Have a Nice Day? Attn Hollywood: You've beaten this cliche into the ground. Please cease and desist.

The cliche of the hip black character teaching the dopey white character how to dance is no longer funny.

Martin Lawrence, Chris Rock, and Will Smith: I'm looking in your direction.

Thanks.

While we are at it, black people making fun of white people was new and funny back in 1992. Oh, and speaking of missing the boat by a decade. McDonald's: Fire your ad agency before someone assassinates them.

That is all, for now.

Add to that the standard charachter conventions of the 'Magic Negro' (see Bagger Vance or Morgan Freeman), white people (most often a woman) protector/security blanket Black guy with herculean strength and sub-human intellect driven by primarily by emotion, 'Smart brutha with a really bad generic hairstyle' (aka Poindexter), street wise Black kid/teen who wears Chucks or Jordans but really turns out to be soft like melted chocolate inside, and please for once let the white people run further than 10' or 4 steps without falling down/tripping/fainting or generally collapsing in some way.

It's a real and old term from the very beginnings of film toward a common convention used in film and books too.

How about making this list a little shorter....

Hollywood, we are sick of *.*, so please change or expect your box office numbers to fall even farther. And no, your revenue is not down because of people downloading your movies either, even thought I am sure you will pass it off as such.

I didn't forget him I just didn't name him or all the millions of others examples of as much.
He also falls under the protector/security blanket model too.
It's so played out and ridiculously common.

Jessie Jackson hates white people.

Al Sharpen hates white people.

Black Rights Groups and Feminists are the worst thing for any culture ... they are the exact thing they are bitching about, for example ... if Group A has more privledges than group B, group B starts an equal rights movement ONLY its not about equal rights, its about increasing the privledges of Group B with no regard for Group A, and then Group B gains more privledges making Group A the underdog however since groups B assurtains that they are equal and still the beaten child, they keep getting more and more until group A stops them ...

What am I saying? SImple, define what everyone has and let everyone have it and nobody gets anything the other cant have... one rule, one law, what goes for you, goes for me, always! thats fair.

Way to turn a thread about hollywood cliches and stereotypes into a stormfront.org rant.

Remakes have gotten out of control. Seems like a remade movie is coming out every month.

Along the lines of the car starting thing.........why must your tires squeal with the slightest movement of the car? Movie tires screech when they're parallel parking even. My tires don't do that, maybe they're defective?
