I watched Are We There Yet? last night and I can't for one second believe that he used to be 'AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted' and he would treat you like a goddamn stepchild.
This just made me sad.

I guess everyone sells out eventually. I guess this coupled with the fact he directed a Color Me Badd video lets it come full circle.

I know that dreck cuts across all racial lines, but the minstrel show that makes up 82% of entertainment fronted* by blacks these days is pretty disgraceful.
*By "fronted," I mean "headlined" or "starring." I say this rather than "produced" because I'm sure that a ton of this crap is produced by cynical, white businessmen aiming directly at white kids in the suburbs who think they're down because they kick it to Soul Plane.

If you have a movie aimed at black people that also happens to co-star Tom Arnold, The Man has officially won.

If you have a movie starring Tom Arnold, period, you know that Satan has offcially won.
That's not theologically correct, but you get the drift.

I saw this movie Happy Endings at the theater the other day, and much to my shock, Tom Arnold actually ACTED fairly well.
That's right, ACTED.

Ice Cube isnt that great of an actor, other then Barbershop but shit to defend ya my homie its sad to think sum1 who was NWA now making PG-rated movies. People change I know, but shit this is Ice Cube. The same can be said bout Eddie Murphy and his recent string of bad, bad family movies. If they were good then it be aight but the truth is the family movies they have been pushin out suck. So I guess Eddie in a way sold out too sadly

Is this true? I had no idea. I can forgive him for Are we There Yet. I can even forgive him for Triple X: State of the Union. But this? This is a dealbreaker.

I'm not denying that Are We There Yet? Sucked ass but exactly how "Gangsta" can we really expect cube to keep it now? I mean he's been a millionaire for quite some time now.
