We need a girlfriends movie. We need our sex in the city damnit
This is my pet peeve of Hollywood. Stop telling blacks to get their own and when we do y’all shut it down! Our Kind Of People is another show that was screwed over! I hope Kelsey Grammar comes through bc WE NEED THIS MOVIE!!!
I really liked that show
I went in deep with Our Kind of People and just knew that a second season was coming. It was so good!
I’m so glad Our Kind of People was not renewed. Great cast but It had a horrible story line. I supported the show but It was painful to watch. By episode 3 I knew it would not be renewed
This is what Tyler Perry is doing and that's why he refuse to allow whites to help him. He want to build his OWN but black people talk MORE sh*t about it
@@thedcgirl202 I know everything isn’t for everyone but our shows need at least 2 seasons to let the characters develop. Worse YT shows are renewed even if they suck
Yes!! What's stopping Kelsey Grammar from selling it on Paramount+ They're rebooting his sitcom, Frasier on Paramount+ and The Game is already in its 2nd season on Paramount+ and doing well. Girlfriends deserves a proper ending. We need closure.
I think Mara is holding it up. I’ve heard her say in an interview that she wants a Sex and the City budget and that’s just delusional.
@@bronzegoddess3186is it delusional or is it asking for what you deserve. She’s been in the game for over 20 years.
@@bronzegoddess3186 Very!
@@Dre_Overmars No, it's delusional. Girlfriends wasn't, isn't, and will never be the GLOBAL phenomenon and awards juggernaut that Sex and the City was, is, and will always be.
The Girlfriends Movie, at the theater, could make so much money.
Lailah i was not expecting you to drop so much tea. I was not reeeeadyyy.... 🐸 🍵
Me either 😊
Right!!!
This show was def my favorite n I was mad as hell when it ended . Thanks for the tea ❤️
After Jill left is when I started to watch it progressively less and less. Season 7 (which was Girlfriends' first season on its successor network, The CW, following UPN's eventual shutdown) was mediocre at best...
Yes, I need closure!! This was one of THE BEST sitcoms of ALL TIME.
I just want my closure. Did Joan and Aaron get married? Did Aaron make it out ok?Did Joan and Toni end their feud. Oh my how is William, Monique and the baby? Did the Arthuress stick to writing the neighborhood blog or did she finally get her book writing grove back. Jabari will it be the same face or a new one? How’s Mr. Switalman? Does he have a new wife? Hey Darnell! And Lynn how’s the music career? I need answers!
That’s alright ladies. I’m finna win the next billion dollar lottery and I got y’all. New series and movie will be done! We fin’ to do this! I’m speaking this into existence damnit❤❤❤
They are definitely worth the price. I never watched any sex and the city shows or movies because it seemed like a bunch of old ww. Girlfriends was the show my sisters and I would play the characters. Everyone always wanted to be Toni. 🤣🥰
Ooh, yall was scandalous. I was Joan n evil maya
At this point I wish we could do a kickstart or something!! That way she could do the movie her way!!! I wish Hollywood seen the power in the movie!! That show was epic!!!!
Yes, Girlfriends definitely needs a better ending.
Tyler Perry gone ahead and help us get this movie please!
I pray he sees your comment. He’s the perfect person to do this one.
Yes and no. He would be PERFECT to fund it but he rushes a LOT of projects. I'm already nervous about Sister Act 3. 😬
Wait he’s doing SA3?! Idk how I feel about that. But I agree, Tyler Perry came to mind. As many corny shows as he has still on the air, I wonder why she never made similar money moves. She should have her own production company by now (unless that’s not what she wants). But at least she’d be able to do what she wanted.
Damn! 😂 I just typed the same thing.
He better not put them in some crazy ratty lacefronts...oh wait they all look like they have good hair anyway...carry on
I want a reboot so bad
It was definitely PR that Kelsaey was speaking because if he truly cared, he could find the funding or fund his self.
Yes we need a reboot or a movie. Season 8 of girlfriends wasnt even finished. We need Tyler Perry and Kelsey grammer to combine forces.
