Not really that much detail on this article - is it really worthy of Wikipedia? Doesn't IMDB do this sort of thing a lot better? Zaphod Beeblebrox 11:24, 1 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Uhmmm, it's short, basic info... I guess add the IMDB link, though... (Possibly on a sort of general basis, concerning movies?)

Just because something is short doesn't mean it shouldn't be on a Wikipedia. It should be on Wikipedia, but it just needs more information. Cbrown1023

[edit] Racism

Does anyone want to add in anything about the potential offensiveness of this? Perhaps the fact that the main characters painted themselves white, in a way mocking how 'white people' look and dress. Zchris87v 20:06, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Offensiveness doesn't work that way. Things like this are only offensive when they're attacking minority groups. ;) 193.190.253.160 21:03, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

As a white person, I found it offensive. If somebody dresses up as a white person and starts speaking in a "Valley" accent to mock white people it is racist. Do you remember white people dressing up as "Black face" in the early 1900s? I found that racist and just as offensive as dressing up as white people and acting how we are stereotypical displayed. You know not all white women are rich and drive around in BMWs and talking on their cell phones saying "Like OMG" at the end of every sentence and carrying around a little rat sized dog in their purse. Not all white women are like Paris Hilton or like that airhead in "Legally blonde". User:Daniel_Chiswick 26 March, 2007
