You fail by beginning your list with two overrated actors. The other three fit the bill.

You fail again by not being able to come up with a single other underrated black actress, which took me all of one second: CCH Pounder.

Mr. T and the guy who played Geordie LaForge.

Mr. T

[BrianGoldsmith]

Whenever I hear about Pam Grier I always think of Pam from Martin.

Morgan Freeman.

[itsmycock]

Morgan Freeman is routinely recognized as a fine actor. Does not fit the "overrated" theme.

[Smalmslobby]

Alfonso Ribeiro

[br`lorance]

I've seen "Hitchhiker's Guide"... Mos Def is mos definitely not underrated.

[DuePew]

The one I saw was almost unwatchably bad.

[HoniSoniproca]

I remember the House guest appearance also, and I was definitely considering that when including that I didn't care much for him.

I didn't find him very believable. What was his problem again, blind or something? Was just a bit too superficial or something.

Edit: I remember now...he was conscious and couldn't talk. The monologues were dreadful.

[Lunims]

And he was a guest patient on House last year -- very good..

Speaking of House, Andre Bruer was the head of the psych hospital where House was during the mini-movie from the beginning of this past season.

if you have an Oscar nomination and have the pull to get a major studio to finance your own movie. You can if you are Samuel L Jackson. I mean Robert Benigni has an Oscar. Big deal!

[AgowlSown]

Benigni doesn't have anywhere near the pull of Samuel L. Jackson. He's a superstar. And everyone knows he rocks. Snakes on a mother ****ing Plane. No one else could pull that off. As great as Snakes on a Plane was, I still don't think it captures the essence of awesomeness that is Samuel L Jackson.

Now if they renamed the Oscars after him, that would be about right.

Clarke Peters.

[erepsysoulpfbs]

Have we had Drake Tungsten yet? His entire life is a facade - so much so that he's not even black...

Michael Clarke Duncan was perfect in The Green Mile, it was the role of a lifetime for him.

ACK!

[Roker]

Or were you saying he's not underrated?

Bingo

[PVaQlNaP]

I like the goat.

[tmobmobfil]

Clarke Peters.

It's about time somebody mentioned him. He's mother****ing Cool Lester Smooth!

[StarsWorld]

He's so underrated you can't even spell his last name! But I agree, he's kind of underrated, but he was even more underrated after Homicide but before he got his recent somewhat comeback.
