The Chris Rock "F**K the cup, poor it in my hand for a dime" scene and of course the Antonio Fargas pimp shoes with the gold fish in them scene. I cannot wait to revisit this 90's comedy gem.
The movie was released in 1988.

This and "Don't Be a Menace" still make me laugh. I actually find them funnier now because I'm more familiar with the movies they're parodying.

A comic gem. How about the fight scene where Ma Bell's (Ja'net DuBois) stunt double is a white guy with an Afro wig and a mustache? Sheer genius.

No uv. Kino titles never come with digital copies.

Can anyone confirm that the Kino release is 1080p? The UK release is 1080i.

Caps are up: http://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?d1=9528&d2=7977&c=3241

It's clearly the exact same jittery old telecine for both the UK and US discs, and although Kino have seemingly deinterlaced the 1080i60 version to provide a proper 24p master I think the UK one resolves the grain a little better (which wouldn't be the first time for a Koch encode). My TV can do the reverse pulldown to restore it to 24p anyway so I'll stick with the UK one.

Underneath all that technical bullshit it looks really nice in motion though!

Funny movie. For some reason Chris Rock usually worked a lot better as a supporting character versus leading man, though he carried CB4 pretty well.
