I haven’t seen it yet … but the casting looks spot on …. lawd
Hey Jeennnaayy, I know they did well, except I see no one with the classic Nike Cortez’s on…
I didn’t get a chance to see it yet, but everyone that has seen it, had nothing but great reviews. I’ll definately be catching it this weekend, no if’s, and’s and but’s about it.
It does…Lifetime should should take notes
So happy for them, good film!
I have not heard not one bad review about this movie!!!
Iowa?
congrats to them
This movie brought me so much joy! I need to own it once it comes out. I really want to see it again. *whispers* May find it online. Should be okay since I paid to see it the first time, right?
I love me some ice cube
This is great, I’m sure it didn’t rank as high in some markets do to bootleg man. But you here it from me..
Hides in Kona….
hey lady
right not like that lifetime special
My doorter & I were talking about going to see it again too ?
Hey luv! *hugs*
I really wanna discuss the foolishness going on with Terrence Howard divorce hearing… Watch the light bright green eye ones…. They’ll get chu every time… Gary Dourdan… I just hope Michael Ealy is the exception, not the rule
So who gave Eazy E the HIV? And how many people did he infect?
Carry on ….
Suge Knight….and none.
Am I the only one (I already know I’m not but…) who thinks it’s strange that NONE of Eazy’s kids or the mommas have HIV or Aids?
Every time I see this post I wanna say Straight Outta Lowcash. Oh I’m the only one who loves CB4 okay
Please give us the education. I had no idea he was getting a divorce.
Girll.. I have not seen the movie.. never cared.. I was a 2nd or 3rd grader when Eazy died (way before my first human growth class) and even back THEN I was thinking…hmmm…wonder where he caught it or who he gave it to? I been waiting for YEARS
You just described my lil bad azz nephew ?
I’m waiting for it come on Cable – I only watch sci-fi movies at the theatres…. for that big screen effect – movies lke this I enjoy better in the comfort of my home… I’ve heard nothing but good things about it from everyone who’s seen it – and they say blacks can’t sell out drama – they only market comedies to us cause apparently they think we have the attention span of a dead guppy….
dont nobody else come here talking bout what “THEY” read krakkkaz gotta say…..them Krakkkaz DO NOT have the answers Sway
I’m glad !! I didn’t think I wanted to go see this but now I do!
probably some hooker family that gave it to Majic…
laughing my BUTT off…My grandma usta say that. That tickled me so.
I have not seen it either, but I do plan to go. But yeah, I think he was injected like Suge Knight said in an interview he did. By either Suge or his peoples! That’s why he went down to the set all mad running people over. Suge don’t want the truth to get out.
AWSOME!!!1
No not strange at all – perhaps he was playing for the other team…. and somewhere a gay angel just got its wings… but Majic’s wife Cookie didn’t get the package either….
Magic paid for the cure. I believe it!!!
Girl!!! Me too??
rofl…..SUGE cray he gonna get 100 years ALL CUZ he didnt want folk to know he gave Eazy E the aids?
CU!!
Sort of off topic but not. So my cousin decides he wants to capitalize off this Straight Outta thang and has begun to sell t-shirts with the saying and whatever set you claim. I’m sorry cuzzo but I can not contribute to this….
Really, who knows why he went down to the set and ran that man over. HE is crazy in the head!!! It could be true though….
LA?
My daughter was just saying last nite she wanted some gear. Where y’all located?
Well he divorced his wife in July. But this is his second wife. She wants a cut of his empire check. The production co asked for a hearing so they’d know who to send $$ to (him/her). Well somehow its become relative that they were dpretty much living a bobby/Whitney life 10x over.
TH threatening to kill her, kill her new man, kill himself. He’s pretty much just doing the most and should have several seats that come with a straight jacket
he ain’t cured I bet every 30 days his nut sac cinches up all tight and his penis disappears…..
What happened with these 2? And I think Michael ealy’s already a dog cause he waited forever to tell us or taraji he was married, letting taraji flirt endlessly and having swooning girls heartbroken worldwide lol.
so you just went against the grain and missed that big ass ATLANTA…lol
:/
I want to see this, but I don’t want to hire a sitter to go. Welp, looks like I’ll have to wait until my birthday.
