Uncle Tomfoolery: As expected from a Chris Tucker character, Franklin is a black character whose role is to serve as comic relief by showing the traits that characterize some of the stereotypes of black men. | |

Ignore the Disability | |
| Money Talks / int_e6382176 | comment |
Ignore the Disability: Hilarious variant. Before walking into his rehearsal dinner, Russell tells Hatchett not to mention his fiancee's weight. The instant the (incredibly hot) fiancee comes to the door, Hatchett immediately says "You're fat" to her chagrin. He then clarifies that he meant "P-H-A-T: pretty, hot, and tempting." | |
