I'm watching due date 2010 for the first time, Jamie Foxx refers to galiafanakis as "debarge", does anyone know why? The musical group? is it his perm? (sh.itjust.works)

Thanks. it's fine if nobody knows the answer to this or has not seen the movie, it's not a very good movie.

It's definitely the perm thing lol. I remember enjoying this movie for what it is.

I've never disliked seeing Zach galifianakis on screen, but the movie just wasn't put together correctly and Downey, who I feel was given the short end of this stick dialogue wise, played it too dour for too long.

Still worth it for galiafanakis fiends.

Could be a reference to El DeBarge, Jamie Foxx seems to have been in contact with him

That perm be it then, because they do make a whole separate perm joke.

Cool, thanks.
