    Hell Yeah! I 'm a big Ridley Scott fan. Big Russel Crowe fan too for that matter, and Denzel is usually pretty damn good. Great story to tell too. Can't wait!

    HELL YES!

    i am all over this like white on rice. i love russell crowe and the story looks interesting, so i'm looking forward to it :)

    It can't get too much better than Crowe chasing Denzel. I mean, no matter the plot, the movie would still be fucking good with these two actors..

    It looks good.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    I'm a dirty sob, it's both a crutch as well as a gift. Yeah, we're hitting it up on Saturday afternoon and those old fuckers here like to line up for hours prior to the movie..I don't think they do the internet and/or fandango..

    oh i know you're filthy, i find it endearing :p haha

    line up for hours? eep! as i'm thinking about it, i'm probably gonna see it at this local art deco theater if they're playing it. no internet or fandango dealie there, but the place has more character and won't be as crowded

    By 'something else,' do you mean sexual stuff? Anything other is unacceptable. This is definitely a theater type movie..

    Yeah, I thought so too...in fact I probably will see it in the theatre...the computer screen was really big though (it was like a medium sized tv). As to what I was doing...lol, yes it was sex...I did want to watch the movie a little more than fool around, but oh well. lol :D

    I thought I smelled something funny ;)..I don't get it though, couldn't you pause the damn thing for two minutes?

    Yeah, if I had my way we would have paused it...but actually, if I could go back in time I would have skipped the romp session and JUST watch the movie...the movie was great but that is about it (ok, WAY too much info for this thread).

    I read an article in rollingston that said the Jay Z saw an advanced screening of it...and it reminded him for the first time of the mindset he had back in his youth when he was selling drugs. he immediately went into the studio...had the film running on a loop above the controls and that is how he made his latest album. he called pufffy...got some tracks from him...and a few other peeps...and that was that. but basically...this movie inspired his whole new album that should be coming out sometime in a little bit.

    In chicago the boot of this movie flying around like crazy. Everyone already has a perfect DVD copy (including myself). I won't say anything about the movie, but It is very very good, just very long.

    I think this movie got leaked. Go to any Bit torrent site and you can download this movie and its a great quailty. normally newer movies like this on Bit torrent site are guys filming a movie with there video camera.

    This is exactly what America needs.....more glamorous portrayal of black violence.
