J 1 minute ago (edited) My favourite scene was the heart to heart with Stacy and Mike before the Dance. "get you a lil dance, she loves that song by Luther". it was really wholesome and kinda reminded me of something. I just don't know what.
Young Slim wig walked to Shemar Moore wig could run! 😂 also, maybe I'm dirty minded, but the line " remember when it comes to the ladies, Suck Never Chew.." hits different as an adult! 😂😂
As a person born and raised in North Carolina I can fully say we all don’t sound like that 😅but depending on where you from it can go from hood talk to country singer voices real quick lol 😂
My theory is that at the beginning, we are a guest at the wedding or something of the sorts because the talking to the camera only occurs there, the rest of the movie when they leave from the wedding is just regular mandatory hood movie narration
So, the grabbing booty thing, I do love and appreciate your argument. I have to say, the boy grabbed the girls booty and then, got his ass kicked for it! So they showed the action and then showed the punishment for it.
28:00 Now I was born in the year 2000 but growing up it was a game called “Booty Tag” where essentially the boys and girls would go around slapping each others butts. Now I never played it because I knew if I got caught my parents would tear me up. However, as I got older into middle school the girls actually started doing it a lot more to the guys (which would annoy them). By the time i was a sophomore in high school people had pretty much stopped doing that.
Y’all remember “HIDE AND GO GET IT”? where you play hide and seek and the guys would seek the girls and ……yeah I think we get it but as kids we didn’t know any better and yes these were different times kids had too much time on they hands back in 92-2004
My Favorite The Wood Scene 🎬 was When They Were all Riding With Stacey, and Stacey Was Dropping Them off To The Dance 🕺 and Got pulled Over By The Police. The Movie Revolved Around Mike, Rollin, and Slim… But Stacey and Slim Were Stand Outs For Me.
It's so crazy how Malinda Williams (Young Alicia) is actually older than Sanaa Lathan (Older Alicia), Omar Epps (Older Mike), Taye Diggs (Older Roland), and Richard T. Jones (Older Slim)
My favorite scene has to be when Stacy said you want some to and slim said yeah. He said what? Slim said I think so. 😂😂😂 I laugh way too hard every time
They might as well as let Malinda play the role all the way through! Seeing that she was older than all the younger actors! I’m still shocked Malinda was older than she was!
Chile, I so loved this!!! since about 2017, I started looking for YT reviews of tv show that I watch cause many times my circle doesn't like the same things. Even as y'all talked in this review, I talked back. My hunny came in and voiced some opinions to him - so YT didn't get the comment. Oh yea, FIX THE WOOD!!!
Vanity was definitely finer. Man I wanted to be Bruce Leroy in The Last Dragon. Yeah back in the 90s we did the grabbing booty game. Girls were laughing and joking with us when doing it so we thought it was okay. Wouldn't do it in 2023 though. LOL
As a white, somewhat lower class white boy from Oregon, who lives during these times, I have to say... I honestly relate to a lot of this movie which goes to show that growing up can often be similar all over!!!
I always thought mike’s reaction to “you might say something that’ll get you 🔫” was a shocked reaction because I could just be talking and I get shot like what.
I come to ya channel to see y'all view of my fav movies ... And match something that I didn't.... Also helps me stay at peace at work and time fly's by thank y'all
Love you guys content and love this movie and you guys taught me something about the Teddy Pendergrass sample explains why Ahmad said "hey Jerome play some Bobby Womack
I don’t know how it is today because I’m no longer a young adult and I don’t even dance. It seems to me back then slow dancing at the high school dance was how you got to get close to your crush, or how you found your boyfriend/girlfriend. That can’t necessarily happen if everyone just line dances and twerk or whatever. Idk! Nowadays, like they say, youth is wasted on the young.
" Fix The Wood " I've never seen this movie before. Your breakdown of it is excellent as always ❤ Thank You Both. I look forward to your movie breakdowns- very enjoyable 💯🥂
I think he was suggesting that we should talk about where do we go from here. But she definitely did make him make a decision to be in a relationship because he was still in the ejaculation cloud and not thinking straight. But I think he truly wanted to be her man.
@@AxiomAmnesia Just about to start rolling. Thanks Cheri (sorry about the lack of accent, I'm Canadian yet can't figure out the French keyboard 🙄) and Heit! Love the new graphics.
You guys should do a poll on who’s the best coming of age crew in a Coming Of Age movie. Preach, Cochise, Tyrone & Pooter Trey, Ricky & Doughboy The Wrecking Crew Mike, Slim & Roland The Garden Boys The Ones Awreeoh
