was like, I don't know how you feel about Belly

Never mind.

Speaker 5 (07:02):
I don't know how much belly costs, but yeah, that's
all so yeah?

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Uh so box office? So do you think it cracked
the top ten?

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Hell? Now, what number fifteen? Fifteen is? Major Pain?

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Major Pain? Was ninety five? Holy shit? Pick a number
twelve twelve was Forrest gun God damn Forrest Gumans still
in the theaters. Yeah, so this film comes, uh sixteen
debut sixteen debuts with New Jersey Drive.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
So maybe with the picked new that's rape too, ain't it?

Speaker 7 (07:44):
Yo?

Speaker 1 (07:44):
What the fuck going on?

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yo?

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Just to give you an easy peak, I guess it
looks like around your birthday would be while you were
sleeping Kiss of Death, New Jersey Drive, to Cure Burnt
by the Sun, Swimming with the Sharks and crom that's
just for ninety five. Yeah, but in the world of

(08:09):
the box office, were Bad Boys is still number two?
Kisser Deaf obviously, Rob Roy Goofy movies in there, Jewelry Duty,
Tommy Boys in their Outbreak, Forrest Gump.

Speaker 4 (08:23):
Wait, wait, wait a minute, why didn't we have a
chance to read none of these movies? Where was Bad Boys?

Speaker 1 (08:28):
This is ninety five? So this is in the future,
the future? Yeah, yeah, uh, and then that's really for
the box office. Uh. Ron Tomatoes. Critics gives it forty
five percent, audience gives it seventy six percent. That's what
I said, people, bro, this was blowout. It wasn't even close.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Would you agree with I'm laying in with the critics.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Yeah, forty five percent? Yeah, the lower score yeah.

Speaker 7 (09:00):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Roger Ebert, you know that nigga don't? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yeah, yeah, I think they both did. But I could
be wrong? Will he says, January first, two thousand. Will
there be ever be a market for a movie about
a character who Harris passed his drug phase because he
can't wait to tell you what he did after he
pulled his act together. Probably not. He gives it a

(09:27):
two out of four. Shoutouts the legend, Emanuel Levi says,
June fifteen, two thousand and five. So, seniors of the
film release, you never understand that what really motivated his
intelligence as an adult a gift the basketball player and
sensitive writer to descend into a hellish life of a
drug addict and hustler on the mean streets in New York.

(09:50):
Two out of five I agree with that one no
Name January twenty six, twenty fifteen, so twenty years that
the films came out dark and empty. I didn't think
the acting was very good either. I had a difficult
time sitting through it and got a little out of
the experience. I'm still trying to figure out why it
is called the Basketball Diaries. First and only playing some

(10:13):
basketball barely, he said, first and only viewing and then
deenius four point five out of five star in November
twenty eight, twenty four. I can't say I wasn't amazed
by Leo and it had flaws. I don't know why

(10:33):
it was amazed by Leo. Hard watch there, yeah, hard
watch like motherfucker. Then I don't know if you guys
knows about a lawsuit. They got a lawsuit in this film,
it said. The film became controversial in the after math
in nineteen ninety seven Heath High School shooting. I even
know there was a nineteen ninety seven shooting. I guess
that's famous too, and the nineteen ninety nine Combine shooting.

(10:56):
Critics noted that similarities between those shooting the attacks and
the dream sequence in the film, in which the protagonist,
Leo where is a black trench coat and shoots the
six students in the school.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
The class has been named, and loss was brought by
relatives and murders.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
Of the victims. Ninety nine activists Jack Thompson found a
thirty three million dollar lass who claiming the film's plot,
along with two internet pornography sites, several computer game companies
and makers and distributors of the nineteen ninety four Natural
Born Killers caused the Heath High School shooting.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Right the case was dismissing two thousand and one.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
Prequel.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
I would say, I don't think there's no prequels aditions.

