Friend of mine Netflixed Dolemite a few months ago.
I don't recall anything extra except for a few interviews with Rudy Ray Moore and a few other people, and some trailers. The movie kinda gave a bad name (or should I say "even worse name") to blaxploitation anyway, since it didn't have the little bit of extra class that Shaft had. I mean being the DIRECT inspiration for the 'gangsta movement (in the on-disk interviews a few of the current gansta performers say so, if I remember correctly) may not be something to be proud of.
