The dude died :( RIP.

Aahh Visqo man, can't get my hopes up like that. I thought this was official when I read the title and jumped on it lol. I really don't believe this, not even 0,1%. Will don't post on the internet, not like that anyway. I wish though, I wish this was true. Him and Jeff need to make another album. And Will has the power and money to collab with whoever he wants. I'd love for him to have Mos, Common etc. on it.

Supporting Chris ? Ok Will, whatever.

What a clown. If you don't want to experience his ''lousy'' films then stop watching them. He didn't watch FPOBA (wow) and he hates Will Smith doing serious movies ? And also hates when he picks any other (sci-fi,action,comedy etc.) role ? Either he's highly unintelligent or he's just looking for some attention.

The song sucks, Ems hook on this is repetitive and his voice is annoying (I hate when he sings in that weird witty voice, IMO he's at his greatest when he gets rough and controls his voice in a natural unforced way like Toy Soldiers, COMC, When I'm gone or rough like Till I collapse ) and 50 is just...well beyond horrible that I won't even bother. The only great thing about this song is DRE. Shame he took that break and went producing, I seriously can't wait for his new album Detox. 2009 is gonna be great, Outkast, MOS, Dre...and many more.

Yeah according to Chris his stepfather beat his mother. Which to me is all the more reason to never raise your hand to a woman yourself. Yeah Big Will is right, that doesn't make sense to me. Shouldn't it be the other way around ? My father beat my mother too but I'd rather kill myself than beat a woman or a kid, that's seriously pathetic what Chris did, the worst thing he could do IMO.

150 M WW is great for everybody not named Will Smith. For you, me, Denzel and any other person this is a success. For Will Smith, the most powerful actor in Hollywood...it isn't...simple as that.

Even though the song was crap Will was nothing short of amazing with his beatboxing there. It's so frustrating, it's like you don't give a drug addict heroine for years and all of a sudden you give him a lil' bit. Such a tease. I don't even want an album, just a single will do. Will & Fresh teaming up. He has all the time in the world right now.

Wow, time flies by. Tim, happy birthday and hope you'll have a great one.

Trash ain't selling anymore so Sony tries a different way to milk the cow, they don't give a F about real music, as long as they make money.

I feel pretty bad for the DP. He can't say anything back cause if he does he'll either get blacklisted from Hollywood or fired. He just HAS to take it.

That's why he's one of the greatest entertainers ever. Shame that he doesn't have many performances. He's got lots of great songs that I wish he would've performed.

Question, I might be wrong but I seem to remember (years ago) from watching the final FP episode backstage, where Will rapped Summertime. From the bloopers I've seen so far it only shows like the intro (couple seconds) and it ends there. Will says something like see ya in 2 minutes. Am I seeing things ? Or did he really sing a full song for the crowd ? That's what pisses me off too. Such a great show and they force you to buy the 4 seasons and then leave out the final 2 ones. This is one of the greatest tv-shows ever, it deserves the respect. It made them sooo much money now they want to cut it because it's expensive ? I don't buy that, they release the crappiest stuff surely they can release the FP. Maybe that final scene where he performs Summertime is on the season 6 DVD.

Thnx a lot Big Willie, gonna try it out tomorrow after work. Though what are the algorhytms exactly ? I know there are codes/algorhytms to solve each layer but what are they ?

Hi there, welcome to the boards. That's one of the best posts I've ever read regarding this subject. And your English is excellent too.

a great cast would probably outshine him tho Yes, just like he was outshined in Hancock by Theron, or in Ali, Enemy of the state, MIB or Six degrees. Will is one of the best actors of his generation. The reason he's being downplayed a lot and underrated by many as an actor is (just like Tim mentioned) cause he surrounds himself with mediocre people which produce mediocre movies. How many actors are there that have the ability to play in almost ANY genre and deliver like he does ? The only ones that come to my mind are Johnny Depp...and even he doesn't have the same versatility as Will. His biggest problem as mentioned before is his lack of picking the right script or picking the right people to work on his projects.

