Whether you’re boycotting Cupid’s flower fest or cuddling up with your significant other, you can’t go wrong keeping these DVDs within arms reach this weekend. (If you hate Valentine’s Day this list may be more your speed.)

10) She Hate Me (2004)
Anthony Mackie gets paid to impregnate a group of lesbians, two of which are his former fiancé and her lover.

9)Mo Betta Blues (1990)
An oldie but goodie, Spike Lee made us all want to have sex on a hotel balcony.

8 ) Brown Sugar (2002)
I think Mos Def and Latifah had more chemistry than the Diggs and Lathan, but it’s worth a spin.

7) I Think I Love My Wife (2007)
If you’re gonna cheat on your wife, it might as well be with Kerry Washington. (Chris Rock gives great relationship advice as well.)

6) The Wood (1999)
Sage advice: “When it comes to females, suck, never chew…”

5) The Best Man (1999)
If you sleep with your boy’s woman, don’t write a book about it!

4) Boomerang (1992)
Eddie Murphy is an ad exec that gets turned out by Robin Givens and turns to Halle Berry for comfort. Lucky guy. (R.I.P Eartha Kitt)

3) Jason’s Lyric (1994)

A nude Jada pinkett rolling around in the grass is a definite highlight but Treach torturing fools might be a mood killer.

2) Love and Basketball (2000)
Ladies, play strip basketball with your man and he’ll forget all about All Star Weekend.

1) Love Jones (1997)

Still the standard bearer for urban romance, Theodore Witcher’s only film was sexy, smart and real with one of the best soundtracks/scores around.

    Some people boycott Valentine’s Day. Some of these flicks are put in there for them. Love ain’t always pretty, ie “She Hate Me” But have fun today whatever you do:)

    BOOMERANG – One of my favs!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/thegman42/ thegman42

    Love Jones is the movie that started my writing of poetry.

    Gotta love the thought of chocolate after that.

    G.

    SHE HATE ME IS A GREAT MOVIE I LOVED IT NOW I THINK I LOVE MY WIFE ON THE OTHER HAND IS A MOOD KILLER

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/blackdiamond184/ blackdiamond184

    These are good choices but my favorite would have to be “Out of Sight” with George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez. She is a federal marshall and he is a bank robber and they end up hooking up. It is a must see movie
