CUBA FUCKING GOODING JR

Have you ever just wanted to reach into a movie screen and shake somebody...? This is how I feel every time I see CGJ.

i couldn't make it through RAT RACE

Radio (2003) .... Radio <--------SRSLY WTF WERE U THINKING??????????

Meryl Streep, all is forgiven

good polling

worst actress ever

boat trip v. snow dogs is what this comes down to, basically

Come on guys, Land Before Time XIII was dope.

I had no idea he was on MacGyver so much. Maybe that's where he went wrong?

I thought about making this a poll but figured that would distract people from the true purpose: talking tons of shit about the stupid movies CGJ has done.

for awhile i was confused about his post-oscar decline, but looking at that whole list it's pretty clear he's always been all about making shit movies, including the one for which he won the oscar

my dad knows the real Radio

He needs lips, hips, and tits like Angelina.

My God, together in the same room.

I can't believe you made it through 10 minutes.

he'll forever get as pass in my book for being a really good tipper and being incredibly cool when a clumsy barback (not me) spilled cranberry juice on the bar, some of which ended up on him and his date.

his movies are entirely unforgivable. Though to be fair I've really only seen maybe three.

I saw Men Of Honor on a plane on the same trip where I saw Pay It Forward. Pure torture.

going on the premise that Jerry Maguire sucked (I personally have nothing against it, but whatever), what is his most defensible movie/performance? is he good in Boyz n the Hood?

JERRY MAGURIRE RULEZ DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH A HUMAN HEAD WAYS FULEZ!!!

so aaaaanyway those new lol-homo underwear commercials w/michael jordan wtf?

someone needs to start the Jonathan Lipnicki thread

http://www.adrants.com/images/gooding_jordan.jpg

like there were the super gay jodan/bacon commercials but it seemed like hanes wasnt really understanding - now these blatant gay joeks wtf?

MJ's one great regret is that Space Jam didn't lead to more film work, and that he was never offered a role in Boat Trip.

I wish I could remember why I watched any of "What Dreams May Come". I'm guessing my wife was pissed with me or something.

once a co-worker tried to tell me how great "Radio" was. I didn't really know how to respond to that.

PUNCHING

i watched all of rat race. at the end, smashmouth plays "all star" at a big concert and cuba gooding jr. breakdances

SPOILER ALERT

I can never rely on you to keep a movie secret again.

For shame.

Rat Race is one of my father in law's all time favorite movies, so I remember seeing that part and least some other parts of that movie.

Untitled Gehenna Project

lololololol "I'm never doing another comedy again! Wait, did you say Eddie Murphy?"

"The only way you're going to see me in a comedy is if A) Eddie Murphy turns the part down, or B) Eddie Murphy himself plays a fat woman in it."

"...I think we can work with that."

(Did Morbs pay to see and enjoy Norbit?)

noize ppl know who wrote Rat Race, right?

yes.

xp: no.

(Jon Lovitz basically IS Breckman in Rat Race)

Who would pay to enjoy Norbit?

xpost i have not seen it but it has shot way up the list this afternoon

http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=norbit.htm

"Domestic Total Gross: $95,673,607"

That's how many people paid to see it; I'm talking about paying to enjoy it.

(IOW, lol @ ur grammar)

I am fully fine with the idea that everyone paid to hate it.

On a certain level, I do have to say that I am much more okay with people spending money on a horrible Eddie Murphy movie than I am with people spending money on a horrible CGJ movie.

For some reason, I never saw this version of the poster.

Quick, some one find the Polish version.

http://www.polishposter.com/images/1318.jpg

Naw, I'm fucking with you all.

Flipping cable channels late one night, confronted with sex scene between Helen Mirren & CGJ (CGJ 'sexily' stripping for Mirren), didn't know whether to laugh or cry (love Mirren, you see), cringed, couldn't bear it & had to switch away... Can't find a clip, but see circa 2:48 ff. in this "Sexyback video":

(OK this movie... Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in it?! Plus: Stephen Dorff! Macy Gray! Mo'nique! Wow.)

Radio (2003) .... Radio <--------SRSLY WTF WERE U THINKING??????????

Its about a retard who likes football, right? Decent premise for a film if you ask me.

RADIO: THE BO JACKSON OVERDRIVE STORY

Quick, some one find the Polish version.

first thing that went through my head

I was going to have a 'magical retard' movie marathon, but I have been putting it off bcz, fuck, I'd have to watch Radio.

I mean like "The Eight Day" and "Rain Man" are pretty decent movies, and "Riding the Bus with my Sister" looks hilarious. BUT I don't know that I could handle CGJ riding around town in a shopping card like the world's most gleeful and oblivious hobo.

For your consideration, Abbott:
Rosie O'Donnell Playing a Retarded Person on Hallmark TV Movie

Ha, there's even some Radio chatter in that thread:

http://www.sptimes.com/2003/10/27/photos/FLO_3_ex27radio_171949_102.jpg

Wonder if Radio liked mustard with those french-fried potaters.

Benny and Joon is magical retardific, isn't it?

Don't forget I Am Sam

Was Leo D magical in Eating Gilbert Grape?

"CBS Schoolbreak Special" .... Paul (1 episode, 1988)
- No Means No (1988) TV episode .... Paul

lol

i don't see how actually wearing some other dude's underwear is supposed to be more suspect than him being solicitous of your groinal comfort enough to
buy you comfy shorts and present them in a wicker gift basket with bows and a little note. the first instance is i was out of drawers so i grabbed what was laying around and the second is stop thinking about my crotch.

multi x-post

he was good in boyz n the hood

epitaph

"Riding the Bus with my Sister" looks hilarious

It is.

I think I might actually like Rosie O'Donnell less than Cuba Gooding Jr.

She is completely awful. I don't know why people liked her on the View -- just because she's liberal doesn't mean she's not an ignorant, uninformed bully.

Lil Jon loves Radio.

It seems as though there aren't any "Rat Race" fan sites.

Proof that America sometimes comes to its senses.

i don't know, i saw a little of Boat Trip on TV and it was pretty legendarily awful

Based on this recap that might be an understatement.

LOL

Suddenly, an Ansari supporter jumped onstage and grabbed the mike. It was Cuba Gooding Jr. "Hey, hey, yo! Cuba Gooding!" said Cuba Gooding Jr. "Shut the fuck up! Shut the fuck up! We got Aziz here, motherfucker. He's trying to make us laugh with his cock out, motherfucker. Shut up and let him do his shit."

Ansari smiled, and replied, calmly. "I really don't care that much, Cuba Gooding Jr., but thank you very much."

holy shit it gets funnier from there

Cuba Gooding, Jr. obv has had a full career as a movie and tv actor, as proved by the long list of credits at the top of this thread. For every actor as successful as Gooding, there are at least 5,000 who struggle and fail to reach his eminence. After all, we knew who he is, just from reading his name in the thread title. So what if he isn't Laurence Olivier. btw, he's black.

Last night, I was flipping channels after the Giants' game and I came across Jerry Maguire, with the wonderful Cuba Gooding Jr. Now, I come to Vulture and what do I find? More Cuba Gooding Jr. goodies.

Best 12 hours ever!

(thank u based Raggett)

ok lol

that explains snow dogs, he was making movies for beer money

Happy to help.

Much funnier than what Mel Gibson would have said.

it's true that "*grabs woman by the throat* I DESERVE TO BE BLOWN IN THE JACUZZI" isn't really an amusing opening gambit when kicking game
