So this bear walks into a bar, orders a beer, and gives the bartender a $20. The bartender, figuring the bear can’t do math, gives him a one dollar bill in change.

Then the bartender says, “You know, not many bears come in here”. The bear replies, “At $19 a beer, I’m not surprised.”

Soiled diapers would be difficult to smuggle unless they did it one at a time.

Oh crap. I thought it was a movie about Michael Moore. Would have loved the ending.

Damned, missed it by about 65 lbs of Coke.

Since I appear to be the only one tracking on this thought, I’ll yield to anyone who wants to seize on the idea and write a letter and/or post some antagonistic twits.

It was in the 80s, after all, when black communities were being destroyed by cocaine & crack, and spawned the investigation which ultimately exposed the government’s role under Gary Webb’s determined digging into facts.

So it’s utterly moronic in the current ‘critical race’ & ‘cancel’ cultures that Hollywood leftists would consider filming a movie about a BLACK bear which overdoses on a duffel bag of cocaine in the forest.

It’s utterly cliche’. Literally, if you consider where that cocaine was bound for and how it was to be marketed after urban processing into crack.

Produced by the town in which it SNOWED during that era, further funding the exploitation and addiction of urban minority communities.

Not only cliche’ but, by the left’s standards, fraught with insensitivities & hypocrisy. It might as well star Samuel L Jackson & Chris Rock - maybe even Edward Norton as the exploiting white smuggler - & filed under the genre Blaxploitation.

I, for one, would love to see the left eat their own over this (making popcorn).

Gary Oldman as the pimp/dealer in “True Romance” was the perfect white urban criminal.

Another BS movie about nothing from Hollyweird. Whatever happened to “hard hitting” films about important subjects?

I did not know Quentin Tarantino wrote that script and sold it to finance “Reservoir Dogs” until he had done a few films and saw a biography on him.

News of Elizabeth Banks directing a new movie about a bear that consumed 70 pounds of cocaine that was dropped by drug smugglers in 1985 has sent Twitter into a frenzy and even prompted Bette Midler to offer her services as an acting coach.

Needless to say, Bette will coach the bear.
