S - Scene from a movie that you can’t forget: My source of reference for this entry is the movie "Brown Sugar." Taye Diggs accidentally takes his wife's cell phone again (played by Nicole Ari Parker) and she gets a kinky text message. It is a rendezvous and he decides to take Sanaa Lathan to the restaurant where his wife and some man are having a dinner. She's obviously cheating on him and he wants to confront her. Diggs and Lathan walk up on Parker and her dinner date. When Parker sees Diggs, her mouth drops like someone threw an anchor into the ocean. She's speechless. I thought this was the best scene in the whole damn movie...and the best moment was when Diggs tells the waiter "I need to celebrate. I want to order the most expensive bottle of champagne in this place. I need to celebrate my divorce." He says the last sentence as he takes a fork and taps a crystal glass.

my divoooooooorce! love it. i've seen that movie no less than 20xs (my dad and others would say many more than that) but i still DIE laughing every single time. "Absolutely Holy. I have my seat reserved in Heaven???" really sp?? go duke bball!!!! you differentiate b/t gummy bears and gummy worms??? i love both. how delish are roasted red potatoes? i made some and had to force myself to stop eating them.
LoL this was a good read.
SunChips yea
but
Black Cherry kool-aid nay
That Brown Sugar scene is priceless.I can hear the way Taye Diggs says it in the movie. But on New Years when toasting Syd aka Sanaa Lathan he also says something to the effect that you are "perfect verse over a tight beat", I was like that's what I'm looking for.
Very nice spin on this. I like! Learned more about you too!
@jameil1922...I need to buy that movie on DVD. Yes. Absolutely Holy. The gummy worms get caught in my teeth. I got hooked on roasted red potatoes in college.
@cnel...thanks. I always try to produce provocative prose. SunChips are the best damn chips on the planet. Why you hating on Black Cherry Kool-aid? Yes. I will never forget that scene from Brown Sugar with Taye Diggs tapping the glass. I also love that line about "you are a perfect verse over a tight beat." In fact, I'm changing my Facebook quote right now.
@ladynay. No problem...thanks for the inspiration
I still think Taye Diggs was the wrong dude for that role. Taye Diggs and hip hop do not go in the same damn sentence.
I liked this... I might take it :O)
If you want the power to read people's minds, I want the power to be invisible anytime, anywhere. Ha ha ha!!!
I know you did NOT say you hate green beans!!! What the world!!!!! And I canNOT believe you said Holy. And yeah, while he's an okay actor, and loads of fun to look at, Taye doesn't scream hip hop
I like this post....we have a few thangs in common. I love basketball!
Um, OMG you got hit by a car?!!
@solitaire.... Taye Diggs was fine for the part...the chemistry between Sanaa and him made me think they were an item.
@journiemajor... I repeat. I HATE GREEN BEANS.
@the mistress...yes...very traumatic experience.
you done came correct with this one, son. that, too, is my favorite part of that movie. DING!
I love sunchips too! (only the wheat sourcream or chesse joints though)
"Hunh? Cuz we gon celebrate" **ting ting ting** "My Divorceeeeeeee" LOVEIT!
Showme what you got is actually a big disaapointment for me..good song but I expected a better lead off comeback from Hov
Roasted Red Potatoes? Never had the pleasure (if it is a pleasure?)nor do I have any idea what it is...unless it just a roasted red potatoe...lol
u are making me hongray and im skipping lunch
@pops...thanks.
@madam...regular favor SunChips for me (the blue bag). Taye Diggs...delivers a winner with that scene. If Jigga is selling, I'm buying. Roasted red potatoes, chopped up and baked in some light oil...(licks lips).
@negropino...lol
