I was shocked to learn this evening that Wesley Snipes is going to prison for tax evasion. Snipes was sentenced to three years in prison for failure to file tax returns. Apparently Snipes failed to pay more than $15 million in income tax returns by sending money to overseas accounts. Why Wesley Snipes tried to mess with the IRS is a complete mystery to me. Everyone knows you can’t get away from paying taxes. No matter how long it takes, they will get you. In any case, being a big Wesley Snipes fan myself, I am sad to hear that he is going to prison. It means we won’t see him in great movies like “The Marksman” and “The Detonator” for a long time. And this is a sad fact. So, in honor of Snipes’ career so far, I have decided to compile a list of some of his better scenes.

To Wong Foo…

Who doesn’t enjoy watching Wesley Snipes and Patrick Swayze put on make up and dress in drag? I’m amazed that Snipes took no hit to his tough guy image with this movie. He just kept on making movies and kicking butt like “To Wong Foo” never happened.

Wesley Snipes Homage

I have no idea how to describe this other than to say it’s a montage of Wesley Snipes photos played to “You Are So Beautiful”.

New Jack City

Wesley Snipes as drug lord Nino Brown, one of his greatest roles.

“Sit yo five dollar ass down, before I make change.”

Demolition Man

It’s the final fight from Demolition Man.  Gotta love Snipes sporting the blond ‘do.

White Men Can’t Jump

Marques Johnson was probably the best basketball player to ever live.

Jungle Fever

I’ve got Jungle Fever!
