember Rudy yelling, "What has Bucky had?!! Somebody get me a ban-ambalance" (Something like that.) That said, this Black Dynamite movie trailer makes me smile big.
-
'see, you gonna wake up the other bitches' Fucking classic! Thanks AICN, you finally broke something I never heard of, and it's got me looking forward to something!
That's what this site is all about. Hope it's release in the theaters. -
Perfect timing for this homage to Rudy Ray, being that he recently died. This movie is going straight into my collection!
-
Nice! Someone needs to make Avenging Hip-Hop Godfather...
-
jive turkey suckas!
-
as this one, I'd see 90% of the movies released. By far 1 of the 5 BEST trailers of the year.
-
'nuff said...
-
Awesome that they got Arsenio Hall and "Captain Kangeroo" for this. GOLD!!!!!!!
-
I'm seeing this.
-
please
-
What am I talkin' about, of course it exists - BLACK DYNAMITE you just got a date in my DVD player when the boys are round and the beers are flowing. This movie looks uber fun(ky) and I can't wait to see it!

Finally. After a week of Twilght bullshit my cock's got some

blood in it again. This movie will be top notch.
-
And Harry, can we get this trailer on the big screen at BNAT?!?
-
this looks awsome. "Brutha, your death wont go unrevenged!" hahaha cant wait
-
Fake-ass shitty kung fu moves FTW!
-
That shit was fucking terrible. No matter how many "funny" lines a neo-blaxploitation trailer has, I'd be hard pressed to see any more of this "retro" crap after the supreme burn of "Planet Terror" and (shudder)"Death Proof". The lemmings march on, just because Michael Jai White said "bitches". Wow. No thanks.
-
Must have recorded it before he passed - AWESOME. Anyone who's not down for this is a NO BUSINESS, BORN INSECURE, RAT SOUP EATIN' MUTHAFUCKAAAA!!
-
I'll drink to that.
-
I'll probably be there. Otherwise, I'll probably forget about this one in a week.
-
when when when???
-
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-it...
That looked about a gazillion times more impressive than Grindhouse. -
Okay, I'm sold.
-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2raHizWcapY
no seriously its a scene from the film -
I. Can. Not. Wait. This might take the place of "Scream, Blacula Scream" on my list of favs.
-
even this skidmark of a movie.
-
That was a fantastic trailer. Hilarious and full of ass-kicking. I can't wait to see this movie in its entirety.
-
thanks for that! i can't wait to see this! grindhouse coming into the mainstream even more!
-
No more to my post. I just don't get it.
-
For you existential bitches.
-
That was funny, although some of it got silly in the end, but Michael Jai White is just an extraordinary martial artist, wow!!!
-

Hey Marvel, Michael Jai White Deserves To Be The Next "Blade"!!!
by media messiah
I think this movie is audition enough, Michael Jai White is Blade. Time for a new Blade franchise, a reboot, ala Batman Begins...and The Incredible Hulk!!!
-
Very, very cute trailer. Don't want to see the movie.
-
Heard it was coming out this year... is that true..?
-
Nov 22, 2008 5:48:31 PM CST
I guess over the top for that trailer would have been..
by julius dithers
JJ Evans from Good Times walking in and shouting the main character's name. Looks like fun, though.
-
Shit, wrong movie.
-
Overall I'll say it is hit and miss, but the good news is that the best jokes aren't even in the trailer.
Plus if you love Roscoes Chicken n' Waffles, you'll love this movie. -
the trailer covered everything - the joke's potency is only trailer length in scope - imagine 90 minutes of that - even the trailer felt too long
-
Pure fucking genius.
-
Nov 22, 2008 6:43:39 PM CST
notice Mykelti Williamson is called "William T. Michaelson"
by badmrwonka
that is fucking funny. and Decric Yarborough is hilarious, this looks really goddamn good.
-
It seems way to over the top to beat out Black Belt Jones.
-
You can just tell when there's a lot of love put into something. I'm there opening night.
-
Dude, come on.
-
dude, come on
-
This looks awesome. The key to making a good Grindhouse style exploitation flick is that you have to try and make a good film... then fail. This looks like it is somewhat aware, but unlike Death Proof it's actually trying to have that down and dirty look. So it looks awful, but in a fun way.
-
Rodriguez dropped the ball there, big-time. That film could've been shot in 14 days, edited in a month. It's not meant to be good, it's meant to be cheesy and awesome and Danny Trejo fucking people up with large knives. Just direct it already Rodriguez.
-
Are y'all saying if blaxploitation was a current genre, y'all'd be paying $10 to see these flicks? Come on. I didn't any of you lining up for that Cadavra movie a while back. Oldey-times genre doesn't automatically equal good modern anything, even for you retro hipsters.
-
First the Watchmen trailer... then the Star Trek trailer... now this! 3 for 3 in my book.
-
If they put that on here for one night at 12am, I'd be there.
-
Movie looks great, but I say Jai White for Power Man Luke Cage not Blade and Stratham as Iron Fist.
-
I agree with every word in your post. If he was serious, he could have knocked it out easily. As far as resources, he's like a smaller, Texas version of Lucas. He owns everything he needs to make a film, in his home town. We all know that he can shoot fast, if he wants to. He needs to do it fast and cheap. I think it's a wasted opportunity.
-
I was so excited for Grindhouse! Unfortunately, they spent so much time mocking the era with the "scratchy" film and poor editing, they left in cell phones, Lindsey Lohan name drops, and other modern crap that took me right out of the experience. The only 2 things I really liked about Grindhouse were Machete(perfect) and Thanksgiving(near perfect except for the modern day "porn star" boobs). Not only do the costumes, film color & quality, and script make this seem like a true 70's exploitation movie, it also has tits that look like they're from that era.
-
thats a great idea for power man and iron fist - perfect casting - too bad it will never get made
-
where's chappelle?
-
That is a perfect blaxploitation trailer. Michael Jai White looks freaking hilarious!!!
I really want to see this movie! -
and then Cap. Kangaroo comes on screen and I lost it! I'm fuckin in! When does it come out?

