The Jokeman Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 Samuel L Jackson won't be appearing so guess his character is serving time for his attempted robbery of MsDowells. Quote
Gugny Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 It would be a miracle if this sequel could possibly suck more than the original. I believe in miracles. Quote

Wacka Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 It was cultural appropriation by Eddie Murphy. The late Art Buchwald had written a similar story. and sued Eddie Murphy. He won. Quote

The late Art Buchwald had written a similar story. and sued Eddie Murphy. He won. Is it considered "cultural appropriation" when done as a parody? If so, doesn't that eliminate all forms of parody. I thought cultural appropriation was taken seriously. And... Can one appropriate one's own culture? ??? Quote
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) My absolute favorite part of the original is the preacher. “He helped Joshua tear down the walls at Jericho. He helped Daniel in the lions den. He helped Gilligan get off the island.... if loving the lord is wrong, I don’t ever want to be right.” Edited December 25, 2020 by Miyagi-Do Karate 1 Quote
BillsPride12 Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 Can't believe we have some folks in here who don't appreciate the original Coming to America. Easily top 5 comedy of all time 3 1 Quote