Speaker 5 (11:37):
Bro trench coats are I mean, like trench coats and
black trench coats as that in movies they go together
with guns usually yeah, yeah, I mean or something else. Yeah,
but I don't know, why would you I would assume
that that is crazy? Yeah, well stress was it the

(11:58):
Columbine kids they call it the trench.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Coat my fears and they was Holy ship? Yeah, damn.
I mean, how many black kids got away?

Speaker 4 (12:09):
A lot of Probably the one black kid that went
to the school.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
For me, as soon as I've seen them, Oh yeah,
they ain'ten to know good.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
I'm out.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
There was a lot of black kids there.

Speaker 1 (12:20):
You take it then I'm sick. Sick. I'm believing Nigga
used to watch the news later. But no, your son
takets flow in the school. No, I don't agree with
C C has D taking it, Bro, I don't.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
I don't like that at all.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Like, no, bro, because do you get it back at lunch?
How does that work?

Speaker 4 (12:43):
Also, it's like, what if it's an emergency, That's what.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
I'm saying, Bro, that's thank you. Yeah, I don't. I
don't get that whole ship, but whatever.

Speaker 5 (12:54):
I get it. But then also at the same time,
it's like the phone is a distraction for like like
just people just period. Like means you could be just
chilling out someplace and then somebody whip out their phone
and you know, doodle or whatever. But when it comes

(13:17):
to like you know kids, like if the teachers talking
and they're not interested in something that they want to
talk about or want to learn or hear, they're just
gonna whip out their phone and just be like whatever.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
Whatever.

Speaker 5 (13:30):
So it's like it's best to be like, hey, you know,
leave your phone at home or whatever whatever, because I
got to teach you.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
I look at it like this, it's the teacher's responsibility.
To teach the class, and it is the student's responsibility
to pay attention. So if they're not paying attention on
the phone, oh well, that's like the teacher, just do
your job and focus on the kids that are. But
this motherfucker's working at McDonald's. He can trace it back

(14:06):
to being in school on his phone.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
But also, I mean, I went to school with phones.
My teacher took my phone and I get it back
at the end of that period. So if you whip
out your phone, hey, Johnny, put that ship up Politian,
all right, I'm taking it for the period, but in passing,
I can't have my phone.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
My grandma may have died. Like that's how I got
a text my uncle said that ship.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
I'm like, damn. I was like, damn my grandma.

Speaker 5 (14:29):
Pa.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
I walked home, hmm, that's.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
Right.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
I'm like, damn nigga. Like Jesus Christ. Yeah, I was like,
all right, I guess I'm going home. I'm checked out
for the day. What are they doing?

Speaker 4 (14:46):
Was it like, did he at least send like a
heartfelt message or likes?

Speaker 1 (14:53):
I'm like, damn nigga. I was like, all right, exactly,
we get to call me when you can jesus, yeah,
fu man.

Speaker 5 (15:10):
So I'll be okay with Like if you're teachers, like hey,
at the beginning of the period, we have to take
your phone away, right, right. Of course, nobody can have
their fight right right right, But then after class then
you can have your.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Phone, right, That's what I'm saying. I don't know if
they do that like through passing, so I'll be cool
with that. And then on top of that, you're delaying
it because it's Kevin Harsh. I don't know if you'll
know it. It's a little lock so kind of.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
Cutting into baistribute.

Speaker 1 (15:42):

him through like a camp or nothing.

drug addict, probably because we don't got a lot of those.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
I can't really even think.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Yeah, I don't even used to gamble. Maybe gamble addicts.

Speaker 4 (23:02):
Mm hmmm, what drug addict I can think of any
The only one.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
I mean, I've never really seen him do like.

Speaker 4 (23:12):
Of course the point there are people in that light
of course.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
Uh yeah, we movies.

Speaker 5 (23:20):
I can't think that neither the heavy drugs being drug
addicts one white person. No no, no, no no.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
Some one of my favorite moves by Robert down I
think it's called ground zero when he's a drug addict.
You ever seen it?

Speaker 4 (23:36):
He's addict that you're drugs biopic.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
Basically, let me see groom zero. It's like him you
remembering the.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
News, let me see groom zero.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Where's it at anyway, y'all keep I'll find it.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Yeah, I really don't know a whole bunch of.

