Who is going to be seeing this upcoming comedy staring Eddie Griffith Jr., Dave Chapelle, and Denise Richards?

Yeah, overall it won't be a Royal Tenenbaums, or maybe even a Austin Powers, but come on -- no good?

- Undercover Brother looses control of his oversized classic luxury car, does a 720, while holding his drink at the center of gravity to avoid spillage, then stops the car perfectly parallel parked. Follows up with, "Ain't no thang."

- Denise Richards catfighting under a shower nozzle.

- "You mess with the fro, you got to go."

- Underco...

Okay, so those were really the only funny parts. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

I'm still not laughing man!!!! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/wink.gif

And that shower nozzle probably has more talent than that cardboard cut-out Denise Richards!

I think I am the only one who thinks that this movie looks great. Oh well, I can deal with that.

"Blackness confirmed."

I found this part to be funny, but I doubt I'll see this one. Looks a little too stupid.

I dunno about this one...Eddie Griffin has talent, but I'm still having a hard time forgiving him for FOOLISH and DOUBLE TAKE.

I might have checked this out on video, but that was before the studio decided to put a shill on these boards saying stuff like, "gee guys, I just heard that this really funny movie is coming out...here's the web site (blah blah blah). Thank god JoBlo picked up on it. I hate shit like that, and I will boycott this movie like you wouldn't believe.

I'd rather sit through "Hope Floats" than watch this piece of shit.

I really liked Foolish. Eddie Griffith is my favorite stand-up comedian. He played at the USF special event center, and had the auditorium balling with laughter. Later we saw him out, and the guy is chill as hell, and totally approachable. A friend of mine talked to him, and praised him for his show (Malcom and Eddie). She had Eddie mania for a couple months after that, and actually wrote the network telling them how much she loved the show.


Now, I'll admit, this doesn't look like another Tenenbaums, but I can't get anything but fun vibes from the previews.


And I don't see the point of boycotting the movie because of studio plants, because you probably don't even know what other movies this studio is putting out. Besides, other studios do much ruder things than what that dude did. cough*Lucasfilm*cough
