Long term I’d prefer Papali’i over TJ

Maybe next year?

Pick Dalton so they keep him on the damn field

Dolemite is my name.

Eddie Murphy at his best. Wesley Snipes was excellent as a pompous asshole which isn't a stretch.

The supporting cast was average. Very good actors but not utilised as well as they should have been. Bob Odenkirk, Craig Robinson & Keegan-Michael Key are great talents underused in this movie. Although the latter was clearly playing it straight for a change.

But otherwise this was loads of fun, especially if you are familiar with the source material.

I don't know if Murphy deserves an Oscar nod, like some have suggested, because he is really only playing a character we have seen in many other movies he's made.

This was way better than I was expecting. I know nothing about the actual guy, so at the end I was really feeling it for the premiere, I did not expect the taglines at the end at all.

Had me giving a shit about him. I dunno if we've seen Eddie do desperation like this, all the flashy comic stuff sure but this was a good performance.

@Bones Settle down mate anything's better than him

We could play without a fullback and be ahead of where we were with Collins on the field.

Was Kurt Eklund on the radar?

He was pretty good for BOP after a very serious injury. I was hoping he made it

Yeah, I'm happy he's back just surprised didn't know he was being looked at. Hope he comes back to Auckland too.
