Oh man, they'll give anyone a movie deal.
And speaking of Football Movies, I hear they're about to ruin one of my favorites by adding a sequel. The Program 2: Whatever it Takes, begins production in summer 2008.

if they make a program 2 that will be so sick! it's arguablly the best football movie of all time!

I gotta agree with you with one caveat, I think it is the best College Football Movie of all time. In terms of best Football Movie of all time, I gotta give that to Any Given Sunday, but trust me, The Program does run a mighty close 2nd.

i agree that Any Given Sunday is my favorite football movie... that was sick

now how kewl is this!!!

well lil wayne is like 5'6 so it must be a highschool B-ball team! lol

My friend is working on the set of this film. He said he's been hanging out with wayne's bodyguards and Chris Paul actually stopped by the set yesterday and he was chilling with him the entire time. I'm heading down to visit him on the set in NO in about 2 weeks. Time to go work on my freestyle.

If anyone here on YB knows tcbailey24 personally, would you please go to his house and check on him? This post has 'Lil Wayne' in the title and has been up for 9 hours now and he hasn't commented yet. I'm starting to get worried. Thanks.

Seriously!
Maybe TC has a part in the movie?

Yeah, TC deserves a cameo on that movie. That would be way too solid.

hell yeah cuz

here TC is....Lil Wayne in this movie gonna be ill

Order has now been restored to the Barkosphere.

yes it has

you heard the "Yung Mulah Vol.1" mixtape

of course....Chalk It Out aka Crank toss it up doe is amazing with Brisco.......Pop Bottles, D@mn I'm Cold, and Hustle is real good too

WOW I'm looking forward to this coming out...the background story from the movie is a great idea. Hopefully they can pull it off. No matter the reviews I'ma check out it.

are you sure lil wayne is going to star in this movie or have a cameo or a role?

on a sidenote, lil wayne will have a role in "the fast and the furious 4"

yeah, I heard that he was gonna be in the Fast and Furious 4 as well...as a Wayne fan, definitely gotta check both out

Ima big Wayne fan, but he got the worst lookin jump shot there is...check it out at :27




l.m.a.o

ya digg

word i remember seein that and i was like damn his J is ugly.....and he was in another movie too...caddy shack i think?

He was in the golf movie "Who's Your Caddy"

this better not delay the Carter III again!!!!

hopefully not...June 10th, ya digg..on my calendar

Is this really going to be the cover art?

Yes, that's the cover, unless they change it.

I like this cover better


Tha Carter III may already have the record for most rumored covers/tracklists. I've also seen this one floating around lately:

that one is pretty good too

Haven't you heard the leaked tracks. So, it might be pushed back again.

it was supposed to be may 17th

Lil Wayne is definitely in the movie. My boy told me that they actually increased his role. Also, Chris Paul is going to have a cameo in the movie.
