Funniest Moment that was supposed to be serious?

My vote is for Tyra Banks' death scene. That blood looked like meat sauce and her 'why' screaming? Come on. This is such a hammy movie. Higher Learning makes Crash look mumble-core subtle.

Also, that school had the dumbest, most racist Campus security outside of Bob Jones University. They beat the *beep* out of the black guy who's saving everybody and then they are sympathetic to the mass murderer. That's like...Come on!

Oh and Busta Rhymes' war cry!

This whole movie cracked me up. You're not gonna find Fudge, Busta, and all Remy's peckerwood friends on a college campus. Fudge could exist, but it makes no sense to have him in college for 6 years. That completely invalidates his "poor poor me" attitude because he's obviously not footing the bill himself if he can continue to flunk courses like that. He'd have dropped out and gone back to community college or joined the military in real life.

Remy's friends were just rediculous. And Busta Rhymes could exist, but he'd have to be on an athletic scholarship.

"And Busta Rhymes could exist, but he'd have to be on an athletic scholarship."

You can't be on academic scholarship for 6 years. The NCAA has eligibility limits.

I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

Good choices. I think Remy taking the gun out on his roommate and Malick. So, so bad.

This film may seem cheesy, but to say that was the intent in 1995 is wrong.

I'm amazed at comments like this, this was not meant to be a "blaxploitation" type of film at all.

Those films were made in the 70s.

Someone else called it satire...LOL, it isn't satire.

Try researching what films actually fall into that genre, this isn't one of them.

This is a just a really bad film.

Lol the random blaxploitation music popping up everywhere cracked me up, I expected some black pimp to jump out and go 'DA-YUMMMMMMM!' or Pam Grier to appear somewhere, lol!

Absolutely the most laughable scene was Tyra Banks screaming "WHYYYYYY!!?" I actually burst out laughing and I wasn't hate watching the movie or anything. It was truly terrible but at the same time incredibly funny. Too bad they weren't going for humour in that scene.
