Special mention should go to Oscar Micheaux who was the first Black director of a major film. He also owned and operated Lincoln Motion Picture Company, which had all Black film makers.
You're on to something with this show bro! Didn't know the top 10. What was cool is how you switched up from domestic, to worldwide and per movie. Perspective and context matters. Keep doing ya thing King! 👊🏿🖤
I think I speak for the entire chatsworth when I say that when you took the glasses off for the dive into you and Cerain’s trailer experience..I was all in “Ooo ooo Ooo! Talk to us Professor!” Way to capture the audience man!
Really like Ernest Dickerson who directed one of my favorite horror movies, "Demon Knight". Also surprised that Robert Townsend didn't make the list. Honestly never heard of Tim Story, but love the content.
I honestly feel like the inflation numbers are important in some regards. The inflated numbers of the older movies in these times compare to the top grossing of today.
Ok, Tony. First off I’m all on these Gross Pointe Bakes. I’m rewatching this one on Black directors after getting caught up on the latest entries and I need this one adjust for inflation, brother! I need you to Revisit this one. Update them excel spreadsheets!!!
I need to know how much of this you know prior to researching. Because I remember all the stuff w Kev you knew off the dome. Side note I’m going to guess spike is # 1 ?
I forgot about Tyler Perry and Ryan Coogler somehow, but I also forgot it was only domestic. My beginning guess of F. Gary Gray was correct for international box office.
I love the scary movies but yes Keenan brought more flavor,depth,hilarity,and pushing boundaries to the series. So when they left they were missed and would love it if they did another as long as they don't do the requels shit like if they do a regular sequel that'd be beautiful for them to put their vision to their own series but to do the requels shit that's been done to death for nostalgia no I'm good.
Wait, in your favorite actresses, Lupita doesn't make the list? She's so lovable and so talented. I think Cynthia Erivo is also on my list now. Really love her.
Early into the video, I think number 1 is gonna be F. Gary Gray because of the Fast and the Furious movie he directed making like over a billion dollars welp, I was wrong lol
I'm probably wrong but I'm going Ryan Coogler or the Director of Get Out (Jordan Peele?) as number 1. Maybe John Singleton 🤔 10. I thought Jordan Peele was Get Out, Us, & Nope? 9. Good for him. He did a string of Silly movies and made some crazy money off of it 8. I'm a little embarrassed that I haven't seen enough Spike Lee Movies. Malcom X is definitely on the list of movies to watch soon. 7. I respect it 6. Only seen undercover brother & roll bounce but respect 5. Haven't seen his movies but I know they're pretty iconic 4. Black Panther & Creed love them both. Heard fruitville station would be too sad for me 3. Yeah Friday is iconic. Didn't like Straight Outta Compton 2. Saw Barbershop & liked Fantastic four 😅 & def liked think like a man 1. Seen a ton of his plays & a few of his movies 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Tyler Perry didn't even cross my mind, I was thinking nobody left but the Van Peebles 🤣🤣

I totally forgot about Tyler Perry lol! I thought Ryan could possibly be #1 because of Black Panther.
I thought the same
Facts but let’s talk about the effects of his work

Demon Knight👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I didn't know Demon Knight had a black director! Billy Zane was hilarious in that
@@fangal12 Yes he was! He was hilarious in almost every scene. Haha!
I had no idea about Spike's cousins! and I was expecting Robert Townsend on that list. Great list, an eye opener!
Tony's new title shall be.... box office subject matter expert.
I wasn't expecting Tyler Perry to be #1. I figured he would be on the list though. Another great show
Thank you for the education. I NEVER knew!!! ❤️
Love this concept, wish there was a audio version to listen to at the job
Thanks for the Sidney Poitier fact. I never knew he directed.
I honestly feel like the inflation numbers are important in some regards. The inflated numbers of the older movies in these times compare to the top grossing of today.
*Great Job Tony* You should just revisit Jordan and Ryan on this list next year after Black Panther and Nope.
This was super informative! Thanks, Tony!
I chose Ryan Coogler for #1. You should do a poll for these.
I’m surprised Will Packer wasn’t on this list
I thought he would’ve at least made the list lol
This is dope and informational!!
Ok, Tony. First off I’m all on these Gross Pointe Bakes. I’m rewatching this one on Black directors after getting caught up on the latest entries and I need this one adjust for inflation, brother! I need you to
Revisit this one. Update them excel spreadsheets!!!
Thank you for shouting out Gina; she’s one of my favorite directors.
I’m excited about her new movie with Viola Davis.
Great list with a lot of great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
We learned about Kenan & Robert Townsend during Black History month...lol. Legends
I really liked this video. Hope you do more like this
Once you said Tyler Perry name I immediately was like "makes sense." I thought it was gonna be Spike Lee tho.
Tyler P. being in the number 1 spot in domestic just shows consistent compounding interest really does work lol.
Yo first , what up Tony!!!
Yes! More GPB! really curious about this one.
Regina King is a queen! Love everything she does.
Just here to say that I guessed #1 correctly.
His popularity in the past like 10 or so years is unmatched.
Thank you for this list , please make more lists
Rest in peace, Sidney Poitier 🙏🏾💙
Ryan about to be even higher with black panther 2 this is a great list. Inspirational
First person I thought of was John Singleton. But a really cool list, don't know why I didn't guess the #1 spot 🤔😄😄
You love the box office stats!
I would like to see you continue with the horror stuff. You should do a highest grossing creature feature and paranormal movie franchises.
I am Loving these episodes.. I am a Movie Nerd as well..
