<v Speaker 1>is about Jamie Fox, and we are doing the top

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Jamie Fox performances. I'm gonna go around the womb with

0:00:25.239 --> 0:00:28.120
<v Speaker 1>my cast here and we'll talk about our favorite some

0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:33.000
<v Speaker 1>of our favorite Jamie Fox performances. Speaking of this wonderful

0:00:33.040 --> 0:00:35.680
<v Speaker 1>cast that I have here, I got Kim, I got

0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:41.000
<v Speaker 1>rot Man, and I got Mike. I will start with you, Mike.

0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I think everybody will probably will have one of the

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:53.040
<v Speaker 1>same ones. So let me just speak. I got I wrote, Okay,

0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:54.200
<v Speaker 1>so it's Jamie Fox.

0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:57.680
<v Speaker 2>So I wrote down a number of them because I

0:00:57.800 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 2>figured there would be some overlap, so I wanted to

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:04.399
<v Speaker 2>have options. But I was really probably on the gonna

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 2>mention maybe one or two.

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:09.440
<v Speaker 1>But okay, well you to But because everybody could have one,

0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:12.199
<v Speaker 1>that's probably Ray, I would say.

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:14.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think Ray is probably a given, right.

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I thought Ray was a given. You don't have Ray, Mike.

0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:20.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't have Ray. Oh wow, crazy. I skipped over

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Ray because I figured that.

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:26.200
<v Speaker 2>That would definitely be mentioned. But but yeah.

0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:30.240
<v Speaker 1>So we'll start with Mike. Please let us know what

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:32.040
<v Speaker 1>what you didn't have beside? I mean what you have?

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.040
<v Speaker 1>His eyes right, I'll give you a hint.

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:40.440
<v Speaker 3>Because my dick is definitely only two inches from the ground.

0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 1>You know I'm talking about. I will stick my elbow

0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:47.400
<v Speaker 1>sideways up your lass.

0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:54.080
<v Speaker 3>That is one of my favorite Shamie Fox performances because

0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:57.400
<v Speaker 3>I do not stop laughing for a whole hour and

0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 3>a half. He is killing me from the second he

0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:21.000

<v Speaker 2>But yeah, that's right.

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I am going to go with Stephen Willie Baby any

0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:14.760
<v Speaker 1>given Sunday Alpacino. Uh, they played the quarterback. You know,

0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:18.680
<v Speaker 1>you're doing good playing an asshole in the film and

0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:20.240
<v Speaker 1>not break the character when you get in a fight

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:24.240
<v Speaker 1>with llll cool Jay on set him telling that story.

0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, that's the movie any given Sunday that

0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:30.880
<v Speaker 1>he got to fight with him. He played a black

0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:35.280
<v Speaker 1>quarterback and came in for a veteran quarterback. Just nailed it.

0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Of what you thought that character would be. I thought

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:40.479
<v Speaker 1>that was dope. Was it John Likeuizamo that was telling

0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:44.280
<v Speaker 1>the story? I can't remember. Jamie Fox is telling it

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 1>on something that I've seen never mind.

0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:49.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Jamie Fox tells, I'm thinking of John Loquizamo and Stevenskall.

0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:56.960
<v Speaker 3>But no, that story, Jamie Fox. I don't know if

0:04:57.040 --> 0:05:00.360
<v Speaker 3>y'all have seen it. It is too It is funny

0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 3>because knew he was about to get his as. Yeah,

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 3>Jamie Fox, he wants to go that.

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:09.280
<v Speaker 1>He didn't won't do it. He did want to smoke,

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:11.280
<v Speaker 1>but he found out really quickly that he didn't want

0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 1>to smoke. What you got next? My next one might

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:22.920
<v Speaker 1>be a little controversial, but collateral cool? Okay, good cool.

0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:26.479
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's when he was on his little run, his

0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 4>run of like him being a good actor.

0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:31.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he was proven that I'm not just a comedian

0:05:32.600 --> 0:05:35.240
<v Speaker 3>and he really did his thing. I mean, as much

0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:37.200
<v Speaker 3>as people make fun of Tom Cruise, which I think

0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:39.559
<v Speaker 3>is whack, I think Tom Cruise is a good actor,

0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 3>and when you put him with Jamie Fox and it's

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 3>a very serious movie, you gotta you gotta really show up.

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.960
<v Speaker 1>With your a game, and Jamie Fox definitely did. Yeah.

0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:55.760
<v Speaker 1>Collateral is my second one. All right, right, what you

0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 1>got this? Uh? Players Club?

