Pootie Tang

""Pootie Tang-A" appears as a white man dressed in black face posing as Pootie Tang"

"As a child, Pootie Tang has his mother die and his father raise him just briefly. His father gives him a "magic" belt - the very same belt he's disciplined with - on his deathbed."

""Camietowns a biddie; wapatah to the bammies on the Pannie Stai! Cigarettes/Fast food = Netatai Baddy!" - an example of Pootie Tang's idiosyncratic speech offered early in the film. A PSA ad aimed at children is so effective, it launches the plot. Corporate America - embodied in Dave Atell, and "Lecter Corp." - attempts to seize Pootie's voice (20,000,000 USD is offered) which Pootie refuses on moral grounds ("That's a canapan to the semachai") with a "nay-no" [see below]]. Pootie refuses to "wah-da-tah to the shama cow", interpreted generally as Pootie will not succumb to any corporation's will [needs citation]. Irene "Hoochie Ma Chicken Head" is unleashed by Lecter Corp. to seek Pootie and steal his "magic" belt. In the tradition the solitary hero - Odysseus, Cuchulainn, and so on - Pootie has friends, not be relied on for sustenance, but friends nevertheless. Wanda Sykes plays one such friend - the classic "hooker with the heart of gold" who isn't actually a hooker - who hosts parties not even "air can get into" without an invitation."

"Trucky: It was incredible! Only the third time a man had been mauled by a gorilla at that steel mill!"

"Biggie Shorty: Just 'cause a girl like to dress fancy and stand on the street corner near some whores, you automatically think she's hookin'?"

"Trucky: You can't hurt a ho with a belt... they like that shit."

"Trucky: He was rejuvenated. You hear that? Rejuvenated. He was juvenated before, lost it... and got juvenated again. Rejuvenated!"

"Dirty Dee: Yeah! Hahahaha! Sepatown my ass!"

"Trucky: Dirty Dee is still dirty because he's Dirty Dee, dammit!"
