 Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information
 Boomerang
| Of the woman Marcus appears to have had an intimate relationship with, who is the first? | "Boomerang" Pt. 1
|
Yvonne. Tisha Campbell played the revenge-crazed Yvonne, whose apartment is right next to Marcus'. Yvonne likes to call out from her patio and warn Marcus' dates of his intentions. Tisha co-starred with Martin Lawrence on the hit sitcom "Martin".
No. Marcus spent the first part of the date at his apartment laying the foundation for her to seduce him. He told her he hadn't dated in two years and that his fiancee cheated on him the day of their wedding.
$20. After Marcus first spots Christie walking her dog, he jumps up from his lunch date with Tyler and Gerard to chase after her. He encounters a well dressed couple holding a leash, buys it from them, and pretends to have lost his dog Kirby. Kirby was fictional.
| During the lunch date with Gerard and Marcus, the highly, racially sensitive Tyler gets food advice from a waitress. What item does she discuss that has Tyler convinced it's racism? | "Boomerang" Pt. 1
|
asparagus. She explains that the dish comes with asparagus "spears". Tyler is convinced that if he were white she would have said asparagus tips instead. To Tyler, everything is racial. Martin Lawrence pulls off a funny performance as the paranoid Tyler.
| When Christie arrives at her date with Marcus, she calls out for the fictional Kirby. Did Marcus explain his absence to her? | "Boomerang" Pt. 1
|
Yes. He told her Kirby had been found, but got caught under a truck and had some grease on his coat. Kirby was at the groomers during their date. Of course, we know Kirby never existed.
| Lady Eloise had a special interest in Marcus. So, she arranged a meeting at Chantreuse and invited him to her home. What is the name of Lady Eloise's home? | "Boomerang" Pt. 1
|
Lavender Hill. Marcus believed that if he allowed Lady Eloise to have her way with him, he'd be appointed head of Marketing for the company, after its merger with Chantrese.
Todd. He arranged for Marcus to arrive at Lavender Hill and snickered at Marcus during the entire evening. Todd was accustomed to Lady Elouise and her boy toys. Eartha Kitt played the eccentric Lady Eloise.
| During the meeting to discuss Strange's new fragrance, she offered up many inappropriate names for her perfume. Who was it that came up with the idea to call it simply Strange? | "Boomerang" Pt. 1
|
Marcus. Grace Jones played Strange. Strange was a wild woman who spoke her mind and loved her femininity. She wanted to name the perfume all sorts of synonyms for her female parts, but Marcus stepped in and took over just in time to calm her down. Nelson had a special affection for Strange and her particular type of female power.
| Marcus invited Jackie over for an informal business dinner at his apartment. This was Jackie's first acceptance of a date of any kind, and Marcus used it as an attempt to woo her, in his usual way. Which choice did NOT happen during that first date? | "Boomerang" Pt. 1
|
Jackie helped clean the dinner dishes. Jackie annoyed Marcus with her obvious lack of interest in his charm. She was pre-occupied with thoughts of the Knicks/Bulls basketball game, and asked to finish her dinner in front of the TV. It was Angela who helped Marcus with dinner dishes later in the movie. Despite his tried and true methods, Jackie was not falling for Marcus' charms. The fact was that Jackie was a female Marcus, and could not be played, no matter how many games he'd played in the past.
Debra. Whilst seducing Christie with reverse psychology, Marcus told her he had almost married two years previously. His soon to be wife, Debra, had cheated on him the day of the wedding with both his best man AND the minister! Christie was dense and saw through none of Marcus' obvious lies.
| In which "romantic" city did Marcus consummate his relationship with Jackie? | "Boomerang" Pt. 1
|
New Orleans. Marcus and Angela flew to New Orleans together for a sales meeting, and Jackie was meeting them there at a later time. On the plane, Marcus told Angela he thought that New Orleans must be a sexy town, but Angela described it as a romantic town you take someone you love.
