Ice Cube and Friday

[freakerdude]

I couldn't find any thread on this and thought I'd get some comments on this. I know some of you may think it's a piece of crap, but I really like this movie.

Ice Cube and DJ Pooh (who starred as Red) wrote the story and this cat named F. Gary Gray directed it. I think this is one of those very funny movies that also has an important message. Yes, it's mainly a film about black life in the hood and I think there needs to be more movies like this. I know that pot was heavily used throughout the movie but I wouldn't say it was over-glorified as to what Craig's father says to him about fighting (I won't give away what I think is the best line in the movie). This movie delivers laughs and a good message about growing up in the hood. It is not a gangsta movie, so to speak. Any comments?

Next Friday  and the 3rd are ok.

F. Gary Gray also directed

Italian Job, The (2003)

Man Apart, A (2003)

Negotiator, The (1998)

I remember finding it funny when i saw it. I have not watched it in a while.

The scene that just popped in my head is when Chris Tuckers character (Smokey i think?) is having the dream he is locked in the chickan coup. That was hilarious.

It is a firm favorite of mine, I've seen it loads of times.

favorite line.
Mr. Jones [on toilet]: Boy, get your ass in here. I smelled your shit for...22 years. Now you can smell mine for five minutes.

most quoted line.
Smokey: Puff puff, give. Puff puff, give. You're fuckin' up the rotation.

The director has a cameo as the guy mopping the floor in the store where Ezal fakes his slip n fall.

Everyone I've shown this film to has liked it, which has to say something.

I always found the first one humorous...

the rest were like "we know, you're black and you like pot."

some more good ones:

What's up big Perm ......I mean big Worm?

Craig and Smokey ask Red how his eye was doing. As Red removes his glasses, the reply with a drawn out "DAAAAAAAAMN!"

I got mind control over Deebo. When he say shut up - I be quiet. But when he leave, I be talking again.

Smokey, you know I ain't the smartest man in the world, but, from back here it look like you're taking a shit!

Craigs dad: I grab a dog. I choke him and I kick the shit out of him. All day long got my foot up a dog's ass. Just bang, bang, bang up his ass. That's my pleasure.

Reverend: What we call drugs at the 74th Street Baptist Church we call the sin of sin sins.
Smokey: Well round here, between Harmony and Western, we call this here a little twenty twen twen...
Craig Jones: Right...
Smokey: Nigga...
Reverend: Give me a little for my cataracts.
Smokey: You didn't put in on this man!
