Funniest was when jackie chan said what is up my n word?

Minorities cannot be racist, only prejudiced. If it is said from one minority to another, it is not as big of a deal. If it is said by a white majority to any minority, then it is racist. True story.
RIO OLYMPICS!!!! August 5th!

The bartender got offended by lee's word but not by carters words
That was funny, the confused look on Lee's face when he said it again too

You hit the nail on the head. It's funny because we're supposed to be laughing at how dumb he is making those jokes. Now if one actually finds the jokes themselves funny or clever, they're on a different bus

I don't think people laugh at the jokes themselves but just the way Chris Tucker says them
You want tah fack wit me? You ah fACKING choiah boi compahed tu me ah choiah boi

That's an interesting question. I think it would actually be ok though, as long as the casting is the same.
I was going through some of quotes today, and was shocked at how many race-themed jokes there were. I wondered if it would fly today. But I think because Jackie Chan was the good guy and co-hero, it went over a lot better. Even though it was a black guy saying the jokes, Jackie Chan was ok with it, so why shouldn't everyone else be ok with it? I think the same reasoning would apply if the roles were reversed. It definitely helps that they're both minorities though.
Also though, it seemed to me that Chris Tucker was making fun of himself/black stereotypes throughout the film.

I'm cool with all of it.
But it's only accepted by the mainstream because it's a black guy and an Asian guy saying most of it.

I'm curious, hypothetically, what if the roles were reversed and it was Chan who was making the majority of the racial jokes about African Americans? Would people be just as cool with it as they are now?
Apparently I have always found that it is generally tolerated if one makes racial jokes about other races
EXCEPT
African Americans. That is a complete no-no and would immediately be labelled racist.
Why the double standards??? A black guy can makes jokes about whites and that would be called funny but a white guy making jokes about blacks is immediately deemed distasteful and racist.
Mr McGee, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry!

Ya I consider them racial, not racist. Carter didn't 'hate', just teasing with jokes.
I agree with the 'characters's perspective' . People hate South Park or call it racist when really its usually the character Cartman that is the reason. Its not like South Park or this movie started with a "hey kids, this show/movie is ment to hate the chinese/etc".

It depends on context and intent. It wouldn't be funny if he just stood still and said these random things to an Asian person that came by him.
So, its okay to laugh because you're seeing it from the characters perspective - One from his point of view and another retrospectivily.

No, the whole point of them is to make you laugh.
Harmony Korine is a true poet.

There's racism in the Bible - nothing wrong with it. My dad is a man of colour and he tells the best racist jokes (about people the same colour as him).
Please do not make negative comments about a film YOU NEVER SAW. It makes you look stupid.

I think it's mostly Tucker's delivery of those lines that make us laugh. Also take in to consideration the fact that Jackie Chan was fine with having the script inclusive of those jokes.

It's not racist to laugh at anything. Making a joke doesn't make you racist. Hating an ethnicity makes you racist.
"Oh, my God. Bear is driving! How can that be?!"

Carter: Yeeeaa Ive been looking for your sweet & sour chicken ass
LOL

We may not have a woodshed on board, but that boy is gonna get a whuppin' anyway!

He didn't say it to Juntao. Juntao was the alias of that British guy who worked with the Consol. The blonde Asian's guy was named Sung [or Sangsomething like that] and Lee said that "Blackenese" line to the guy who was escorting him upstairs.

LOL! But, it was Carter who started it in the beginning of RH2, when he asked if they were doing another job and he said 'I'll b!tchslap you back to Beijing.' LOL!
LMAO! They'll cut off our eggrolls!! Cut off our eggrolls??! Hell, no!!
"I am the ultimate badass, you do not wanna *beep* wit' me!" Hudson in Aliens.

The funniest racist comment wasn't even said by Carter. It was by Lee
"I'll bitch slap you back to Africa!"
"Believe me. I tied my own shoes once. It is an overrated experience."

Of course it's okay! I'm azn and I find the jokes super funny
Bitchin

I couldn't stop laughing when he told Juntao he was Blackinese. Now THAT was funny.
I'm blonde! My IQ just dropped 20 points!

Don't forget one of his funniest racist lines"I'll come knock that hat off you, Chin"! TOO FUNNY!
"Man-O-War started rattlin' yesterday and threw a kid on its head".

Hard question. Many opinions. Well, it's not racist to laugh at those jokes. It might be alright as long as you don't say them, because it's offensive, of course.
