Quite funny if we never hear from one of them again and the other just churns out really shit films

This is weird and allegedly real although I just reckon it’s an elaborate promo for music. Anyway weirdest part about it is that Glover is 9 years older than 21 Savage.

Some decent money behind it. Not convinced there’s mileage for a trilogy but that is just where we are I guess.

I think there are some rights issues around the first one (it’s never on streaming and according to Just Watch isn’t even available to buy digitally), so if it helps clean those up that’ll be good.

I rewatched 28WL a few years ago, it doesn’t have the magic of the first one but there’s a pervasive lack of hope through the whole film that just made it land pretty well for me.

I watched days on dvd recently and the picture quality made it more or less unwatchable.
Hopefully they tidy it up and rerelease it

This looks honking

Could be an all time disaster this

Excited to see someone portraying Mark Ronson, and hopefully this is in it

Hopefully this will do to biopics what Hello Dolly did to movie musicals in the 1960s.

Yeah but it will be cancelled out by the Michael Jackson one coming out (whenever that is) and doing Bohemian Rhapsody-numbers

Planning to see The Iron Claw and The Zone Of Interest on the same day… I know how to treat a girl for Valentines.

Kind of terrifying (to me anyway) that it won’t be that far off literally being 28 years later if/when it comes out

I try not to pre-judge but I am 99% sure I’m going to hate whatever film this is going to be.
At least Regina Hall is there though. Find Di Caprio and Penn completely unbearable to watch. Just so try-y. And both of them together? No thank you.

PTA should have a little re-think imo. Poor Regina Hall.