Guys..I am in love with the NOLA accent….I wish my man had one…
I heard she did.
….
Lmao, I didn’t even see that. I just guessed. Oh chit, just scrolled up. I really did miss it-twice lol.
Watch some promo interviews for tlam on YouTube. Taraji does not like him lol and this probably why ?? there’s this one where they are having a side convo and the interviewer thinks they are talking to her. Taraji was like nawl then was cutting her eyes at Michael fierce…
HAHAHA..I see..I was like ” Uh Miss….”
that fool threw that chit out there, now faintin and chit in court. lol
Leave Gary crackhead Dourdan out of this. That was/is my boo…..after he gets it together.
WHITTY what are you talkn about? I love to live in Bahamas.
I was close though. LA was second for some reason. Aren’t the majority of people living there Mexicans and rich folks though?
That dude is something else, we went to high school together( he is 3 yrs older than me). I would see him in the hallways at school he was very handsome but he didn’t do it for me but the girls loved him. His brother Tyrone(who has green eyes too) graduated with me. They had a very strange family and I could go on but his dad was a hot mess and would come up to the school and go in on his kids. They were raised Jehovah Witness and he was very strict on all of them. Later, they all became very “controlling” over their women too, I will stop at that!
*dead* & *snatches your keyboar*
Never heard it ? I would like to visit though. What goes on outta state. . .
Hey Boot, I left my info yesterday…Did you get your final word?
I heard back from other company yesterday and was able to get what I asked, so now I’m waiting to see if the company wants to interview me.
I say do it, but market it to everyone. Get in where you fit in.
@Bootcampgirl – he cold be do something worse. Is he really exploiting anything or anyone?
I’m here but working is not what I’m doing.
And then there is that…Hey Hunti
Had a dude from NOLA. He was the treated me like a queen and was an amazing guy. Had 8 inches….and couldn’t work with it. Le weep! All that meat gone to waste. *runs out the room like Nessa*
That damn kermit has been through it…he look like a pair of linty draws.
Lol, I forget the movie they were doing promo for, but she was going on about how respectful he was during scenes where he had to touch her, all for us to find out he had a whole damn baby a few months later. Idk what people see in him though. Ima run away after sayin I think future is cuter.
Google video of Suge on Jimmy Kimmel late night show. He said ninjas injected him with a needle.
My sentiments exactly.
Bwhahahaha at all that meat gone to waste. It’s the absolute worst. Daddy NOstrokes.
Lmao.
G-d…I think his wife or one the BMs stated that EZ wasn’t going to stop being a ho…G-d took him fast and was looking for his family. Back then
@buttercup – maybe he was being gentle
I was even in denial. I thought that the first time was bad because we’d been drinking. The second time, I even tried to make it work and ride that thing on out, but he couldn’t handle it. Just heartbreaking!
So a eggroll huh??
Nope. He didn’t have any rhythm and did that “get stuck” thing every 27 seconds. THEE. WORST.
I mean what he do…or maybe he was wrong..
I think he for sure passed it along to a few. As much raw fugging he was doing?!?! SHIIIDDDD…They said the clinics were on overload with testing once it hit the news that he had it. I think people just aren’t admitting it. A groupie or two got got.
matter of fact I’m stuck one the levels of this damn game. Kona
He’s in Jersey, how can I get in touch with you to give you his info…
Speaking of NOLA accent. Did y’all discuss Toya wrights brothers robbing a jewelry store?
I can see your point..
Lol! I don’t think he was injected. That nig was fugging whoever, whenever. I wouldn’t be surprised if he got a lil too freaky and let another gender up in the mix….by way of tranny *sips coffee*
I did and I didn’t..Good news about the other company you WILL get that interview…
I have not seen it yet.,,,,I hear its a must see!
Nope cause I for sure been trying to figure this out.
Yeah, like what was the malfunction? Did it get soft? Too boring? #tellmemore
Which one? I miss their show.
No
Gahl you know I can’t read in between lines…Find that address I sent you.
I pray I do, I need enough to cover my son’s tuition and and a gazebo. This is exactly how the “others” think. They diversify their funds and send they kids to school in almost new cars, they don’t work until they jr year.
