TOP 10 GUILTY Pleasure Movies: #7 – “Blankman” starring Damon Wayans and David Alan Grier

22 Sep

BlankmanSNL cast members have had SOOOO many movie failures (one of which will ALSO appear on this list), but when In Loving Color team extraordinaire, David Alan Grier and Damon Wayans, teamed together again to produce this STUPIDLY childish, yet hilarious superhero movie … well, it failed too. But it’s funny anyway! My brothers and I constantly quote lines from this movie, i.e. “Minelli! You’re going DOWN …” or “Silly Billy Gumdrops” or “Well, slap me around and call me Susie” or we’ll resort to his high-pitched scream whenever we get rough with one another.

Say what you will about it, but this movie makes me laugh. AND I own it on DVD.

Check out the trailer here.

    Uh, okay. I’m still looking for the redeeming value of this one, and I am the silly movie king.

    WHAAAAAAAT?!?!? Thanks for bringing this back!!! I used to LOVE this stupid movie! OMG I want to watch it again, bc this is is one of those movies that I haven’t seen since I was nine. Can you do a review of it for Soul Sistar??? This and Meteor Man were (silly) Black super hero classics *sigh.*

    LOL @ Max and InvisibleWoman. Ok, I’m putting my GUILTY PLEASURE movies out there! Which means I’m blasting myself. I challenge you both to do the same! I’m blog tagging you both.

    And Kiki THANK YOU for validating me! Meteor Man is also making an appearance on my list. I used to love that movie.

    Okay, I will admit one guilty pleasure. For whatever reason, I actually watched Pluto Nash twice. So, there you have it.

    And I feel much better since I got that off my chest. I have been living in shame for so long.
