I WON THIS AMAZING AVATAR! I'M A WINNER! WOOOOO!

Is the movie's only focus on NWA being a reflection of the community and giving the those in hard areas a voice to be heard, or are they also going to focus on NWA threatening to sodomize Ice Cube with a broomstick because he left?

Every film based on true events is white washed to a degree. So I wouldn't expect the sodomy threats to have made it through to the final cut.

Yeah, I'm kind of impressed by how much that guy they got looks/sounds like (young) Ice Cube. Well done (oh wait, apparently it's Ice Cube's son? makes sense I guess). :thumbsup: And considering Dre and Ice Cube are cool and doing the unnecessary intro at the beginning of the film, I have to unfortunately assume a lot of the inter-NWA beef and breakup/rivalry drama stuff will be whitewashed or toned down, which is a bummer, but oh well.

Yeah something tells me the song "No Vaseline" isn't making it into the movie but maybe Eazy's exit and AIDS and Snoop Dog/Dre rivalry stuff probably will.

NWA dominated my middle school in suburban Kansas making white toast Chiefs kids wear Raiders hats. Their reach and influence cannot be understated.

Everyone's pretty sure the reason he just killed that guy was because he was pissed about his portrayal in this movie, so I'm sure that's in.

If Suge Knight is in it, is Snoop? I feel like casting someone to look and act like Snoop would be difficult.

Another thing, if Suge followed somebody from the set of the film to a burger stand to run them over I gotta think you have to at least add an addendum to the end about it.

To tell you the truth Suge Knight deserves his own movie. Of all these dudes he's the homicidal maniac of the group.

The first thing to come up after I did a quick google search to see what Suge was up to led me to find out he killed someone recently by running them over in his car. I laughed.

There's an important detail about this incident:
"Early this morning, LA Sheriff’s deputies arrested Suge Knight on suspicion of murder for the fatal hit and run that occurred near the set of the commercial being shot for the upcoming F. Gary Gray-directed N.W.A biopic Straight Outta Compton."

Something about the trailer that confuses me: it seems to imply that NWA and the LA riots happened right around the same time and worked very much in tandem with one another, but NWA was basically already broken up before the Rodney King beating had even happened. Maybe it's just the way the trailer is edited, but that's some major revisionism if they try to play it off as happening at the same time.

Second trailer for Pitch Perfect 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bh4mvJ5jUg

I enjoyed the 1st one since I dig 90s pop a lot but this looks very unchill. The gags are just mean and entry level (Rebel is still fat!). "World War 2!" as your comeback slam against the German team? Yawn.

May 21, 2006

I noticed that too but I think it's just the way the trailer way cut. They're probably show the riots as more of result of a frustration in the community that NWA represented kind of thing.

Quinn from Homeland is playing 47? Yeah, I'm in. Though I can't tell if he's the villain in this. Framing the movie from the side of the target with 47 being the force trying to kill him/her would be pretty awesome.

What an awful casting choice, it seems that no one can cast Agent 47 well.

Just loving cast the man himself, David Bateson.

Hitman is also doing a very poorly executed (pun intended) and kind of hosed up viral series for Agent 47. Here's the supercut of "trailer" "reactions."

I think I only got a quick glimpse of him in the trailer, but Barkhad Abdi (lead pirate from Captain Phillips) is in this too. So is Tilda Swinton.