Shat they ain’t the one’s that the cops let off 600 bullets is they??? You would have thought the robbers stole they stuff…
Hey boo… I’m not here for anything today. Still debating if I’m going to hit the road tonight or not.
Phuck, not rudy, right? In high school when I watched her show and saw him, I wanted to do nothing else but teleport into his bed. Oh Rudy ?
yes, just like big man….I still can’t beleive Cookie didn’t get it… and she was preg too.. lawd.
I seen that and somebody said under her post why you out partying and your brothers just got locked up… she said honey they grown that ain’t none of my business.
Best Movie Ever. But you cant judge by me I also like Pootie Tang.
Address, I ain’t get that, let me see if I can find it in these notifications..
The last interview I went on it was 3 hours. I didn’t even see a brown person…They didn’t have the nerve to call me and say we didn’t choose you, but they also didn’t want to pay the salary I wanted. Plus this pace is only 7.8 miles from my home.
CARTWHEEL
Yeah, he used to be mine too, ole cracky self-but he fine, tho.
Lolololol
He didn’t have any rhythm and didn’t know how to relax and take this sweet loving. He kept “getting stuck.” Ya know, how dudes do when it’s too good for them. And the worst of the worst…..He jackhammered me.
600 bullets? Why so gruesome? If I was a cop, I’d let everybody who committed a crime live so I can see them later in court. Why kill them? That’s crazy and heartless.
Where you going?
Oh, you couldn’t hang.
Kona
but he couldn’t handle it
*********************
Now this right here is what is called a damn shame. SHAME <said like Tyrese song
***Dead*** straight forward.
We deep in LA.
I didn’t read the whole write-up, all I read was 600 bullets and Robbery and I was like gotdamn…600 could have hit all kinds of innocent bystanders for shat that wasn’t theirs..
No but Toya said that it that man and I don’t have anything to do with it.
Oh, gotcha. Not the jackhammering though. They swear that chit feels good ? Mine likes to stop every 3 pumps when he’s about to finish. I HATE that.
shut the front door.
I am so hungry…I want all the rolls lol
WELLL…..
I said this just the other day. Saw her on Unsung talkin’ about Bone Thugs…and I’m wonderin’ if ur his widow, how did u not get infected?
I can take and don’t mind a good beating. Jackhammering is never okay. If you know someone who has experienced or have experienced jackhammering, please get her help fast. Dial 1-800-SLOW-DOWN.
well she aint lie.
Walter & either Casey or Rudy I don’t remember which.
LMBO, just messing that painful and so unnecessary, especially if you got a good package. My doctor said start on top still you can handle it…
Cinnamon rolls in the microwave don’t sound bad. Maybe I’ll have 2 for lunch ? That’s my damn problem, I just gained a pound too, so I’m 169 now. Bouta eat my pain away.
Th accent is so…hood….don’t get me wrong they are very smart but whenever I hear I think some trap straight phucking…but sads on his missing meat stroke..
smdh
I hate that! ??
Girl I trying to lose wt but carb wont let me be great.
Just dip dropping everywhere.
Swee baby yellow Jose Hernandez. The other gender….You think he was that freaky
Eazy E died from complications due to AIDS… by the time he went to the hospital, he was gravely ill. The AIDS incubation period can be a few months or many, many years.
While female-to-male AIDS transmission is less likely to occur, we all know it happens; especially, if the man is uncircumcised or has a STI that causes sores on his genitals, making it easier for him to contract the disease.
The other likelihood is that Eazy was infected during homosexual sex. In this scenario, the man who bottoms has a greater risk of being infected.
dead
Proud of my peeps! Sn: my life on hold till Power come bck wit season 3. Lol
A childhood friend died last Thursday and the funeral is tomm at 11. So I debating to take this 3.5 trip to Gawga for it.
Walter and Casey
Smfh, that’s sad. Right, what if they did hit someone? Where were these cops when they got dylann? That’s who should be shot like that. You woulda thought they stole from fort Knox.
…..
Hopefully, he’s found someone who has more patience than I had. He had SEW much potential.
I kinda had mixed feelings on that because if I got it my brother got it. #shrug As long as he ain’t a dope fiend or nothing ?
