All I have to say is Samuel L. Jackson better watch his back!!! I thought the exact same thing when I looked that up. That would be a bigger loss than I think I could stand, frankly.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.

For me, someone who knew very little about Isaac Hayes, his hypocrisy over the South Park episode Bobby mentioned was/is a major turnoff. A big fan of the show, I enjoyed Chef's contributions, most notably his salty chocolate balls. Hayes happily cashed checks for years while South Park poked fun at Christians, Jews, Mormons, Muslims, the handicapped and many other groups. His quote from a press release about the situation was, "There is a place in this world for satire, but there is a time when satire ends and intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs of others begins." I'm not trying to take away from the feelings fans of his are having, I just really don't care for hypocrisy. I think South Park creaters Trey Parker and Matt Stone showed class by posting an 'In memoriam' tribute to Hayes on their website. And Joe, I thought the picture was funny...  |  IP: Logged
