  1. I look at it this way...one time i didn't like something and said it was gay. My friend who is gay got really offended and said that "your are associating what i am with something bad." Yes, i think he waz being over sensetive since i've known him for about 5 to 6 years...but i know where he waz coming from. The same thing kinda goes for the word "retarded." I think it's more than just politically correct 2 say something like handicapped or disabled. I have no room 2 really talk tho' cuz me and my one friend used 2 only refer 2 each other by that word.
  2. I loved the movie. It waz definitly something different and very creative. No other movie like this one...4 sure. I think the beginning waz a lil' slow at times but not in a way that's not 4giveable. Once it picks up, it doesnt' stop. All of the people i saw it with enjoyed it and the theaters were packed. Anothing thing tho'....Will dose have alot of one-liners and there isn't alot of room 4 him 2 have much of a character. However, i may feel this way only cuz i've been such a big fan 4 such a long time that i can't help but just see Will playing a part rather than a totally different character. MIIB had the same problem...no real character developent. I'm also not sure how 2 take the end. Me and my friends agreed that it waz just a closing scene 2 leave things open 4 a sequel...but we talked 4ever trying 2 see if we could come up with some kinda meaning behind it. I'm definitly gonna see this movie again. I've already talked 2 some people who are interested in seeing it soon.
  3. I haven't gotten 2 watch my copy yet...so thanx 4 posting this.
  4. Yeah, i waz happy he gave us the title of the 1st single. Kinda impossibe 2 guess what the songs i about tho.' Let's not judge a song by it's title yet...remember "Nod Ya Head" sounded like a good song...but it ended up being a soundtrack song.
  5. Another thing i just remembered. They mentioned Jada's music and they asked Will if he stepped in 2 help Wicked Wisdom and he said he's good about letter her do what she wants cuz she is very picky about what she wants.
  6. I had 2 tape this so i havn't seen it all yet...but i did catch the 1st part of it. Free waz opening the show, announcing who waz on the show...when she said "Will Smith" he just came out (he waz supposed 2 wait til later in the show but he purposely just came out). The crowd went wild and u could tell it waz genuine and not someone hyping the audience. My girlfriend caught the beginning as well and cracked up cuz she said Will waz dressed alot like i waz....fitted jeans, a white shirt, and a red hat. My jeans were baggier tho.' Anyways, the main thing i caught right b4 i left waz how he planned 2 drop his new single in about 6 weeks. He said he waz taking his time so that he could drop "the heat" just right. The 1st single is called "Switch."
  7. They also mentioned how in shape he waz. He flexed for Kelly, who grabbed on his arm and appeared 2 be hanging. Regis felt his arm and Will said "feel that...that's harder than your head." :roll:
  8. I like them making another version. Using that word can be takin' kinda offensively so i think the lyric change waz very appropriate. Dope song either way. And i don't know if it's just me, but there's a extra few sounds in the production here and there. Dope song either way and the video is insane!!
  9. Yeah, KFC changed their name cuz they are selling test tube chicken as food. Sorry but that's just nasty.
  10. On 106 + Park 2day (at 6 for the east coast), Will is gonna be on 106 + Park. Check him out!!
  11. This morning Will waz on Regis + Kelly. He came out in a tan dress shirt, fitted jeans, and black shoes. It looks like he didn't get his hair cut in a day or 2, cuz tho' it waz short, it looked a lil' stubblely. He talked about how some of the scenes in the move 90% CGI and that i waz just him and the car in a shot where a whole late waz going on. He talked about the plot of the movie and how Jaden dosen't want him 2 save the world anymore. They asked what waz coming up and he said he waz getting back in 2 music. Kelly then commented some times her favorite part of Will Smith projects are the albums that come out with the movie. Will said that he's found his way in and that the music industry is like playing double dutch. U gotta jump in at the right time and do your thing or u'll get smacked in the head with the jump rope.. :roll:
  12. Ha ha....HECK 2 the YES!!!! "Let's Get Retarded" from Black Eyed Peas is my favorite song on their current. And as funny as it sounds, there's some personal stuff i have tied 2 that song from last summer. I heard that re-recorded version "Let's Get It Started" on the radio and saw the single on the internet, but didn't expect a video. I just saw (on VH-1 i think). It's crazy...everything u would expect from the Black Eyed Peas. Some of the special efx from "Jointz-N-Jams" (their 1st single from 1998) are re-used in it. It's just crazy hype and really funny. Watch 4 the video whether u like BEP or not!!
  13. Both were great years. When Homebase came out, it waz my JJ+FP album that came out when i waz a HUGE fan of their's.
  14. 4 JJ: What is in store for A Touch of Jazz? Jill Scott? Soundtrack To The City? 4 FP: What's the thing he misses most about only working on music and not TV and movies along with music.
