Ice Cube says Warner Bros. won’t give him the rights to the “Friday� film franchise, and he’s not buying them:

"fu*k no. They need to give it to me, and they’re going to make money. I’m not about to pay for my own stuff, that’s stupid."https://t.co/ARWAjRkgxM

Wonder what type of contract he signed

NAKHI ALLAH said Wonder what type of contract he signed

He got fleeced originally.

Clearly.

This sound like the final nail and now we can all stop fantasizing about ANOTHER Friday movie. Earlier on it woulda been dope, but hella time done passed, a handful of OG characters are no longer here unfortunately; now it’s time to get creative with some new ideas. Let’s get it, Cube.


*side note: I think it would be dope if writers reached out to fans for some script ideas. I know there’s so much untapped potential out there for blockbuster hits. All genres too: Comedy, Sci-fi, Psych-Thrillers..etc. I’ve been working on a horror script myself just cuz I haven’t been too pleased with what’s been dropping as of late. Almost ready to pitch this MF soon too..

theFREAK said He got fleeced originally. Clearly.

I don't know how accurate the Wikipedia information is, but they first floated the idea of self-financing the movie. Cube and Pooh should have probably done the film themselves and released it directly to PPV.

The Jews strike again

It's too late. Too old. People dead. Just nah.

If a major studio is gonna finance your sh*t of course they're keeping the IP.
It was Cubes first film project... no newbie is getting to keep the rights to the IP. There was no fleecing involved. Pretty standard actually.

Some of the actors felt like they got fu*ked over by Cube, all these years later, Cube feels like he getting fu*ked over by Warner. Equivalent exchange.

Cube blackballed in Hollywood

Then why doesn't he just go to court if he got a case?

He doesn't. He said they should, "do the right thing" and give it back lol

As they shouldn't.

CarlozRossi said He doesn't. He said they should, "do the right thing" and give it back lol

n*gga must of went to the Bryan Birdman Williams school of business.

BLE said Cube blackballed in Hollywood

Man Ice Cube is just trying to remove any positivity surrounding his name.

It's like every week he in the news with a complaint about this company or that company trying to garner fan sympathy on his path to being a mogul.

I'm not a writer but I've always thought a movie centered around the characters that Big created would be dope. Have Arizona Ron as the main character.

2 Techs - Lawerence Boyd
Arizona Ron -Ronald Ashton
Dark Skin Jermaine - Jermaine Perkins
Alberta - Alberta Grier
C-Rock-Curtis Rockport
Sing - Alvin Richardson nicknamed for his talent to sing
Pops from the barbershop
Drew Stokely pretty girl from round the way that gets k*lled by Shantaya Hendricks (Taya) over a bf
I know he got more but this just a start


Opening scene starts with Detectives standing round in the office discussing a major heist that went down 2 weeks ago. They get word that they have a key witness. That witness is Sing. They all look at each other stunned as they havent had a clue til now. Detective began interviewing Sing about a heist. Sing lays out the backstories to the characters starting with Arizona Ron. As hes describing Ron his voice fades and scene changes into a scene of Ron in a black Yukon with Arizona plates. Isley brothers play in the background. Camera pans to arms of driver in the car. Driver is wearing a wife beater. You see 3 bullet wounds on his arms with "nothing to lose" tatted around each wound.

I aint got nothing else after that

Yeah, he should have did a reunion show years ago even if Tucker was still tripping about money.

I wish he'd move on but he's shown he's stuborn

I wish I knew more about Hollywood.

Read your contract don’t get fu*ked in the a*s with no Vaseline.

Cube is full of sh*t

What happened to Cube Vision?

Why not just make a Netflix Exclusive there’s plenty of other routes you can go especially now a days with digital media

Not sure why y'all keep circling the same stories on BX every few days.... This has been talked about extensively on here in the past week...

"pay for my own stuff"

Uh... it's not yours though.

Cube need to let Friday go


Most of the OGs are dead , everyone has moved on
Let's be honest sh*t wouid suck anyways

That’s on Cube…maybe it’s a play to speak out in the public to get a better deal ….

If not just create something new…sequels after 20
Years gonna suck most likely

Cube is confused. It ain't his movie.
