#33 – Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo

“It’s lemonade man… what’s wrong with these people?”

But for real though Ice-T was pleasantly sprinkled throughout this movie as he was in the original iteration of this epic tale of interracial love in the inner city and the troubles that arise.  It was like Romeo & Juliet meets Kurtis Blow & Lionel Richie.  And you better believe there was most definitely some dancing on the ceiling in what can only be described as the single most awesome cinematography in any movie ever.

This movie was a great as I remember from my adolescence and that nostalgia factor took me back to a simpler time when my older sister and I enjoyed watching this flick over and over again.

Now it’s time to come back to reality.  For those who have bothered to actually weigh in on the Google Sheet and post a rating, it’s clear this movie didn’t work for the whole group.  I needed you Goins, these white boys don’t know good cinema when they see it.  I mean come on what better way to end a street fight, stage a protest, or raise funds to save an inner city youth rec center than with break dancing? It’s like they want us to resort to violence so that the man can slay us in the streets.  Just kidding whiteys, don’t get your underoos in a bunch.

Man… girls are WACK!!!

This week’s pick I believe is reserved for new daddy Mark.

I’ve got my fingers crossed that he actually chooses Look Who’s Talking Too or Baby Geniuses. 

See you all tomorrow night.
