This is probably the best film MTV has ever produced. I came in with no expectations except that it made me feel uncomfortable to watch as a kid. Alexander Payne deserves more recognition for his work.
Has anyone read the novel?

I like Alexander Payne but I've only seen About Schmidt and Sideways.

Based on the list I'm inclined to agree, sight unseen. Payne seems like the most competent film director in the bunch. In fact it's a little odd that he'd be involved with an MTV project at all.

(Is Pootie Tang better or worse than Black Dynamite?)

I feel like in 1999 mtv still had a shred of credibility, I bet Payne saw it as an opportunity to not only get the movie made, but have the mtv marketing juggernaut behind his project as well.
I haven't seen pootie tang or black dynamite, someone should ask cucktino. He knows everything there is to know about bbcs, blacksploitation and i haets witey.

I've been led to believe the director of Pootie Tang is even more qualified to speak on such matters
but i thought Black Dynamite was great. def worth a look