Speaker 4 (23:59):
I can't remember any movie where somebody white was hooked
on drugs.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
That's loman think about it.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
This is like alcohol alcohol.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
Yeah, they do have a lot of movies where they
be alcoholics.

Speaker 5 (24:16):
Or you have like one white guy in like a
black with tupac and.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
Oh yeah yeah, Gridlock or what's the Gridlocked? It is
either Gridlock or the other one you're talking about.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
It's got to be Gridlock because Gridlock. He was a
copy's Gang Related.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Okay, yeah, gred Lot, Yeah yeah, Gridlock was dope. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
That was like one of the last movies, right, I
think Gang Related was the last.

Speaker 4 (24:46):
Oh yeah, yeah, well he died while filming it.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Less than zero. Ye, both of them who have become
drug addicts. The film is sports culture Wealthy descended Young
Youth in Los Angeles. M hmm, yep. That budget was
eight million and may twelve million. We'll tell them niggas
on our comments. But yeah, a relevant scene for me,

(25:11):
the school shooter scene. I think it's it is really
irrelevant because he definitely should have shot Swifty the fuck
you shoot me for like, I just because we literally
just seen the scene right before, so you would think you.

Speaker 2 (25:23):
Think that would be the one.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
Yeah, yeah, definitely irrelevant. I didn't understand that. Yeah, why
is this in here?

Speaker 1 (25:30):
Thank you?

Speaker 4 (25:31):
Yeah, it brought no value to the movie at all.

Speaker 7 (25:36):
Man.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
I think it's crazy, like he.

Speaker 5 (25:42):
Okay, you're going to go buy drugs or whatever in
the first place, and then they're like, we don't have that,
but we got this, and you just willingly like okay,
Like no, bro.

Speaker 4 (25:55):
I've never really been one to partake in the drugs,
so I don't know how it works. But to me,
I feel like like I'm a like I like, uh, whiskey.
I go to the liquor store and they're like, we're
completely out of whiskey.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
All we have is gin.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
I'm not gonna just buy the fucking gin. I'm just
gonna go home or whatever somewhere else. So I don't
know if maybe Drug Addicts is just like whatever drugs,
but I thought like Drug Addicts had like like crack.
This is what I do. I don't do hero you know,
I score coke, you know, I don't. I don't mess
around with like that's what I thought. But maybe they

(26:37):
just do.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
Anything whatever's gonna give. You think that's what.

Speaker 4 (26:40):
They're crazy like, you just but it's like every high
is different, right, never never have been there, so I
don't know, but I thought every high was different. So
it's like, do you how do you know you want
that high?

Speaker 2 (26:58):
I don't know. It's weird. I gotta bring a drug out.

he was a druga that one touse.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
That's true. Oh there we go.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
Yeah, I mean if you counted man, that was in

Speaker 5 (27:48):
Was like a different type of drug, white ludes and
ship Okay, they were it was also on coke.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
He was a big true but I consider that, like.

Speaker 4 (28:00):
I was doing the queludes and the Downers and then
doing Get Itself Back Out. Yeah, that's that's big time usage.

Speaker 5 (28:12):
But I mean ship it played on his emotions of

Speaker 4 (28:44):
White boy Rick, you watched that movie?

Speaker 2 (28:47):

white boy Rick didn't have it had black.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
People in there too, just all white people. Would it
be drugs?

Speaker 1 (29:02):

Speaker 2 (29:02):
Wouldn selling drugs? Oh you're talking about Boston, Georgie.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
And whoa Yeah, I think you said addicts.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
Yeah, it was about drug dealers, So yeah, I guess
it would be Blow.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Blue, great movie Blue, that's what you heard.

Speaker 4 (29:20):
You've never seen Blow God's probably one of this. Definitely
a top five Johnny dea movie.

Speaker 4 (30:01):
While I was watching this, I was thinking, I was like,
I wonder if I should show this land and really
don't do drugs like this even.

