The inaccuracy of the second half of Straight Outta Compton keeps the movie from being a classic.

[Easy-E]

Can't wait for the Jay-Z Biopic where he loses 92 Bricks and lives to tell the story, Guru unleashes the flutes as Hov completely disregards any existence of Jaz-O, Calvin "Klein" Bacote, & Dehaven. He blows up and sells millions of albums rapping on nothing but his own sheer God given talent, knocks out Beanie Sigel in disgust from constantly getting in trouble, never takes any of Biggie's lines, unanimously defeats NaSir Jones in a rap battle because Ether doesn't exist & takes credit for all of Dame Dash's contributions to the success of Roc-a-fella Records (such as signing Kanye to be a rapper & running the business for example) all while portraying Dame as nothing more than a loud mouth, obnoxious, vain, dancing buffoon who could never avoid ruining business relationships by placing his foot in his mouth...............................all while going on to become the greatest rapper and businessman hip hop has ever seen.

What's messed up is; Jay's real life story is pretty damn dope, but, this is exactly what they would do.

Yeah, my biggest problem with it is how they messed up Eazy's story.

honestly i could start a whole thread on my issues with it (maybe later at work)

but the biggest goof is their version of foreshadowing eazy has hiv/AIDS. is him coughing randomly every few scenes. WTF.

IN GENERAL the whole movie felt Disneyfied. Even scenes with guns, and cops harassment never felt dangerous. Dre OBVIOUSLY had them rewrite history to make him seem cooler, because the whole movie revolves around him


i rather they had done this shyt lord of the rings style. give me 2 or 3 movies if you need to in order to tell the story with some degree of detail... This thread makes me hope the 2Pac biopic never gets released. It was getting mad promo and primed for a 9.13.16 release then ...quiet. IT MUST BE TRASH.

 

[MarloStanTrill]

I know Pooh was hella salty lookin at that shyt

not to mention nothing about Singleton or Boyz n the Hood just "magically Cube wrote a classic movie"

 

[MarloStanTrill]

they should have gave this story to bet

 

[MarloStanTrill]

I mean I personally can't see myself getting mad.

If his own wife doesn't give a shyt, I'm not gonna loose sleep over it.

His wife couldnt wait till he died to sucl all the money out the label and screw Bone Thugs over. My morality is not determined by some golddigging widow thot.

 

[MarloStanTrill]

La Bamba was said to be an accurate bio

but who cares?

of course, because it was tomica's fault that easy was sleeping with questionable women and got sick and passed on. also what makes you think tomicia is the only one that was making descions on their career

it would be interesting to see how Dame, Cam, Beans would be portrayed.
even Ye would be made to look to like a Hov stan that got lucky.

This thread is making me mad all over again. I got nothing but disrespect for both them clowns if I ever meet them.

The two biggest frauds in hip hop history.

Dre never wrote a bar in his life and probably hasn't actually made a beat since the 80's.

Cube is the OG studio gangsta.

 

[Ziggiy]

the question is.....has ther ever been an accurate movie bio?

The Jackson's An American Dream is pretty accurate save for a few minor things

For instance, Berry Gordy was NOT in attendance during the Jacksons audition for Motown. It was taped and sent to him in California .

But the broader strokes are pretty accurate

its still a thread out there where somebody challenged anybody to post one actual video of dre making a beat start to finish...even a throwaway. Not one person could find SHYT.

every other producer you can find at least one, some like zaytoven got dozens out there

 

[Ziggiy]

I feel the same way @stomachlines

first half was classic

second half was some bullshyt

they should've ended the movie with eazys death and not dre leaving death row
they should've included the ruthless death row beef
they shoulve gave more props to bone
they should've not made eazy look like a chump, which angers me the most
pac shouldn't have been in the movie at all

Couple questions bro

Did Eazy and Cube really make peace at the club before his AIDS diagnosis?


There are conflicting views in this thread on whether or not Heller was really fukking over all of them and Cube was the smart one for telling him to go to hell. This is the story I've ALWAYS read to be true. Are there inaccuracies in this story?

Was Eazy at ALL cool enough with Cube and Dre to be talking about a full on NWA reunion before his diagnosis or was that just "movie magic"?

I've always read that Suge did indeed go with some of his goons to "secure" Dre's release from his NWA contract. If Eazy didn't get hands out on him then who did?

Regarding all of the inaccuracies in the movie, follow ArtemusGordon on Instagram to get the truth. Heller was not fukking them over. Bryan from Priority put the idea in Cube's head. Cube was away at college and wasn't a big part of the group when they really blew up and he got offered the contract. Dre rarely interacted with Pac at Death Row. Tomica, Dre and Cube sanitized the entire story.

the question is.....has ther ever been an accurate movie bio?

Even the new Edition story had Ricky as the cokehead with the problem and not Bobby...u woulda thought Bobbys coke problem was just a teenage phase the way they portrayed it.

Thing..Bobby shyt played out in real life media..even had his own reality show..so we know how that went.

Really didnt have to focus on that in the movie..

I never knew Ricky was a drug head tho