My momma confused Michael Ealy with Gary…I almost slapped her…Don’t you eva!!
If it ain’t the carbs, its the damn fructose or sodium or something else. It’s worse cause I don’t eat veggies and I damn sure ain’t here for gluten free stuff.
Lmfao. Thanks for the number.
Dawg….stop getting married enough…like you’re crazy and you keep beating up Lucy Lu(s) and they dont like it.
Bwhahahaha at getting stuck. I know exactly what you mean, and don’t move when they’re stuck to get them back going. Fool mess around and buss right then.
Oh, I never been there lol. I did hear about that being the go-to immigrant spot.
me and sodium grew up together. she was my ride or die but I had to leave her.
Cube and Eazy wore Cortez in the movie
Terrence seems like the type to be crazy without the GoodT peen…like he’ll talk you out your draws but once you get them, its like whe’ is at tho?
Interesting! That explains a lot actually… Reminds me of the Jacksons. Same religion, controlling dad, kids in dysfunctional married relationships.
the movie is good I laughed song and cried big ups for showing how suge knight was and still is a big bully
DEAD
Lmao, I’ve been tryna slow down on the salt. My dumb self didn’t know until last week that salt retains water.
tami graphic is so dam wrong the whole dmv was sold out the whole weekend
I mean I’m sure if they had a bail she would get them out but at some point you have to exercise tough love. She tried to save them all. You can’t keep spending your soon to be ending child support and club appearance money on ninjas that’s determined to be ninjas.
Sorry but I aint NEVER trusted a light/cat eyed nicca. I feel about them the way @Man felt about men smiling and showing they back teeth. CANT BE TUSTED.
I absolutely loved it.
Don’t stop now. Hell keep going.
Did his deddy wear slips like Marvin Gay deddy?
not I says this cat. and I most def dont care for him since he threw them babie out the window.
Well why did they rob the store? Are they on that white, or just being stupid, or real life broke?
wonders if there are any beepers in the movie and if so where the hell did they find them.
It was like 4 of them calling themselves having a crime gang or some ish.. Police tracked the ish down on social media. Come on upstairs so we can be petty together.
Fawkdapolize!
STOP! Don’t do it! We need to support each other.
#getThisCandyOffmyDesk
O I C said the blind man. Jackhammering I call this fugging like a rabbit.
……………………
I love this gif. I have fallen in love with O’Shea (Ice Cube) and Jason Mitchell (Eazy E). I need for their careers to go up from here. And I mean quick. They better have scripts coming out the ears.
Me either. What babies did he throw out the window? ?
No problem taking it off your hands. See, I’m supportive.
#chocolateonlyphuckskittles
In fairness to Lifetime they ain’t got 29 milli to throw into a movie. They can’t afford to hire F. Gary Gray as a director.
Go to the movies again. Show them the power of the black dollar. That way MAYBE we will get some more blockbusters with black casts instead of the low budget fare they normally feed us. I’m going again.
Why do we have to wait til June *cries out loud*
I read one but they was clearly a hater.
it was both of them right?
Magic wife ain’t got it either. Maybe Eazy was on the road to much they barely fugged.
Terrence has said that his daddy was extremely abusive. And not just to them. He’d whoop a nucca in the skreet for the smallest of reasons as well.
What dat mean? They both fine as the day is long and Gary ain’t 5 feet tall like Mike.
Chile that scene ripped my heart out. I ain’t NEVA got to see that movie again.
Gray looks a mess without tricks of TV
I miss this Gary
Das ok doe. He got a good foundation to start wit. Soon as he go to rehab he gone be back to Shazza fine.
Agreed.
hmm Shazza ….so damn fine
Don’t do drop kick bun out your hand. Go for a walk. take all your clothes off and dress on a some pants. Drink some water.
Has anyone seen that nucca on this season of ANTM? If you ain’t Google him. Them ice blue eyes ain’t nothin nice and yes, they real. *shivers*
My heart breaks for Terrance Howard. Now the newest wife has filed for divorce after a year. He has no luck with non black women.
