OMGWTFBLAXPLOITATION

[inmyriadbits]

So I'm visiting Katie, and she has to watch Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song, a blaxploitation film from 1971 (she's watching in fast-forward, which makes it even more ridiculous with the chipmunk voices). And there's this biker guy who looks oddly familiar, so we look him up on IMDB.

AND IT'S FUCKING ADMIRAL FITZWALLACE FROM THE WEST WING. (also Uncle Burton Guster from Psych. See?)

My mind, it is blown.

I love him, too, and he really has! He was in that movie, Roots, Die Hard 2, TWW...the man's all over the place.

He'll always be J.J.'s dad on Good Times to me. I grew up watching it in syndication, and it's always the first thing I think of.
