I wish if they can get Smokey back in somehow, make him the preacher. That way Chris Tucker doesn’t have to smoke or curse, and still get a great performance out of him. AND pay some homage to Bernie from the first movie

Everything happens for a reason. Im glad Chris Tucker left and did his thing. It opened the door for Mike Epps. We got All About the Benjamins, How High, and even movies like Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins and Roll Bounce. He mightve never got them calls if it wasnt for Next Friday

Which is why I always say if they sign that contract and make sure they got royalties that's where the real money came from when it started off ice cube said it himself they didn't have enough money for production because they didn't think the movie was even going to do as good as it did are be as big as it is now the only real one who said something about the money was Miss Parker and I think pops from the show

@AndsometimesYYYYouTube
Because it was a low budget financed movie! You mainly take roles like that for the exposure, opportunities & hopes that the project becomes successful! Mfs act like they don't understand how projects & budgets work or what they agreed to be paid before accepting a role! You can have a $1,000,000 budget to make an entire movie, which doesn't leave you with shit to pay everybody crazy amounts of money! On top of that, you don't even know if the movie will be successful or if the money invested will ever be made back until after it's released! Just because a movie becomes successful doesn't mean the money was there to pay everybody more when it was being made, & it dont automatically entitle everybody to some huge payout beyond what they're contractually owed! That's not even accounting for the residuals some actors are entitled to & may continue receiving long after the movie's release! If that same movie had flopped & only made $100K, those actors still would've gotten what they agreed to be paid, while Cube & the company he worked with would've been left taking the financial hit
