Bernie Mac Speaks on his Role in the Transformers Movie

Front paged and credited!

*blinks*

The english language just died a little more thanks to Bernic Mac.

Wasn't Seibs a used car salesman once?

Either way, my theory on Bernie Mac is the smaller the part the better.

Don't care about Bernie much. But I can see him playing this type of character. Bernie Mac?, used car salesman?,...o-yeah.

Bernie Mac kicks ass! Good to see he's going to be in at least 2 movies this summer.

Bernie Mac is all kinds of awesome.

Ooh, can't wait to see this!

Sounds good, as long as he doesn't become Cobra Commander.

I do most of my work for used car salesmen!

So I'm very opinionated right now over that statement.

I think what I'd realy like to say is, or more so ask; is where can I get a T-Shirt of this post!?! !?!

I break my a$$ all day for these guys who give me hell then do this all day themselves...


(thats The Whip in the backround)

Heh heh. Yep. I was a used car salesman from 97 - 98 and then I flipped to new cars from 98 - 2000 because I liked selling the set price to the GM employees. The dealership I worked at for about 3 of the years I sold cars had a set price on the vehicle. If you came in, the price was right on the window. If you didn't like the price, there was nothing I could do to negotiate the price. It was an interesting and far better way to sell cars. I did it the old fashioned way during my last year of selling cars. That's when I decided that that wasn't how I wanted to spend the rest of my life so I got into programming (thank god!).

I wasn't initially thrilled about Bernie Mac being in the movie. But after I read the script last August, his role in the movie really grew on me. It'll be a fun scene in the movie I think.

Somehow--And this is probably the lack of sleep talking--that's hilarious.

It's good to see recognizable actors in our movie. I just hope that he adds humor to the role!

I liked him in Bad Santa and that movie with Ashton...

Sorry I've seen a couple episodes of his series and I absolutly hate the way he acts. There's verry few things he ever says on that show that I'll agree with. Most of it I think is pure BS the way he talks about his family. I'm glad he only has a small part in the movie. It's bad enough allready without adding in actors I hate to the story.

So far as I know the movie is at least getting decent actors to play the main parts in the film and I'm hoping that'll be enough to make the movie look good because everything elce so far looks horrible.

Um...what? something about going to a restaurant with rotating food and then had some fun with Michael Bay then something about getting arrested and then Bernie Mac-ing it?

Ok I'm lost.

I never in a million years have would've thought I would hear Bernie Mac's name and Transformers in the same sentence. Oh well, it might me fun. But from the interview I wonder if he knows what he calls being told to "Bernie Mac it" is really just type casting.

No idea what he just said, but I'll buy that for a dollar.

Thanks Bernie, now I'll throw you a bucket of KFC.

god I hate that guy

Yup, you got that right.

BTW I'm glad I'm not the only one who couldn't understand a freaking word he was saying in that interview.

As long as he comes in small doses, I have no problem with Bernie Mac. It's when he's tapped to take a more prominent role that things start to fall apart...

Yeah The Mac Man is funny as hell , hes perfect for the part of a used car salesman lol .. When i first read he was playing this part way back when it first came out i was like " yeah thats a perfect role for him "

It's because he puts his own spin on things and alot of the time don't follow the script and it comes out better then what the writers wrote..

Everyone who's read the script (hasn't everyone, by now?) knows the part is very very small... might be a whole of 2-3 min. of the entire movie.

I haven't.

Could someone PM it to me? I've been looking all over the internet, but I can't find it.

This has absolutly nothing to do with this topic but why Soundwave wearing a diper?

And just so it's not a waisted post... na that's too grose to thank about and of course Bernie Mac don't wear dipers.

Clever, but it should be Bob the Contructicon.

Close, but no cigar.

I thought his name was Glen?

What he said wasn't hard to understand at all. For people to claim ignorance to what he was saying is just a shame.

And to the person who said Throw him some KFC..WTF??

On the box, it mentions the popular children's show character Bob the Builder.

Oh grow the hell up. Bernie Mac himself would have laughed at that. Then called us crackers.

It was kinda cool.

I know. He changed Bob the Builder to Bob the Constructicon. I was making a comment about the Constructicon having a human name and one of them is actully named Glen in Japan.

You abviosly speak Bernie Mac, would you care to translate for us? I don't have my Bernie Mac to English Dictionary with me.

Could someone explain this to me, please? I don't see why it was racist, largely because I don't get the joke. What's KFC got to do with either racism or Bernie Mac?

KFC has nothing to do with Bernie Mac.

It's racist because "kary" is implying that because Bernie is of African American decent, his favorite food must automatically be KFC.

It's a stereotypical misconception that most African Americans love KFC and other fried fatty foods. "Kary"'s comment was intentionally inflamatory and in no way contributed to any sort of intelligent discussion.

Actually to be really racist, KFC is not the African American choice... Now if he would have said throw him a bucket of Churches Chicken, or Popeyes then i could see it.. but not KFC..

Plus I own this shirt, and all my African American friends laugh every time they see it..

I think White people get overly concerned about their comments being racist versus what ethnic people will actually consider racist..

besides most of the racism i have encountered was ethnic on White..and not Vice Versa..

And if you think about it..white people in America are not the majority, from mexico downward its almost totally hispanic, Latino, or whatever..

the US is now only 50% white or caucasian, the rest 50% ethnic, and Canada is 90% white the rest 10% ethnic.. so down south has us beat by a long shot..

Throwing a bucket of KFC is not racist because Bernie Mac has stated serveral Hundred times in interviews and in his stand up comedy that he loves KFC..


Besides I'm italian, we ruled the known world for over a thousand years as Romans,we don't descriminate, we hate all races equally.. smile...

Come on guys, keep on topic.

Kary probably didn't mean it that way. If so, he knows he should watch his words.
