We have now witnessed the strength of street knowledge.

''who makes M&M's "" ""da white man'' This movie is a work of genius.

To be fair, people have pieced together conspiracies with even less evidence than this.

-"It's a symbol the medical field uses to this day!" -"I've seen it."

I can't get over the fact that he whips out the chalkboard just to write "M&M" on it and then doesn't touch it again afterwards

I love how they could have started at Anaconda Malt Liquor and came to the same conclusion

How the fuck did the writers come up with such an elaborate scene? True genius.

“Asclepius, of course!” Is one of the all time great comedy lines. It gets me every single time

"Now, as we all know, zodiological astronomy was created by the Greeks in 785 B.C." My ribs

I like how they're all mythical and historical buffs

I love how when BD says, "WAIT" he just contemplated ALL that in one seconds! =]

“785 is the area code for Topeka. Oh my God” Like his brains figured it out and his feelings had to catch up. Perfect delivery

What makes this scene even funnier: 785, the area code for TOPEKA, KANSAS didn't exist until 1997.

nobody talks about how aggravated BD gets when the lady answers, it’s one of the best parts.

This is probably the most logical conspiracy theory i have ever heard lol

Their Jeopardy-level history knowledge makes this convoluted brainstorm so much funnier.

This was strangely educational

When everyone in the hood majors in Greco-Roman history and mythology.

Dark Souls/Bloodborne Lore videos in a nutshell

The world's greatest philosophers, mathematicians and physicists ain't got shit on Black Dynamite and his crew!

That went from M&Ms to Roman God of War real quick.

When the teacher is confused about what you were doing the "Write out your equation" portion but even more confused how you got the right answer.

I don't think there's a joke in this movie that isn't damn funny. This movie and the show deserve more recognition.

This script is actually a work of genius. Michael Jai White had to do some serious research and be up on his shit to write this. LOL!!!

God damn it's been 11 years. And I still quote "Asclepius, of course." on a regular basis.

Love this scene because they could have saved all that time and just started with the Anaconda malt liquor slogan lol none of that stuff before had any play in the outcome of solving it lmao

Uh yeah thanks lady

Not even a Quantum Computer can process "It melts in your mouth" into "Anaconda Malt Liquor Give You Little... Richard:" that fast.

I love the "Yeah !... Thanks, lady..." line. White is so great when he has to suddenly be self-aware about how random that input was.

When I heard about the news that Little Richard died, this is the first thing that came to mind.

When someone asks me what Q Anon is, I show them this video and say “this but not played for laughs.”

stay woke

Thats what N.W.A means by Street Knowledge

i love the amount of random trivia these guys knew. lol

one of the most prolific and original scenes in cinematic history

I love this movie so god damn much. They could’ve just started with catch phrase for anaconda malt liquor but decided to completely throw it off the tracks with the absurd analogies. So good.

When you know the answer to a question but you gotta write it as an essay

''And 785 is the area code to Topeka. Oh, my God. 785 is the area code to Topeka, Kansas!'' get's me every time.🤣

I believe this was probably the first to spawn the illuminati confirmed videos

Whoever wrote the screenplay of this film should have received an Oscar nomination.

The logic of Black Dynamite is amazing.

Love this scene. Soon as it comes up I start grinning like an idiot because I know the next few minutes are golden.

Love that old lady. lol

"I SEEN IT"

This is BY FAR the best comedy movie in the last 30 years.

I love the way he kept dismissing what the old lady was saying.

"What she said" ....this movie is brilliant.

What “showing your work” looks and sounds like 😂😂😂

I love how he erases the board just to write m&ms

The fact that all of this makes sense is terrifyingly hilarious 😂😂😂😂

A professor made us watch this scene to explain the hilarity of conspiracy theories (which he vehemently argued didn’t merit the word “theory”). Still makes me laugh.

I was high as shit when I first saw this, it was amazing

"You take Mars and spell it backwards, drop the S." "Where's a pen?" "Ram" "gasps"

As many times as I've seen this movie, I never put it together. Code Kansas spelled backwards, dropping the S = A snake doc(tor). This scene was so brilliant.

Probably the best scene in the movie, if not the most surreal. The level of knowledge about Greco-Roman mythology is impressive.

This is so stupid and brilliant lol I love it ! So underrated

For anyone who wondered how conspiracy theories start, this video breaks it down

"Asclepius of course..." haha gets me every fucking time

"What is another word for 'Richard'?" 🤣🤣🤣 Genius

When they ran up in Gunsmokes apartment and his pants were around his ankles... I literally fell off the couch and laughed for 10 minutes on the floor. That shit was hilarious!

The reason I liked this scene in the movie as well as in the TV version is because in a lot of crime shows and mysteries, it seems all hope is lost. But they find out the answer to what they were looking for because of something that had nothing to do with the investigation. In this case, waffles that melt in your mouth is what led them to figuring out what Anaconda Malt Liquor was for.

Normally I'd point out that Topeka Kansas didn't adopt the 785 area code until 1997 (it was 913 before then), but anachronisms are par for the course in these kinds of movies...so we'll just call it a reverse anachronism.

"Who makes M&Ms?" "The WHITE man."

He figured it all out by listening to a rhyme about waffles? Awesome!!!!

The first time I saw this movie, I laughed. The second time; I laughed a lot. The third time; I laughed till I was in serious pain. Every time since; it's just too much. Genuinely one of the best comedies since the turn of the century.

