| I'm not getting excited about this because i've seen em all. And to be honest I have to say they suck major ass. I liked the Ali G in Da House movie and loved all the specials aired in Britain (have most of them on a cd) but this HBO thing is just not the same. Oh well, maybe you guys will like it. For me it just didn't do... |
