None of those were really that unexpected to me. I guess I was expecting a more "extreme" unexpected list, like Chris Christie or Rush Limbaugh or something.

bitch I'm taking calls.
Haha. "Turns out, Rush is a Nas fan."

Yeah.. most of the list was either very obvious or not surprising. A couple of decent surprises in there though. With celebs constantly interacting with their fanbase through so much web presence, it's amazing that any of this stuff isn't known to the public at large.

God just went the entire weekend without internet while visiting family in the country. It felt weird being that disconnected. Don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing tho

Is it real gory? Giants eating people just screams gorefest to me and sometimes animes take the gore to the extreme.

Barely gory at all from what I've seen of it and I hate gore.
I had to watch one of his movies. No the hell he isn't. paying a hot chick 1,800 to hang out with him. If I pay a chick 1,800 to hang with me, she will glow with the power of a million suns under a blacklight afterwards.

Drumline was good, fuck ya'll
is even funnier, because Petey Pablo is singing this song called "WHO AM I!?", and since this isn't the mid-2000s, we have no idea

Drumline was a piece of shit. Seeing Nick trying to mean mug while playing the gotdamn drums? Fuck outta here.
Even Reigun can take Nick, I think even sideye from Devo could make him piss himself.
I agree with ViewtifulJC. Fuck ya'll, Drumline is great. Everything else he's in is trash (<3 Christina Milian still), except maybe Roll Bounce. But his role is pretty minor in that.
He's actually a pretty decent host on America's Got Talen though.

Fuckin' "Stomp the Yard" was better than Drumline.

Nick Cannon trying to look tough while he drums. Settle down before you get your snare took.

Roll Bounce was good too
Stomp the Yard only comes alive in those fierce dancing scenes.

I think we found a new topic for the podcast.
Black movies in general are hardship and struggle

There's an exception to every rule. List the black movies over the last half decade, and I guarantee more than 75% of them are about A) Racism in a historical or current context B) The Black urban experience (struggle and hardship in a nutshell). The remaining will be filled up by romantic comedies and melodramatic romances, both of which will often overlap with A and B.
I'm pretty sick of the current state of black films to be perfectly honest. It's the same shit over and over again.

They could afford it! They just ran out.
They ain't got him on tape.
I think we need PartTimeWarrior's judgment on this.

Dont forget Smokey's raggely ass car
And while we're on the subject, the trailer for Fruitvale Station released a few days ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxUG-FjefDk
Doesn't go against the grain, but it definitely looks good.

Sad thing is Animal House shits on every black college movie and that movie is damn near 30 years old

He was blind all along!
Also, it's not post-apocalyptic earth, it's prehistoric. BEFORE EARTH
The screenplay for the film is actually pretty decent. I hate M. Night as much as the next person, but I've always considered writing to be his downfall, and not his ability to direct (although he does manage to get actors/actresses to put in their laziest efforts within his films). So the fact that someone else wrote the story and script is promising.
Seeing how it's an M Night. Shaymalan movie it could literally be anything

It's not the same genre as Animal House, but The Great Debaters is a great black college film. And while on that subject, the list of school related black films becomes almost non-existent if you bar sports or the helping white hand genre
Cooley High is such an underrated black film too!
