Who'd like to see Prince make another movie?

I would.
In the 1980s, you could argue that Prince's movies were a bit "hit & miss" because his ambition and ideas weren't always matched with good judgement. I think that's changed.
Now, Prince knows himself more - and probably makes better decisions.

I doubt he WOULD make a movie now - partially because he's so independent now. I don't really see him working with a team the way it would take, to make a movie.

BUT - if he did make a movie now, what kind of movie do you see working?

Taking from some his recent material, here are some of my ideas:
1) Like the Chocolate Box video - Prince as a kind of "overseer" of some otherworld. His messages are only truly understood by 2 characters - Upload and Download.
2) From Te Amo Corazon - a small cast, with Prince as a complex lover in an intimate setting, a passionate romance. With Salma Hayek?
3) From Ol' Skool Company - Prince leads a kind of retro scene, with all the real connections and vibes that are missing nowadays. Later we find out that they've all left the earth, that this is the future, and that the earth has basically self-destructed. And yes, the ship DOES have a Paisley Park. Perhaps they are the Rainbow Children. The time-shift theme has to involve Prince in a CGI-duet with Hendrix! (Okay, not - but the rest of the idea stands.)

So - should Prince make a movie? What kind?

How about Prince playing God and holding Planet Earth in the palm of his hand?

The soundtrack would be widely criticized.

How about warts and all behind the scenes movie in the same vein as In bed with Madonna or Metallica's Some kind of Monster.

If he tours this summer it would be a perfect opportunity to do this kind of documentary.

Matrix, the sequel ...he looks very cool in black & mystery tech

Some very unexpected and totally atypical role in a Quentin Tarantino movie would be, in my opinion , the only way for him to make a comeback into the movie world.Something where he doesn´t take himself too seriously yet nothing too lighthearted. Regardless of his previous film efforts, I think he still has some great roles inside him, and he definitely has the right amount of discipline to show the skeptics that he can act if he´s really into it.
I find stuff like MovieStar or that Italian restaurant skit on Exodus hilarious and I think he could easily play something in that vein, or maybe something really unexpected and obscure, a role where he´s not afraid of looking ugly or silly.

Men in Black 3 has just been anounced If Michael Jackson can have a cameo in the second, how about Prince this time around?

I wonder what the planned 3121 movie would have been like...

A documentry is a great idea

I wouldn't mind Prince as a voice in an animated movie. Thats about it unless its a concert film with behind the scenes stuff.

That would b so cool but it has 2 b something that fits him!

I wouldn't want to see another Prince movie

I think the 80's was the right time for the ones he did
But I wouldn't mind him being a part of a movie,
Anyone who saw Collatoral remember the scene where they went to a Jazz club and the lead trumpet player(a real life jazz musician) was going to be killed by (Tom Cruise)

Something like that where Prince and the band are playing an aftershow or impromptu and the 'stars' of the movie walk into a show and we are blown away with Prince and band on the stage, to hype it more he should have Sheila Wendy & Lisa Rhonda or Brown Renato or Dr Fink Eric & Maceo, just to get the eyes of the audience moving it would really spark something

I would too.
Whatever theme he feels like would make me happy.

um... no I wouldn't that era is done , and people ( or so called fans) will do is point out his age.


The latest movie is Crimson and Clover !pause the screen when he says I think I love you... he just ooozes sexiness

Yes by all means another anything from this man would b amazing...he's still and will always b relevant...and OMG he does just ooze sexiness and talent...please disregard the haters Prince...do it 4 those of us that adore U...and that is the majority of us...the haters r just louder and nasty...don't let them win...we r dimes...they're just pennies baby

I don't wanna see him do anything that's gonna feed the Haters, and another movie will definetly do that.

Jesus Christ, no.

Make it stop

I don't want to see him MAKE another movie, but if someone gave him a minor roll IN a movie, that had a good director, then why not?

IMHO i would prefer him 2 do either a cameo role or any role in a movie that would be suitable for him

London 2007 DVD - Main Shows & Aftershows - Backstage stuff

I think "The Rainbow Children," could be a very cool movie.

Mods, do what's right

Oh dear lawd, life is strange.

vivid is my new boo!

I would like to see a "Truth or dare" kinda of movie. Concert footage and behind the curtain type stuff. I want to see Prince in his private life, in the studio and working with others. That is what i'd pay for.

I'd like to see him in a small role in a movie that is not a Prince movie, where he is not playing a Prince like character. Something where every time he's on camera he steals the scene, but not where he has to carry the whole movie...

nevermind

Purple Rain II
It's 'Now' and he's a dad to a Girl
She is in American Idol and trying to make it BIG in the music industry.
Prince & Appleonia are Divorced and the "Kid" lives with Prince
They don't get along & they don't talk much
To cut a long story short he gives her a demo at first she's not interested but after her dad falls off his bike & seriously injures himself she uses it and dedicates a song to her father.... every one loves it and she wins!
I've got the whole story line figured out!
I'm sure there's a Protege out there that can pull this off!