Going tonite!!! $5 dollar day at the movie theater
Bloop, I guess I need to take my ass to go see the movie…LOL
Agree 100%, we from the same hood Tammie! Terrance would cross over E.154th and attend our house parties, stand on the wall with his Members only jacket and always had some slick con going. His voice was always irking and those knees knocked like Ricky Rosay. He was the type of dude that would call you names that would put Too Short to shame if you ignored his cat calls.
He cant stay out of rehab
Some hussy… a lot
He got it from a groupie. Knew he had it but kept fuggin
I own a pair
Such a GOOD MOVIE LOOOVE ICE CUBE i just adore him his son did a great job. Im going to see it again.
i think he got thru drug use
???? bravo to my city Atlanta represents very well!!
Well that’s embarrassing especially for a city that’s home of MLK.
The top 7 theatres are in California except number 1! Atlanta! My neighborhood theatre Edwards Long Beach represented!!! We couldn’t hear nothing but we represented!
It was a great movie. Im going to go see it again this weekend. The music was off the chain coming through that sorround sound. And that man played Eazy E. A plus plus
Now the LA police are afraid theyre being shown in a bad light…naw, ninjas, movies don’t put you in a bad light, killing black folks for no reason puts you in a bad light!
That’s what’s up….a lot of Cali’s ppl moved to the A in the 90’s to escape what was going on in LA…a lot my my friends in school were from around various parts of the area….
I felt this way too….had a young mom so I remember her bumping NWA and I grew up listening to Snoop and Dre..
straight out of campton, not my type of movie but not surprised it made that much at the box office. Black people seem to love movies about ghetto life.
We can flood the movie ticket booths but can’t find our way to the voting booths…. okay.
you can add 2, 3,4 & 7 to get the City, but it looks like ATL has the highest single theatre. Whatever the case, that’s great
I never likes these West Coast rappers, they killed Tupac and Biggie! I remember how the hood changed after NWA, Ice T was not as popular, those dudes were ruthless. Membership to the Bloods and Crips went up- you couldn’t walk down the street with red or blue on the East coast because every body wanted to be hard and angry like the fools on the West Coast. Before that rap was uplifting like KRS-One and Public Enemy. Left coast messed up hip hop! As soon as the music changed the killing started, we used to get along! young black men’s mortality rates went up 100%, funeral homes had waiting lists because they couldn’t keep up with the murders. And yes, they shot up the theatres, we would wait 2 weeks to go see hood movies because opening weekend was like a shooting range.
mvsnap.com
ugh.
Seriously – u have made some good points!!!!!!!!!
the most accurate representation of what NWA really was is CB4
SHE IS A DUDE
CATFISH ALERT
EAZY WAS GAY, IT is nearly impossible for a straight man to contract it
cmon,ow ,your engaging in nigga thinking.
Excuse me?
ha just posted that as soon as i arrived here, people forget how ridiculous their gangter persona was, easy claimed in an interview to have killed 7-10 people he couldn’t remember exactly,lol they told stories in the first person and as hammer said on arsenic ” kids think these guys kill 20 people on the way to the show”
know you on crack……talkin bout business
meanwhile mc ren is working construction, smh
I went to see it and love it. they all are believable in their roles. I love the ending part best when eazy e reacted to his life being over because regardless of how we live we still want to live a long time and enjoy life.
Yes, my address of where I live and work and my information is listed here. This is my photo here so it’s going to identify me.
Not surprise ATL has always been the wannabe city since back in the day. Lol
Thanks! I never considered that possibility. I never thought of him as an intravenous drug user.
? LOL
Aye yall? I was school shopping for the kids, and the cashier said Compton doesn’t even have a theater ? how does A ENTIRE CITY not have a theater? Any 1 from Cali,come thru and school me please?
Me too I’m goin too LOL
Saw it yesterday. It was really good.
Yeah they did excellent. I liked dre’s character too.
i went to #6. We dont have a movie theatre in Compton so Long beach is the closest.
I didn’t see them
Yep oshea junior did very well. I think they should have gotten a light brown skinned dude to play eazy. We all know he wasnt chocolate. This movie painted dre and cube in the best light possible. Great movie
We saw it this past Monday and loved it! Will definitely see it again…
I plan to go see it too ! Thanks for letting me know
