I really liked this movie, does anyone have a favorite line or scene from the movie??? :)Thanks.

"Outsiiide, fixin' to shave Mista'": It was a turning point in the movie, and I like how it was delivered by this kid...It was like he was expecting something...there was something in the air, and it sent Shug running!

"He's my man, and you just a big 'ol..."; and "whaddabout me-eee?": I just like saying those lines sometimes and doing Squeaks voice, b/c its fun...
