    Your opinions are overshadowed by your fandom, your opinion on this really dont matter if I asked you about 50 movie maybe

    I'm not a person blinded by fandom.

    If this was true then I would think Eminem had the best rap album of every year... or I wouldn't be going around bashing Revival to high heavens.

    Nah it's not.

    Because it invalidates what you're saying. You're saying I would think anything Eminem did was the best version of it, when we have a clear example where that's not true.

    I'm a fan of Rap, not just a fan of Eminem. My name is EminemBase because that's the name of my website, which I created as a kid, to teach myself web design.

    Doesn't mean I don't look critically at what he does or not appreciate all great rap / artists.

    No I'm not saying you think Eminem's always going to do the best s---, but the fact you're a huge Eminem fan you obviously gonna favor him over the NWA film when both are critically praised the same. All I'm saying is SOC, Hustle and Flow, and GRODT are all better rap movies. If you like 8 mile more thats fine but its not better

    Nah that's not true though.

    Because I'm a fan of movies too, I'm not going to just say a movie with Eminem or about Eminem is better just because it has Eminem in it lol, I'm not a teenage girl. I can't do that to myself, I respect movies too much.

    And I'm just saying it's a great movie. Whether it's the greatest rap movie ever... I'm not saying that. But I'm just saying as a movie... it's very good - but gtfo with saying Get Rich is better lol. That movie is a---.

    You’ve probably never seen his posts before, just saying. He’s not some rediculous Stan.

    Yeah I never said it was the best rap movie though.

    I just said it's a great movie, which I stand by.

    I can give you reasons why i find GRODT to be worse though:

    - it's a---
    - 50 can't act
    - the dialogue is worse
    - the story is not executed as well
    - it's cheesier and less believable
    - characters are paper thin in comparison

    Get Rich is a majorly forgettable and pretty bad movie. They just tried to duplicate the Eminem template with him but didn't put as much care and effort into doing it right.

    So do you agree or disagree with the statement that its not the greatest rap movie of all time. The story of every movie I mentioned is better than 8 mile, dialogue might be worse for grodt idk I aint seen that movie in 10 years.

    I wouldn't say it's the best rap movie because I haven't seen enough other rap movies.

    I just say it's a great movie. Outside of the 'rap movie' category, just for what it is.

    And yeah 50's story is obviously more compelling, which is why it's so shocking they messed it up so much. The story can be better but it's all about execution. The movie is bad because of execution, forget Eminem vs. 50 Cent.

    Yeah but that is because I think 8 mile album is great (with a few classic songs) and compton is overal amazing. Nothing against 8mile OST
