Speaker 1: I am going to go with Stephen Willie Baby any
Speaker 1: given Sunday Alpacino. Uh, they played the quarterback. You know,
Speaker 1: you're doing good playing an asshole in the film and
Speaker 1: not break the character when you get in a fight
Speaker 1: with llll cool Jay on set him telling that story.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's the movie any given Sunday that
Speaker 1: he got to fight with him. He played a black
Speaker 1: quarterback and came in for a veteran quarterback. Just nailed it.
Speaker 1: Of what you thought that character would be. I thought
Speaker 1: that was dope. Was it John Likeuizamo that was telling
Speaker 1: the story? I can't remember. Jamie Fox is telling it
Speaker 1: on something that I've seen never mind.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jamie Fox tells, I'm thinking of John Loquizamo and Stevenskall.
Speaker 3: But no, that story, Jamie Fox. I don't know if
Speaker 3: y'all have seen it. It is too It is funny
Speaker 3: because knew he was about to get his as. Yeah,
Speaker 3: Jamie Fox, he wants to go that.
Speaker 1: He didn't won't do it. He did want to smoke,
Speaker 1: but he found out really quickly that he didn't want
Speaker 1: to smoke. What you got next? My next one might
Speaker 1: be a little controversial, but collateral cool? Okay, good cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's when he was on his little run, his
Speaker 4: run of like him being a good actor.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was proven that I'm not just a comedian
Speaker 3: and he really did his thing. I mean, as much
Speaker 3: as people make fun of Tom Cruise, which I think
Speaker 3: is whack, I think Tom Cruise is a good actor,
Speaker 3: and when you put him with Jamie Fox and it's
Speaker 3: a very serious movie, you gotta you gotta really show up.
Speaker 1: With your a game, and Jamie Fox definitely did. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Collateral is my second one. All right, right, what you
Speaker 1: got this? Uh? Players Club?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, weren't gonna be trouble. I loved him in that. Man,
Speaker 4: he was funny in that. I mean, obviously Bernie Mack
Speaker 4: was great, but is it Yeah, he was great in it,
Speaker 4: but nah, the role that Jamie played in it too,
Speaker 4: was was memorable as well. So especially amongst you know,
Speaker 4: certain certain actors and stuff, and not even being like
Speaker 4: a lead actor in it.
Speaker 1: You know, he's still but he still stood out. Was
Speaker 1: this early in his career? Players took him out in
Speaker 1: ninety eighty eight? So probably yeah, Color right after the
Speaker 1: TV show too? Right? Was that after Jimmy Fox Show?
Speaker 1: I think you're right. Was it after that? I think
Speaker 1: it was ninety eight, yeah, because I was already out
Speaker 1: of high school and ship.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jamie Fox Show was ninety six to two thousand
Speaker 4: and one, so it was.
Speaker 1: Around the same time time.
Speaker 4: All right, yeah, yeah, so yeah, this was early Jamie Man.
Speaker 1: So yeah, he was good. I like Jamie Ken what
Speaker 1: you got.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I have a second one, because
Speaker 2: once you get past the obviously, when when I was
Speaker 2: looking at this from a groom, I'm like, oh, this
Speaker 2: is this is kind of I don't know. There's a
Speaker 2: lot of them here, but uh, what about his performance
Speaker 2: in Sault? Though I like Soul, I didn't like the movie.
Speaker 2: I'm asking about his performance though it was.
Speaker 4: A goddamn cartoon. Yeah, I ain't really count because he
Speaker 4: played in Real too and strays. Yeah, well, yeah, I
Speaker 4: don't have another.
Speaker 1: Tyrone.
Speaker 4: He was good, now, That's what I was. That was
Speaker 4: my third one ahead you didn't like, I can't remember.
Speaker 1: I can't remember either.
Speaker 2: We're talking about performances though, I'm just short that. I'm
Speaker 2: just short on Jamie Foxx stand out performances.
Speaker 1: Once you get.
Speaker 2: Past a lot of the mainstream ones, you guys, now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know he was good and it gets looked
Speaker 1: there For me, I got long bit into this. I
Speaker 1: don't think I saw that the Spike Lee movie, yeah
Speaker 1: with him and uh citizens yeah, with Clyde Sheldon draw
Speaker 1: the guy robbing the bank.
Speaker 3: I mean, I know, I mean, I thought, at least
Speaker 3: I've seen all Spike Lee films.
Speaker 1: I just don't remember this one. Yeah, this is one
Speaker 1: of my favorites. Actually, when he's uh, they did something
Speaker 1: to the guy's family what's his name? Draw Butler and
Speaker 1: he sets up his whole elaborate scheme and then you
Speaker 1: find at the end the reason why he's doing it,
Speaker 1: and he walks through this monologue. I ain't gonna tell
Speaker 1: you why. He just walks through this monologue of what
Speaker 1: happens and how you got an assistant in the end,
Speaker 1: Timmy Fox, he plays the cop. Really good job. Long
Speaker 1: bide and see this all right, I'm gonna check it out.
Speaker 1: Spike Lee worries me sometimes though. Yeah, I'm scared of
Speaker 1: this new one. To me, it's a curious hour remake,
Speaker 1: which I don't know why you would ever fucking do that.
Speaker 1: And he's done remakes before and they've been bad. All right,
Speaker 1: what you got next? What is it? All right? All
Speaker 1: I had? Did you got? What?

Speaker 4: think so. I've watched it several times. It's uh pretty
Speaker 4: fun that you had on DVD. Yeah, yeah, he was funny.
Speaker 4: He was He was definitely funny. It's probably one of
Speaker 4: his most funny movie roles that he's played.
