Bobby...I need a little more "Black." You know what I'm saying? Umm, like...Stick your ass out more. Bug the eyes - you know how they move.

They'll never play the Rambos until they stop playing the Sambos.

I think Bobby Taylor is a two bit goat smellin' spook, obviously from the Coon Repertoire Theater of America. We are out here sweatin' like **** on the way to an election in Georgia because he chooses to bug his eyes, yank his dick, and pull his raggedy skid marked drawers out the cracka his Black ass! I have nothing else to say about Bobby Taylor!
The guy from the Dirty Larry clip
What you say, honky sucker pig-head jive-turkey fool?
Uncle Ray There ain't nothin to it but to do it.
[in the "Black Acting School" fantasy sequence]
Hi. My name is Robert Taylor - and I'm a black actor. I had to learn to play these slave part - and now you can too, in Hollywood's first "Black Acting School". It teaches you everything! Learn Jive Talking 101...Let's talk to a graduate. This is Ricky Taylor. Ricky graduated from my class three years ago. Ricky, can you tell us what you've been doing since you graduated.
Ricky Taylor
Well, Robert, I've played nine crooks, four gang leaders, two dope dealers, and I played a rapist twice. That was fun. Currently, I'm filming a prison movie. I play this tough con and I have to **** this new inmate.
That sounds wonderful! I'm so happy for you. Need I say any more? It's Hollywood's first Black Acting School. It teaches you everything.
[to Batty Boy]
I read in a magazine that you still take acting classes. And that you don't drink or do drugs.
Body Guard #2 [Batty starts breathing heavy and shaking]
Relax, Mr. Batty. Relax.
Body Guard #1 Don't say drugs around the man. And don't say coke or free base, neither - unless you got some.
I have another very good idea. Could you tell him to be a little more - you know.
Yeah, Bobby - Bobby, I need a little more black. You know what I'm saying? Like, stick your ass out, bug the eyes, you know how to move, you know.
Yeah, jive - jive ass. Jive ass. Jive ass.
Relax! But I need some tension at the same time. But not too relaxed. But don't forget to give me sparkle.

This is bull shit.
What are you talking about?
Jesse Wilson
This is some more of the white man's stereotype of a black man, yeah, brother.
Really?
Jesse Wilson
Yeah, brother. Only an Uncle Tom would do this shit. They just lookin' for somebody to sell out.
Sell out?
Jesse Wilson
The only role they gonna let us do is a slave, a butler, or some street hood or something. Don't sell out, brother. Don't be a butler or a slave.
Receptionist
Jesse Wilson? Jesse Wilson, you're next.
Jesse Wilson
That's me! Good luck, brotha.

I knew exactly what she could do. And she did too. As she walked towards me, I saw that twinkle in her eyes. I knew it was time - to do the nasty. And I like - doin' the nasty. She was a good kisser; but her breath was stinky. But so what? You don't get rid of a Rolls Royce because it has a dent in it. I had never done it before on my desk. I was just glad to be on top. I'd hate to. do the nasty with a stapler up my ass.
[reviewing 'Dirty Larry']
Realism is important to me, and this was bullshit. This is the movie where the criminals wait for Dirty Larry to reach into his jacket and pull out a big ass gun. What did they think he was looking for, his American Express card?
He's supposed to take the money.
Right.
Take the ho. Take the ho! You know that.
Right.
And take the car and get the **** outta there.
I can't believe it. Because, he would have been dead a long time ago. Talkin' that shit, "Make my day."
Right, right! 'Cause as soon as he said, "Make my day," boom. Do 50 bullets in your ass make your day?
I didn't like this movie at all. First of all, it was the fact that I couldn't say the title. I get tired of titles I can't pronounce and shit. If you want people to come and see it, a mutha****er got to be able to tell his woman where he's gonna take her.
How can you tell if you have a good script?
Batty Boy Does your character…die?
No.
Batty Boy Then it’s a good script. Just one hit movie can give you success for life. It’s not about art! It’s about sequel!
