I'm like damn mfs, can yall stop recycling the same tired ass actors. If i see Terry Crews and Mike Epps in one more mf Cube movie i'm gonna lose my damn mind, and while we are at it, can we come up with some less predictable plots. I'm sick of seeing some bootlegged preacher, some goon terorizing the neighborhood, some broken woman whos husband aint ? , and it's all centered around a family reunion or a bbq etc.


Can we get a Matrix, Bourne Identity,etc type movie.If they can make District 9 for under 40 mil then there is no excuse why we can't. Maybe we need some better script writers and casting directors.

    I see the previews on tv, but i can tell you what all these movies are gonna be about without seeing them, they are so predictable.

    most Tyler Perry movies have the actors sign on for 2 of his movies.

    Ice Cube...i'm guessin he's just comfortable wit them or he know they wont tell him No.

    F Gary Gray directed Friday and that's his only decent movie, Cube produced it. His movies are cliche as ? , predictable commedies.

    Friday After Next is funny as ? ? . Stop expecting some sort of plot twisting mindfuck movie. Its a series based on weed smoking.

    Anybody who watches a Tyler Perry movie is a perennial loss taker. And TP usually signs his actors to multi movie contracts. I think Cube does it 'cause he's used to working with them.