That looks like the baddestmovie of all time. Dolemite and Black Belt Jones are my two favorites. Please tell me this shit is getting made. I remeber LL Cool J mentioned in a Dolemite remake,fuck that. This is the shit.
-
Fuck yeah I'm there

I saw this on Film Drunk the other day. The two things that get me the most:
1. Do you see where I'm comin' from you jive muthafuckaaaaa?
2. Rated Are-ah. -

Stylistically fantastic! But will it be as funny as I'm Gonna G

I can't wait to see the man-in-a-giant-cookie gunfight.
-
John Salley as Kotex
Miguel Nunez as Mo Bitches
Brian Mcknight as Sweetmeat -
Punctuation is for sucks, anyway
-
brilliant
-
Please tell me this is going to make it to theaters!!! Anybody know the release date? This is now my number one must see movie. This is the type of film that Grindhouse should have launched into everyday theatergoers consciousness. I will buy tickets now!
-
I generally get excited to see movies, but I'm really excited to see this. Try not to wake the other bitches!
-
This is the fucking hog's balls. This is the fucking tits. This is the fucking greatest thing I've seen since 'Don't', the trailer by Edgar Wright shown during Grindhouse. Fuck. They need to make 'Don't', and soon, I'll have another flick to add to my modern Grindhouse film festival...Death Proof, Planet Terror, Machete (coming soon)...and Black Dynamite.Rated AR-Uh.
-
I'd prefer to see Thanksgiving. And chaps, if you like Grindhouse track down 'Pieces.' It is an amazingly bad film.
-
They got me forever with that atrocious looking CIA ID card. And kept me with the CIA Agent repeating what the narrator said a second earlier.
-
and Pieces is great fun. I was way too young when I saw that movie.
-
That was a great flick...I tracked it down in a bad dvd 4pack last halloween. I hadn't seen it since 8th grade, 22 years ago.
Black Dynamite looks awesome too.
-
Chaps, if you get the chance you HAVE to watch it in a cinema. It's an amazing experience. 'Kendalll!!!'
-
and own multiple 100 dollar suits.
-
ha that line was hillarious, as a white person i love that insult, cause it sounds funny. This looks like a good spoof..and was that arsionio hall?
-
Bujo Omega: Beyond the Darkness. Check that nasty fucker out.
-
I'll add it to the list. There's one called 'Werewolf in a Womens Prison' that looks ridiculously fucked up.
-
That's like a Reese's Cup with extra awesome.
-
Fuckin' sucks. Maybe I should just buy it?
-
durn
-
There's a trailer on Youtube. It's disgustingly funny.
-
Seriously, I love Shaft and Dolomite as much as the next guy, but they were real movies. This is a fucking parody sketch that stretches thin after the 2 minute mark. Wow a send up of blaxploitation movies? How fucking original! How many fucking things do we need anyway?
-
If it is a send-up, it's a subtle one. No-one is obviously playing to the camera. It's funny, but it's not like Michael Jai White is winking at the camera; he's playing the absurdity in a subtle way.
-
For all the press it's getting, both here and at CHUD, you'd think somebody would be able to squeeze out a release date; all IMDB sez is "2008". Look, GNR's "Chinese Democracy" finally came out ferchrissakes; surely we can get a date for BLACK DYNAMITE!
-
if it's funny AND serious, like SHAFT and CLEOPATRA JONES, it will be a classic blaxploitation film.
The trailer looks over-the-top without trying to be a parody, which is what the 2 aformentioned flicks were. -
Is there any other kind?
-
A bit more research on my part led to the discovery that BLACK DYNAMITE will be premiering at Sundance in 2009...day-um jive-ass motherfucKAAAAAS; no asses in traction this year!
-
