Guest HBK16 Report post Posted November 8, 2002 I have actually been looking foreward to this movie for a while. I was going to see the sneak preview of it on Wednesday but missed it. But it looks like a good movie and I am gonna see it Monday night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest chirs3 Report post Posted November 8, 2002 From the previews, it doesn't look half bad... ... but it would mark the first time I violated my "No movies starring rappers" rule... I'll think it over - it seems to be getting good enough reviews, so if there's nothing else this weekend, I'll probably check it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted November 8, 2002 ***. Good Movie. Worth your time and 4 bucks. Mikhi steals the movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted November 8, 2002 I'll wait till it's a rental. Mikhi steals the movie. I never thought he was much of an actor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 8, 2002 I'll pass. On a side note about sneak previews... my friend's theater got the new Star Trek movie in yesterday for a screening...but there was a memo from Paramount declaring that only theater owners were allowed for the screening... Which pissed me off because I'd have watched for free...but they wouldn't let him in either. So he refused to make it up and the owner had to come in early and do it. The memo did this and asked that no one give away the big surprise in the movie. Now I'm real pissed because I love spoiling movies for people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Karnage Report post Posted November 8, 2002 To me, this movie looks like Dangerous Minds 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Incandenza Report post Posted November 8, 2002 Curtis Hanson, the film's director, has done some solid work lately (L.A. Confidential and Wonder Boys). Some people aren't going to give it a shot due to their blind hatred of Eminem, but I'll be checking it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted November 8, 2002 It actually looks like a decent movie. However, I don't like eminem and I could care less about his trailer trash past so i'm not going to bother with seeing it. It's funny how when he had a movie preparing to come out he suddenly became misunderstood trailer trash instead of angry violent close minded trailer trash. He's nothing but a big fraud.

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted November 8, 2002 Well if i don't like someone nor care about their life story it wouldn't really make sense for me to go see a movie about their life story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cartman Report post Posted November 8, 2002 Trailer Trash, Angry, Aggresive, Cruel...call him what you will but you hafta admit the guy has talent in both Acting AND music. His whole "act" as the Angry White Boy from the Hood has made him millions, yet his talent has made him much much more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lord of The Curry Report post Posted November 8, 2002 I'll be seeing it. The hype surrounding Em's performance is way too big for me to ignore, my intrest has been tweaked, plus having Curtis Hanson on board can't hurt. I'm also looking foward to Mikhi Phipher (sp?) stealing the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest converge241 Report post Posted November 8, 2002 all i can think of is Cool As Ice that being said the movie will make a ton- im saying 33 million opening holiday weekend (4 days) I like his music, and most of his lyrics..but im just not feeling him playing himself in a biopic (i know people are saying its not but COME ON!) At least they didnt take a long time making it and getting it out there so they could reap the benefits of him being firmly still in the pop culture spotlight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Report post Posted November 9, 2002 Fuck Star Trek. Fuck Paramount. Get off your Ass, snatch $10 out of your Pocket, and go see 8 Mile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 9, 2002 Fuck 8 mile. I'm having a hard time getting up the initiative to go see a movie about the struggles of a white boy who desperatly wants to be accepted into black culture. I like his music. I don't have to like his story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Report post Posted November 9, 2002 Excellent Movie. 1.Curtis Hanson did an excellent job. 2.For his film debut, Eminem did a fairly well job. 8 Mile = Oscar Worthy Film ? For those who haven't seen it, don't shit on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 9, 2002 Don't shit on the star trek movie then. DAMN IT. I don't even give a shit about Star Trek... but them not wanting me to see it makes me need to!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Flyboy Report post Posted November 9, 2002 bps, Since you DO have cable internet, why don't you just wait until 8-Mile is out and just download it? After you watch it, delete it. You would have saved you $7.50 (well, in my case). Just a suggestion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Flyboy Report post Posted November 9, 2002 I prefer Kazaa, but lately it's been acting like shit lately. (freezing up in the middle of downloads and such) Also, WinMX is available, but I still use Kazaa no matter how shitty it is. I'm downloading Part 1 and 2 now, but I doubt it's legit. It usually takes 2-3 days for movies are able to download. I'll let you know if they're real or not when they finish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 9, 2002 Whenever I download a movie off of Kazaa all I can get is sound from it, and my media player won't give me picture Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 9, 2002 I should add that it does give me picture for all of the porn....er...wrestling matches that I download. Just not the movies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Flyboy Report post Posted November 9, 2002 What media player are you using? Don't say WMP either because it that's it, that is more likely the problem. EDIT: Being able to watch porn while being underage rules! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 9, 2002 Ok... I won't say that I am using WMP ... ... ... *whistles* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Flyboy Report post Posted November 9, 2002 I hate WMP.. with a passion. So I suggest download my favorite media player... UltraPlayer~! http://www.ultraplayer.com Then, head over to http://www.divx.com to donwload the latest codec's. With your WMP problem, it sounds like old codec's. Do those two things, and you're on your way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
