I'm gonna try to watch it next week. I feel like I've made enough fun of Amaranthine for her to ban me if I dont...especially seeing as she's already threatened to ban me.

You better go, and give us a full report. Gotta have at least one person who's seen it.

That bitch Amar-Dance ain't nothing to fucks with. I hear SajN makes HER sandwiches.

Anyway, there aren't any AMC theatres near me either. I'll have to wait for DVD...or torrent.

Isn't this being released on DVD? I'm kinda cofused...

After it's released in theaters. There are also plans for a TV show with the extra footage.

Any idea of a more specific time-scale? When should we be expecting it on DVD?

Unfortunately, I don't know everything. I can tell you that most movies are released on DVD 2-6 months after they're released in theaters, but there's no date for DVD release yet.

Is anyone of you gonna see it today?
Make sure you record the Em scene.

Rex does. He claims he can't go until sometime next week though.

Ooh, there's one here that wasn't on AMC's site that's kinda close to me. Still an hour away though.

[Nick419]

it's playing 2 miles away from me. Might go. Dunno if i can afford to spend 10 bucks tho cuz i have to drive from michigan to ohio Sunday

Just got back from seeing it. good ass movie. Recommended to hip-hop nerds only tho. If you're just a casual hip-hop listener or a stan you will find it boring. Like i said All hip-hops heads will def. enjoy. Eminems part of the film was def. a highlight and the 2nd half of the freestyle is def. doper than the first half that was leaked. Shit was hilarious too he said some line like "shits about to get as hairy as chewbacca's balls" that had me dieing from laughter lmao. Joe Budden had a dope ass verse in the movie..it was some deep shit n actually had a plot to it unlike most of the other rappers verses (he was talking about trying to convince his girl to have an abortion and just a fucked up life situation). Kanye's rap was a highlight as well with great passionate delivery (some of his lines sounded oddly familiar to me tho) and of course Rakim killed it

Thanks for the review! Were there any cool parts in the interviews?

[Amaranthine]

How long was the film would you say? (unless this info is online? Typical 2 hour movie?)

151 minutes.

[Nick419]

That's kind of where the film lacked since they asked every rapper the same question. The interviews that were good were the ones with personal stories like Rev Run talking about being successful and being in the bath tub with french toast and having weed, women, and rolling stone all coming to his presidential sweet at once. KRS-One's story about how he got into rap was kind of funny. I guess he was watching a cypher and he was just part of the crowd and whoever was rapping just started making fun of his clothes so he felt like he had to jump in and he didnt even know how to rap at the time. aaaa Dr. Dre talking about how 2 pac recorded was interesting. i guess pac would just sit in the recording booth... write a verse, lay it down, then say next beat. and literally never left the booth and would continue that process the whole session
