Rudy Ray Moore RIP by Vic Twenty	Oct 20th, 2008 04:16:45 PM
The man finally took it to Dolemite. Rest yo big ass in peace.
Dolemite was fuckin' hilarious by Spandau Belly	Oct 20th, 2008 04:17:00 PM
I kinda figured this guy was already dead though. I remember Vern writing about seeing him live a few years back and he sounded pretty frail then.
RIP by johnyaztec	Oct 20th, 2008 04:21:16 PM
this makes me very sad that he died. I was watching Dolomite a few days ago and enjoyed the hell out of it.. RIP Rudy you will be missed
The World seems all so much smaller now by stripetg	Oct 20th, 2008 04:31:58 PM
Because as the "Human Tornado", Dolemite had a "dong as big as King King!" RIP Rudy.
I meant "King Kong" by stripetg	Oct 20th, 2008 04:32:37 PM
Stupid no typewriting skillz!
Terrence Howard as Dolemite! by cowboyone	Oct 20th, 2008 04:37:13 PM
He'd be perfect, cause he keeps it real and he's so fly.
I really enjoyed Disco Godfather by CherryValance	Oct 20th, 2008 04:39:25 PM
I'll have to check out some of his other stuff. RIP.
I didn't know about Dolemite until I saw The Great White Hype by Frisco	Oct 20th, 2008 04:41:50 PM
But that was a fine introduction. Rest in peace, Mr. Moore.
Damn. Rudy Ray Ruled! by force_fed	Oct 20th, 2008 04:45:37 PM
I had the pleasure or meeting him during the Drive-Invasion at The Starlight Six Drive-In in Atlanta a few years ago (a badass annual event here in the dirty south). He was a total class act, although his facilities were a bit limited by then. The coolest thing I remember about him was that he still had a posse! I was quite impressed. Sorry to hear the news. SO LONG DOLEMITE!

Frigging amazing. Only Rudy could pull one over on the devil.
God Dammit!!! by Annie The Pod Racer	Oct 20th, 2008 04:51:11 PM
At least he can rest those hush puppies in PIMP heaven now. RIP Rudy & thnx for signing my shit at Comi-con 06!
Damn, that's not what I want to see by Vern	Oct 20th, 2008 04:54:59 PM
when I open up Ain't It Cool. I knew he was gettin up there because I saw him perform in a wheelchair on his 80th birthday. But it's a shame to see the man go. He was actually a big inspiration to me - even to the end he was doing his own thing and working independently on whatever shoe string budget he could. Following his own filthy mouthed dream. And flying to Seattle to perform with a broken hip on his 80th birthday. "That's right, I really did that shit!" RIP Petey Wheatstraw. Here's a review I wrote of that show if anybody cares: Permalink : http://www.nervepop.com/nerveb log/screengrabblog.aspx?id=107 e9922#9922

Of course he'll have to marry his ugly ass daughter though.

Saw you at the SD Comic Con... by Roketopunch	Oct 20th, 2008 04:59:24 PM
some 3 years ago and you seemed healthy. Life will take you where it wants you to go. Farewell. Who's next?

What can you say about the passing of a legend? by The Reluctant Austinite	Oct 20th, 2008 05:09:15 PM
A few years ago, while I was managing Wild & Woolly Video in Louisville, we brought Rudy to town to do his comedy act at the local comedy venue and to sign some autographs in our store. Everytime he called us on the phone (before and after) he introduced himself as Dolemite, which alway got me excited. Damn, I just talked to Dolemite! Rudy was in the process of staging a late career comeback, finishing "The Return of Dolemite" and bringing his stage show back to the masses. His friend and bodyguard/ manager Napoleon was a damn nice guy too. I asked the store manager if he thought any kids today would remember Rudy or come out to see him. He said, "You don't bring Rudy Ray Moore to town because he's hot with the kids. You bring him to town because he's a legend." He was right. They came to see him in droves, selling out 5 out of 6 shows. Only the early, no smoking show didn't sell out. I was lucky. I not only got to see his act, but I got to shake his hand and tell him that I laughed my ass off. He replyed, "Y'all have made me feel so loved." Seriously. This bad mutha will be missed.
Pimp fu! by The Spaz	Oct 20th, 2008 05:20:23 PM
Moore was interviewed in Giant Robot magazine a few years back and it was great. As he's not Asian, their excuse for interviewing him was that he invented "pimp fu." I also agree that "Petey Wheatstraw, the Devil's Son-in-Law" is one of the most amazing spectacles you will EVER see.
FUCK!!!!! by Charlie_Allnut	Oct 20th, 2008 05:53:54 PM
God I love those movies!!! My room mates and I discovered them in college about ten years ago and they offered endless entertainment. I always thought it was a shame that Rudy never became more widely known...I guess the mainstream just wasn't ready for his brand of humor. Rest in Peace Rudy, you are the man. Move ova and let me pass before I be puttin these hush puppies up your muthafuckin ass!!!
Bitch, are you fo real?!? by Manatee	Oct 20th, 2008 05:55:56 PM
Sad news, indeed. Rest easy, Rudy.

