Arsenio played Morris, the barber who was always eating. In the club Arsenio also played the woman who told Akeem I WANNA TEAR YOU APART. At the Black Awareness rally, Eddie played Randy Watson. Arsenio played Reverend Brown.

    Tiny Desk just had the band on, that wrote and performed 'Soul Glo'.
    Also, when their luggage got stolen I died.
    They definitely injected a lot of money into that area.

    This is possibly my favorite comedy of all time.
    We used to live in a golden age of cinema and culture.
    Edit: This is also the first instance I recall of ever seeing a shared film universe i.e. between trading places and coming to america.

    TRUE STORY: My neighbor is a complete asshole. Literally called the police when the church next door to me had the audacity to hold a funeral on a Saturday. In response, Ive been doing the *"GOOD MORNING MY NEIGHBORS"* at 430am every day for 8 years come November 7th. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 The local police 100% support me and often find a reason to blast their sirens around that time at least once a week.
    EDIT: One of the cops he called on me day 3 was cute as hell and she literally fell down laughing when I did the "YES YES FUCK YOU TOO" part. We've been "buddies" ever since😂😂😂

      Eye for a eye and everyone's blind! Bragging about harassing your neighbor with police support? Childish and petty behavior doesn't change a$$hole just puts you and cops on the same low level. I pray no danger comes to you or your family. I doubly pray that you don't have children witnessing this poor petty behavior.
      SAD & SICK!
