Wtf?!?!?!???

http://movies.yahoo.com/boxoffice/latest/rank.html

Ok, How the hell did White Chicks do this well? 19.6 Million weekend gross? Are you kidding me? And it was showing in 2726 theaters! How? I swear I though it would make no more than 2 million, mabye even 5, but 19! DAMN! I dunno how you all feel but I am not even compelled to rent this when it goes on DVD. Ok, I just had to get this outta my system, I'mm all good now. DAMN! 19 Million! WTF?

It's reverse racism mixed with stereotypes that make fun of white people; of course it sells.

reverse racism

just because its stereotypical towards white chicks doesn't make it "racist"...i mean christ have u watched "Dodgeball"? they had the stereotypical japanese dodgeball team with the sumo wrestlers and the stereotypical "innercity team" with the blacks with the bling bling and thugster FUBU, Roca wear...just cuz movie has stereotypes doesn't make it racist

Well said. Far too many people always shout too quickly that something or someone is being racist.

Political Correctness gone mad! I hate it!

There is no such thing as reverse racism. Just because we're conditioned to tie racism to only minorities, doesn't mean it's "reverse" when it's directed at caucasians. It's racism either way. And calling this movie racist is assinine.

On topic though - I love the Wayans bro., mostly due to In Living Color, but you couldn't pay me enough to sit through this movie.

Are you surprised that "Dodgeball" is grossed @ 19mil as well?

I dont know what age you are...but when I was in middle and highschool...just about EVERYONE would go see the lamest movies. ALL TOGETHER. Like my entire grade would all go see stupid movies.

All that money is from teens. Mommy's money

Posted by Floorfiller on Jun-30-2004 19:11:

do we really have to argue about the racism thing again?

it did good because the waynes always make ridiculous movies that make fun of everything and are a little shocking...so people want to watch it and laugh...
