especially in the superhero genre. Meteor Man was actually shown trying to help the city, and not just when it effected people in his personal life or when it was a big grandiose gesture for notoriety
@187Blackheart bc nowdays the BLACK dude has to be a 2 timing Pookie SEGGS addict,a neighborhood Dboy, a lowly henchmen,a kid who gets gunned down in a bad neighborhood, a police brutality victim, or an average asl looking sidekick with no star appeal and no real super powers. 😒💯💯💯💪🏾🧔🏾♂️
Too good of a role model. Gotta only promote negative Rapper role models as "progressive" then wonder why theirs an abundance of violence and negative stereotypes.
Love this movie and this scene is a perfect example of what a super hero would do; using his power to help people, not just fight villains from outer space.
Man, Robert Townsend is so underrated. As a kid I remember watching a movie called Hollywood Shuffle. He directed and starred in it, along with several other up and coming black actors. Of course it didn’t have any commercial success, but it did have a huge impact on me. A few years after Hollywood Shuffle, he starred in his own HBO special called Robert Townsend and His Partners in Crime. Keep it mind that this was during a time when we just didn’t get our own specials. If I’m not mistaken he went on to star in at least two more HBO specials, and they were hilariously funny. Then of course the instant classic, “The Five Heartbeats” finally brought him the long overdue commercial success that he deserved. The Meteor Man could’ve been so much better if he had the budget to match with the talent. But I appreciate what he was trying to do. There were no superheroes on the big screen that looked like us, so he created one. That was the whole point of The Meteor Man. Then there was “The Parent Hood” a show about a successful AA couple raising their kids, and addressing several social issues along the way. I could go on and on about this man’s contributions not only to the entertainment industry, but also to society. Simply put, Robert Townsend is a treasure.
The world knows my friend. Robert Townsend's comedy while limited in distribution, did reach the world. I watched him often. Him and the Wayans were my childhood. His specials were impossible to find here. I want to be clear, I live on the other side of the globe. I live in Perth Western Australia. He reached us even here
@keithmcclain5732 he was the man, he had his OWN mogul shih going BEFORE ALL these other dudes started trying to do it. Plus, he was the original real FIRST BLACK superhero 💯💯💯💪🏾🧔🏾♂️
I use to watch this movie over repeatedly on the VCR when I was 6 years old. Now I'm 36 years old. This scene was my favorite. It shows the true meaning of compassion and honor 💪🏾.
Robert Townsend thank you for making such childhood memories worth remembering I was a kid when I watched this was such a great movie and great scene retouching emotional showing the good and kindness still exist there's a hero within everyone
I'm Hispanic, and born in '90, Meteor Man was my childhood superhero. I grew up watching this movie. Still a favorite of mine. This is such a great scene.
My mom took me and my little brother to see this when it came out. I was 11 and my brother was 5. Now that my nephews are the same age I want to show them this movie.
This was such a wonderful scene in the film and one of the more practical ones that any film viewer can take just from doing their own home garden! In that seemingly small way of planting crops, one can see the benefits of physical growth for the purpose of feeding as opposed to the destructive and greedy motivations for most violent crimes in large cities that are about bringing someone else down to lift yourself up! That horrible zero sum game view of life that has sadly led to so much needless suffering on the planet! So it's nice to have this quiet scene with the jazz music in the background!
I always find it interesting to watch superpowers being applied in other ways besides punching really hard and outside of combat, this is one of those scenes that I always keep remembering.
Watched this movie as a kid in the 90's. Appreciated this since then. Even brought back memories playing this for others when we were in our 20's in the 2010's. This scene in particular is imo monumental in the film. Thank you Rob.
One of my favorite childhood movies. I remember going to see this at the theater back in 93’. I was only 5-6 years old at the time but I remember the feeling this movie gave me even then at that age. This is one of those classics that was slept on but it never gets old. It’s has many different genres all in one movie. Robert Townsend deserves his flowers for this and his many contributions to black cinema. Much respect. Praise is well deserved.
I remember seeing this in theaters twice when I was 3... i was born in 90 Still my favorite movie til this day I need to know the name of the Jazz song in the scene....
It's from Cliff Eidelman - Garden of Eatin'. I used to have it on my phone but now I can't find the RUclips link. He was the film composer for the movie.
This is one of the deepest, most touching, and overlooked scenes in any movie, EVER
It's so perfect,down to the score. This is really taking care of the community.
especially in the superhero genre. Meteor Man was actually shown trying to help the city, and not just when it effected people in his personal life or when it was a big grandiose gesture for notoriety
That’s a real exaggeration.
This was my hero he gave back to the community and he was unselfish and amazing
Facts
Rewatching this as an adult. Iunderstand why we don't see reruns or reviews of this movie. It was too positive.
Sad but true

Meteor Man a be arrested in days. A garden in the ghetto, no more Walmart.
It's not a movie it will soon become a reality
Exactly
A superhero who acknowledge the inner city is something u don't see
Nor will you ever see again..😢
@@joypadbandit624luke cage:...am I a joke to yall?
There's a quiet gentleness to this scene that really reinforces how he just wants to make the most of the gifts he's been given. Great.
❤❤❤
Great comment, hidden gem of the 90s
I love this scene it's nice and caring and peaceful why nobody shows this scene on youtube
Too good of a role model. Gotta only promote negative Rapper role models as "progressive" then wonder why theirs an abundance of violence and negative stereotypes.
RUclips Copyright crap
Right
@@cellzero RUclips sucks

Yes agreed!
Amazon Primer's The Boys, Is A Perfect representation of what a real superhero would do In the real world
@@UNSYSTEMATIC-xo9lkyour point?
Destruction is easy, but to create something new and foster prosperity is a true power.
I like that

Til this day, I still say a meteor man 2 could work
No. They ruined the character by putting politics and ideology throughout the movie, leaving aside the values he represented.
One of my favorite movies,
Same here, remember watching watching this from a VHS early in childhood.
Black hero for the people
This was my favorite part
I use to watch this movie over repeatedly on the VCR when I was 6 years old. Now I'm 36 years old. This scene was my favorite. It shows the true meaning of compassion and honor 💪🏾.

I absolutely love this scene. Especially the music. Even as a kid..I loved it
Robert Townsend the Legend !
Robert Townsend thank you for making such childhood memories worth remembering I was a kid when I watched this was such a great movie and great scene retouching emotional showing the good and kindness still exist there's a hero within everyone
This scene shows that Robert Townsend understand herorism and superheroes better than Alan Moore.
In his defense he did write For the Man Who Has Everything and Killing Joke(which was better than than animated movie)
I watched this movie in the theater, & 😭❤️😀 at the brilliance of this scene.
