Nice, a white guy mining Mexican culture and speech. Comedy gold! I'm glad he has an El De Barge wig, mustache and brown-face.

Is that less offensive because you are Chicano, or more?

"Mexican Americans don't like to get up early, in the morning, but they have to, so they do it, real slow...

Mexican Americans love education, so they go to night school, and they take Spanish, and get a B" (as sung by Cheech Marin)

Are you seriously offended by this? I'd pay to see a Mexican Jack Black doing a Canadian lumberjack spoof.

I don't tend to get offended at things like that. To me Jack Black doing a spanish accent (and doing it well!) pretending to be a mexican wrestler (who are hilarious to begin with) is highly amusing.

What offends me are mexicans who are lazy and drinking budweiser on the stoop of their house. Mexicans who sneak into this country... People like that who make other people look at me with a critical eye because I am dark skinned. (Hell, I don't even speak any spanish!) That is what I find offensive.

I've always felt that ones race, and nationality of all chance. You no more choose to be a white american than you would a brown arab. Why get so upset at something that is basically an accident?

Why not have Jack Black put on black face and go to the south.
Instead of LuchaLibre make it basketball. Instead of a face mask, make it Alan Iverson.

I don't doubt it will be funny, but its a farce. And part of the farce is that Jack Black is a white guy in brown face talking in English with an accent.

That's a stupid idea. We all know Jack Black isn't fast enough to play Iverson.

It's funny because it's a big fat guy with a mustache running around in tights. I don't think it's any deeper than that.

I know a few British guys from a Flying Circus who used a few ridiculously funny French accents and no one seemed to mind.
