 Topic: Laurence Fishburne Appreciation Thread
Posted: 18 Sep 2009 at 11:26am |
I was thinking the other day of the greatness that is Larry Fishburne (he will always be Larry to me  ). His career spans over three decades, not many child actors can make that claim. Laurence has been in so many great films it's really hard to narrow down one as my favorite.
What is your favorite Laurence Fishburne character/role?
The obvious choice would be Ike Turner, I use Laurence as Ike Turner quotes on a daily basis (eat the cake Anna Mae) but I will have to put that as my second favorite character.
My favorite is Furious Styles from Boyz In The Hood. Man he was good looking . |

Yeah I agree with you. I liked him in Boyz In the Hood.
I just googled him and I forgot that he played as Cowboy Curtis in Pee Wee's playhouse. Yeah, he's been around a long time.

I loved the scene in school daze when "Da Fellas" were confronted by some brothas at KFC. Lawrence Fishburne walks up to Samuel L Jackson ....you think he's gonna hit him....but instead he goes, "You're NOT NI@@AS"
