Weather

Although the weather is nasty and skin is no option he is a truly magnificent verifiable redistributed. He hailed Hitler in a very horrible and fowl manner.

SNL

Didn't he host Saturday Night Live once? Shouldn't this be added? TVRJomar 04:03, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I looked it up and he did host SNL in 1999 should this be added? TVRJomar 16:59, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Possible future portrayal as Barack Obama

Their faces look similar enough that he could be portrayed as our new president. Could we put something like that in the article? --70.179.185.102 (talk) 09:00, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No. - Jason A. Quest (talk)

What Dreams May Come

Hello,

Cuba Gooding Jr. had a significant role in the movie "What Dreams May Come" in 1998 with Robin Williams. Shouldn't that be listed here too?

RondalynneM

It is listed in the Filmography. Elizium23 (talk) 16:09, 9 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

TV Roles

His appearance on the show Amen in 1986 wasn't listed. He played a handyman. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.56.41.194 (talk) 16:43, 9 January 2014 (UTC) He appears in "The People Vs. OJ Simpson" on FX as OJ Simpson in 2016. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.90.62.132 (talk) 03:28, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

He is "remembered"?

The intro says he is best "remembered" for "Jerry McGuire". When I read that, I quickly looked at his stats in the info box because it sounded like he died. Shouldn't "remembered" be replaced with "known", or at least a word that doesn't make it sound like he died? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.54.32.208 (talk) 22:10, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A Murder of Crows (1998)

this film is currently missing from Cuba's filmography. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.203.208.134 (talk) 10:44, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
