A Post Almost As Timely As A Coon's Age....

Okay, so the news is that this weekend's big box office hit is the Kutcher/Mac vehicle "Guess Who", in which Ashton Kutcher goes home with his black girlfriend to meet her black family.

What alot of people don't remember is that we've seen this before, in a movie starring Sidney Poiter called "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner" in which Poiter goes home with his white girlfriend to meet her white family.

Couldn't leave well enough alone, now, could we?

So buried deep in the third disc of the second volume of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection is a short in which Porky Pig doesn't see the relevance of learning the Pledge of Allegiance. He tosses the book aside and takes a nap, at which is the point Uncle Sam materializes and takes him back through early American history, circa 1776.

At the end, Porky learns his lesson (Thanx, Unlce Sam!) and says the pledge; however, he doesn't say "Under God" and the flag had 48 stars.

Quite dated, ain't it?

Opening Soon: "Beauty Shop"

It's like Cedric the Entertainer got a sex change.

No, no......he was just a huge twat the whole time.
