Em turned down role in new movie

[SliK]

But he wasn't really good.

That's like getting 51% on an exam and going "Oh but I didn't study so I did really well". 51% isn't good by any definition, neither is Em's acting.

Really? I thought he was fantastic!

He wasn't.

Watch a film like The Machinist and tell me Eminem is a "fantastic" actor, lol.

acting isn't his forte, music is, so obviously he isn't going to be fantastic. he did good for his first major film role.

Em didn't fail though. (Wait, is the grading scale different in Australia?)

50 Cent is a terrible actor.

Agreed.

Bad acting is one of the things that pisses me off most, I can't sit through a film if the acting is poor.

For someone who had never acted before, I thought he did quite a good job. You should've seen the way I acted in my little stand-up my group did in high school.

Nah 51% is a pass. Still a shitty mark though.

I dont wanna see Eminem in movies. 8 mile was enough. He isnt an actor though, basically he was playing himself in 8 mile, so it looks pretty good, but i dont think he will do good in other roles. Just check his episode in "The Wash". it was funny no doubt, but also it was too overplayed. Finally, the guy has one face expression all the time, how the fuck can he be an actor?

[HeySamantha]

I think if he were to do any sort of movie, it should be a horror.

[Whitefox]

True that, he could play the voiceless serial killer.

[Snakebeast]

He was great in the "Throw it Away" video. Dat evil mastermind smirk

[LIL_B]

He fucking sucks. You guys should name some fantastic performances. I'd like to know.

Lol people thinking it's actually easy to "play yourself" when acting.

But it's not harder then playing some complete different character.

[Elision]

ugh

What?

To play yourself is easier then to play specific character.

Em. He'll never be a lead in another movie again if this is what he wants. Lmao.

I didn't know The Fighter was written with Em in mind, cool.

Funny, when I logged on I expected to see something new. Nice.