For me, it'll always be COFFY and FOXY BROWN...one because a dope pusher gets his head blown off in the first few minutes (pretty obviously a seedless watermelon, but still very cool) and the other because it's the only film in which you can hear a black dude NOT give a convincing line-reading when saying "Right on, brother!" Oh, and mainly because Pam was (and still is) da hotness.
-
Not so loud dude, you'll wake the bitches.
-
Honky Cracker that I am and all. It's a fun fuckin' genre that started in a time when its target audience were literally being left out of the mainstream film industry. I'll second the Pam Grier hotness as well.
-
That means it won't make it to conventional theaters (if it even has a chance at doing so) until, at best, fall of next year!
That is stupid as hell. -
... the rest (including the voice overs) is taken from an assortment of genuine 70's blaxploitation movies... I doubt a real/finished product can come of that.
-
All the source footage in the trailer makes it look like a blaxploitation DEAD MEN DON'T WEAR PLAID (which I would happily go see, but what's going on here?).
-
...puzzles me. Why the fuck is thing harmless trailer rated R ?!?! There's more sexual content in a shower commercial over here than in that US trailer.
-
...And knows someone who has worked on it very little of the footage is from older Blaxplotation movies, mostly b-roll for stock and montages. As for the trailer, maybe six shots are from older movies. Sure, a lot of the stuff is shot to resemble other movies (parody, homage or rip off, your call), but the vast majority of it is original footage. As for the VO, well it might be a word for word rip off of another movies narration (I have never heard it) but what you are hearing was specifically recorded for this movie.
-
... that Dolemite is back on the scene! I'm gonna let 'em know that Dolemite is my name, and fuckin' up motha fuckas is my game!
-
Well, I hope you're correct but as for the VO stuff, I collect Blaxploitation radio spots and the audio used in that trailer ARE the original radio VOs, edited - they are *not* remakes.
-
That has to be the greatest thing I've ever seen in my life! That's all I wanted to say.
-
I am curious what movie the trailer VO is from, because the actor who is saying it is in the movie. I wonder did they have him recreate it or if they used an old VO he did before.
-
This movie looks all new except for some stock footage of street scenes and things like that. And the voice over seems all new too, but I'm sure they were doing their best to sound like Rudy Ray Moore. I even checked to see if he actually did do the VO but he died earlier this year. And I think this will debut at Sundance in January.
-
Nov 24, 2008 12:44:02 PM CST
Yeah, I find it hard to believe this VO isn't original
by continentalop
…When he announces the names of people who don’t even exist (try googling any of the cast name) and then says that the film was shot in "Anamorphic Dou-Vision". Everyone knows that process wasn’t invented until 1987, duh.
-
"Dolemite is my name, and fuckin up motha fuckas is my game."
-
This looks too awesome to be true.
-
Good lord I am so there. I crave satisfaction.
-
Suddenly, I'm 3 years old again watching Fred Williamson/Pam Grier triple features at the drive-in theatre in my mom's old 1967 Impala! MUST! SEE! THIS! MOVIE! NOW!!!
-
To hell with "Machete!" They need to give that "Hobo With A Shotgun" guy the $$$ for a full length version, pair it with "Black Dynamite" and call it "Grindhouse 2!"
-
Just got back from the Black Dynamite website - http://www.blackdynamite.com/ - and saw the Green Band trailer. At the end it says that the flick is coming to Sundance in January 2009!
-
I like it allot!