  15. [quote=DevilsJim89,Jul 16 2004, 04:40 AM]NWA and Public Enemy? Wasnt that Gangsta rap? I thought you didnt like that kinda rap...or maybe that was FP. lolol. I gotta get some Heavy D CDs...I love what I have from him on my computer.[/quote] FP has admitted 2 liking music much harder than his own...but we all know his opinion about "Gangsta Rap." Public Enemy is one of his favorite groups. At least back in the '80's, he credits them 4 alot (check the SPIN article on them). I can't remember if he ever has talked about N.W.A. but i'm pretty sure that i've heard him give Dr. Dre and Ice Cube props in the past. Will is actually cool with Ice-T also. Somewhere in my video collection, i have a tape which has an episode of The Arsenio Hall Show where DJ Jazzy Jeff is sitting in with the band and Ice-T waz on the show talking about him and Will being cool and the differences in their music. Oh yeah, and i'll give u list of Heavy D trax 2 check 4 in a day or 2.
  16. Please tell me u are kidding. Public Enemy..."gangsta"??? PE is the most anti-gangsta group ever. U gotta hear their 1994 single "Give It Up"...it's one of my favorite trax by them. Also, let me say this. There is hardcore Hip-Hop and there is "gangsta rap." Hardcore Hip-Hop is Hip-Hop music branching from the grittier, darkside of Hip-Hop...heavily street oriented. The emcees who created Hardcore Hip-Hop either experienced this stuff or came up in an enviorment where they came up around that lifestyle. "Gangsta Rap" is all the phoney artists that came out after Dr. Dre's "The Chronic" album blew up. These guys just talk guns, drugs, sex, and money cuz other people already did it and they know it's a sure fire way 2 make money. They aren't creative and in most cases, they never set foot in the darker sides of the streets. When Ja-Rule and 50 Cent try 2 be serious about this kinda stuff....intellegent Hip-Hop heads laff at them cuz they are so phoney and uncreative. When u listen 2 an Ice Cube track or Ice-T track...u know it's coming from a legit artist who knows what he's talking about. N.W.A. set the standard for what "gangsta rap" could have been but just isn't. If u listen 2 alot of N.W.A's stuff, it's more than what people give it credit 4. Of all the people i listed, N.W.A. is probably at the bottom of that list, but they made some real relavant stuff. Check it if u get the chance.
  17. On VH-1's I Love The 90's: 1996, they have a feature on Independence Day. They talk about how huge the movie was. DMC comments on how the humans were losing 4 a long tyme which made him think that if this happened in real life...we'd be in trouble. :roll: Alfonso Riebero commentson it as well, but nearly everyone praises Will. Jaleel White, Hulk Hogan and a few others gave him mad props. Hulk Hogan said that if they Will Smith is leading anything, he'll follow him. Sir-Mix-Alot however waz stuck on Vivica Fox's strip scene....at one point it said he'd pay 2 smell her fart. :roll: It is featured about 20 minutes in2 the show.
  18. I don't wanna sum it up in song titles...cuz i like pretty much every song by my favorite old skool artists. Here's a list... JJ+FP L.L. Cool J Run-DMC M.C. Hammer Queen Latifah Heavy D + The Boyz Salt-N-Pepa Eric B. + Rakim Sugarhill Gang Digital Underground Whodini Kool Moe Dee Kurtis Blow EPMD MC Lyte N.W.A. Yo Yo Grandmaster Flash + The Furious Five Doug E. Fresh + The Get Fresh Crew Biz Markie Young MC Slick Rick Oaktown 3.5.7. Public Enemy And the list goes on like that
  19. [quote=the real big willie,Jul 16 2004, 01:53 AM][quote=JumpinJack AJ,Jul 15 2004, 08:09 PM] Will's character seems 2 be so bitter and angry about the whole robot situation that he may come off as a slightly un-likable character.[/quote] That is what I am looking forward too. I'd like to see Will playing a bad guy for a change. To be honest, I'm getting a little bored with his hero stuff. Lets see him do something different for a change. [/quote] Well, he's obviously a hero...but his character seems 2 have a real sarcastic bitter kinda personality. I don't care if he has attitude, i just don't want him 2 be unlikable. Jack Nicholas as the Joker in Batman waz a bad guy...but he waz waz really likable...probably the best thing in the movie. I just don't Will 2 be unlikable. Seems impossible, huh. :dunno:
  20. [quote=the real big willie,Jul 16 2004, 01:53 AM]This reviewer is a penis head.[/quote] :bowrofl: That was deep. :bowrofl:
  21. Yeah, with this stuff, u gotta take the good with the bad. The recognition is always nice tho'.
  22. Lhunagar, thanx so much...u have no idea how thankful i am. Da Brakes, if u can make a version with better sound quality, i'll have no problem waiting. Thanx in advance!! U guys have helped me make my personal mix-CDs 100 times better.
  23. If Will never recovered from And In This Corner... he might have looked like that 2day.
