My picks:
If we’re trying to update it and go hip hop, Kendrick would be a Home run. Krit would be dope too.
If we’re keeping it soulful/funky I’d go Michael Kiwanuka. Trombone Shorty or Miles Mosley would be dope too.

The new movie is set in Atlanta in the trap. They listen to Future in the trap in Atlanta.
Who the fukk else would do the soundtrack.
Y’all nikkas hating.
They not doing a remake shot for shot. They doing a light remake that will have the same general premise in today’s setting.
It’s a dope concept if done correctly.

Think there should be a moratorium on flicks of this nature. Everything from the voiceover to the imagery just looks so tired. AAs still proud to be depicted like this in 2018?
i rate these joints as bad as slave movies.When are we going to see a black version of trance, adaptation, limitless or eternal sunshine of the spotless mind?

Hell No!!! Please god don't let this be true
-Just saw that trailer.. they can't be serious with this
The idea of a blaxploitation flick in 2018 is weird to me and for a big Hollywood production this shyt looks very cheap. Didn’t care when they announced it and don’t care now so don’t tag me again for anything regarding this shyt

I have several biases and things that irk me about movies and TV (black, white or other) and this ticked like 17 of those boxes in less than 30 seconds.

I feel like @satam55 tags the two of us just to fukk with us. there's no way he genuinely thinks we're into the shyt he tags us in. He can't be that silly

Yeah. Either
A. He trusts our opinion and actually wonders what we think about stuff
or
B. He thinks we're c00ns or something and is just trying to get a reaction he probably knows he'll get
He called me out in a JBO thread for being aware of a shytty AnnaLynne McCord comedy on a network called Pop but not being a fan of "streets keep callin' my name" type movies/shows so I have a suspicion it's more B than A.
@satam55 what up?

I don't know, man.
Sometimes I wish I was more active in terms of post-to-lurk ratio so I could just get my feelings out on certain topics and subjects but then I remember that I just don't care lol
I don't know what's so hard to understand about it.
Just based off that Superfly trailer
1. I've seen strippers before
2. I've seen pimps before (and done better)
3. I've seen nikkas get shot at
4. I've seen nikkas who are jealous of other nikkas so they wanna get that other nikka out the paint
5. I've heard a Future song before
6. Snoop Dogg's hair in the The Next Episode video is the best laid hair I've ever seen on a nikka, you can't top it
7. Director X is an adult with both a first and a last name - I suggest he use it from here on out lest he find himself relegated back to music videos
8. I despise protagonist VO, it's rarely works
9. Don't stand on a fukking rooftop and survey your city - I know what you think it means, but it doesn't mean anything
I literally don't need to see this movie. I don't like seeing things I've seen before.
I mean, no bullshyt, the Migos & Drake video is an infinitely more interesting and creative piece of art than this movie will be, but you know what sucks?
Eventually when the nikka who directed that video gets to make a movie, it's gonna look more like Superfly 2.0 than the Migos video.
Rant over
that movie did well because it was a comic book movie more than anything. Marvel made half a billion off of Ant-Man Now if it was John Singleton's vision of that movie on-screen, that'd be a different storyBlack panther
this supposed to be the new age, ATL version of "Belly"?
