If everybody looked the same, we'd get tired of staring at each other. And if all movies were the same, well, I guess people would read more. But I digress...In my humble (white she-devil) opinion, there is nothing quite like a good "cultural movie night". Who doesn't appreciate a good dramatic performance by Snoop Dogg? Or the quick remarks that are dished out in a barber shop?
Over the years I've seen my fair share, some good (anything with Queen Latifa really), some I wish I could forget (Set It Off - the exception to the aforementioned Queen). Granted these movies are best shared with someone who knows what monkey bread is and who appreciates a good weave when they see it, but we can't all be so lucky. So rather than deprive you of the good times and good laughs, here is a brief collection of quotes and one-liners from some of my favourite movies. (FYI, they are much funnier in person, but this will have to hold you over until you check out the real thing) Don't hate, appreciate...
Bringing Down The House
Did I hear Negro? Nope, no Negro spoken here.
You got me all tied up in the game and the cool points are out the window.
Don't Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In Da Hood
My name is Dashiki. That's Swahili for "doggy-style."
Soul Plane
Sharing is caring, take a wing or a leg and pass it back. One Piece!
Undercover Brother
Excuse me, Tonja, where do you keep the Dickies. Sorry, we don't have any, we're all souled out.
Beauty Shop
You know what, you could be black, white, ghetto past, no ghetto past, ain't nobody using the N word up in here, and no bitches and hoes either, except for the ones that don't tip.
Malibu's Most Wanted
What make you think you know what goes down up in the hood anyway? BET?
I got a PHD. Poser Hater Degree

Love it! I to love to share in a little ethnic bonding with a special person everytime Moniq'ue puts out a new flick.
Having been on Weave Patrol in the past on outings with friends, i have been able to spot a good weave and a bad one (think Britney on MTV Music Video Awards... I mean we can see the track marks) and Gina from Beauty Shop new that it was always a Great day for a Flip and a Curl at Gina's.
Here are a few more points you can add in.
Undercover brother showed us that a black man's quest for good fried chicken is the only way to bring down "the Man".
Soul Plane reminded us that planes can be pimped out too. Remember Fun comes first when flying NWA. So screw your shit on tight and enjoy the flight.
Bringing Down the House showed us that even old white people can use ghetto humour to get through the day. But when it comes to the coloured folk, they are a ruthless bunch that will kick the bulimia out of a white girls ass.
Malibu's Most wanted makes me wonder why I was never cast for that role. I mean seirously. I got sumtin' to say, and I need the world to hear it. I'm a lyricologist. I can rap about anything. Shrink, shrink. Blinkity-blink. Tried to make me think. Wanna go to my sink. And vomit. Clean it up wit' Comet. Earth is my planet. See? I'm the shiznit.
i like life, its a good cereal! welcome aboard
