I think him & John Witherspoon are irreparable loss. No matter how big an actor is, he pales in comparison to these two. One in millions could project that kinda performance on screen.
Glad to say I’ve seen all of these films multiple times. Bernie Mac was 1 of 1. Insane to think that it’s going on 16 years since he left us. World got a lot less funny when he left. R.I.P. 💐🕊️💐
People say he would be cancelled today because of his humor, and honestly, I agree. I do stand up and Bernie is my greatest influence. Granted, where I live it’s a small town and my audience is majority early 20s, I’m 30. Most who have heard me perform think I’m funny and enjoy it, but then there’s another selection of people who hate my jokes (and as a result, dislike me as an individual) because I’m too raunchy and curse too much. Whenever I explain why my material’s like that and cite Bernie as an example, I show them his stand up footage. They’re just as offended by him than they are me.
I personally like being looked at while given special attention to my crouch region. I tell em. You better not even blink. Laugh again! See what happens.
The first time I saw berine mac was in house party 3 the clip was not shown in this video but I knew then he was a king of comedy not the original King that title goes to Richard prior but a king of my time. You will alway be lived and missed
