  The key is that the movies were being made and people were working. Some were good, some were bad. As long as people are making movie, somebody is gonna make bad ones. The more we make, the more good ones we will get. Hell , everybody cant be a terrible filmmaker.

  Other than "Shaft" and "Sweet Sweetback", and a few others ("Sparkle", I can't say I look forward to these films. I tend to find them cheap in regard to production values (shabby locations, bad lighting and camera works and composition, etc), badly acted with hackneyed plot. I love watching Pam Grier because she's a beautiful black woman, but the acting is so bad in these film. It seems that gifted black filming died during this period and didn't really come back to the mid 1980s with the emergence of Lee's "She's Gotta Have It." There are very few gems that came out the 1970s era of blaxploitation -- and I guess that's why they call it blaxploitation. Now, people enjoy relegating into the realm of "bad cinema," films so schlocky you have to love them anyway.

  Cool Breeze was a good movie. I think it's underrated because it's not one of the more well known blaxploitation flicks. I have a poor, bootleg DVD copy so I'll definitely be picking this one up.

  I always loved that line "THE MAN" do we still have "THE MAN" or is he now "JUST THE WHITE MAN"

  As the intellectual Bell Hooks says we all live in a "White Supremacy-Capitalist-Patriarchy. Were all responsible in some way for perpetuating ongoing oppressive system.

  I didn't really like this one, but I suppose I'll give it another chance.
