smjmcomic,
They have just lost their edge is all.I feel you though.There was a time when they were the creme de la creme (Living color,Imma Git You Sucka,etc.)but hell "Scary Movie" did something for the family name (one of if not the top grossing films by a black director)and "My Wife And Kids" is still on the air and doing well (his other sitcoms flopped)And I can't front, that time Damon did an impression of Richard scared on "Living Color" was classic. (Still doesn't make up for Marci X though)Does anybody ever remember Damon Wayans being cast for a "Mudbone" movie a while back?

smjmcomic and Jennifer,
Shit I might be mistaken so don't hold me to it.If it wasn't Mudbone it was a biopic.I remember the story saying something like he had been cast but the filmmakers were taking forever in development.And granted it had to be in the 90's when I read this.So if this is some bullshit yall straighten a playa out. b.b

Yeah, I came across that news too. It was from the 90's. The acticle I read said Martin Scorsese was directing it, and Damon was playing Pryor... I'm just glad that shit never went through. Wouldn't have been nothin' nice.

check the article at the bottom of this page.

bingolong,
LOL_funny-
Damon was interested in playing Richard (not Mudbone) and
there was a developmental deal for five minutes-I squashed this cause Scorcese wasn't the one to do this and Damon playing RIchard is like Eddy Murphy playing Malcom X!! ;p
