Gone Too Soon
By pmd on Aug 9, 2008 in News & Politics |
Well I had a horrible feeling this was going to happen. After the rumor of his death spread last week, something just didn’t sit right. His publicist said he would be released from the hospital soon, but it was not meant to be. Bernie Mac was 50 years old and contributed an endless supply of hysterical performances to the world. My three favorites in no order are House Party 3, Life, and Bad Santa.
He reached the mountain top as a comic–performing in a blockbuster performance movie (The Original Kings of Comedy) and landing a hit series with his name in the title. He also costarred in blockbusters like the Ocean’s 11 series and Charlie’s Angels He hustled his way from the streets of Chicago to the top of the comedy world. He will be dearly missed.
What were your favorite Bernie Mac moments?
This is one of mine….
He was amazing in Oceans 11.

My fave Bernie Mac moment is probably shared by many: “Milk and cookies” bit from Kings of Comedy.

And of course, the skit to close his set on Kings of Comedy, where he breaks down the multiple uses of the word muthaf*&ka….
You’ll be missed Mac…

According to imdb.com Mac still got 3 movies in post production including “Soul Men” which feature, Isaac Hayes, who also just passed away, RIP.
Im hoping the movie is dope enough to give both men their “Heath Ledger post-humous mainstream” recognition. Damn what a crazy weekend!!

For 1. Rest in Peace, you’ll truly be missed why can’t it be someone insignificant like…say…Pauly Shore..
2.That wasn’t really Mac on College Dropout, it was DeRay Davis
3. Death comes in 3’s and the movie that was mentioned above also co-stars, Morgan Freeman (allegedly) hope nothing happens to him seeing as he was just in a bad accident
4. WHERE IS JUAN EP.
