BTW I never saw an IPhone in the movie......

There was no iPhone. And I remember someone saying Tupac was Milly rocking in the movie. Which didn't happen either.

Either someone in Hollywood is paying people to troll and bash the movie or the Pac stans are just wilding out because it didn't show their father writing 3 songs while taking a shit.

Word lol, the closest I can think of to the IPhone making an appearance is a ring tone which sounded like a modern one maybe once, but there were no fidget spinners, Iphones, or other modern bullshit people mentioned here.

I admit to being a die hard 2pac fan myself, but I came in there with realistic expectations. Some of these niggas here wanted Pac to just walk through the movie screen like Jesus Christ reincarnated or something. At the end of the day, it's a movie and I can tell the director wanted to pack as much stuff into the movie as possible. An impossible task but he tried his best.
 
Nah b. That shit wasn't no movie just re-enactments. No back stories or private conversations that we were not already privy to. No introspection inside the mind of Pac. No background on showing him and biggie as friends. It was decent I'd say 6/10 and that's being generous as me as a fan of his music.

I'm a little confused at when you said there was no introspection in his mind? Didn't the movie show a lot of what 2pac thought about life, especially when it comes to some of his contradictions?

And his friendship with Biggie took up a good size of the movie, they were shown hanging at parties and even on a movie set. Even showed how Biggie tried to visit Pac in the hospital. I do agree I wish they could have gone into more detail when it comes to those things.

So you do agree? I'm not about to pour syrup on shit and call it pancakes. The interview in jail that took up half the movie flashing back? That was self explanation. Whoever was seriously in charge of this shit could not have been a true Pac supporter. How you gonna have Pac talking about finishing up his obligations at death-row but then suge punks him into taking death-row east and staying? Puffy made sure his character was non existant. The outlawz managed to play themselves 20 years after the fact? It was a synopsis, this happened then that happened then this happened. No real insight as far as making hit em up, probably the most controversial song of Pac's career. I can go on but like I said its ok, its watchable.

Fun fact: Pac wasn't even going to be running Death Row East. Eric B and another cat was going to be running everything.

Fact. Making the movie even farther from the truth

The Outlawz cosigned this movie, which to me is a big thing, but the whole Deathrow East thing is something Pac seemed to be enthusiastic about. Pac was complex, yeah he did talk about leaving Death Row after his 3 albums was up but he still had some loyalty to Suge and his crew. Look at how Pac acted in Vegas, he was in deep with Deathrow. Idi Amin and the others still look KINDA young, so them playing themselves didn't bother me too much.

I do feel what you're saying about Hit Em Up, I definitely wish they got into more background on that. But maybe the director assumed most of us knew the whole story about why the beef began, we all pretty much know why 2pac had beef with Biggie already.

Really? Damn I didn't even know that. I'm sure 2pac would have had a lot of input and some level of control though. He was still a big star and big stars always have influence on projects like that. It was 2pac's idea after all.
 
Haven't seen it yet but Pac didn't have the business acumen to run Death Row East.

In fact, Suge didn't have the business acumen to run Death Row period.

Man the outlawz cosigned that check. Straight up. I ain't mad at em tho. Get ya money but they was lil niggas at the time and I know its a lot of conversations held that they wasn't around for especially between Pac and suge. I feel like suge is the only person that could honestly say what Pac was like on death row from a behind the scenes standpoint and right now that's impossible.

Probably accurate. As much as I love 2pac, he died with supposedly 2 grand in his bank account. We all know how Death Row ended up.

Maybe lol, what did you think of Suge's portrayal in the movie? I thought that was one of the better parts of the film IMO.

I thought he was convincing as a bully which he may have been according to most people close to that situation, but suge also was a likeable guy which didn't make the movie. Also Pac and suge was homies, to the point where some of the other artist started to feel pushed to the side because of suge's admiration for Pac. Suge liked that firey side of Pac and they talked about moving these distributors out the game on some total takeover shit.

I agree, except I did find Suge to be likable, at least in the beginning. When Pac was stuck in jail, unable to make bail, Suge came in like a knight in shining armor, promising I think 3 million and a house? Either way, I did like that part about Suge, I found him likable from the perspective of him doing what he could for Pac and helping him with his financial problems. Pac was maybe a legend already by the time he was in Rikers, I'm still shocked no one except Suge was willing to bail him out. At least that's what the movie shows.