Speaker 1 (30:10):
Though you think you're playing basketball. How it could go? Yeah,
let me see the end. Those that I got is
uh my first assumption. Like I said, I thought Leo
was a basketball coach because the way on the cover
he's in a suit. Yeah, so I'm like, oh, ship, okay,

(30:30):
but you thought this was going to be.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
What's the movie with Morgan Freeman.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
That's a lot of them. Yeah, something like that, bro,
Like something happened to coach Don he had to take over.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
A lot of schools, like private schools that make you
wear a suit.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
Yeah, yeah, specting record schools make you do it.

Speaker 5 (30:53):
Yeah, yeah, it is West West. Yeah, West Middle you
went to West Middle School. I remember that would.

Speaker 1 (31:02):
Make whatever they went somewhere, they had to wear.

Speaker 5 (31:04):
Yeah, you gotta yeah, you gotta dress well, everybody else
had on the Breakaways.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
It was wearing and ship. Bro, Yeah you have to
dress us stupid.

Speaker 5 (31:16):
Uh, let me see go out ball score thirty on it, nigga.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
If you're scoring thirty in middle school to NBA right now,
God damn they got out of energy. And me playing
two K on a video game trying to score one hundred,
I'm like, God damn, you still ain't out one hundred, Ship,
I means got to shoot that. I was thinking in
real life, I'm like, these niggas gotta be tired from
scoring like in real life, like eighty one.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
Bro. That's crazy crazy.

Speaker 5 (31:45):
It depends, you know, because it's like how much energy
is your teammates feeding you in the opposing team? Because
I didn't seen the nigga walking to the gym talk
ship from the time he walked set foot on the
court to the time we get out into the parking lot,
like all fucking day, you'd be like, God damn, nigga.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
Shut up talking. That's the nigga claim the thing. That's
how coboy. So I think it just depends on what
type of energy. Yeah to the table.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
Uh yeah, why I feel like young young Ethan Hawks
should have been in this, you know what, because he
was around that age too. No, Jim is a real
one for taking Bobby to the strip strip show at
the hospital. It's not gonna be the next time.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
The last time you see some titties.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
Brother, we're trying to get you something you don't want that.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
Damn, I wouldn't feel the same way.

Speaker 5 (32:44):
Like bro, she legit looked at him, looked at the legs,
and he knew, like, yeah, will you bitch get me
out of here.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
Man, you're right because I mean, damn, if you're dying,
maybe you don't want thy like, damn me, don't he
don't need to wear a condom. I'm out of here
the next few hours.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah, that'd be crazy. Hey you're going to live?

Speaker 1 (33:15):
No, Yeah, that's how I go. That's how I go.
That's how my life will go. Oh yeah, you're gonna live.
But we also did blood work and you have football dames. No,
oh man, that would be hilarious. No, that's what happened.
To that movie on forty on forty, I think he
went and like balled out and too remember that one.

(33:37):
But what's a little kid named? Well, he's a grown
ass man now. He played Robin in that trilogy quote
unquote that batman, Robin Trill, Joe No, Joseph Gordon Levy.
He played with uh what is that nigga name? Vince Vaughan,
and he like shaved his head because they said, I remember, yeah, yeah,

(34:00):
and then whole life change. And remember when Bobby died.
I said, damn, you couldn't just go get your swee.
You have to go get dog food. That's where you go.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
You just say fuck it when they got the dog food?

Speaker 1 (34:15):
How that crazy to get a syringe and shoot it
in you man? What the fuck?

Speaker 5 (34:22):
No, you don't got to snort it, you gotta shoot it.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
It's like, bro, like I've been around motherfuckers that have
done drugs. Like I've been around and I've seen my
fuckers just pull out the start going sing it, you know, ship.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Like that pills. Whoa you know you just looking like
that's crazy.

