If Prince was offered or had the opportunity to act in a movie. Act and possibly perform music (NO DIRECTING AT ALL) what would you suggest or consider an ideal role? Again before this topic is bombarded with negative comments, this would be him as an actor. Either a major role or smaller role (NO DIRECTING!!!!).

since prince is prince and kinda bad at acting i'd say the best
role for him to play would be himself.

a cameo in something would be funny or cool, depending on what
kind of project it would be.

like salma hayek (sp) directing te amo corazon, i could see her
have prince do a cameo if she directed a movie.




and anyway prince was already in fargo

this is one of those threads where the thread title makes it seem like this is something that has been announced or occurred, when it's just a question.




and yes, i know it has question marks in it, but the hysterical nature of it makes it seem like someone read this in the newspaper and rushed here to announce it.

Yuo said it Raze....Missleading

i wanted to post a link to my bitch thread on this topic but i figured since
the title does indeed contain a few questionmarks i'd let it slip

Nope, that'll never happen!

regardless of the punctuation you still could have made a CONSTRUCTIVE comment.

the time it took for you to post this link you could have commented. Note the individual who started the link you posted didn't even post his link. Yet you did.

Ok then... not to be a pick monster but the topic could have been phrased as a question off the bat. Example: If Prince Were To Act Again

I made the correction - still again you could have commented on the topic. It is amazing no matter what comment, topic/subject - people here overlook the obvious and comment on the insignificant. Once sometime ago I commented on a commercial with Mayte and this light complexion of a man. I have never receved so many harsh comments stating I was racist against black people. Just amazing.

The title is still misleading, you're saying it like it is a fact!
but No, it ain't gonna happen!

whendovescry2000 said:

I offered constuctive criticism on the wording of the post as you requested of someone else and you still get pissy.

Ok then, no P should not act again... ever. Satisfied?

Ifsixwuz9 said:

No.

Raze said:

so fucking what?? if you READ it, it makes sense. why the agro' all the time???
why comment at all?? always someone moaning about post titles and how they are mis-leading. Just read the rest

He could play Fast Black in a remake of Street Smart.
No.

I'd like to see him in Prince and the Pauper...the slightly dark version. Only thing, playing yourself is the hardest thing to do. It would probably be best if he played an entirely different character. I have a feeling he would surprise everyone, if he had the right role.

he could wear a fat suit and be in nutty professor 4

Please no ....he has no acting skills

whendovescry2000 said:

I did. I tried to make this topic interesting by making it an extension of the debate on misleading thread titles, because god knows the topic at hand is not at all interesting to me.

bonedaddy said:

Thank you - the newspapers do this all the time...and no one but the Bitter Granny says anything.

Raze said:

Then why be here at all...

It'd be cool if he did some voiceover work IMO

wlcm2thdwn said:

Let's see...Prince to act again just a question...what is misleading now. Oh maybe I should have said...This is a simple question about Prince and acting - it is by no means an actual indication that Prince, (the person formally from Minneapolis, MN who records music and plays a variety of instruments - not to be confused with any other individual or animal that bears the same name) will be acting in the near future. It is a question asking if there were any ideas on said individual acting again?

Is that clearer for you?

That's what I mean he still has potential on screen. I alwayus though that a love story inwhich he played a supporting role - a musician popular on the local seen whose big career had come and gone and the main story of a man and woman the woman going back with or starting to date the character played by Prince. He could still display his musical skills.

FruitToAttractBears said:

Me too...for an animation. A musical.

whendovescry2000 said:

This is nice too.

jami0mckay said:

Or maybe a fat old lady suit and be in Big Momma's House 3

( oh, those fuckin' Wayan brothers ....where do they get their ideas?)

With regards to acting that is how people of color are perceived by you -
it is so sad.

whendovescry2000 said:

nope it was a joke, as the thread had degenerated into slinging insults i thought i'd make a joke, I was gonna use a picture from Shallow Hal but the Eddie Murphy one was funnier.
