Rudy: Bye, Whitley. Come and visit us in Brooklyn. Bring the crown.

Whitley: That's very gracious of you, Rudy. Denise, it's amazing how two sisters can be so entirely different.

I know the 70s was the height of the Blaxplotation era, do you know of any Black films from the 80s that are comparable?

70s was notorious for blaxploitation, but in the 80s, it was all about heartfelt films like Stand By Me, Pretty In Pink, Breakfast Club, or Back To The Future. The whole blaxploitation ended pretty much in the seventies because Bill Cosby and Cecily Tyson boycotted black films negatively showing black heroes such as Pam Grier or Fred Williamson, who fought for equality or against drug pushers in the neighborhood. The 70s was all about player balls, cocaine, funk rock music and Cadillacs in blaxploitation movies but during the 80s Bill wanted to change the whole dynamic of black show business and have a different role for black actors just like Ester Rolle. He wanted sophisticated black women with profound jobs and black men who took care of their families. That's why in the late 80s and early 90s, there were a lot of black TV shows with this dynamic like The Bill Cosby show or Family Matters. Soon blaxploitation was forgotten about because people couldn't imagine Pam Grier (who was always nude in her films) playing Clair Huxtable or Jim Kelly, who was always kicking a white man's ass, playing Cliff Huxtable. I'm not saying that they couldn't if they tried, it's just the public already knew what they were all about, so they couldn't possibly see them in this sort of light. Some blaxploitation actors lost their careers around the 80s like Jim Kelly, Rudy Ray Moore, Ron O'Neal (aka SuperFly whose movie did huge numbers but failed to make another film because of the hate he gotten from press saying this movie was negatively impacting the black community), and Carol Speed. These actors were huge in the business for blaxploitation and kicking ass but soon, blaxploitation became the thing in the past. I could list hundreds more but the point is the seventies were huge for these stars but when the eighties came, the only surviving blaxploitation stars were Carl Weathers, who was famous for the Rocky film, and Fred Williamson.

Never change, internet 🤣

First result:

needed a feminine version of the baby name rudolph : r/namenerds hey guys, i just needed a female version of rodolf because it is said that rodolf is a male name, isn't rudolphina, or rudolphette, let me know in the comments what is the feminine version of rodolf so i can know

Top response suggests “Rue” or “Delphine,” neither of which—both French words ultimately derived from Greek—are forms of Rudolph (a German name meaning “famous wolf”). People reply (over and over) that those names remind them of a drug addict and a porn star.

Second response is classic internet WTFery:

😂. I googled it and got this…. I don’t think google understand the assignment Pregnant females use their antlers to dig through the snow in search for food, and lose them just before giving birth, he said. It's most likely, he said, that Rudolph, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen are all female. “Any reindeer right now with antlers is a girl,” he said

(That thread is 3 years old, so the search result that person posted is pre-AI/LLM garbage; we all know Google’s search has been going downhill for years…)

Some of the other responses are wildly hilarious, too, with references to alfalfa (but not Alfalfa!), Maya Rudolph, and Rudy Huxtable 😂

(For the morbidly curious, yes, the feminine versions of Rudolph are Rudolpha and Rudolphine/Rudolphina.)
