Marci X: The most cringeworthy movie you'll ever see

Marci X might be the most uncomfortable thing I've ever had to sit through. Body-horror movies are easier to power through than watching this trainwreck. It was a movie released in 2003 that was already 15 years outdated and has the absolute worst acting, music, and screenwriting. The "black-people-be-like..." humor is so GD embarrassing.



The trailer is a horrible enough preview, but fails to foreshadow:

- Phoebe from Friends proving her "street-cred" to a crowd of black people by rapping about about purses and shopping with assistance from her white socialite friends.

- A gangsta rapper played by the wayan brother from "Major Payne" is forced to do an abstinence PSA with a flaming gay boy band imitating the backstreet boys.

- Speaking of imitation; a Suge Knight stand-in runs the record label for the Damon Wayon character from a luxurious prison cell suite.

- Lisa Kudrow's character is involved with doing a bunch of charities that include auctioning off a dinner date with Donald Trump.

- The outraged politician lady comes around to not canceling Damon Wayons singing about wanting it in the butt becuase she gets a mixtape about her from him.

- She is also pursuaded to stop the canceling by her son who says this to her: "I love you, Mom!...In the butt!"

- Marci X is a reference to Malcom X because Kudrow's character arc is to know what it's like to be black.

How TF did this movie get made?!

Wow, Janusz Kiminsky shot that Vanilla Ice film. Damn, dude probably sends Spielberg thank you notes every week for dragging him out of that world.

I worked at a movie theater when Marci X came out. It was gone after two weeks.

Welcome to the horrifying world of actors trying to show they are hip and edgy. On paper this sounded like an over the top comedy with some daring jokes.

On the screen it was a 10 car pileup with multiple fatalities. This sort of script is really hard to pull off but Hollywood keeps coming back to it again and again.

Kudrow and Wayans were both at the top of the comedic game going into the movie. It probably sounded like a slam dunk to everyone involved. Whoopsy!

I'll take your word for it.

Kudrows as bad a actor as her character was annoying on Friends.

I’ve never understood all the hate and jealousy directed at Vanilla Ice.

People are cruel.

If you don't even know Damon Wayans name I'm not going to bother with the rest of your post.
