shyt looking like a DeAndre Jordan half-court shot at the buzzerI guess they had to hurry up and throw something together so they don't lose the movie rights
Somebody stop this
I have almost no faith this will be anything but a 'Notorious''Straight Outta Compton' styled movie, with Hollywood gloss and a few scenes of violence to offset it's genial, feel good type of a narrative.....I hope it's not. An ideal Pac movie for me would be as dark and unforgiving as 'Juice', nihistic and almost with out hope, just the glimmer of how important Pac was to the culture, and how tragic his life and death was. A pure tragedy piece, almost operatic, but not stylized. You need someone like Michael Mann, who is now too old, but could have done this around 'Collateral', to show the Vegas and LA nightlife, dread and beauty in ever shot.... Show just out of control and reckless his last days were, how close to the edge he was....
but as far as directors, given 'Straight Outta Comptons' issues, I wouldn't think Singleton could do much better, in 'Belly' Hype's direction was amazing, hindered by a bad script and bad acting....but a music director, with the right vision could dope, esp. someone who came up doing hip hop videos....

We'll see how this goes
Watch this shyt get whitewashed and they turn pac into some MLK type figure with some white savior in the end.
But no I hope it does not go that way
Channing Tatum was originally cast to play Pac before Demetriussurprised they didnt try and get a white guy to play tupac.

shyt looking chessier than dat aaliyah or mc hammer shyt
but real talk... no hate... it cant be worst than notorious
We cant forget my disclaimer saying Biggie would only need a lot of screen time due to lazy/bad writing
Little did I know,now we see Keyshia Cole will be playing the part of Queen,which she better be talking about Queen Latifah,any ol body getting screen time
.Did Universal already buy the rights to all the other important characters in the Pac universe
...Lemme find out Universal and Fox bought the rights to Afeni,Suge,the two cops Pac shot,Mutulu,Humpty Hump...Only Shock G can be used in this film
And seein as though Kat fukking Graham is the second most accomplished actor in this movie,I'm guessing Jada will end up playing a significant role...maybe Hill Harper playing Will Smith
THis shyt bout to make Notorious look like a masterpiece/

@adonnis - pull up, there's refreshments
That's Biggie?
You know they rushed this into production because of that clause in their contract where they'd lose the rights to it if they didn't do it by the end of the year . . very shameful

TBH, I think a Tupac biopic could of really been done justice on a Hollywood level by like honestly less than 10 directors. Mainly because Tupac is probably the most known and prolific rapper to ever do it dead or alive for many generations of music fans and people in general. If done well, it could honestly be a film that could win oscars and golden globes and I think that would be more of a testament to the legacy of Tupac than anything.
It seems like with the success of straight outta compton they're just rushing to put this out to capitalize on the wave of success that film created.
IMO Benny Boom is not as good as Hype. Then again as a director Hype Williams is really a 1 out of 1 once in a lifetime director. Which is why I felt disappointed after Belly he didn't continue doing movies.
