I watched Soul Plane (2004) for the first time, this is an early 2000s cultural treasure

Why this movie was snubbed by the Academy remains a mystery

I remember when Kevin Hart blew up in stand-up comedy, I was like oh it's the dude from Soul Plane.

Didn’t Louis CK write and produce?

I have never seen it but some of the original reviews are pretty funny. Seems like a lot of people were offended by it.


quote:

Declaring in a recent speech that "Soul Plane" is "coonery and buffoonery," Spike Lee is one of a number of entertainment figures saying the film is among the most offensive ever in terms of showing blacks in a negative light.


quote:

"Why are black people so insecure?" said Walter Latham, the creator behind "The Original Kings of Comedy" tour and film that featured Cedric the Entertainer. Latham added: "Black people should accept the fact that our heritage is different, and we should embrace who we are as a people. If there was a black airline, they probably would serve ribs and collard greens. That's who we are."

In high school I accidentally took my girlfriend to see this movie on opening night. Was an interesting experience.

How do you accidentally take someone to a movie?

The quarter lockers in low class was hilarious. I'm surprised it hasn't been implemented on real airlines.
