Duh Duh Man in this movie


Duh Duh Man’s stutter did not belong in this movie; stutter jokes only work if the tone is immature, like Jackass or Dumb & Dumber. Stutter jokes in a drug-trafficking movie made many scenes awkward and wasn’t needed. It was clear the movie wanted Brown to have a right-hand man that wasn’t the clichéd silent but strong type, or only speak when it is necessary but to give him something genuine to hold onto. Why not have this character a ladies man? Give Nino Brown something to contend with as his ego grows during the movie; there is a pivotal moment when Brown takes his brother’s girl during his megalomania, so why not have a direct contender? Duh Duh Man has always got the women, or is always seen with women, thus this would entice Brown to go one step further and sleep with any beautiful woman that comes near him and they fall for it. Keeps with the tone of the movie and an original character drive.

Stutter jokes? He wasn't stuttering for a joke, they had him stutter like any person with a stutter would. He was just fine in his role, it fit in just fine. He just died a few days ago too.

I didn't know he passed on. That's a shame.
