    ou konn sa mwen trouver ki drole? tout lot nation ke yo en retard ke nou yo toujou pran haitien pou imbecile.

    c’est sure et certain ke mind game pral rentrer yon mago sou tete haitien, tout simplement paske yo smart. E m rete kwe ke li pap trop facile pou yon film haitien ta traverser nan n’importe peyi en afrik pou li ta fe succes, a part arnold antonin ak kek documentaire ki pa menm yon feature, ki pa pote menm interest.

    mwen menm, anonymat, peersonnellement mwen te fe contact ak kelke mezon de distribution africain ke mwen pa gen droit citer, yo declare m kareman yo pap ka distribuer yon film haitien sou marche africain an paske li pap facile. Alors nou konprann sa m vle di. M tande van vicker ak gazman te nan yon film haitien, mwen ta renmen yon moun explike m ki success sa te fe en afrik.

    promote mind game pap regle yon merde nan evolution cinema haitien. Au contraire, terner yap terner cinema haitien. jusk’ici m pa gen anyen contre geginald lubin, he’s doing his job, congratulations, but pou m ta satisfait se jan haitien ap fe chien nan pied van vicker an se konsa pou yo ta fe reginald lubin tou pou m ta alez. pou reginald lubin ta al en afrik pou se peye pou yo ta peye pou yo fe foto ak li… la a m tap santi ke promotion en marcher.

    Frantz dsign? kote w jwenn ak awards sa wap fe epi pou yon moun patisipe fok li peye $50 en money order an? c’est du jamais vu ca… is it a smart way to make money or you really wanna help the haitian cinema? m ta swete ke w gen plus info, and then repenser sa wap fe an. koman w imajine w ke se pa yon film festival se selman yon awards stuff pou moun lan peye pou li patisipe, et en plus ou di ke ou gen sponsors. danm!!!

    reginald lubin se youn nan actor ki plus smart and most talented nan industry cinema haitien, m pa etone m de effort, sa se li menm.

    mwen menm avek min game, mwen espere ke reginald lubin a rive en afrik la fe yo peye pou fe foto ak li tou. men gon ti problem, moun ki former tankou nou menm haitien, surtout yon moun kou reginals, pap desann nan nivo sa pou lap fe fans li peye pou poser ak li… se pou sa nou t’al lekol.
    n’ap fe awards pou cinema haitien epi a cote n’ap desann valeur li.

    please… please… instead penser pou cinema haitien an pito. temps wap pedu ak kob yo, fe sa pou yon film haitien pito oubyen fe yon africain fe sa pou ou en afrik pito, koz we were born smart.
    proud to be the difference

    Haïti-Cinéma: Rex Théâtre et ciné Triomphe, les préoccupations de l’Etat
    Posté le 19 novembre 2009

    Le ministère de la Culture a procédé à l’acquisition du Rex Théâtre et se propose de réhabiliter le ciné Triomphe qui est rebaptisé centre culturel du Champs de mars, a-t-on appris.

    Interrogée ce jeudi lors d’un point de presse sur la politique gouvernementale en matière cinématographique, de la sauvegarde des différentes salles de cinéma, le ministre de la Culture a répondu que des dialogues vont être entamés avec l’Association haïtienne des cinéastes (AHC).

    Cependant, pour ce qui est du rachat par l’Etat des principales salles qui ont fermé, l’on peut dire que ce n’est pas à l’ordre du jour. L’accent est mis sur la réhabilitation du ciné Triomphe qui devient le Centre culturel du Champ de mars, la remise en marche du Rex Théâtre racheté par l’Etat haïtien depuis quelque temps.

    Reynald Delerme, réalisateur et producteur, qui assistait à la conférence a confirmé à HPN l’ouverture de sa nouvelle salle de cinéma à Carrefour, au sud de Port-au-prince. Il a aussi annoncé la création de plusieurs associations haïtiennes de cinéma aux Etats-Unis….

    nice interview though – i always thing wrong of this guy but somehow i still give him credit for what he’s doing now in our community. good luck with the award show and show people that you can do something different

    Frantz Design ase achte figi lot nasyon, supote industri ayisien an. Why don’t you support the Haitian movies industry instead of supporting the African’s industry. The Africans don’t care about Haitian movies. They would never support the Haitian movies. The Haitian movies industry would never become huge because of people like you. Haitian actors, directors and promoters need to stick together, therefore we can take haitian’s movies to the next level. I don’t think african’s movies are better than haitian’s movies. Van Vicker is not the greatest actor in the world. We have a lot of good haitian actors out there that can do the same or even better than Van Vicker’s act. Give these Haitian actors work to do instead of giving them to African actors. I hope you learn your lesson mr. Design.

    B-roll, I agry with you about the fact that Frantz Design kissing up a$$ africain movie industry instead of helping his own haitian industry, I think the africain industry dont care about the haitian movie, look my haitian people I think it is time to get up and support our own culture not somebody else cultures like i see frantz design is hustler around to go to Africa. Like B-roll said the Mind Game going to make a lot of money just because there is some africain in it, LOOK MY HAITIAN POEPLE STOP BEING IGNORANT SUPPORT UR OWN PRODUCT, ESPECIALLY FRANTZ DESIGN

    GOOD JOB ITS TIME POU NOU KA MONTRE LOT NATION SA NOU KA FE MEZANMI SE SA KI KA MONTE CINEMA NOU AN PLUS RESPEKE……

  • b-roll

    @suvenes blanc: ou decu anpil entant ke yon director oubyen yon actor actif nan industry an. LOT NATION AP VIN MONTRE NOU SA YO KA FAIT OUBYEN NOU PRAL MONTRE YO SA NOU KA FAIT?

    pran sens sa w di a byen epi gade koman bagay yo ap deroule. Mete film pa w la nan yon store a $8 epi film pa africain an a $20, se pa africain an y’ap pran, paske prop frere w fe marketing pou yo isit la.

    gade kijan wap detwi tete ou san w pa konnen, gade kijan Franyz Dsign ak anpe lot mete yon lader yo few monte epi le w anle yo retire li anba w.

