    Adolfo “Shabba-Doo” Quiñones, star of the Breakin' movies, has died. You may remember him from such films as Breakin' and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo.

    :(

    Or, as I liked to call him: the dude with the hat!

    Was never really into the Breakin' movies, but I had a little bit of a teenage crush on Lucinda Dickey.

    And @Lanzman you ought to be ashamed of that title. Seriously.

    How Did This Get Made did an episode on Breakin' 2 not too long ago and they pointed out that as bad as the movie was, Shabba Doo had some serious cred in entertainment circles. (It's also like the first film appearance of Ice-T.)

    As much as I liked Turbo and Ozone (Adolfo "Shabba Doo" Quiñones and Michael "Boogaloo Shrimp" Chambers), the best breaker in the first movie was Bruno "Pop'n Taco" Falcon, member of Electro Rock (he wore the red beret).
