Which I am VERY greatful for! If we had Smith as Neo, it means we'd have had to deal with Val Kilmer as Morpheus. I forget who Trinity was originally cast as for that group, but they would have made a very unholy trio.

Cool as Ice:cool:

:D



From IMDB


This "film" is so bad that the director, David Kellogg, couldn't get another job for 8 years afterwards. One wonders why he took the job in the first place ($$). Directing Vanilla Ice in a movie is surely equivalent to selling your soul to the Devil.

lolol

Ice Cube brings a unique ghetto-rugged lazy-unmiselyness to the screen in every film.....fantastic actor.

Will Smith is good, but his films are too heroic.....too predictable....


Cube's films are very private affairs--bejamins was jsut about diamonds,,not about saving the world--= VERY entertaining.


'All about the benjamins' and the first 2 friday movies were hilarious...

I give it up for Mark Walberg. To that one guy that though DMX was a good actor, holy crap, in Cradle to the Grave, his lines are so retarded. He just sucks overall and he tries to hard.

Like this one line in Cradle to the Grave, the part when he's about to go to that guy to see how much the black diamonds were worth, well they're not really diamonds, but before he went, Drag-On said something like "hold on, I'll come with you. Then DMX saids something like "I got this" and this line really drove me nuts, "If I need you, I'll call you." Duhh!!!!!!