    Nou panse nou smart? nou poko menm ka fe prop peyi nou renmen nou epi se lot peyi ki devan nou nou bezwen fe we nou. Sak fe m di yo devan nou se paske yo pa rejte prop bagay yo pou PA W.

    danm!!!!!!!! mezanmi, sa dure anpil pou w Haitien

    bay yon grenn rezon pou yon moun ta rayi frantz Dsign? swiv jan li pale, gade fierte li mete ak assurance nan sa lap di yo, pa gen moun ki kont li… I think his doing his job, but at the same time nou afraid that nou pa perdu cinema nou an.

    une fois li foure tet li ds des choses li vin yon target, e tout moun gen pozisyon pa yo… reginald lubin jwe nan yon film pa vle di ke se isit la pou film lan vin promoter, li dwe promoter isit la TOU, i bet you film sa pa fait bri en afrik konsa, paske reginald lubin pase de prezantasyon isit la, se en Afrik pou film nan al promote pou yo ka konn Reginald en Afrik tou. pou kek peyi en afrik ka apresye talent li tou paske li gen talent, tout haitien net en general respekte et bay reginald valeur li, epitou konbyen kob yo peye regilald pou film sa??

    A koz de tout haitien sa yo li gen deye li, si-m t reprezantan reginald, se $USD 150.000 m tap chaje pou li ta paret point figu li paske li merite plus, but kom se ti pov yo ye, m tap pral anba la ak yo, loll,

    sit back, get some popcorn and let people ki konnen pale tande, san fanatism, san moun pa interceder. Frantz Dsign ka fe yon bagay serieux pou cinema haitien, nou rekomande ke li ede nou pa lot nation, du moins si FRANTZ DSIGN KONNEN YON INTEREST NAN PROMOTE CINEMA HAITIEN AN ISIT LA KE NOU PA KONNEN, PLZ BAY YON INTERVIEW, METE NOU NAN LUMIERE, PARTAGER LI AK NOU, OTHERWISE, TRAVAY POU PATRIE W F.D

    BON TRAVAY, ANYWAY!!!! MWEN M TOUJOU APRANN RENMEN EFFORT MOUN EVENTHOUGH LI PA NAN AVANTAJ MWEN

  • Patricko

    if you guys are blaming frantz design you gotta blame reginald lubin as well. Reginald played in an african movie because he’s trying to get paid. Frantz design promotes an african movie because he’s trying to get paid.

    Tout moun se de lajan yo ye, ni frantz design ni reginald lubin yo tou de se metye yo yap fe epi yap viv sou profesyon an. don’t blame them. si haitien yo tap fe bon story yo pa tap janm achte fim afriken….

    mesye se pa diskisyon an kap fe bagay yo mache… an nou tout checke pwoblem la epi nap vini ak solisyon an.

    thanks movie lakay, b roll and everybody who cares about the haitian cinema

  • b-roll

    PATRCIKO, m pa konn pou reginald, but m pa sure ke ou te vle di ke se profession frantz design non, m pa definitivman ret kwe ke promouvoir des events se yon profession…bref

    jusk’ici, m dakor ak point ou etabli yo wi. Mwen m pre pou m ede, so ann met cinema haitien an nan yon lot nivo pou moun ka stop buying african movie. yo ka achte li wi, librement, men se pap paske pa haitien an pa bon.

    anyway, fe travay la mache ansanm

  • ricot bon bagay

    frantz design mon cher thank you u keep ur word tou moun n vini jan w te di ya .nap fe bagay yo mache

  • Fanm Paw

    Bon cher B-Roll,ou se yon vrai haitian ,ou chita deriere computer po kache po ou critik ,Reginald Lubin paske li fe yon film avek african,yo di Frantz Desing ap promote film african li bliye nation li.Ou menm ki sa ou fe po peyi dapre mouin ou pa fe anyien.Ki sa sa ap change nan vi ou, si yon lot a promote film li vle ,tou moun granmoun..Se langue ou kap kraze haiti..Vivre et laissez vivre …

  • b-roll

    @ fanm paw: m pap okipe w tande! paske m we w pa pran sens sam di yo

  • MARK LOUIS

    Well i bet you the African pay promotions fee. Its time for you guys stop being a free loader. remember Frantz has the radio. although its and internet radio it could be very powerful. (voice) for those whose in communications you know this is why a radio license is not easy to get. I guest if you Directors OR FILM MAKERs out there start PAYING PROMOTIONAL FEES. People like Frantz Design, Movie Lakay, Bel film, will have more interest to push the Haitian market. I think one most important thing that is needed in the Haitian movie industry is marketing. because the African is no better than the Haitian. they sounds are the worst. But they are following Rules and Protocols.
