Cadillac Records 2008

analog_tape

I was reading that Cadillac Records is due to release on December 5, 2008. I though that Matt Dillion was playing Leonard Chess. I was checking out www.imdb.com and it says that Adrien Brody ended up playing Leonard. Whatever i just wanna see this flick, anyone know if it's gonna go straight to DVD or play in small cinema's for a little while?

It's too soon to tell. Movies just don't randomly GO to DVD's right away, it all depends on whether or not it was a hit at the box office. I don't think that's something you can predict. (Of course, if it fails, it'll probably hit the DVD racks with the quickness.)

Yeah looking at the actor lineup (shudder) I'm sure it'll be in some theaters even with it's limited appeal.b,121b,121alsob,121b,121Mos Def as Chuck Berry...really?

I heard The Mighty Mos remade the Chuck Berry home movie to get into character.b,121That's dedication.

I can't see this movie being anything but a disaster to folks like us. This year's Dreamgirls but without the musical theatre pedigree.

So the "Beyonce as Etta James" thread wasn't enough?

People have made their mind up before seeing it...b, 21b, 21Jeffrey Wright in the cast is usually a good sign.