Tyler don’t need to touch this imo
Absolutely no Tyler Perry
@@ItsJustTuesday I agree
Idky ppl give Tyler Perry so much credit. His shows/movies are poorly written, with bad acting. What I must say though, is when I see some of his actors in other shows/movies, they can actually act. So, maybe it's just his writing 🤔. So, PLEASE don't touch this one TP🤷🏾♀️
Can you imagine the hairstyles if TP gets involved?? 😬
I’m still upset we haven’t gotten at least one movie or something to give us an update on the characters. It’s actually bothersome to me we gotten nothing for this amazing show but they keep throwing Sex and The City in our faces a show I’ve never even watched an episode of. It’s something that still bothers me to this day
I just started watching girlfriends. It's classic. Girlfriends are so worth every penny.
Weren't they able to make a Veronica Mars movie through some kind of crowd funding? I wonder why they didn't try that. It don't need to be a big budget studio movie that's released in theaters. I would've settled for a quality produced TV movie.
I think it’s a matter of the rights being unavailable as well.
Okay!!!
She should link up with Tyler Perry and get it done
How in thee world did other sitcoms get a reboot but not Girlfriends? Girlfriends is a popular show, still on streaming platforms and there’s still a huge demand for it after all these years being off air. Girlfriends didn’t get the proper closure it rightfully deserved. There should be no excuse at this point as to why Girlfriends cannot be revived. I’ll take either a reboot hell, I’ll even settle for a movie that ties up all loose ends on Girlfriends. We the people need to make this to happen, our black community needs this for the culture. Give me over a billion dollars and I’ll invest to have a movie out on Girlfriends with a huge promotion layout and if the movie does really well and it’s a huge success, let’s talk reboot on TV. I’m putting it out there.
The tea 🍵 was hot today. You did your good thang👏💯🔥
Ah must agree! She did her thang today. Look at u Lailah ❤
If they can reboot that 70s show they can give us our girlfriends back
We need to fund it ourselves or figure out a way to have Tyler Perry sponsor it-silently. They could use the Girl’s Trip movie as a benchmark-it made $140.9 million at the box office and it cost $19 million to make (a 7:1 return on spend).
The first Sex and the City movie had a budget of $65 million and made $418.8 million. So the SATC movie made 3 times more than Girl’s Trip and basically saw a 6:1 return on spend.
I don’t think enough people care about that show anymore to warrant a $65 million budget. I think that’s what Mara wants. Maybe Netflix will see the numbers and offer them something for a movie deal or maybe a black Golden Girls type of show. None of them are really doing any mainstream acting right now. Blackish is over for Tracee. So…
I would love to see a movie!!! They so deserving of a proper send off.
After watching the Best man Series on Peacock, in a business sense that was a great idea to do a limited series instead of a movie maybe this show and future reboots should follow
The Game in it's second season of it's second reboot. So it's definitely possible and doable.
Tyler Perry may have a home for the Girlfriend's Movie on his studio
Welcome back girl miss you merry Christmas!🌲
I really hope and pray someone picked this movie up and see the value in it because I think it would do big numbers I really do I love all the young ladies character and I really want to see how everything end
Love Is was such a good show. Had it not been for Salim Akil's scandal in 2020, we would've had the chance to see season 2. I miss the show. 😩🥴😒😔
@teddy, I was wondering what happen to the show. What did Salim do?
@@its_april1 He was allegedly having an affair with a woman for years & she claimed that he was abusive towards her. So, when she came out with it, OWN canceled the show after first, renewing it.
Man we need Tyler Perry to fund this movie asap… I need closure 😊
Noooooo. Will Packer would be better. Tyler will NOT pay the creator what she deserves. He won't even hire writers and pay them what he is supposed to.
Tyler Perry mistreats his staff! And won’t give anyone else a chance at directing! There aren’t many black directors in the industry he had an opportunity to fill that gap and give his crew a chance to direct but he won’t!
I'm wondering if they do a reboot of Girlfriend's, would Jill be on it🤔. I loved her acting, & her character on the show.
I haven't even watched the video yet, BUT...
I will say I spent the past 2 days binging The Best Man: The Final Chapters, and I know many others have too. If we (the audience) still have the interest in these stories after 20+ years, they need to get the GIRLFRIENDS: The Movie done!!!
I still care!! And so many of us still do
Ok! I'll be back with my opinion after I actually watch
Joan and William have to have a double wedding or something. Or maybe aBig Willy will marry Joan.
William is married and his wife was expecting when it got cancelled.
I didn't know the Game was a spinoff of Girlfriends
I think that she is right, pay what you would pay your Caucasian producer. The girls are entitled to their equal share. We are very talented.