Speaker 4 (34:44):
But I just couldn't imagine being around, you know, having
a conversation at a party niggas start breaking out the belt.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
Break you got talking about you want to nigga, get out.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
Get out? Also, like that just seems like an inconvenience.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
That's what I'm saying. They're not gonna tie catch my
veing to do it exactly.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
I think that's why be in such a rush to
do it anywhere.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
I'm not until I get on my way home before
i start, so by the time I get home.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
I think that's probably why the oxygen pills took off.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
Basically, that's what I heard. Yeah, it is no, I
could be comfort at the bar.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
Probably. No.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
That's why this ship with dream Girls and Eddie Murphy
is so funny, bro, because they're like Jimmy, No, Jimmy.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
I remember that.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
It was so fucking funny, bro.

Speaker 5 (35:58):
I think about it like growing up, like back then
when drugs is like really like in full effect. I
don't know, it was like I was around crackheads or
people that did drugs.

Speaker 4 (36:14):
I've seen people smoke crack, yeah, but it's like never heroin.

Speaker 5 (36:19):
I never wanted to partake in it, right exactly, but
I knew what it was to be like, Okay.

Speaker 2 (36:25):
Probably it scared you. I've seen when I was little.

Speaker 4 (36:30):
You know, I've seen people I know smoke crack and
I'm like, oh, I don't want to be like that. Yeah,
stripping off the crazy. I'm like, that is not the
lifestyle cool and never doing that.

Speaker 5 (36:45):
It's crazy that people think, well not think, but that
you have to like keep those people away from the
kids today. Could you think your kids would want to,
you know, like be that type of way. But it's
also at the same time me being around those people like,
I'm like, no, I never want to be like that.

(37:06):
Never in my life. Some of the coolest people, I'll
give you that, Like, you know, crackheads was cool back
in the nineties.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
They drop some wisdom, could be having some wisdom. People
will tell you, don't be like me, don't do this
not like okay, all right?

Speaker 1 (37:32):
Uh when Jim was in a confessional booth and he
kept because I thought, I thought that was actually funny. Father,
I mean, ship pissed. I mean, uh no, Now, what
the fuck signal did I give you to let you
know I wanted sexual activity from you?

Speaker 2 (37:51):
Heay, was you waiting in the shower for me? Nigger?

Speaker 1 (37:54):
What can you go? Coach the team? Like, yeah, you're
looking at me what.

Speaker 5 (38:01):
I think it was just the fact that knowing he's
on drugs, and people that you know typically are on
drugs that do anything for the drug money.

Speaker 4 (38:11):
So he was trying to touch him, Yeah, because he
was trying to put it in his mouth.

Speaker 2 (38:15):
He was trying to put his thing in his mouth.
He said what he said, he said, just let me
do it.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
Yeah, I didn't know what he was doing. What did
you think I was like trying to warm him up
or something like. I don't know what he was doing,
because like, that's all they want to offer you. I'll
give you some head. I get that from a woman.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
I don't know what you want me. Somebody can't get that.
Is weird.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
To pay.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
That's what I'm trying to say.

Speaker 2 (38:42):
You see what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Someone, That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
Yeah, you were trying to get exactly. I'm so lost
right now.

Speaker 1 (38:51):
Where's the women actually do that? Hey?

Speaker 2 (38:54):

sixty she was under sixteen?

Speaker 2 (39:35):
Oh it was all he said. He he said he
thought she was sixteen.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
And if you think in your hand, which is.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
Yeah yeah, so she was.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
I didn't know sixteen.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Yeah, that's okay.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
It was eighteen.

Speaker 4 (40:01):
Oh lord, that's a baby. Why would anybody want to mess.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
With it's literally a baby. Bro.

Speaker 4 (40:07):
I don't even to mess with nobody who's twenty five.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Damn. I feel like they're damn.

Speaker 4 (40:14):
God, damn sixteen. While if they.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
Thought she was bro whatever, why wouldn't you check right?
You check right?

Speaker 1 (40:24):
Like people learn from other people's mistakes. You didn't learn
from all the r Kellys or whoever else. Bro, So
now you're about to go to prison.

Speaker 4 (40:31):
Also, my thing is, so you got because lately I
don't know what's been going on with these family teachers that.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Have been fucking yeah yeah, yeah they are fine.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
So why aren't these creepy men teachers looking up with them?
Why don't they just get together?

