8 Mile VS Krush Groove

Postby lil_bayly » Oct 9th, '09, 02:23

I read it a long time ago in The Source Mag that 8 Mile was a basic rip-off of Krush Groove and that Eminem only got the Academy nod because he is white and raping the game blah blah blah, i'm just wondering if anyone else has seen this movie and can share their thoughts on the diffs and same shit they found relevent, here's a link for wat Krush Groove is about and the trailer

Storyline - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krush_Groove

Trailer - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lI32v3ny69Y

Remember this movie came out in 1985, so u need to expand ur mind a bit to understand wat i mean


Cheers :smoking:

It may be similar, but the same can be said for alot of movies. The Source isn't a reliable source though, when it comes to Eminem's legitimacy. (No pun intended)

No dude i wasnt saying "cause the source said it, it must be for real" i was asking if anyone noticed similarities in the 2 movies, but enough to say that 8 Mile was a bite!! Im sure there are tonz of movies that are kinda the same, and speaking on that bro, name a few i cant think of any :y: :y:

it's bound to be similar to other stories because it's a cliche. doesn't mean the film is not good.

Well, I don't care really what you're like on the inside and I just really want you to come to bed with me. Would you do that if you could? Even if you were just average on the outside (but not fat) I could like you if you sounded smart.