"With snakes intertwined all around that bitch" Goddammit lmao

This is still one of the funniest scenes in movies.

Whatever group of writers were responsible for thus dialog, you jave my eternal gratitude.

This is one of the greatest scenes ever put to film and you can't convince me otherwise

Damn, I actually learned something from this lol.

Its a symbol the medical field uses to this day! "I've seen it"

"Yeah...thanks, lady." HA!!! All of this is hilarious!!!

The mental gymnastics and these guys are gold medals all around. I love history and they freaking got me lmao.

Well written.

This is like growing up in the ghetto with an actual good teacher lol

Man this move is just hilarious and criminally underrated.

*All at once* 785 BC!!

Spell it backwards. Drop the S.

the grandma really feels like an extra just decided to say some stuff and the actors went along with it, this movie is brilliant

Black Dynamite : What else melts in your mouth? Cream Corn : M&M's! Black Dynamite : Exactly. And not in your hands. And who makes M&M's? Militant #3 : Mars Candy Company make it. Yeah, yeah. Black Dynamite : And Mars is also... Saheed : The Roman God of War. Black Dynamite : Who is the Greek God of War? Militant 2 : Ares. Black Dynamite : Now, you take Mars and spell it backwards, drop the S. Cream Corn : Ram. That's right. And ram is the zodialogical sign for Aries. Oh! Now dig. Ares' half-sister is Athena. Black Dynamite : Now you're getting it. Cream Corn : Whoa, whoa, whoa. Athena, Athens. Saheed : Which is the capital of Greece. Black Dynamite : And as we all know, zodialogical astronomy was created by the Greeks in... Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : 785 B.C. Militant 2 : And 785 is the area code to Topeka. Oh, my God. 785 is the area code to Topeka, Kansas! Bullhorn , Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : Code Kansas! Black Dynamite : Now take that, spell it backwards and drop the S. Militant #3 : Snake doc. Snake doctor, yeah! Black Dynamite : Yes. And brothers, who is the Greek Demigod of Medicine who believed that snakes' tongues had mystical healing powers? Cream Corn : Aesculapius, of course. He had a staff with snakes intertwining all around that bitch. They called it Aesculapius' staff. It's a symbol the medical field uses to this day. Black Dynamite : Now, what legend involving snakes is in both Greek and Roman mythology? Now, come on. It involves Aesculapius' own father. Woman at table : Apollo. Black Dynamite : Yeah. Thanks, lady. Saheed : That's right. Apollo slew the serpent at Delphi, which was a big-ass snake. Black Dynamite : And what, brothers, is the biggest snake in the world? Woman at table : The South American anaconda. Black Dynamite : What she said. Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : Anaconda Malt Liquor! Black Dynamite : And what is the slogan for Anaconda Malt Liquor? Anaconda Malt Liquor gives you... Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : WHOOOOO! Black Dynamite : Gives you what? Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : WHOOOOO! Black Dynamite : And who else is famous for... Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : WHOOOOO! Little Richard! Black Dynamite : Who? Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : Little Richard! Black Dynamite : So, what they're really saying is... Cream Corn , Saheed , Militant 2 , Militant #3 : Anaconda Malt Liquor gives you... Little Richard? Black Dynamite : What is another word for Richard? [Black Dynamite crosses out 'Richard' on the blackboard. The gang look down on their pants]

I can only imagine the writers took the slogan and worked backwards for about twenty minutes to get to Melts In Your Mouth.

"And what is another word for Richard?" everyone looks down. LOL ROFL!!!!!!!!

So many perfect line deliveries in this scene

The writing for this scene is epic

Bullhorn looked lost in the background during this conversation. Lol

Anyone who watches Black Dynamite and then pays for some lousy Freberg and Seltzer parody is outta their mind. This has ruined parody flicks for me because none can ever match it. Closest is probably Galaxy Quest or maybe Austin Powers.

*Evel Knievel couldn't make some of those leaps.

Area code for Topeka Kansas. Code Kansas, drop the s, spell it backwards A Snake Doc A Snake Doctor. I had a hard time keeping up with that one.

Anaconda Malt Liquor gives you wooooo!🤣🤣🤣 Lmao

I love this movie and especially this scene. Not even at an international conference in Classical Studies one can find such erudite people as these guys. Professor Cornel West must be proud of them. Great, great movie, and great, great guys.

1:30 kills me every time

Actually, Asklepios' staff (the Asklepian) only had one snake coiled around it; the (winged) ROD with two snakes is the Caduceus, which belonged to Hermes, the Greek messenger god. The two were confused by the Medical Corps of the U.S. Army in 1902 and ever since the Caduceus has commonly been thought to be the symbol of medicine. Thought you might like to know!

When I first heard the thing about the m&m candies I thought "oh, i see. the villians hid drugs in candies that the orphans ate..." (they continue to talk) boy was i wrong.

This movie is honestly the best comedy I’ve seen in 10 years.

this has to be one of the funniest scenes of a film ever

This is nothing but pure genius writing i’m over here dying lmao

This movie was beyond epic. Just knowing that no matter what we do in life. We will never be as awesome as this movie

R.I.P. Little Richard

I love how they struggled to spell Mars backward without the S, but then they immediately recognized Asclepius.

I just realized this scene also foreshadowed the Richard Nixon reveal with Little Richard.
