Whoopi started out doing standup, fam....that's her foundation. It's the main reason she blew up, because of her comedy special on HBO back in the day.
Its safe to say the Tiffany Haddish experiment has failed

Yes I didn’t know that.
She should still remake Whoopi movies
Lala Milan from social media is funnier than her. She does the same loud ghetto black girl shtick but better.
she was just on the breakfast club so she might be on the come up and take some of Tiffany's roles in future

Agreed....if she remade "Sister Act" with some new R&B girl, it might do numbers.Yes I didn’t know that.

I remember when she was in the Rogansphere as a stand up and her main claim to fame was she could queef on command and did so into mics. So when she suddenly became an it girl in Hollywood I was and still am wtf
it does not matter, she is a working comedian working her lane
Budget $19 million
Box office $33.5 million
Budget $38 million
Box office $15.9 million
Budget $29 million
Box office $26.6 million
I've excluded the animated movies she was in because she wasn't the lead
But aside from Night School [which can be largely attributed to Kevin Hart] the 3 movies above she was lead or co-lead and they all flopped.
Her recent Netflix stand up special didn't really make any waves either, no one i know personally has talked about it or watched it for that matter.

Besides Like a Boss, the examples provided had shytty promotion. I'm a little shocked that one didn't do better due to the cast, but it is what it is. I remember her when she was on that TV1 stand-up joint and that was damn near 15 years ago. She's found her lane as the nut ass friend of the straight shooter, but I understand if she wants to try new roles.

I would argue that most comedians became movie stars based on a personality not their ability to act. No one expects Chevy Chase or Will Farrell to act like anything other than themselves. Adam Sandler, Eddie Murphy, Robin Williams, and Chris Rock (who arguably still struggles with versatility) are exceptions. Even Martin Lawrenceand Chris Tucker have the same schitck in different movie roles. The critique here doesn't make sense to me. You may not like her schitck but having one has been the bread and butter for most comedic actors since the beginning.
