Has anyone seen this crap?
The plot is dumb, and I don't like Andy Milonakis.
But I almost had a fatal heart attack when I read the cast list on IMDB.
All I can say is "Why?"

Who's Your Caddy is part of a rich tradition of taking popular movies that people liked 20 years ago and remaking them as stinking piles of crap dubiously aimed at an African-American audience that Hollywood thinks is dumb enough to enjoy them.
National Lampoon's Vacation becomes Are We There Yet
Airplane becomes Soulplane
Leprechaun becomes Little Man
Back To School starring Rodney Dangerfield becomes Back To School starring Cedric The Entertainer
And Caddyshack becomes Who's Your Caddy

The worst part of this is seeing Shredder go to a new low.

We were talking about it on the last episode of the Bromance, but then we cut it because we all got pissed off about movies perpetuating black stereotypes... and then ironically we all started making racist jokes.

Sadly, the only funny 'black' comedy i can think of, that has been released in a while, is Friday. I can think of others that are older, but that is the most recent one I can think of, off the top of my head. I could be definitely be wrong, and I hope I am, but I cant recall any others.
granted it is 2am and i been drinking but whatev....

Yeah, the Friday movies are pretty awesome. I'm gonna count Half Baked too, as it starred Dave Chapelle and was co-written by him.
Life was really good, but that was more of a comedy/drama than a straight comedy.

I bought "Rat Race" last week and watched parts of it for the first time since the theater. It's still a guilty pleasure.

When Rat Race first came out I was pretty little and I wanted to see it so bad, even though I had no idea what it was about. I still haven't seen it.

Yeah, it may not be the best comedy in the world, but come on, Rowan Atkinson and John Cleese in the same movie! Of course, them plus Dave Thomas, are the only reason to watch the movie.

Jon Lovitz at the Nazi-Barbie museum really made me laugh.