Goodnight sweet prince! by EmptyWalletProductions	Oct 20th, 2008 06:28:04 PM
Hell Is about to get its ass handed to it! Thanks for all the good times Mr. Moore!
Rudy Ray Moore to St. Peter at the pearly gates... by TylerDurden3395	Oct 20th, 2008 06:43:36 PM
Man move over and let me pass before I'll be pulling my Hush Puppies out yo' muthafuckin' ass!
DOLEMITE was awesome... ESPECIALLY WHEN by versatol	Oct 20th, 2008 07:02:20 PM
...the cop said something like "We see you and your fancy car and all your black bitches," and Dolemite replies "You forgot about the white ones!"
Met him, Great guy by hegele	Oct 20th, 2008 07:12:44 PM
He came to Louisville to sign autographs at my favorite video store Wild & Woolly. He was very charming and very cool. Later went to see his stand up. He'll be missed.
Finally an obit worth posting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!! by crackerfarmboy	Oct 20th, 2008 07:16:54 PM

Apologies then. I thought that you were some kind of James Joyce freak.
Very sad :-( by macheesmo3	Oct 20th, 2008 08:16:08 PM
I remember in Disco Godfather ( well the copy at my video store was titled Black Avenging Disco Godfather) he's outside the drug manufacturing hideout in full kung fu glory , and some guy goes jogging by. He stops the runner and says "Can you help me ? ..Man?" The jogger stops and says " What is it ?" Rudy pauses and says " Angeldust factory ....Man" The jogger nods " Let's kick some ass!" It reminds me of 64 oz bottles of Colt45 and a big ole joint!
Dolemite's my name... by Charlie_Allnut	Oct 20th, 2008 08:50:27 PM

Disco Godfather was awesome. RIP RRM
Put your weight on it! by Dollar Bird	Oct 20th, 2008 09:50:59 PM
Long ago, one of my pals came back from the video joint with "The Avenging Disco Godfather" and we all watched the movie in a sublime combination of amusement and amazement. We mined that movie for a zillion lines and repeated them for a long time. Still, to this day, I ask myself "What IS angel-dust?" RIP, man.
i have his autograph on a backscratcher by cheifchirpa3000	Oct 20th, 2008 10:37:16 PM
seen a bunch of his movies. r.i.p.
Biiiitch, are you for real? by ironburl	Oct 20th, 2008 11:00:15 PM
I saw RRM live in East Austin in a small nightclub on Montopolis, probably around 1993. The only reason I knew he was in town was a text-only old fashioned show poster that the bar had pasted up on some lightpoles on the East side. Rudy Ray personally sold his records, posters, and other assorted stuff in between sets. He told us he was doing a movie called Stagger Lee (must have fallen through). I'm pretty sure he did something mind altering between sets. He came back out and was trying to redo the same jokes he already told. It's was great fun though. I called the phone number on his business card and left a message saying that I thought he should come back to town and that I thought with some advertising or publicity he could make a lot more money. I was shocked to get a message on my answering machine from the legend himself. I think he thought that I was a promoter, or something. He was very friendly. He also sent me a postcard from Vegas. I mean, wtf? Who does that? He did come back to austin about a year later and did a sold out show on 6th street and a mobbed guest appearance at I Love Video. What a legend. You will be missed.
How'd you bitches let this happen? by Alonzo Mosely	Oct 20th, 2008 11:24:13 PM
I leave the interwebs for a few days and I come back to this... Can't trust you people with nuffin... Rudy Ray Moore is exactly why I love movies, rather than just like them a lot... Sure movies are an art form, that can compete with any others, but it is stuff like Dolemite that makes movies the greatest artform of them all... God bless you, and I hope God is light with the pimp hand...

