mike epps did an incredible job
my uncle who didn't speak a word of english stayed quoting 'deydey'
he lived with us back when it came out and he would demand us to play 'deydey'

Chris Tucker is funnier than Mike Epps but Mike is hilarious

 

[Justin Nitsuj]

Is he high? Chris Tucker is the reason why people even bother seeing the other two Friday movies. Not to shyt on Mike Epps, but he's not funnier than Chris.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Hope it wasn’t anything malicious behind it

Sounds like Chris just said he didn’t want to portray that image anymore. I think it worked out for both of them.

Idk if I would say Mike is funnier though, Chris pretty much carried all the comedy in the first one and went off to carry other movies on his own

 

[get these nets]

Cube seems to be making up sh*t.

Hmmm. I am going to play Devils advocate and say Mike Epps was as good as Chris and he low key saved the 3rd movie for me. Just my opinion. He's not laugh out loud hilarious as Chris Tucker but he's Mike Epps is a better actor imo.

 

[Devilinurear]

He really means cheaper

 

[The Wolf Among You]

Cube sound bitter as hell.
I think whatever Cube had for Next Friday with Chris Tucker in his mind had more potential than what he made with Mike Epps.

 

[Billie Jean]

Mike Epps is funnier to me but Chris Tuckers performance in the Friday was phenomenal

Sounds like Chris just said he didn’t want to portray that image anymore.

I’ve heard that story before but he cursed in other movies after Friday

HES STILL SCORNED AND HURT

[CHICAGO]

I’ve heard that story before but he played a junkie who curses in other movies after Friday

THE CLASSIC MOVIE "DEAD PRESIDENTS"
CAME OUT IN 1995
THE SAME YR AS FRIDAY...

NEXT FRIDAY CAME OUT IN 2000

Such as?

I don’t believe for a second he offered Chris Tucker 12 million for next Friday. Friday had a budget of 3.5 million and made 27 million at the box office. Next Friday only had a buffet of 11 million and Friday after next had a budget of 10 million.

Next Friday would have filmed after Rush Hour broke out. So I think Chris could have demanded 12. But ain’t no way in hell Cube offered him 12.