No I mean in real life suge is likeable but not like that in the film. U see pieces like when he told dude don't let him steal it again about the chain. But suge was a jokester, just sometimes a joke would turn serious.

Also Pac and suge was homies, to the point where some of the other artist started to feel pushed to the side because of suge's admiration for Pac. Suge liked that firey side of Pac and they talked about moving these distributors out the game on some total takeover shit.

I agree, except I did find Suge to be likable, at least in the beginning. When Pac was stuck in jail, unable to make bail, Suge came in like a knight in shining armor, promising I think 3 million and a house? Either way, I did like that part about Suge, I found him likable from the perspective of him doing what he could for Pac and helping him with his financial problems. Pac was maybe a legend already by the time he was in Rikers, I'm still shocked no one except Suge was willing to bail him out. At least that's what the movie shows.

No I mean in real life suge is likeable but not like that in the film

Oh aight, yeah Suge probably is very likable in real life, he had a big and loyal crew around him for a long time. But just like in Straight Outta Compton, Suge is the default bad guy in the movie.

Nah b. That shit wasn't no movie just re-enactments. No back stories or private conversations that we were not already privy to. No introspection inside the mind of Pac. No background on showing him and biggie as friends. It was decent I'd say 6/10 and that's being generous as me as a fan of his music.

I'm a little confused at when you said there was no introspection in his mind? Didn't the movie show a lot of what 2pac thought about life, especially when it comes to some of his contradictions?

And his friendship with Biggie took up a good size of the movie, they were shown hanging at parties and even on a movie set. Even showed how Biggie tried to visit Pac in the hospital. I do agree I wish they could have gone into more detail when it comes to those things.

So you do agree? I'm not about to pour syrup on shit and call it pancakes. The interview in jail that took up half the movie flashing back? That was self explanation. Whoever was seriously in charge of this shit could not have been a true Pac supporter. How you gonna have Pac talking about finishing up his obligations at death-row but then suge punks him into taking death-row east and staying? Puffy made sure his character was non existant. The outlawz managed to play themselves 20 years after the fact? It was a synopsis, this happened then that happened then this happened. No real insight as far as making hit em up, probably the most controversial song of Pac's career. I can go on but like I said its ok, its watchable.

The Outlawz cosigned this movie, which to me is a big thing, but the whole Deathrow East thing is something Pac seemed to be enthusiastic about. Pac was complex, yeah he did talk about leaving Death Row after his 3 albums was up but he still had some loyalty to Suge and his crew. Look at how Pac acted in Vegas, he was in deep with Deathrow. Idi Amin and the others still look KINDA young, so them playing themselves didn't bother me too much.

I do feel what you're saying about Hit Em Up, I definitely wish they got into more background on that. But maybe the director assumed most of us knew the whole story about why the beef began, we all pretty much know why 2pac had beef with Biggie already.

Man the outlawz cosigned that check. Straight up. I ain't mad at em tho. Get ya money but they was lil niggas at the time and I know its a lot of conversations held that they wasn't around for especially between Pac and suge. I feel like suge is the only person that could honestly say what Pac was like on death row from a behind the scenes standpoint and right now that's impossible.

@ the bolded. Nobody wanted to bail him out because of all his legal troubles. He was always getting arrested or going to court for one reason or another. Who needs the headache?

And when its all said and done, Suge didn't get his money's worth. Pac was on Death Row for about 6 months before he died and Suge went to jail. By the time he got out of jail Death Row was over. From what I understand Suge had to sell Death Row to pay for his personal legal problems.

BTW I never saw an IPhone in the movie......

There was no iPhone. And I remember someone saying Tupac was Milly rocking in the movie. Which didn't happen either.

Either someone in Hollywood is paying people to troll and bash the movie or the Pac stans are just wilding out because it didn't show their father writing 3 songs while taking a shit.

nah, people was talking about the down time in b/t scenes while filming when he was doing the milly rock

nobody claimed he actually did in the movie

correction...it was at the premiere

Yeah I get what you're saying, it's tragic Pac got into a lot of those situations back in the day. I'm sure some of those situations weren't his fault, but I'm sure some of them were. Ironically, Pac would have probably been arrested again after the Vegas incident, I'm still grateful for the music he dropped from Death Row though. In all likelihood he would have only gotten better and likely save Death Row in the process, as Makaveli showed he wasn't slowing down. Damn shame.
