Cant believe they ruined "Alex Cross" with Tyler Perry in it!

[Pool_Shark]

I saw that same clip, awful. 'Kiss The Girls', 'Roses Are Red', 'Pop the Weasel', 'Violets Are Blue', I read all of them up to, and including 'Mary Mary', that one was pretty weak, like you noticed, there was just kind of a story frame work, and it didn't involve you like the rest. I think Patterson just wanted to cash in, because he has a new book out like every 6 months, and to be honest, the earlier ones are good, but the writing/plots are kind of elementary, but they were well done, just like literary junk food. The shyt with the FBI agent/The Mastermind just got so ridiculous, and everyone escaping and teaming up like some super hero shyt....Alex Cross was reduced to a caricature. And at some point, just let the man and his family live, it's not even believable for them to have been through so much murder and torment.

For the longest I didn't couldn't think of an exact way to describe those authors.....literary junk food, that's good.


The one that made me lose interest was the book about Vietnam war vets as hitmen. terrible, just terrible

Why are you red breh?

 

[re'up]

'Four Blind Mice' I read that too, I don't remember it well, but if you say it was garbage it probably was...they were old ass men as a hit team or something right?

Red because a disagreement about whether 'T.I/Wayne 'Ball' would be a hit single lol...

We need a book thread on here. There has to be a half dozen or some other posters that are regular readers.

I got to see it for free today . It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

 

[TMillzy]

Not even gonna watch this movie just because of Tyler Perry.

Alex cross = the black batman

 

[lamont614]

Exactly! Thank You!

Hollywood don't give a shyt about who you think would fit a damn role! They gonna put who they think will bring in that bread! Idris is a box office dud in comparison to Perry. This is about money!

In fifth place, Alex Cross opened to a disappointing $11.75 million from 2,539 locations. That's the worst opening ever for a movie starring Tyler Perry, and second-worst for a movie he's associated with behind Daddy's Little Girls ($11.2 million), which burned off some demand with a Wednesday opening. The debut is also lower than previous Alex Cross movies Kiss the Girls ($13.2 million) and Along Came a Spider ($16.7 million), even though those movies each were released over a decade ago

Bruh, shut the fukk up. You don't know shyt but what you like personally
Tyler Perry is BEYOND Will Smith in 2012/13
What the fukk has Will Smith done recently? TP is doing movies and TV and getting ALL THE MONEY
Oh wait, didn't mention broadway plays.. fukka broadway, he brings broadway across the country. Broadway was special in the 1960's
Tyler said I'll bring Broadway to your town, just give up the bread

So after all the movies he makes, stuff he does. Produces, directs, stars
You hate the guy, but that doesn't mean he's not doing all this shyt I just mentioned. Bad Boys was a loooooong time ago.
Jaden Smith >>> Will Smith currently

this nikka said he tyler perry was bigger than WILL fukkING SMITH

Idris needed this role imo. Would have been his coming out party as a lead actor in mainstream hollywood. Obviously he was born for the role and would've killed it, anyone who has ever seen him in "Luther" knows what i'm talking about.

Not to mention he'd have the female fan base on lock and obviously black folks in general would support it. He aint no polarzing figure like Perry in which for every female there's a dude who wouldn't watch any of his bullshyt. Idris is univerisally liked.

that ceo was talkin outta his ass with that "perry is a phenomenon" bullshyt. hollywood has a history of screwing over young/up and coming black actors (actual actors) in favor of rappers for "shock value" as opposed to substance, hence deliberately ruining any chance of building new black (mainstream) actors who could replace Denzel and Will Smith as new hollywood stars. Kickin out Idris for Perry isn't much different and the excuse that Perry is on some "Will Smith" level that you can't pass up is straight laughable.

"Men In Black III" = 650 Million Worldwide


Will Smith last movie has outgrossed Tyler Perry's entire catalog. You were saying? Yes Tyler is making Big money from TV and his movies but he is not a bigger actor than Will, Tyler Perry never even had a 100 Million Dollar Blockbuster in his entire career. Will is Tom Hanks and Cruise Level as far as blockbuster success. Look I'm happy Tyler is taking off that damn dress but I agree with people that Idris would of been better for this role. It's going to flop.

You outta ya fukking mind DON'T EVER COMPARE WILL SMITH TO TYLER PERRY WILL SMITH FIRST WEEK SELLS MORE THAN THE BEST GROSSING TYLER PERRY MOVIE RUN
LOOK AT I AM LEGEND OPENING SEDK GOD STATUS

AND OL BOY ALREADY TOLD U MIB3 650 million worldwide

DONT EVER TWIST YA MOUTH AND DISREPECT THE GOD WILL SMITH





WILL SMITH IS THE EPITOME OF BLACK EXCELLENCE

yea... i rest my case

 

[OmegaK2099]

yeah but we actually grew up liking will smith, we automatically hated tyler perry the moment he showed up in drag in countless horrible movies

 

[Spaceman Piff]

a question for the black folk who have read alex cross books..

how well does patterson do with writing alex cross as a black guy?

good? forced? corny? doesn't really matter?

might be a weird question but it's something that always made me curious as i read the books.

I think you're preaching to the choir. Not that i hate Tyler Perry tho, I just don't like his movies, his drag character nor anything (so far) that involves his presence on my television.

The latter could be subject to change, but I ain't exactly rooting for him like i am for idris, ealy, chiwetel, etc.

Doesn't matter to be honest . You can pretty much sub in a white cop for most of his adventures

 

[tr2k]

if you see a post from Cockmeat and take it to heart, you already lost

 

[tr2k]

anyways, this movie bomb hard with Paranomal Activity 4 being the only competition and its PA4 is a rated R movie and AC is just PG13
It did worse than Witness Protection

Madea's Witness Protection
Box office

The film opened with $25,390,575 in its opening weekend, ranking #4 behind Ted, Magic Mike, and Brave.[6] The film had grossed total of $65,653,242 domestically, surpassing its $20 million budget.

Buuut

It was announced that Double Cross would be adapted into a film with Perry reprising his role.

 

[satam55]

Wow. I assumed Idris read the script and went

The fact that the producer actually preffered Tyler over Idris is

And whoever said that Tyler couldn't be bothered to get into shape for his first action movie made me laugh out loud for real.

Him and 2 other nikkas did any audio review on movietrailerreviews.net


These nikkas shyt & clown this movie the entire time. They had me .
