The last words you hear on the song Straight Outta Compton is "that shit was dope".

everyone says that shit was dope, I am more so talking about the B part. Ppl on the west coast during that era was not saying B. Google NY slang and B.

 

[Juicy Bob]

As I live in one of the whitest places in the UK, I can't wait to watch this at the cinema virtually all on my own.

 

[neorej]

Looks good and honest. I'll be watching this.

Also: why is Drake playing Dre, E, Cube, Ren and Yella?

Paul Giamatti is a reason to put my ass in a seatanyway.

 

[SamuelSupreme]

Man that trailer was dope as hell to me.

DAY FUCKING ONE!!!

I will be in the theatre with my Jheri Curl dripping everywhere

Drake is playing dre?

 

[Dead Man]

Drake is playing dre?

Pretty sure he was joking based on the earlier post in the thread.

I can't tell if serious or not? woops.

Are you sure about that?

 

[chaobreaker]

I always assume anyone who mixes up two black people who look nothing alike as being a bit racist.

 

[neorej]

Straight Out Of Compton |OT| Drake is playing everyone except Paul Giamatti

 

[Crud]

I always assume anyone who mixes up two black people who look nothing alike as being a bit racist.

I agree with this.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Ya I really don't like Drake but he really looks like Cube in this. Sounds just like him too. This looks awesome.

 

[Dead Man]

I always assume anyone who mixes up two black people who look nothing alike as being a bit racist.

You seem fun.

 

[chaobreaker]

You seem fun.

Its stopped being funny after the first time.

*nods approvingly* looks good.

fixed that for ya.

 

[Dead Man]

You seem to have missed the joke. Continue not having any fun.

 

[chaobreaker]

You seem to have missed the joke. Continue not having any fun.

OK. Continue having your "fun".

 

[Dead Man]

OK. Continue having your "fun".

I'm not the one making the jokes, go yell at them to get off your lawn.

 

[Discotheque]

drake could maybe get away with playing yella but even that would be distracting

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Lol

Really nailed that Jheri curl.

Edit: Do you not think he looks like Cube?

 

[Gila]

Hyped, looks really good

 

[Booshka]

This looks great, and Paul Giamatti as their manager is excellent casting, hell, it's all excellent casting, aside from Drake of course.

Hyped as fuck for this movie.

 

[chaobreaker]

I'm not the one making the jokes, go yell at them to get off your lawn.

My god, do you realize how hard you are going into defending some shitty joke?

 

[oatmeal]

Looks fantastic

Casting is on point

 

[brianjones]

itt bunch of white people not even born in 1988 talking about "on point"

 

[neorej]

*nods approvingly* looks good.

fixed that for ya.

 

[Spaghetti]

into it.

kinda wish it looked more like the music videos of the period though, that'd be a cool artistic choice.

Samuel L Jackson: I'm not Laurence Fishburne!

Laurence Fishburne Talks About Being Mistaken For Samuel L. Jackson

 

[Dead Man]

My god, do you realize how hard you are going into defending some shitty joke?

I'm not defending it, I explained it. But since you struggled badly with comprehension so far I'm not expecting you to understand the difference.

itt bunch of white people not even born in 1988 talking about "on point"

Can I say those two words in that order if I am born before 1988? Or is there some other test I have to pass before using a common idiom of the English language?

 

[EASTC0AST_GH05T]

Are you sure about that?

lived on both sides of the US for a long time, I am pretty sure ppl in so cal was not saying B on the regular in the early 90s and 80s. B has been NY slang forever. West coast ppl actually pride themselves on not talking like or trying to be like ppl from NY in particular.

 

[Komo]

Doubt it'll ever reach Australia but ho snap. Day one

 

[kulapik]

Drake is in this? TAG SPOILERZ PLS

 

[neorej]

Drake is in this? TAG SPOILERZ PLS

Rumors have it that

Spoiler

Dre, Easy E, Ren, DJ Yella and Thanos

are also in this.

The real question is;

Spoiler

which role will Samuel L Jackson play?

 

[John Bender]

Looks damn good!

 

[The Sarcastic Dude]

Looks good, will definitely watch.

 

[bodyboarder]

This looks way better then I thought it would.

 

[bodyboarder]

As I live in one of the whitest places in the UK, I can't wait to watch this at the cinema virtually all on my own.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

looks good

 

[nib95]

Actually quite excited to see this. Hope it doesn't exaggerate the truth too excessively.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Exaggerate, conveniently leave out, and completely make up. Those are three things you should be expecting when you watch any kind of fact-based film.

In this case tho, I don't even care, I'm hype as fuck for this.

 

[plainr_]

This looks dope.

Fucking love that Cube's son is playing him.

 

[Kozak]

Cubes son looks even more like Cube in person.

I tripped out at his show in Sydney.

 

[Corpekata]

Back half was great but the intro + start of the trailer made this look like the biggest vanity project in the world.

 

[aku:jiki]

This looks pretty fun! I thought the casting for E seemed especially appropriate. Loved the scene of them recording what appeared to be their first few sessions.

itt bunch of white people not even born in 1988 talking about "on point"

Unlike yourself, who was 25 in 1988, lived in Compton and was a close personal friend of NWA.

Why did you even spend 10 seconds out of your day to type that?

 

[travisbickle]

OP made a mistake, got a little mixed up because Drake's music is a lot like Ice Cube's was. Both keeping it real.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Straight outta Degrassi.

 

[impact]

What a terrible cast

I think I like NWA too much to pay money to see this. Disgusting.

 

[nel e nel]

Looks good. Damn good.

Youtube comment

N.W.A got lot of dead niggas blood on their hands. D you know how many hoods across America was effected by N.W.A. aND HOW MANY BROTHERS lost they life to believing this group. Nobody was into gang culture in Hiphop till N.W.A. dropped. The niggas went to wildin' so deeper than others. Yes, Cube and Dre are rich now , but at the expense of they own people who they influenced. FACTS!

Guess this guy never heard of Afrika Bambaataa

 

[EASTC0AST_GH05T]

will this be better then CB4 though?
