North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Alright... I wasn’t able to finish the og movie... it was late & I was tired & it was way more fukking than I expected...


but My Name is Dolemite was very accurate. Literally got every detail of what they did was dead on. I really need to find the Unsung of Rudy Ray Moore.

Actually, it wasnt accurate. The movie scenes they shot, were scenes from multiple movies.

Were those the others that was mentioned at end? Cause I literally only saw the first few scenes of the actual Dolemite movie cause it was like 2 AM & it was way more fukkin than I expected.

fukking loved the movie. High key inspirational too. A lot of parallels to Tyler Perry's story come to think of it.
It's crazy when I was a kid and my mom brought home them bootleg vhs plays he released and me hearing about how he use to be homeless, walking the streets of Atlanta...to where he is now.

All while making major bank through critically bad films that served a crucially underserved market. Tyler was able to create the empire Rudy pretended to have in that meeting.

Movie was excellent

During the course of it, I was all in. I was totally convinced and engaged. Even though Eddie basically just did Eddie, I bought that guy as being in that situation and making his different moves.

I could have hung out with the crew for longer. I wanted more.

I want to give it 5/5

I wonder if I need to let it breathe first




I'm going with the 5. This and the NWA joint are the best Biopics I've seen. Usually its more like a report you'd do in school. Something clunky about trying to recreate a legend. But this shyt - and SOC - just rode along smooth and never felt like they were doing an impression

I might have to link up with my pops and them this weekend and watch this again amongst savages.
the Uncanny use of my favorite word "muthafukka" damn near brought tears to a KingPins eyes.
