For everyone biticing about Fred nit caring about the strike, you missed his whole point. Hollyweird shitted on him and alot of black actors in the 70s. His point was that he didn't let that stop him from achieving his goals. Instead of cryingnand complaining, he got off his ass and went overseas and made his own movies. So he has no reason to care because that doesn't resonate with who he is. Which is a hustler.
AGREED and well said.I like how he got off his ass and went over-seas and made movies.I also did the same thing,went over-seas as a civilian contracter ( Iraq,Qatar,Afghanistan and Kuwaitt ) as a mercenary first,then logistics for over 10 yrs,been back in america for 1yr & 5 months.I didn't even want to come back to america,at all.I'd rather hunt down terrorists/insurgents.But,the US military got kicked out of Afghanistan,so the civilian contracters had to bounce too.I was pissed !!! LOL. Been gone for over 10 yrs and america is still a-HOT-MESS !!! LOL. Racist whites are still acting out,doing BS stuff,so glad blacks boxed that &&& up at that water-front.About time-TOO. LOL. NEED to continue to box folks up-TOO.
U said that perfectly! That’s exactly why Mr. Williamson had longevity while his peers ended up doing supporting roles, smaller roles or disappeared forever.
@@timothyrobinson3938 Iono about that. Ava Duvernay's newest film was just got very well-received over there and she said her whole career they kept telling her that Europeans don't care about Black American stories, yet she got a 9-min. standing ovation at the premiere.
I know the French have always appreciated lesser known American films, specifically those by Black directors such as Charles Burnett and Billy Woodberry. YT ppl project their own ignorance onto other people and try to make decisions for others. That's the problem.
And these companies are playing the same game with streaming…but isn’t it interesting how there’s ‘’no racism’’ but black movies get the shaft?! Even after our movies save the companies and Hollywood itself we still get shat on… incredible!
Fred comes from a time were you had to figure it out on your own at all times, there was no pretending to be on the enemies side just for a brief moment of convenience and then go back to the back stabbing once the storm cleared…it was either you’re with me or against me no straddling the fence so respect!✊
I forget the name; but please check out Michael's wife's movie inwhere she is the star martial artist.... take it from a martial arts film enthusiast....that was one of the best and darkest martial art films I ever saw.....I absolutely loved every minute of it!!!!
Man I gotta give Vlad his props. MFS dog em and talk shit about em. But he has had some true legends on his platform. People we ain't seen in hellas and been wanting to hear from. Salute Vlad! 💯
Every supportive word makes a difference. So does every negative take. Fred has earned it so I'm not even say this about him. But folks think this strike doesnt have a ripple effect and then want to turn around and complain about the lack of good films and TV as a result from the hiatus.
Physical music distribution was the same. Example: you sign with, lets say Warner brothers here in the USA, they will sign you for Worldwide rights, they will go to each territory worldwide, and sell your contract country by country distribution. They sign you for a million upfront, they would be able to sell and each territory, secure their investment, and have a working capital investment to work your project before your project is released, based on the advances from Warner brothers, world wide territories. Each country has it's own acquisition budget. So that one million, up front can potentially be a $10 million worldwide return, that the artist has no clue, nor truly care. International deals, are done, internationally. Cannes, and all of these international film festivals, are were you make your international connections. But the average actor, singer, rapper is not business minded, and just ish and giggles to get the biggest check of their lives upfront, and will be in the negative interms of the advance monies, and the marking and promotional dollars invested into that act upfront, and throughout the duration of label and artist relationship. Not bad business, but smart business, on the label or film studio side.
I love MJ, but he is wrong about "Undisputed 2" title in China. "Undisputed 2" title in China is "终极斗士2", which translates to "The Ultimate Fighter 2". He should check his sources.
I personally don't think it is always cool to invite someone over for an interview and bring on a surprise guest... Keep the spotlight on the main guest me thinks. Not unless you told him in advance about it, that after certain questions we will bring on that guy, cause sometimes having someone else in the room might affect how you would have answered some of your questions, if that person was not present... That's just me, but me, but yeah I pickup on this minute things.
An actor said on the Today show with Bryant Gumbel many moons ago, when asked what his next project? He stated the same thing too. Then honestly stated he had nothing lined up. What movie he done in the last two years, sir? He loves the overseas market, but none of those movies pushed it. MJW didn't offer him a part.
His whole point was when shit doesn't go your way, make your own way. You clearly did listen to him tell about him going overseas when and making his own movies when it wasn't working out for him in the states.

What the hell are you talking about? Fred Williamson just gave an education that is far more valuable than some empty platitudes that obviously hasn't served any real purpose.

Fred should tell mjw he shouldn't be so envious everyone says bruce lee was the greatest fighter who ever lived and to not lie and say jackie chan beats bruce out of spite. And from nobody saying mjw is the best fighter
@@xanjuro9697 That may be so BUT I’m sure he’s old enough to know if you don’t have nothing nice to say. Then don’t say nothing at all. And before you reply to that I already know your going defend him but I made it clear already. No hate
For those who love click baits, 5min, takes listen to this crap, but I'm telling there real issues wiriters and actors are facing including AI and to listen to these hopeless people trying to belittle their efforts is the highest of indifference and frankly arrogance..
No indifference. They’re basically saying become your own boss and you don’t have to worry about stuff like that. You see ppl like Tom cruise don’t have to worry because he is his own boss. Has his own film and production company. People don’t like him because of his religion, but they can’t blackball him from making money because he can make a movie whenever he wants because he is the owner. Same thing with JK Rowling. The trans community is trying to blackball her but they can’t. She created Harry Potter and all the money goes to her because once again, she is the boss and creator. So like they said, being an employee you are at the employers mercy. They pay you what you are not worth and can do anything with your contract, even cancel you. But when you are the owner, the ball is in your court. So this is why they may seem indifferent because they are not employees. They are bosses. It is good to be the boss or owner in any walk of life. You call the shots.
@@mickymickymike4105 Not everybody can become their own boss. right away, you should know that if you're black , how the system prevents you becoming that. Where do you think Tom Crusie started ? LOL . Where do you think Fred & Michael here, started ? Were the a boss right away ? They're weren't a boss from day one. Also JK Rowling got lucky, and is another business sector. She was sleeping in a car. That Book world is equally as exploitative as Hollywood. So many people get screwed along the way. And never have a chance to make it. Bro, Please stop siding with the Rich , and the money man who screw black people. & The poor.
@mickymickymike4105 idk if you genuinely understand the damage jk rowling has done to her career. She owns a studio that saw a 74 percent drop in profit and primarily operates on deals shes done with BBC which is a uk based production company. This idea of "doing it yourself" can only get you so far. Look at blaxploitation films and you tell me how many still exist today. These companies have a stronghold over an entire industry and with increasing cost it just isnt all that realistic to do it on your own when most of these large production films have billion dollar budgets. Movies in france dont help people in the US. It is extremely arrogant for him to say this because the industry has evolved tremendously over the past 40 years. the empire strikes back and the phantom menace for example the first one cost 30 million to make and the other cost 115 million respectively. Granted these people do need financial advisors and economist to help them navigate the union contract process because ultimately bad contracts are what ultimately lead to this strike but that doesnt negate the fact that without the union theres no telling what would happen to these people
Knowing your value doesn’t make you arrogant. Good luck to these two gentlemen.