Not even gonna lie, before the he started the list, Jordan peele wasn't even a thought since he only had 2 movies at the time Tony did this list
I need to know how much of this you know prior to researching. Because I remember all the stuff w Kev you knew off the dome. Side note I’m going to guess spike is # 1 ?
Not surprised with TP
Ryan and Tim names never rang a bell until I heard the movies. Everyone else very familiar with their works. John and F. Gary are my favs.
💯✊🏿💯
Salute fam
Black Panther 2 is gonna put him at #1
EASILY!
Fun fact: Keenan made a light Cameo appearance as an extra on the sitcom Cheers season 1 like episode 1 or 2
Top 10 Grossing Apocalypse Movies regardless of genre
Black excellence ✊🏾❤️🖤💚
My brain stopped working the second you mentioned tim story. I literally was wondering you were trying to say toy story was a person
I had no idea who Tim Story is...I don't really cut for TP movies so I didn't think of him, and I had Ryan Coogler #1....
Ryan Coogler is my first instinct
Yeahhhhh when Wakanda Forever drops-Ryan Coogler will be unstoppable
Top 10 Thrillers of all-time! For the people in the back!!‼️‼️‼️
Tony you got to redo this list January next year once we get black panthers 2 official numbers... And do it with inflation that would be dope
Leading black actors
My guess is between Ryan Coogler and Spike Lee. Black Panther put butts in seats
I need that shirt tony 💪🏾
Spike Lee was my very 1st guess. But I forgot about Quincy. It's gotta be him.
I forgot about Tyler Perry and Ryan Coogler somehow, but I also forgot it was only domestic. My beginning guess of F. Gary Gray was correct for international box office.
I wanna see the highest grossing Black Comedies!
this is a great idea
Spike Lee is my guess for number one
The Old Guard was good!
After Wakanda Forever Coogler may be on the top of all the the list, domestic, worldwide and average.
I love the scary movies but yes Keenan brought more flavor,depth,hilarity,and pushing boundaries to the series. So when they left they were missed and would love it if they did another as long as they don't do the requels shit like if they do a regular sequel that'd be beautiful for them to put their vision to their own series but to do the requels shit that's been done to death for nostalgia no I'm good.
I’m a minute in and I’m picking Tyler Perry, he got the volume and that should equate to butts in the seats
Dahomey, the woman king is going to be crazy. The story of where the myth of the Amazons came from!
Ryan coogler gone shut that shit down in November
Wait, in your favorite actresses, Lupita doesn't make the list? She's so lovable and so talented. I think Cynthia Erivo is also on my list now. Really love her.
Ryan Kugger has to be on this list, for black panther alone
Interesting af
I definitely thought Coogler would’ve been number 1 because of BP, but TP being number one doesn’t shock me.
Early into the video, I think number 1 is gonna be F. Gary Gray because of the Fast and the Furious movie he directed making like over a billion dollars
welp, I was wrong lol
Highest grossing TV show I wanna hear you talking about Game of Thrones
Come November 11 this list is gonna change
I'm probably wrong but I'm going Ryan Coogler or the Director of Get Out (Jordan Peele?) as number 1. Maybe John Singleton 🤔
10. I thought Jordan Peele was Get Out, Us, & Nope?
9. Good for him. He did a string of Silly movies and made some crazy money off of it
8. I'm a little embarrassed that I haven't seen enough Spike Lee Movies. Malcom X is definitely on the list of movies to watch soon.
7. I respect it
6. Only seen undercover brother & roll bounce but respect
5. Haven't seen his movies but I know they're pretty iconic
4. Black Panther & Creed love them both. Heard fruitville station would be too sad for me
3. Yeah Friday is iconic. Didn't like Straight Outta Compton
2. Saw Barbershop & liked Fantastic four 😅 & def liked think like a man
1. Seen a ton of his plays & a few of his movies 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
"Gross Pointe Bake" "Top Ten Comedy movies"
Coogler will top everyone after Wakanda Forever comes out...
I watched till number 5 and remembered Tyler Perry. He might be high up there. And didn’t Ryan coogler do $1 billion with black panther alone? Crazy
I got Ryan Coogler or Spike Lee. That's not just one but 🤷🏾♀️.
Ryan Coogler is my guess at the beginning
Ryan Coogler has to be #1 lol
Ngl you one based on the thumbnail go hard for the shit you ain't know you was gone try bro
Interesting....
Keep your eyes open for the Theo Lacey. New , young and upcoming
I’m guessing Spike Lee would be number one? …
Edit: So I was dead wrong 🤣 number one was so obvious I forgot about him.
F Gary Gray did Be Cool?! I love that movie. I know most people don’t but I thought it was hilarious. Lol
My early guess is Ryan Coogler...that marvel $$$$
Off the dome probably Spike Lee
i agree ...spike lee (early comment)
I’m gonna go with Ryan Coogler
Tony be knowing shit!
Curious about Mario Van Pebbles and his father Melvin Van Pebbles(r.i.p)and the Hughes Brothers
Number 1 gotta be Tyler Perry. Off the strength of all the success with Madea
Ryan Coolger has to be number one off black panther alone and creed
Ryan Coogler Has got to be number one ☝🏾
No better nobody says actresses... Anymore in Hollywood. ACTORS BRO. UNLESRN
Before the year end Ryan Coogler will be #1 and Jordan Peele will be top 7 or 8
R.I.P to this mans son
I genuinely thought F. Gary Grey for #1
Biggest shocker not shocker is that the best seller in Hip Hop is White. In addition the absence of Snoop, Biggie, Dre, etc.
Where can I go to get paid for watching trailers? Lol
You said you'd like to be in a Jordan or Ava movie, say you got that call what kind of role would you like to play?
Just paused video...I think it's Spike Lee....Ok wow I was wrong lol
