RIP :cry:

 

It's very sad. I liked him as an actor. Don't think I ever saw him do stand-up though.

Regardless, it's a sad day. :cry:

 

I once watched a DVD with Def Comedy Jam or what the name was.He was in there

 

omg, what????


noooooooooooo!


:shock: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

 

well..

that f'in sucks..

no one did comedy like Bernie

"stop cryin and do some push-ups!"

 

All my favorite comedians are dying. First George Carlin, a god amongst men, and now Bernie Mac?!?!?!?

I'm crushed.

 

sucks man,,it wasnt just his comedy but more so his personality.......damn major loss...

I remember watching him and Chris Rock on oprah about 5 years ago (its been that long??).............man......what a funny guy

 

I heard about it this morning. It was a shock that he died so soon. He was good in Bad Santa,The Ocean's 11 movies,and his tv series. Bernie Mac would be missed.

 

Thats the one I watched.Bad Santa with Billy Bob Thornton. Loved the movie and his performance

 

There is another DVD release called Badder Santa with scenes not included in the movie.

 

Oh for real? I ll check that one out as well

 

RIP Mac mac. Can't nobody take your place. One of the GOAT(Greatest of all time). I damn near cried when I heard about this.

 

The first movie dh and I saw together was Kings of Comedy.

Gosh, I can't believe Bernie Mac is dead. :cry:

 

May God bless his soul. And I only saw him on Leno just a few weeks ago? :cry:

 

.... I don't think too many people seen that comin, pimpin.'

I know I didn't....

it's not like he was sticken by cancer for months and then kaput...

plus he wasn't even that old, ya know...

goin to miss his style of comedy, fo sho

 

Same here. Last I heard his name was regarding the controversy that ensued because of his comedic style during a Barack Obama rally.

My first memory of Bernie Mac was seeing him perform during one of the early episodes of Russell Simmons' "Def Comedy Jams". I've enjoyed his comedy from that point forward. He'll certainly be missed.

It's ironic that he and Isaac Hayes both played roles in an upcoming movie. Both checked out much too soon.

 

Not that old? Man, I didn't even know he was 50! He looked so much younger than that.

I'm so sad.
