Thanks for the link otengk. I am listening to it now.
Does anyone remember Family Dog? He was soooo cute!!
I like him in his part. Good choice.
Morris was excellent in his role.
Hey, Terrence would have been a good Santa. Thinking of who else could maybe play Santa, how about Forrest Whittaker?
"Wonderful, wonderful, fortunate you, This is the year that your dreams come true!"
Nope, not for this. I am not liking TH as Santa either. Sorry. Speaking of FW, I saw The Marsh in the wee hours.
The PJ's marathon on New Years started the year off right!!
I agree, Lady Di, that Whittaker wouldn't fit in the Morris Chestnut role in this, but I could possibly visualize him in a Santa role. He can handle the jolly, friendly, charismatic qualities of Santa just like he made Idi Amin look like a good guy at the beginning of KING OF SCOTLAND.
"Wonderful, wonderful, fortunate you, This is the year that your dreams come true!"
He has a problem playing Santa but not a wife abuser,criminal or pimp? Isn't the Muslim religion down on Black men playing stereotypes? Which btw Charlie Murphy played with glee. The only thing missing from making his stereotypical role complete was to have him salivating over the White bootyshakers in the video. If Terrence Howard truly had a problem then he's in the wrong business. Not to mention you're either an actor or you're not. A actor can play anything and separate himself from the part.

Good thing Santa Claus has basically nothing to do with Christianity.
