Neon Boudeaux
It is not that Shaquille O’Neal stunk as Neon Boudeaux in “Blue Chips”. The role called for a mumbling beast of a man who could make opponents look like small children, and Shaq could do that easily. Basically, it wasn’t a stretch for him and though he received second billing on the movie poster, he really did not have that many lines. Blue Chips was a modest success, and though it was not critically praised, little negative attention was heaped on the seven footer.
Perhaps because of this, we got Kazaam and Shaq-Fu; which were two of the worst abortions in film and video games respectively. Had we known that would have happened, perhaps the critics would have roasted the Neon character, just to prevent him from giving Hollywood another shot.
