Dave Chapelle's Lines

Did anyone else notice the edit job for Chapelle's lines? I think he says some more profane words than what come up, and I think they did this so it wouldn't be rated R. Anyone...?

Yea, I noticed that like when Dave says "Why the frig are we whispering?" (In the alleyway with Miles). When I saw this movie on TV I thought that it was just someone trying to censor the f-word, but then I rented the movie and saw that Chapelle really did use that line in the actual movie. I never thought about what you said, but it makes sense.

Yeah, I think there was probably some severe editing done to the screenplay in order to scrape by with an "PG-17" rating.