0:05:59.400 --> 0:05:59.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:05.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, weren't gonna be trouble. I loved him in that. Man,

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.599
<v Speaker 4>he was funny in that. I mean, obviously Bernie Mack

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 4>was great, but is it Yeah, he was great in it,

0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 4>but nah, the role that Jamie played in it too,

0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:19.039
<v Speaker 4>was was memorable as well. So especially amongst you know,

0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:21.919
<v Speaker 4>certain certain actors and stuff, and not even being like

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 4>a lead actor in it.

0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:25.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's still but he still stood out. Was

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 1>this early in his career? Players took him out in

0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:32.680
<v Speaker 1>ninety eighty eight? So probably yeah, Color right after the

0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:35.520
<v Speaker 1>TV show too? Right? Was that after Jimmy Fox Show?

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 1>I think you're right. Was it after that? I think

0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:42.160
<v Speaker 1>it was ninety eight, yeah, because I was already out

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:43.000
<v Speaker 1>of high school and ship.

0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:45.599
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Jamie Fox Show was ninety six to two thousand

0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 4>and one, so it was.

0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Around the same time time.

0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:51.800
<v Speaker 4>All right, yeah, yeah, so yeah, this was early Jamie Man.

0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, he was good. I like Jamie Ken what

0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 1>you got.

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if I have a second one, because

0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:59.680
<v Speaker 2>once you get past the obviously, when when I was

0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:03.440
<v Speaker 2>is this is kind of I don't know. There's a

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:07.080
<v Speaker 2>lot of them here, but uh, what about his performance

0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:11.440
<v Speaker 2>in Sault? Though I like Soul, I didn't like the movie.

0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:13.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm asking about his performance though it was.

0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 4>A goddamn cartoon. Yeah, I ain't really count because he

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:20.920

<v Speaker 1>Tyrone.

0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:26.440
<v Speaker 4>He was good, now, That's what I was. That was

<v Speaker 1>I can't remember either.

0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 2>We're talking about performances though, I'm just short that. I'm

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 2>just short on Jamie Foxx stand out performances.

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Once you get.

0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:43.480
<v Speaker 2>Past a lot of the mainstream ones, you guys, now.

0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know he was good and it gets looked

0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:49.960
<v Speaker 1>there For me, I got long bit into this. I

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:55.640
<v Speaker 1>don't think I saw that the Spike Lee movie, yeah

0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:59.840
<v Speaker 1>with him and uh citizens yeah, with Clyde Sheldon draw

0:08:00.800 --> 0:08:01.800
<v Speaker 1>the guy robbing the bank.

0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:05.480
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I know, I mean, I thought, at least

0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:07.440
<v Speaker 3>I've seen all Spike Lee films.

0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:09.720
<v Speaker 1>I just don't remember this one. Yeah, this is one

0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:13.200
<v Speaker 1>of my favorites. Actually, when he's uh, they did something

0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:16.680
<v Speaker 1>to the guy's family what's his name? Draw Butler and

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 1>he sets up his whole elaborate scheme and then you

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.000
<v Speaker 1>find at the end the reason why he's doing it,

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:22.960
<v Speaker 1>and he walks through this monologue. I ain't gonna tell

0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:24.960
<v Speaker 1>you why. He just walks through this monologue of what

0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:27.000
<v Speaker 1>happens and how you got an assistant in the end,

0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Timmy Fox, he plays the cop. Really good job. Long

0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:33.200
<v Speaker 1>bide and see this all right, I'm gonna check it out.

0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Spike Lee worries me sometimes though. Yeah, I'm scared of

0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:41.720
<v Speaker 1>this new one. To me, it's a curious hour remake,

0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:43.600
<v Speaker 1>which I don't know why you would ever fucking do that.

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:48.080
<v Speaker 1>And he's done remakes before and they've been bad. All right,

0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.600
<v Speaker 1>what you got next? What is it? All right? All

0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I had? Did you got? What?

0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? I fuck with Jamie Man.

0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 4>I liked him in another early movie, which was Bait.

0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:01.760
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if you've ever seen remember Bait was cool,

0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:04.319
<v Speaker 4>like like it was like an action film or whatever.

0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:05.400
<v Speaker 1>But he was really funny in it.

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:07.280
<v Speaker 4>He was really funny and bait.

0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 1>It's not the best.

0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 4>Movie in the world, but he was great. Yeah, I

0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:16.400
<v Speaker 4>think so. I've watched it several times. It's uh pretty

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:22.120
<v Speaker 4>fun that you had on DVD. Yeah, yeah, he was funny.

0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:24.439
<v Speaker 4>He was He was definitely funny. It's probably one of

0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:27.000
<v Speaker 4>his most funny movie roles that he's played.

0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Whatever.