:yeahthat:

yeah.. just check his album sales of his last two albums and his the number of people who watched his movies. i dont get why he makes movies ether. What relevance has your post to do with the quote you selected ? Are you trying to compare oranges and apples ? Explain.

When you don't have a sense on reality no explanation will be a valid one IMO, especially one coming from Will Smith.

Ahhh the good ol'times, I miss it so much.

The day Will stops making movies mainly for the 20M or for the oscar run is the day Will will reach his peak. I felt like I was watching a movie that was a vehicle for Smith to run for the Oscars and to make the viewer as sentimental and teary as possible and it made no sense to me (All of my friends knew the ending after like 10 mins, the jellyfish thing was absurd). I mean when you're a scriptwriter for so long and all you've done is write for Sabrina and some other silly sitcom how smart would it be for Will to work with this guy ? I had my prejudices about this situation and I was kinda hoping for a miracle that the scriptwriter would've come up with something good. I don't blame Muccino a lot even though I don't like him that much, this movie comes down to the script, as simple as that. It's beyond horrible that it just doesn't work on that level. This is one flop that could've been prevented by Will himself. He is one of Hollywoods WORST actors when it comes to script selection. He is so huge and powerful as an actor in Hollywood that he can work with whoever he wants. I'm gonna wait and see what his next move is going to be, he has a couple years to bounce back and to live up to his own potential and peak. If this is Wills peak, I'm not too optimistic about the next 10 years. Sorry for the harsh words, I'm just a bit furious at Will.

Happy and healthy 2009 to all. May your career as well as your personal life bring you great happiness and joy.

Music or movies I love Will, no matter what. It would be hard for me to pick a side since he is so talented at both. So if he quits music I can live with that. If he quits acting I can live with that too. But not if he quits at both. Obviously music is what most of us connected to Will 20 years ago. Not only is it Wills true love (rapper actor not the other way around, no matter what Will says) deep down it's also what the majority of the fans prefer about him. If I really REALLY had to pick a side it would be music no doubt. At least the quality of his music isn't dependant on others. His acting career is limited because of the (lack of) talent working WITH him. Seven Pounds along with his recent and most movies aren't on the same quality as Wills acting talent because it's about teamwork, having a great actor isn't enough, you need good writers, directors etc. to lift your career to its potential. So far it's a failure no doubt. What pisses me off is the fact that he still isn't aware of this. Another thing that bugs me a lot lately is that I'm not feeling Will as much as I would like to. I feel like disconnected to him. I used to care a lot about his work...lately when a movie comes out I don't have the same old excitement anymore. I watch it because I feel obligated to support him and I wish the very best for him but I'm not having a great time while watching one of his movies, especially lately. I Robot, Bad Boys 2 didn't do well critically but at least I enjoyed those movies a lot, the entertainment factor was there. When he talks serious it really turns me off...sometimes he makes sense but often it feels awkward. I keep asking myself is this the same Prince from a couple of years ago ? Not serious in the ''keeping it real'' style, but weird serious a la Tom. It's like his Hollywood pals are having a different influence on him. I used to love it when he was surrounded with his Philly friends, especially Jeff. More Jeff less Tom please. Sure the media are hyping things up and are waiting to attack Will and bring him down. But it bugs me a lot when Will isn't aware of that and makes ignorant comments about Scientology and compare it with the Bible and say it's 99% the same. He made a lot of ignorant comments like that in the past couple years. He can say what he wants I really don't care about his personal beliefs, but I'd hate it if those comments would end up killing his career. He keeps saying he's in his prime now, as an actor. If he keeps making mediocre movies like Hancock, SP etc. he might as well give up on his acting career and focus on his music career. That's what really bugs me. I really wish the best for him and I hope he keeps making movies worthy of his talent. If that happens I can live with him quitting on his music career. But if that doesn't happen it'll really piss me off.

Mr. Reality also can't wait till he's 16 to get a car, he wants one NOW. So Will...obviously he knows what he's talking about, so listen to him, right ?

Nice @ss, Jada is so lucky.