That’s our mentality here on the west coast. Back then in 86 Jordan wasn’t Jordan yet. So being for North Carolina is some country white boy type shit. It’s only when you get older or have family from the south that we stop viewing the south as country
Apollonia is finer than Vanity. This is the movie of my life. It’s a reminiscent of myself & my crew when we were in junior high & high school. I would to see this movie get coverted into a series just like the Best Man: Final Chapters: Fun Fact: DeAndre Bonds, Malinda Williams & Antwon Tanner were also in Sunset Park. Malinda Williams, Antwon Tanner & Bianca Lawson are eternal teenagers. They’ve been playing teenagers their whole careers. Antwon Tanner is the eternal high school basketball player. He played a basketball player in Sunset Park & Coach Carter.
They had his back for sure. I was raised that you run your fade1 on 1, homies there to make sure you ain't killed and brutalized, but you have to confront yours.
It would been more realistic, if he'd responded like, "l know what a damn gun is, but why I'm gona get shot?" B/c a country boy would know his way around a gun, regardless
But you also got to put in perspective, Mike probably grew up not really being exposed to a lot of thing's. Just the vibe I was getting from his and his mom interaction.
you right …I miss slow dancing with my grandma listing my to “HEARD OT THROUGH THE GRAPE VINE” and what’s that’s o’jays song that go ? “They smile in ya face” ohh what’cha say BACKSTABBERS! I think ? But yeah I miss slow dancing too ❤
14:41 Lol cannot lie, before going into my freshman year in high school we had this program called “bridge” where a lot of freshmen came to school to learn how to navigate the school and build relationships. Long story short 90% of the kids I was in my bridge class with ended up being in my official freshman homeroom and we always found that so funny. 21:34 as a person who does not drink (probably 2-3 times a year) I can attest that when I’m stressed enough I indeed want a shot or two 😅 27:53 Growing up in DC and Baltimore I remember we ended up having those colorful sex bracelets and kids would walk around popping different colors to indicate certain sexual favors smhhhh exactly why I homeschool my child now because we were off the chain. 32:37 It was absolutely warranted to get his ass beat cause he definitely grabbed that girl’s butt. That is assault lol. 38:40 only one of them got punched in the face, so he had dibs 😭😭😭 that’s the wrong way to put it bc she’s not an item but if I’m fist fighting your grown ass brother over you, that’s MY boo. 49:18 I never knew why they did that omg 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂😂 53:03 Nah it’s not how you become a banger, BUT this is 100% HOW you become affiliated 1:01:05 I think he told him bc Mike really is a good lil dude and is not a sucker 🥰
I was born at centennial hospital in Inglewood....and that's where Mike's mom worked... Never referred to Inglewood as 'da wood's ... but 😅Inglewood was always up to no good
This has never been my experience. People just always assumed I was good. No one hung out with me and I was too young looking to even get a yes to a dance. I never went to one. Now I’m too old but look too young. It’s a horrible situation. It’s always the people who don’t want me that will say I’ll find someone. 😑 but I’m in my 30s now and meeting people is virtually impossible. So I gave up. I’ve embraced me being the only one in my life. I don’t relate to any of them. I didn’t have love interests. I spend my time out side of school working and time off inn front of the tv.
Gratitude Ps Peace to Rick Famuyiwa. Pps Dope is a classic film as well. Peace to Stacy (Fam is in The Wood and Dope). Brown Sugar is a massive classic too.
Can I be a guest? I have a different view point that will round out the segment. At 35:28 time stamp: She wanted her brother to protect her honor but she still liked the dude her brother beat up. She wanted guys to come to her respectfully...her bother was a stand in for an at-school-dad
Yaaas ❤❤❤❤❤❤ bruh getting the number was Strategic you had to come correct 👏🏿👏🏿 one time I got a number from from a woman at dollar general that actually was a number to a ponderosa🤭
In Inglewood Mike’s North Carolina hat is the direct gang enemy of the Inglewood bloods. Crips in LA where that North Carolina for the NC. So yea mike was finna get lmao
Fix The Wood!! I'm curious of you guys opinion of how you think Slim turned out regarding his love life! Do you think he'll ever settle down and di d the one?
It's possible, but I see him being very last to do so! It's funny because we are discussing Why Did I Get Married on our other channel (www.youtube.com/@heitcheri) , and it's the same actor as Slim. Richard T. Jones was much nicer in The Wood! 😂😂😂
Stacy was damn near 20yrs old to fight a 12yr old..lol Stacy was like lil dude has heart..lol if his boys would have helped the entire Blood gang would have fought little boys..lol That beat down led to mike getting his first shot of a**

