Now this is a story
all about how my life
got twisted upside down
and id like to take a minute
just sit right there
ill tell you how i became the prince
of a town called Bel-Air
In west Philadelphia
born and raised
on the playground my momma said
most of my days
chilling out, maxing
and relaxing all cool
and all shooting some b-ball
outside of school
when a couple of guys
they were up to no good
started making trouble in our neighborhood
i got in one little fight and my mom got scared
she said your moving
in with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air
i whisted for a cab and when it came near
the license plate said fresh
and had dice in the mirror
if anything i could say that this cab was rare
but i thought nah, forget it
yo home to bel-air!
i-pulled- up tp a house about seven or eight
i yelled to the cabbie yo home, smell you later
looked at my kingdom i was finally there
to sit on my throne as the prince of bel-air

The Will Smith ad at the bottom of my screen makes this thread full of win.

Who do white people like more? Will Smith or Barack Obama?

There will be an Obama biopic at some point but he shouldn't be played by Will Smith. They should find someone more unknown and also it should be after his presidency so it can be as epic as possible.
In related news, Edward Norton is making a documentary on Obama's race for the White House.

Is this about the NPR piece? If not, then you should listen to it. The critic they talked to made a good case for Smith.

Obama is a very skinny guy. Will Smith has gotten much bigger since the Fresh Prince days.
After playing Ali he stayed huge

Nah. If the Obamaton will be captured by anyone, it'll be Denzel Washington as Barack with Regina King as Michelle.

Denzel has rounded out a bit with age, it seems.

Obama should play himself, Live, in a realistic environment. It'll be the best 4 year long movie ever. I even here they are thinking about making a sequel already

However, if this is to happen, then Hillary Clinton would have to make a movie too.
I imagine it would be a lot like Behind Enemy Lines, except with more sniper fire...

He should be played by jesse Jackson if only becuase his Foghorn Leghorn accent would make Obama's speeches much more funny.

Chiwetel Ejiofor, Denzel's co-star from Inside Man, is a much better choice.

They should just save the movie for Obama's possible election and eventual assasination :/