HUMAN TORNADO POSTER OMFG!!! by Darth Philbin	Oct 21st, 2008 12:03:41 AM
Predicted the events of 9/11. Never forget.
I met Mr. Moore not to long ago... by JERRY HORROR	Oct 21st, 2008 12:37:26 AM
He was cool as fuck. He signed all our DVD'S and records. He even smoked a joint with us, which was rolled on a one sheet of "Truck Turner", the late Isaac Hayes classic. My friend and I even kept in touch periodically calling him. Rudy "Ray" Moore, was a pimp, a gentleman and loved him some good ass weed. I'll miss you Mr.Moore, God bless and may you no longer suffer. Real Love, for an even realer dude. www.myspace.com/jerryhorror
" Let me tell you a story bout a nigga named Eazy-E. He was havi by Dirk Shocker	Oct 21st, 2008 01:04:57 AM
Dolemite was so cool even the Godfather of West Coast Hip Hop had him on his record. Eazy-E called him self the devil son in law as an inspiration from Mr. Moore. RIP Muthaffuka!

(Avenging) Disco Godfather is probably my favorite bad movie ever - although the above quote is not from ADG.
Under 17 not admitted without a parent or a note from your jaile by Vern	Oct 21st, 2008 02:20:15 AM
That's what RRM said at the end of the radio spot for HUMAN TORNADO. Watch out mister, here comes a twister. I highly recommend the DOLEMITE soundtrack CD. I never got around to buying it until last year or so but I don't know what the fuck I was doing before that. Just from watching the movie I never noticed how funky the music is, and the album is very much in the spirit of Dolemite's crappy home made feel because the songs don't fade out, they just abruptly stop like somebody hit eject on the tape. Then at the end it has a bunch of radio spots, all narrated by Rudy. Every time I hear them I think they oughta do that for movies now. "Max Payne starring me, Mark Wahlberg, and that baaaad Mila Kunis. Rated PG-13, parental guidance suggested."
Damn it... by jaws8u	Oct 21st, 2008 03:33:23 AM
Where's my army of kung fu bitches? Dolemite will be missed.
Never saw any of his movies but RIP anyway. by Stalkeye	Oct 21st, 2008 04:43:43 AM
Also a shout-out to lead singer of the Four Tops,the late Levi Stubbs.They don't make R&B songs like they used to.Rest in Peace Brothas.

Almost, Dirk Shocker..... by westie	Oct 21st, 2008 06:20:38 AM
I think it was "Let me tell you a story of the bad-ass Easy-E. He was drinking whiskey and gin at the age of three." My first experience with Dolemite was in "The Big White Hype" when Damon (Jimmy 'The Grim Reaper' Roper)Wayans is watching it before his fight with Peter ('Irish' Terry Conklin) Berg. Dolemite screams a great line that sounds like "You rat-soup eatin' honky MOTHERFU@#%$!!!" Classic.
Damon Wayons "Mo Money" by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Oct 21st, 2008 07:25:43 AM
Wayans must have loved this movie because in addition to watching it in The Great White Hype, in Mo Money some guy, I think it was the nerdy black guy, was saying some smack and Wayans goes "Yeah, you do that Dolemite."

So long, you magnificent bastard. Dolemite was probably the third blaxploitation film I saw behind Shaft and The Thing with Two Heads. Good work my man ... good work.
RIP Dolemite by Darwyn	Oct 21st, 2008 11:00:24 AM
How have I not seen one of these? Well, I do have a contribution - I happened to notice at second 24/25 on the Human Tornado trailer, you see Dolemite's Donger. I'm just saying, I was surprised to see the nudity in these trailers, I was twice as surprised to see the Donger.

I just couldn't find my cassette for 5150 ( that's right, a cassete since I haven't bought it in CD ). I'm surprised someone here knows about the quote also and that my friend makes you cool with me.
Chiller Theatre Con by Dark Knight Lite	Oct 21st, 2008 11:47:09 PM
Not really into autographs, but saw Rudy Ray at the con a couple of years ago, and had to get a Dolemite repro poster signed. He was a real gentleman. This sucks.
He punched a hurricane and made it a breeze. by malificus	Oct 22nd, 2008 02:38:48 PM
Fists of fury and the heart of a poet, that's a rare combo right there.
