Then again, Rock may be one of this project's more controversial selections. Just last month, The New Republic devoted 4,000 words to explain why he and fellow African-American comic Chris Tucker were "reactionary" and to decry Rock's "reliance upon minstrelsy and coon comedy." The criticism echoes a frequent complaint that Rock's politically incorrect humor gives cover to racists--most infamously his "Niggas vs. Black People" routine from the Bring the Pain HBO special that helped revive his career in 1996 after three years in the wilderness that followed his underutilized tenure on Saturday Night Live...

...Stupid, ridiculous giddy fun defined the original, and that's what can be expected for the sequel, Rush Hour 2. Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan team up again as the odd-couple, culture-clashing detective duo to do battle against some form of evil, but this time Tucker's the fish out of water as the action shifts from L.A. to Hong Kong. Plot details are sketchy, but immaterial as the pair attempts to uncover a conspiracy involving the Triad organized crime syndicate. Trailers show Chan's self-choreographed, playfully frenetic fight scenes will provide eye candy, aided...
