i mean, i get the question. its a movie starring black people but it doesnt necessarily encompass or illustrate black culture.
instead, white "culture" is at the center of the story being told.
so many may view it as simply a funny movie starring black actors rather than a "black movie".

It's just a comedy with Black and white actors in it.
Honestly I wouldn't call Scary Movie a "black" movie either
They're comedy for general audiences

at all. never understood the hype
White Chicks actually introduced Karen before karen was a thing
It's funny but its also socially conscious af. Ahead of it's time
The Wayans are pure genius . On many levels . Period

yeah
Entitled, oblivious, condescending
Don't sleep on the Wayans
They're goofy but they low key be handling business
They give social commentary without TRYING to give social commentary. All the time

oh vvcccc gotcha
:nowgorl:
They even dug a lot into social issues on the "Wayans bros" tv show
An episode that comes to mind is the rich white woman who wanted to use her influence to take advantage of Shawn sexually. Giving "Mandingo" teas
It was funny but there was def a clear undertone of consciousness - especially considering Shawn wasn't receptive to her advances. They painted her to be a predator.
Put some respect on their got damn names
Yea the Wayans always put a "message" in their comedy (including Keenan screaming MESSAGE in Don't Be A Menace)

!!!!!!!!
I would say they don't get enough credit for that but I don't think they're looking for a pat on the back
That makes it even more dope tbh
It's not forced/fake

The Wayans are legend.
White Chicks is classic but I don't think "black classic"
