12689140, Ice Cube Debuts Straight Outta Compton Trailer On Tour (SWIPE)
Posted by murph71, Sat Jan-03-15 11:01 AM

I'm going to leave my inner snob at the door and admit that this looks pretty entertaining...The kid playing Eazy is quite believable. And Paul Giamatti as Jerry Heller looks like perfect casting...

I'll def. give it a chance...

They are in it from all reports. But u know the headliners are going to get the shine in the trailer....
12689304, no love for Arabian Prince or D.O.C.?

Considering that Arabian Prince was an official member of NWA and The D.O.C. was on Straight Outta Compton, had his album drop immediately after, and wrote a great deal of Niggaz4Life, you would figure these two would have at least a little shine.

definitely needed to have their story told on the big screen

The trailer looks good - Cube said they were going to address a lot of the social conditions that were taking place at that time that influenced NWA's music...

Looking forward to it

12689326, Looks good I can't tell from the footage tho

if its raw looking or too shiny looking like the Biggie movie. I just feel that movie should look more like a 90's film with washed colours than bright and saturated. But so far it looks promising.

12689550, Being a huge West Coast fan, I will def see this.

I just fear it being as forced, false and corny as Notorious. I don't think Dre and Cube would let that happen like Diddy did though.
12689599, thanks for the link
