[blakrok]

...whew! now that´s a much better question  :-D  for real though, ain´t seen no hip hop movies that have touched me...or maybe it´s cuz i still ain´t seen beat street.  :-(  now, about that pron... :-]

[RuSh]

haha just been into collectin all that old school flicks on dvd style wars one of the sickest documentaries also try and check wildstyle

[Original Syn]

mY TAPE OF STYLE WARS WORE OUT, NOW i´M SCREWED!

Juice, Friday, Slam, The latest Tupac Biography (i cant remember cos I just saw it at ma boys house "Life of an Outlaw" i think :-? )

[blakrok]

love em hip-hop doccies to bits (when they´re done by someone who knows bout tha cultire, that is) last one i saw wuz some tupac one, last year (from yamampela, nogal) but good lookin out though, i´ma be sure to keep an eye out for that good stuff, rush! ay dplanet! sup man!  :-]

ay apparently the cat who came up with the concept of beatstreet was jacked. They okeydoked him and then he saw the flick come out with other cats names credited. I remember reading that recently. The freestyle documentary is said to be on some ish. I enjoy docus more because i´m more a fan of the camcorder than the bg budget shit. The revenge of the robots was ill for me, and I also got this one called sad clown bad dub:the god loves ugy release parties from rhymesayers. Another one is the stonesthrowdvd, has all the madvillain flicks and a 40 track mix cd by peanut butter wolf which i havent yet watched waiting for the right company. Maybe when you guys come visit we´ll peep it. Another one that comes to mind s the freshest kids, history of breaking some dope footage on that shit. If MArtha Cooper had to make a flick she´ kill it too

The Innovators World!!! I hope I get this to you all for real. I´m feeling it. Doccie style as someone above said. Keep ya eyes open.
But otherwise outside of Africa; Hype´s Belly is still sick to me, the first FRIDAY is also cla**ic, Murder was the case (the one where Deathrow was at it´s height and they had all those videos in it) that was tight.
BUT NOTHING has been done better (or I just have´nt seen better) than STREETS IS WATCHING. That flick makes you appreciate REASONABLE DOUBT and IN MY LIFETIME VOL 1 on another level.

U know lots of this stuff like Streets is watching, and those docu-flicks........I never seen before anywhere.WHere u peeps get em?And lemme guess, they all copies right?Str8 off a bro that got it from a bro that jacked it from a sister´s cuzin that ripped it off the net? :-]

Anyways, Friday.........cla**ic.Btw, what is a hip hop film anyways?Whats the definition and whats the true meaning of it?Is it simply a movie with rap music in it, or actually a movie dealing with hip hop and its elements?I´d think the latter........but whats the view of the peeps?

[TNGlive]

As you said, the latter.

[MaddStone]

Well, if the latter, then movies like Friday and the like wont really constitute being hip hop films.So, I dont think I could answer the subject line question cause I have never seen a so-called hip hop film in its truer sense.

[TNGlive]

Whut?
You mean to say Smokey was´ nt hip hop?
That chic with the braids stressing the hell outta ICE CUBE was´nt hip hop?
DEEBO was´nt hip hop?
:-|
On a serious note; FRIDAY 1 was hip hop.
