Respect movie trailer out now

https://twitter.com/respe...92000?s=21

I'm sure it will be a good movie and JHud will get lots of award nominations. But I can't get excited about it because I'm not a JHud fan. She doesn't sing she yells. When she sings Purple Rain I just cringe.

There's a reason this movie is dropping in December. They want JHud to be considered for awards season.

N maybe sum props 4 Marlon 2? I've always appreciated him as an actor, comedic n otherwise. Agree she do be yelling tho. Speaking of Purple Rain, I don't mind the title n all but the trailer could've had at least 1 of her other classic songs up there, sayin smile n same 2 above above post.

Aretha wanted Halle Berry to star in this movie eek I think we can all agree that Jennifer Hudson is a much better choice

Yup- looks like JHud may have another Oscar coming her way. This looks like it'll be good.

Why do I get the feeling this movie is less about Aretha and more about JHud? Aretha was famous for her voice. Isn't that the voice we want to hear?

Yes! Jennifer was born for this role! No other contemporary singer comes even remotely close to Aretha's voice and passion like Jennifer.

I have to tell you, I feel the exact same way. Everything you said where JHud is concerned, is how I feel about her too.

I don't know if that's possible.."yelling pretty" lol Yelling to me is a loud noise that hurts my ears to hear, and nothing about that is "pretty" to me. lol

There are some that look (and sound) like they are about to burst a vein they're forcing it so hard but there are a few who just have a natural powerful projection. Jennifer has the latter, I'll agree she can go loud, but it doesn't sounds strained and it remains melodic.

^^That's true @onlyforaminute, Jennifer does have a natural powerful projection voice, nothing forced there, much like Whitney Houston, whose voice I loved, that was powerful without having to force it at all, especially during her best years.
