What The Hell Was Oprah, Cuba Gooding, Jr, & Janet Jackson Thinking?
Posted on March 11, 2009 12:00 PM
Clay Cane over at BET posted this funny commentary on black actor's and their questionable choices to collect a paycheck. Check it out below.
We've all had those moments where we sat through a two hour movie and said, "Why did they do that? Did they read the script?" Well, check out some of the worst film catastrophes from your favorite bloggers across on the web.
Star from Stay Tuned says:
Cuba Gooding Jr. in Snow Dogs! I'm all for children's movies, but that flick definitely makes the list for one of the worst movies of all time. He tried too hard to be funny and hasn't fully recovered yet. However, I liked him as Nickey Barnes in American Gangster (although it was a small part) so I'll keep hope alive for Cuba!
Runteldat from Entertainment Spotlight says:
Janet Jackson in Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married? -- in the scene that was supposed to be a tearjerker, Janet was about as convincing as her brother in a self-esteem competition. What happened to the kid actor with all the chops on Good Times? Hopefully Mrs. Gordon still doesn't own an iron.

Gyant, Blogger/Social Critic at GyantScoop.com says::
Everybody who knows me knows that I love me some Oprah. But I got to say that out of all her movies she's starred in--I could bust her in the head with a Gyant pillow for making Beloved. Oprah's trying to get her negro spiritual on and we're all looking at the screening thinking, "Why the hell is Oprah playing in the dirt?"

Gyant, you forgot a movie dawg...I mean I love this movie too, but there is a scene in "Belly" that was so unbeliveable that even I was like "who the fuck approved this scene"...The part where the "Dun Dada" Ox, was str8 capping the goons who broke into his home with infre red scopes and shit...He was laying them out 1 by 1...Dude killed like 20 dudes before he was killed by a female that basically jumped down like 2-3 flights of stairs in some 3 inch fucking heels to slash his throat....BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! LET'S GET REAL.......I loved Belly, but that part always stuck out like a sore thumb and who ever approved that part to be in the movie (director) needs to be smacked
^^^^^watchu yalkin bout that can happen!! Stop bein sexist: Ladies can b killerz 2! Belly was the top 10 best movies of all time!
Who the hell is Cuba Going Jr? Gotdamn you and your typographical errors! What kinda blogger are you?
@ sol....Nigga you just plain stupid....How in the hell can a female jump down 3 flights of stairs in some 3 inch heels nigga, with a perfect stance at that..Nigga, she didn't even plop or bounce when she dropped....GTFOH!!!!
Wow it must be a slow news day because this blog is so unnecessary.
WTF is dis? dis ain't hip-hop! dis bullshit, all the movies old as hell, should posted this THEN not NOW! SMH IN DISBELIEF!!
Clo-fresh you have a point....but unbelievable stuff like that happens all the time in movies!!! but that does stand out!
@ Clo-fresh
totally agree with you, and another thing that I didn't like about that movie was t-boz's acting, she tryed WAY too fuckin hard to be emotional in that flick.
You cats are missing this biggest BS about that movie......where the HELL are the W-2???????????????So let me get this straight...these dudes are selling MAD drugs...Robbing MAD people...crazy cribs...crazy cars...jewels...the whole nine and no front companies or BS jobs to clean the money?????Yet RIght....How you gonna convenince me that these niggas pay straight cash for everything and the FEDs aint BEEN locked them up....Nigga you cant buy a million dollar house cash....Regardless of what you see in the movies...like my dude Stringer said in The Wire..."They use your money against you, that strong purchase gonna come back to bite you on the ass son.."
The Dun Dada scene was stolen right out of Scarface *yawn* Anyway Gyant you are seriously a stupid idiot with nothing better to write about. These movies came out years ago. Second they all have more money and fame than you ever will with this hate filled column of yours.
Just because you don't like them doesn't mean there are people who agree with you. These people have plaques, oscars, emmy's and golden globe's. What do you have? Seriously this is the best you can write?