What is Tyler Perry's excuse and Kelsey Grammer's excuse not rebooting Girlfriends or doing a movie??? How does the game keep getting revived but girlfriends never have??? It's just baffling.
The Game was never that good of a show to begin with lol
I hope how well the Best Man Final Chapters has been received will bode well for Girlfriends finally getting a movie. I actually hope they go the limited series route too
It's one of my favorite shows
I see in the comments to have Tyler Perry find the movie...well that's not going to happen that's not the door Tyler chose 🧐
Not the agenda nor the narrative they have for Tyler
Name ONE BLACK RE-BOOT, ill wait!!
Fresh Prince of Bel Air ~
BEL👑AIR on Peacock
The Game was re-booted, Wonder Years was rebooted to an all black cast
@@sassk7443 Wonder years???
Raven
Proud family
Perhaps Tyler Perry's studio will be a good option.
25-30 mil is more reasonable and for the second film, go bigger. Sex and the City was on HBO for yeeeeaaaaars. I do feel Girlfriends could compete and do quite well but let’s be real. That budget is toooo high.
I get it! YESTERDAY'S PRICE IS NOT TODAY'S PRICE!
Cuz I would be pissed if they came back with some BS because they didn't have the "right budget".
I will continue to hold out hope. Whenever it happens i WILL BE THERE. Those are my girlfriends fr in my head lol
MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄
I'm up wrapping gifts last minute. Smh
I'm Here after watching the game reboot on paramount. I'm excited
Loving all the black greatness today!
Can we get Tyler Perry to help? Damn.
If they need the funding how much let’s make it happen
Where is Tyler at ?
Somewhere selling out 🙄. Says he for the ppl but is he really … he seems like the type that says what’s in it for me . But I could be wrong .
@@Me-gi8pp its "the people" OUR people who keep coming for Tyler and dont support him smh. We criticize
GoFundMe? Kickstarter?
Ok Tyler perry. Kenya Burris here’s your chance to fund a movie that’ll be very successful in the black community. I would love to see a girlfriends movie.
I wonder if she’s considered bringing this to Tyler Perry 🤔
Mara isn’t making any sense. She’s literally had a show on OWN and you’d think you could link up with Tyler Perry and use his studios to film the movie. Am I wrong?
She could just do the movie on a streaming app sense people don't want to fund it
I want this movie !!! And TONI CHILDS BETERBBE INBIT!!!
All I have to say is TYLER PERRY STUDIOS
Tyler Perry get on it! Maybe he'll invest 👀
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Mara is delusional if she thinks ANYONE is going to give Girlfriends a $50-60 million budget for the film. I love [the first six seasons of] Girlfriends, but it wasn't, isn't, and will never be the GLOBAL phenomenon, ratings hit, or awards juggernaut that Sex and the City was, is, and will always be.
Where is Tyler Perry, Spike Lee, or Will Smith?
mara should be wealthy..... but we need to help her financially a go fund me for it or indi go go
Love this
I wonder if she has thought about teaming up with Tyler Perry to put the movie together and release it.
Curtis Jackson where you at? Gone make that good investment!
I loved gf. I’m sure the movie would do great.
Idk who is not backing this project with all these black billionaires we have! Maybe with the success of The Best Man Final Chapters that’ll help as a pitch
Why can't Tyler Perry help with this? We got black Hollywood in Atlanta
I call Bullshit on Mara with this decision.
In my opinion its About the fans.
Mara has made enough money through her projects to fund a Girlfriends movie or at least like Best Man and do a limited series.
I honestly think thats why her other projects aren't blasting off like Girlfriends.
Girlfriends was/is such a treasure to Our Community. She can do it independently and it Will excel.
Just like TP built his own studio bc he was tired of Hollywood taking advantage and him wanting his own, we need to pull together and fund our own 💩 and stop making Hollywood those big bags and begging for our stories to b told and then telling us what we want to see.
Just like WB holding up Friday, the movie concept Cube brought to them but they wont greenlight another film. And in doing so we lost some gr8 talents in Pop, D-Bo, AJ.
Trust, they would fund Girl Friends if it put these black women in a negative light.
Reboot and then movie!!!!
How is the game a spin off
I wonder if 50 cent would help
Hi edagdwg god bless her for sharing the truth about why not there a enough black actors to help make it happen stop talking about it do something about it be real Linda j. Peace
But Tyler Perry ?
50 -60 million ummmmmm
Call Tyler Perry.