Speaker 4 (40:52):
Why isn't there like a freaky teacher rappably they get together?

Speaker 2 (40:57):
Dude, nasty shit, Yeah, I don't. They don't like each other.

Speaker 4 (41:01):
YEA.

Speaker 5 (41:05):
When a woman gets older, because all right, this game
this is as as as a young guy shooting a
shot at older women. Like when I was sixteen, let's
shoot my shot women, that was one.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
Shooting shooting the lights.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
This like Ben Simon's no, but thinks you're.

Speaker 5 (41:35):
I'm not saying anything and I never did anything, you know,
when I was sixteen or whatever.

Speaker 1 (41:40):
But like.

Speaker 5 (41:43):
It was like they just wanted to be wanted, you know,
because like as a when you're older, like you just
like like, oh you might get a compliment or something
like that. But like from a woman, this is my perspective,
I think that you just want to be wanted.

Speaker 2 (41:59):
And man, I was like I look good.

Speaker 5 (42:02):
They're always telling me I look good, you know whatever, whatever,
And that's what I got when I was like sixteen
talking to the older ladies like that. But the only
reason why I talk to older ladies at sixteen, it's
just to have conversation. Mhm, that's it. I just want
a game because I didn't have no game at all.
You said you shooting shots? So how you shoot shots
with no game? Yo, that's how I'm learning learnt. I'm

(42:25):
learning you didn't corner. So when I hit the court, I'm.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
Like, oh yeah, I feel who ready? When I hit
the court, I was tyrone loup when you fail and
got stepped over. But yeah, I.

Speaker 5 (42:42):
Think it's because they want to be on it. And
then at the same time, like like I noticed, like
when I was around that age, like younger girls wanted
to talk to older guys because they had certain things.

Speaker 2 (42:55):
They had cars and ship.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
Yeah, I was what grade being called a scrub.

Speaker 5 (42:59):
It's like they called you a scrub because I didn't
have a card, Like of course I stayed.

Speaker 1 (43:06):
With my mama.

Speaker 2 (43:08):
Yeah, I'm fourteen.

Speaker 4 (43:11):
Jesus Christ, where do you think I live?

Speaker 5 (43:16):
So it's like it's I don't know, I think that
feeling of being wanted is is weird, especially here in
it in the state. So yeah, you really got to
be on your p's and q's. That's why whenever you
get a compliment like oh, as an adult male, likeever

(43:37):
you get a compliment from this lady, you really got
a double check and check it off and she'd be like,
oh okay, thank you. Get the funk about it because
you don't know this person. What if Aaron give you
a compliment.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
If another another dude is going to give you.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
A compliment anyway, not me giving you a compliment, Hernandez
is giving you a cup?

Speaker 2 (44:01):
What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Do you mean you know what the fun I mean
by the niggas used as the verb now in this.

Speaker 2 (44:09):
Pod run away?

Speaker 5 (44:12):
Wait, you use Aaron Hernandez as the director as well.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
What no, that's Ryan Murphy. Don't get murphied. But yeah, no.

Speaker 5 (44:31):
It's a feeling of being one and I believe m
M I think from a women's and then these niggas
gotta stop telling on the women, y'all fucking up the game?

Speaker 1 (44:40):
Uh? Yes, so crazy. How Leo acts in this film,
which could have been could have ruined his career for
me seeing this thirty years later. Uh, next year he
bounces back with Romeo and Juliet in ninety six ninety
seven Titanic.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
That's crazy. I bet you didn't even looking that.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
Damn. Two years ago, I was getting great. Now I'm
with somebody, married woman on the boat about to die.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
But when was man in an Iron Mask? Probably after that? Really?

Speaker 4 (45:14):
Really, hey, Siri, when did the Man in the Iron
Mask come out?

Speaker 1 (45:20):
That seemed like a mid nineties.