None of these. Gerard could not make a decision on which take-out they should order in. At the end of the scene he apologizes to her for not being able to make up his mind, and causing them to miss their dinner. She tells him that the next time she'd take charge and order the food. They end the date with two kisses, one being a lip miss, and he says goodbye in a couple of extra languages.
| How much was the Lady Eloise company paying Strange to use her as a spokesperson? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
$1.2 million. We learn this after Strange throws a temper tantrum in the restaurant. She is having dinner with Jackie and Marcus and propositions Marcus. She'd heard great things about him from Jackie (and I'm sure knew about his encounter with Lady Eloise) and wanted her own turn. Marcus is in no way attracted to Strange and feigns being gay. She causes a huge scene and stomps to her limousine parked outside. Jackie follows her and asks what is wrong, and Strange replies nothing is wrong and she is not going to their tropical island commercial shoot. Jackie explains that if she is not on the plane she'll take back the "million two" she's paying her and sue her for every dime she's got.
| What is the name of the chemist who Strange insults during the meeting about her new fragrance? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
Lloyd. When he offers his sample, one he says tested well, she says it is garbage. Marcus runs after him and reassures him that his work will be used, despite Strange's reaction to it. Leonard Jackson played Lloyd the chemist. He can also be seen in "The Color Purple", "Eddie Murphy: Raw", "Conspiracy Theory", and in episodes of "The Jeffersons", "The Cosby Show" and "Law and Order".
Bony T. Chris Rock (Bony T) first starred alongside Eddie Murphy in "Beverly Hills Cop 2" as the valet at the Playboy mansion. Axel had this character park a huge piece of machinery for him at the mansion. Chris played a crack addict named Pookie in "New Jack City", and Albert in "CB4". Sometime during his HBO series "The Chris Rock Show", he bought himself a bright new smile, which he has talked about several times on the "Oprah Winfrey Show".
| After his break up with Jacqueline, Marcus was feeling depressed and insecure. His lack of focus caused him to allow Nelson to shoot Strange's commercial without any assistance. What was the tag line for Nelson's atrocious commercial? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
Strange, stinks so good!. Nelson's commercial was completely disgusting. He had Strange nude, skeletal, and writhing in a perfume birthing scene. While everyone in the room showed their distaste for the commercial, it was Lady Eloise who exclaimed "ridiculous". Jacqueline saved Marcus' job, but recommended he take several weeks off.
| Angela came up with an idea for a suitable Strange commercial. She teamed up with Marcus and the editor of their commercials to create an exciting depiction of Strange and her new perfume. What was the tag line of the new and improved commercial? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
Do Something Crazy!. Angela's idea was to take some of the footage of Strange's coming out party and add in some new film bits that showed her true nature. Strange is wild, exciting, and a little crazy. The commercial was received very well by Jacqueline who noticed, after the presentation, that Angela and Marcus had an intimate connection.
| When Marcus hosted Thanksgiving dinner at his condo, Gerard's parents came over. Upon meeting Angela, what did Gerard's father call her? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
Agatha. Gerard's mom commented that Angela was so pretty she reminded her of one of "Marcus' girls". The fabulous John Witherspoon and Bebe Drake played Gerard's eccentric parents. After dinner they spent an hour in Marcus' bathroom, where Gerard reported to Marcus they were "hitting it". Marcus thought that he meant smoking a joint, but Gerard meant sex.
| When everyone left Marcus' after their Thanksgiving dinner, Angela stayed behind to help clean up. After they sat down from cleaning, what TV show did the two watch and express a common interest in? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
Star Trek. All of the choices are TV series that aired in 1966, the same year that "Star Trek" debuted. Both admitted they were Trekkies, and Marcus went on to explain the "essence of the Trek".
| Angela is devastated after Marcus reunites with Jacqueline. She quits her job and takes a higher level position with the company's competition. Marcus sees Angela's art work on the side of bus, the man/woman silhouette embrace. What perfume was the art work linked to? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
Epiphany. Epiphany has more than one meaning, but for Angela this definition applies: A comprehension or perception of reality by means of a sudden intuitive realization (www.dictionary.com). She first showed the silhouette she'd painted to Marcus, at his condo. It was a man and a woman, in dark and light blue tones, set against an orange background. On the bus, the silhouette's had changed into dark blue and orange lovers set against a light blue background.
| Marcus took over teaching Angela's art class. When he was ready to commit totally to her, he took two of her students to see Angela at work. When the kids greeted Angela they mentioned how long it has been since they'd seen her. How long was it? | "Boomerang" Pt. 2
|
4 months 2 weeks. The two students were the same two we watched give their collage presentations for the class, when Angela was attempting to cheer Marcus up earlier in the movie. Students Kenny and Khanya were played by Kenny Blank and Khanya Mkhize.
Mkhize has guest starred on "Third Watch", "The Hughleys" and "Boston Public" since the year 2000. She also appeared in a Broadway play "The Piano Lesson".
Blank has enjoyed a bit more work since 1992's "Boomerang". He guest starred on "Living Single", "Moesha", "Freaks and Geeks", and "Static Shock". His films include "Dead Mead on Campus", "Delivering Milo" and "Evolution".
