''Pootie Tang'' is a 2001 {{Blaxploitation}} AffectionateParody written and directed by Creator/LouisCK. Based on a character who originally appeared on ''Series/TheChrisRockShow'', Pootie Tang is an unintelligible urban folk hero who [[DontMakeMeTakeMyBeltOff whups people with his]] [[AmuletOfConcentratedAwesome magic belt]]. The head of corporate America doesn't like the fact that Pootie's {{public service announcement}}s have persuaded children to stop buying tobacco, fast food and malt liquor. So he sics his unlikely FemmeFatale girlfriend on Pootie to bring the man down a notch. It's up to Pootie and his main girl, Biggie Shorty, to get Pootie's groove back and stop Corporate America from using Pootie's likeness to corrupt the children.
