Wasn't Aretha particularly critical about her portrayals on the big screen? Nothing against Cynthia whatsoever, but when Aretha was explicit, for instance, about how she wanted the likes of Halle Berry to portray her, then its clear that she wanted a certain caliber of talent. And we should respect her wishes.

Her voice doesn't have the slight rasp that Arethas did and it's not dramatic enough. Too much treble and not enough bass. She also looks more like Mary j blige than Aretha.

And Coli Trolls can't use that British actors are better than American actors bullshyt.

Because Jennifer Hudson is an Academy Award Winning Actress.

It should be one.

Aretha knew some fukk shyt like was going to happen by CAC Hollywood.

That's she specifically chose Jennifer Hudson before she died.

CAC Hollywood and their undermining of FBA never fails. :yeshrug:
Sooo you think they made two Aretha movies to undermine FBA











:unsure:

This is undermining the Jennifer Hudson movie.

CAC Hollywood know what they're doing.

It's definitely undermining Aretha Franklin wishes.

She knew some fukk shyt like this would happen and they are proving her right.:yeshrug:

Especially, when they are jumping in front of the RESPECT movie release.

:mjlol::russ:

when's the last time y'all watched NATGEO? be honest...

they can't undermine a movie with a tv series...

Your daddy Tariq know how to fire up his Stanleys. He don't raise people up just high blood pressure.
