4. Coming to America
5. House Party 1
Black comedy:
1. Magnolia
2. Being John Malkovich (spl)

"Uptown Saturday Night!" my favorite blaxploitation from the 70's. No one can forget the scene when those midgets come from beneath those sombreros on the gangsters heads, to shoot and kick Sidney Poitier and Bill Cosby's ass!

Coming To America is untouchable
Eric La Salle was something else
'I guess wearing clothes is a new experience for you' talking about Eddie Murphy

If the Oscars were really legit Eddie should have won or at least been nominated for an Academy Award that year,I think he must have played like 8 different chatracters in "Coming".
Also the make-up artists should have gotten a special nod too.Especially for the sequence at the end.
I aint asking for nothing,just open the door and i\'ll take it myself-James Brown.

Coming to America
Fave quotes
Landlord: "Hey Stu, your rent's due, mother_f_ucker Now don't be pulling that falling down the stairs sh_it on me again, you hear! Now you conscious! Every month, the same damn thang."
(After discovering that Akeem works a pathetic job at a hamburger joint.)
King Jaffe: My son WORKS?!
But I think the Trading Places inside joke was hilarious. I only just got it the last time i watched comign to america and I've seen it god knows how many times beforehand
Also the untouchable John maos talkign about how he is scamming mcdonalds