What's your favorite scene from the movie?
My favorite scene was the beatdown Stacey gave homie !!! That was so Jr. High School at the time.
My favorite scene was when Stacy tried to stick up the Conner store
Especially when Mike said “STACY” 😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂 I know right!! I knew there was another way to look at that, but I couldn't put my finger on it!!

They did us Houstonians wrong too with those accents in Jason’s Lyric 😩
Yes!

Yeah like maybe it was the videographer getting some before the wedding footage or something
According to "Dope", Stacey ended up working at the same high school everyone went to as a security guard.
Middle school turned high school
I love that movie!
So, the grabbing booty thing, I do love and appreciate your argument. I have to say, the boy grabbed the girls booty and then, got his ass kicked for it! So they showed the action and then showed the punishment for it.
Yep! 😆
Lmao 😂😂😂that fight scene with Stacey after school is still hilarious to this day I forgot how funny slim and rollin were 😂

It was your mention of the movie Fresh that has me re-watching for the first time in twenty years. What a great film!
I'm a bit irritated that Samuel Jackson didn't call check in his first game vs Fresh. OK. Sorry, I'll wait for you to review the movie. :)
36:59 Gave Mike all the time he needed to “cast the dice”

Any scene with young slim was funny as hell. It always bothered me that they chose that actor for the older him 😂
Young Slim was hilarious! Why don't you like Richard T. Jones? Because of his role in Why Did I Get Married? LOL
@@AxiomAmnesia 1000%
Lol😅
I think it was a perfect cast 😂😂
He played the son on What’s Love Got To With It when Ike beated on him also might change ya mind
I knew I wasn’t the only one who found Sanaa Lathan’s casting off😂
Lol Facts
Right like y’all couldn’t find a grown dark skinned woman to play Mikes gf (can’t think of her name rn)
Honestly they couldve just kept the same girl/woman
Fix The Wood
My favorite scene is the Stacy and Mike fight when Mike says “Naw I think she’s purdy!” also any scene with young Slim he was funny 😂
My Favorite The Wood Scene 🎬 was When They Were all Riding With Stacey, and Stacey Was Dropping Them off To The Dance 🕺 and Got pulled Over By The Police. The Movie Revolved Around Mike, Rollin, and Slim… But Stacey and Slim Were Stand Outs For Me.

It's so crazy how Malinda Williams (Young Alicia) is actually older than Sanaa Lathan (Older Alicia), Omar Epps (Older Mike), Taye Diggs (Older Roland), and Richard T. Jones (Older Slim)
Wow, I didn’t realize Malinda Williams was older than Sanaa Lathan! Malinda looked like a baby!
My favorite scene has to be when Stacy said you want some to and slim said yeah. He said what? Slim said I think so. 😂😂😂 I laugh way too hard every time
I don't know why they didn't just let Melinda be older Alicia. Melinda was 29 at the time they could've just made her look her age.
Fix the wood
That bothers me too, Sanaa Lathan did not sell me on portraying Alicia.
They might as well as let Malinda play the role all the way through! Seeing that she was older than all the younger actors! I’m still shocked Malinda was older than she was!
Too many scenes to choose from. This was a slice of life movie done right.
Glad I found this channel. Thanks for doing my favorite movie

I think the challenges of growing up transcend many differences!
Yes we choose. Just because he likes me does not mean he’s for me. Great show!🔥
I always thought mike’s reaction to “you might say something that’ll get you 🔫” was a shocked reaction because I could just be talking and I get shot like what.
At Sadie Hawkins….the girls ask the boys

I believe Brown Sugar & The Wood should be everybody Top 10 romance movies 🏆
I remember going to Magic Johnson theater to see this in the summertime of 1999. ❤😂
Great break down! Love your channel...yall dive deep. "FIX DA WOOD"

Fun fact: Melinda Williams and Mekhi Phifer has a child together. Maybe not new news but I would've never connected those two.
I think they were actually married. I remember her talking about their relationship on a radio interview years ago.
Yes, their son is an adult. 21/22 now

"What about me and you" sounds like he wants to be together to me. Maybe women view it differently than men.

Here in Dallas we grew up with older siblings get involved in fights

Shout out to Rachel from Family Matters at the wedding. Fix the wood.
