Yeah man I'm a stickler for details in biopics.. Little stuff like Dre wearing 1993 Karl Kani gear in 1989 was stuff that I noticed but the majority of the viewers wont notice..

And how Pac was actually still in prison for that rape charge when Eazy died, not signed to Death Row...You gotta be of a certain age to sport certain flaws...

But the movie was excellent....Never let perfect become the enemy of good..

Dope movie.
I feel like some scenes were clearly pushing that R-Rating pretty hard :laugh:
I do agree that there were clearly certain things omitted or weren't touched on
and in some ways it did exalt Dr. Dre who I do think is great.

I mean they touched on what Dre did before ruthless/priority, death row and post death
row but there wasn't too much information on Eazy-E after Dre's departure to death row.
Would've been dope to see the Bone Thugs in action, I also would've liked to see more information
Cube's association with the Nation of Islam or Dre's woman beating issue's.

One thi9ng I liked above all is that yes they were portrayed as these larger than life
personalities but there was still some humanity there.
For example Eazy-E facing his mortality = DOPE scene.

Can we get some more facts though on what was :duck: ?
Touching on that without spoiling the film would be a good day to put it in perspective.

I Didnt like how they made it seem like Eazy was straight :flabbynsick: when Dre left. Would have been dope to see Bone and the Dre vs Eazy disses. Dude who played Snoop looked like KCi from Jodeci :pachaha:.


My thoughts exactly.

They made it look as if once Death Row blew up, Eazy was going broke at the same time, which wasn't the case at all.

Eazy was getting royalties off of Dre, had Bone blowing up, and was still selling a decent amount of records himself. Yeah, Dre and Cube were waaaaay bigger than him at the time, but he was still doing alright.

I was hoping they'd cover Dre Day in the movie, but I guess they thought it would be redundant to show that part since they covered the diss tracks with No Vaseline.