Speaker 4 (45:21):
Field nineteen ninety eight.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
Wow, you're talking about a run. That's crazy. Thee That
movie to me really showcases back team Damn, not even
Titanic or Romeo ju that's crazy, bro.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
Titanic was cool, like to play two people.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Yeah, I like exactly.

Speaker 4 (45:42):
Yeah, he did better acting in this ship and Romeo
and Juliet and he did in Titanic. Titanic. Really it
wasn't really about acting. It was really I feel like
everyone was more you know, involved with like the special effects.

Speaker 5 (45:57):
Show you okay, oh, set the history history, Yeah, okay.

Speaker 4 (46:04):
I don't remember him giving like an amazing It.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
Was just yeah, it was basically it felt like this
nigga was Jim just on the boat. Yeah. Yeah, you
feel that way. It really was.

Speaker 5 (46:15):
Yeah, and that's crazy, like when you think of a
certain actor and you could like really look at like
certain movies that they have been in and you're like, bro,
you just tapped into the role of this, Yeah, this film.

Speaker 1 (46:28):

Speaker 2 (48:53):
The Other Guy. You're a pimp?

Speaker 1 (48:55):
Yeah no, that's hilarious. Managed money, Yeah but yeah, any
last words for this film probably not?

Speaker 2 (49:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (49:10):
All right, So the facts about the film I Got
is Jim Carroll, writer on the subject of the movie
the Guy Jim talks to an underground, drugged den. A
popular misconception hod that River Phoenix was said to play
the lead before his tragic death. This is entirely inaccurate.
River was a big fan of the book, and it's
always said he wanted to make a film version. With

(49:34):
various stages of readiness, he was trying to get ready.
He always was the front runner. However, prior to his death,
he had declined the road due combination of feeling he
was too old playing fifteen year old and was trying
to broaden his range for more adult roles. Jim, he
would have he really lived it, He really lived. Would
y'all be rapping about? Yeah? Jim Carroll was aware.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
Sometimes you get stuck in it.

Speaker 1 (50:00):
Look at Tupac Niggas mess Bishop never left right Lear.
He didn't know who Leo was at first, Jim Carroll.
When they first told him he was it was gonna
be Leo, I didn't know who he was. Carrol's told
Los Angeles Times if they said, did you know the
kid from Growing Pains in nineteen eighty five, I would
have known because I first saw the kid. I said,

(50:20):
that kid has a lot of presents. I said, that
kid is very pretty. He's gonna do well.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
Whoa Jesus Michael, Michael and Poory.

Speaker 1 (50:30):
I don't know what period you know that guy, he's
the Bobby Yeah, Well was from Sopranos. Oh yeahah yah,
Christopher Well, he was twenty nine years old, nigga playing
a fourteen year old.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
Not even that it was twenty nine. Yeah, God damn
how old is he now?

Speaker 4 (50:47):
Man?

Speaker 1 (50:47):
He gotta be like sixty sixty yeah, thirty years or so.
He's fifty nine. But you know, you know The Unbreakable
Kimmy Smith, it's on Netflix?

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, so that clip.

arrives when the bike fucking Kimmy, she's thirty in that
motherfucking or she's not thirty, but he's like one of
what's two thousand and nine verse twenty twenty four, I
don't know, fifteen years, bro, she's fucking like yeah, she
was like fucking twenty eight or some shit in that
in that bike rod. Yeah, I was like, what the fuck? Crazy?

Speaker 6 (51:22):
Bro?

Speaker 4 (51:24):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (51:25):
He had to prepare for the role. Leo hung out
with Green Rich Village and went to a poetry with
Jim Carroll. After being nominated for an Oscar Running on
Empty nineteen ninet eighty eight, MTV acts River Feedings that
he wanted to do next. He responded by pulling out
a beat up paperback of The Basketball Diaries and stated,
I want to play Jim Carroll. Later in the Los

(51:46):
Angeles Times, he played River Feedings. May have wanted it
too much, and Leo was a fan of Phoenix. Mark
Warburg later took the road. Originally offered two Wheo in
Boogie Knights in nineteen ninety seven, who turned it down
so he can go work on the Titanic instead. Yep.
