If anything it looks like more of a ripoff of "Meet the Parents" than "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner" (though maybe I missed Kramer's hijinks-filled director's cut of "Dinner"), and I can't really believe there was any need to credit the original film.

I think somebody should make a movie set at the White House in Washington, D.C. They could call it a sequel to "Casa Blanca." That means white house doesn't it?

A "race reversal" movie about the pre-Civil War period might be interesting. The black people could be the masters and the white people could be the slaves.
