94_AcCoRd_EX 11-07-2002 12:20 PM

I don't really plan to see it at all. Not a huge Eminem fan.

ebpda9 11-07-2002 12:41 PM

firstgeardude 11-07-2002 01:10 PM

TonitrusEN 11-07-2002 01:27 PM

Ill go see it, i respect Eminem alot

He raised up from a screwed up childhood, turned out to be what evryone hates, but i agree with him, and alot he says.. but thats just me...


People look down on him because of his opinions, but hey, we all have them

people are hypocrites (sp?) they are quit to blame others for their problems and never look at themselves for the answers to their problems. Half the time you are cause of the problem, and whats with people who is always complaining?

Dont you people get sick of people who start their sentances with "you know what i hate... " or "It really sucks that..." why is it people always want to complain, save your breath and call someone who gives a shit abuot your problems, or maybe you shoudl shut your mouth and just do something about it.

sorry for the rant

2000Pimpinex 11-07-2002 02:47 PM

I will definately see it tomorrow night after work. I am a huge fan of his and the movie is almost like his real life. It follows his rise to stardom almost to a T. I think its great that everyone told him he would be a nobody and he overcame all odds to fullfill his dream.

I don't like the fact that he puts down people who haven't done anything to him! Example: in the song "Without Me" he busts on Moby and says that nobody listens to techno. From my recollection, Mody never did or said anything negative about Eminem. It just irritates me! I know I may say things about people (although I try to watch myself), but I don't make it a public announcement.

maybe moby said something in private about eminem that you dont know about. I'm not saying the dude is without flaws but he is very forward with his ideas, and has always been singing about things in his life.

Addict 11-07-2002 03:53 PM

I'll be seeing it. Provided I can cash in enough pennies.:D

Heh. You're one of 'them'. The people who take everything literally. Its liek he says over & over, he uses his music to vent. I don't think he literally meant nobody listens to techno....

juvenile 11-07-2002 04:00 PM

Very sweet!
Let me know how the movie is! :yes:

Kyle 11-07-2002 04:41 PM

BIKER!!!
DO NOT TELL US HOW THE MOVIE IS!!!
I'm going to see it on saturday...and i don't want to have it spoiled...just say if it's good or bad...but don't go into details...please
EMINEM IS MY ****ING IDOL!

you need help

though i shall be leaving shortly to see it, if you dont want to konw about the movie dont come in here after reading this. I will say more then "it was good" or "it was bad" as if i was to be reading a review i would like to know more then that myself.

I will however not ruin the movie for people who have not seen it, then again its not like you can't find out what the movies about by reading up on his life. I will simply talk about acting, casting, directing.. the typical review stuff!

Kyle 11-07-2002 04:46 PM

you know i can't resist reading every thread on here...:rolleyes:
just don't ruin it...

DsBlu01CivEX 11-07-2002 05:41 PM

yah i want to see the movie...I think it looks like it'll be a good one...casting, directing, plot...everything. As for being a fan of Eminem...I can't say that I idolize him or anything like that or agree with everything that comes out of his mouth (even when he does interviews) BUT I can completely respect the fact that he will say what is on his mind whether it offends people or not. Not many people in this world will say exactly what is on their mind, he will and he's gettin paid mad cash for it. I say more power to him.

mt.biker 11-07-2002 09:42 PM

I must warn you the movie doesn't go as far into his life as you all might think but considering that it was well done. I believe it captured the feeling of being trailer park trash and wanting to get out and do something with your life.

The acting is nothing special, the people are all playing themselves and the directing isn''t anythign special. I did find it an interesting watch though and would recommend the movie to anyone who has ever listened to Eminem and wondered why he says the stuff he does. Before i saw 8 mile i wasn't truly sure why he said those things but after this movie I do. The movie also explains the title "8 mile" which most of you probably have no idea what it means.

out of 4 stars i would give it 3.

juvenile 11-07-2002 11:04 PM

I actually think I know what 8 mile means...read about it somewhere, but that's just me.
Oh well, cool, I'm gonna go see it with firstgeardude this weekend too! :yes:

mylittlecivic 11-07-2002 11:06 PM

i know what 8 mile means:pfft:

ebpda9 11-07-2002 11:13 PM

yup it does

Well Moby did trash eminem in an interview. Pretty hard also. Trashed his music and him. So eminem retaliated. As for the movie. I want to see it. I watched a little thing on the movie. They weren't showing clips. They were getting people who were coming out of this private screening and I didn't hear one bad thing about the movie. This one gurl was like "I don't even like eminem. I don't follow his life, and I don't really know who he is. But the movie was amazing."
So im going to see it tomorro

True, I loved the movie, but felt like it could have gone on for 1/2-1h more, like it didn't have an ending. But I still loved it!

The first day this came out (Friday) its my understanding that it was sold out instantly. The theater around was selling tickets so people could sit on the ground. *cough* fire hazard *cough*;)
