BlackVoices History Quest: Detroit
Sony Pictures Classics will release Sundance Festival favorite, 'The Wackness', on July 2nd, 2008. The cast includes Josh Peck, Sir Ben Kingsley, Method Man, Mary Kate Olsen, Olivia Thirlby, Famke Janssen, and Aaron Yoo.
It's the summer of 1994, and the streets of New York are pulsing with hip-hop and wafting with the sweet aroma of marijuana--but change is in the air. The newly-inaugurated mayor, Rudy Giuliani, is beginning to implement his anti-fun initiatives against "crimes" like noisy portable radios, graffiti and public drunkenness. Set against this backdrop, Luke Shapiro (Josh Peck) spends his last summer before college selling dope throughout New York City, trading it with his shrink (Ben Kingsley) for therapy, while crushing on his step-daughter (Olivia Thirlby).
To no surprise, Method Man plays a Rastafarian drug dealer.
So far, in looking at his film credits from 'Belly' to 'How High' to 'Garden State', why is that most of his roles has him playing a drug dealer of some sort. It's one thing if you have to take the role when you get in the game, but Method has been acring for some time, I would have thought he would taken a role that shows some range.

hello brothers and sisters, if there be any here. I don't communicate much with the groups, don't have a lot to say, until now as i enter the end of my stay here on earth, i am musician, and although i don't get along to well with people in person, i do pretty good from a stage or keyboard which is my instrument, i don't agree with a lot, but then i don't have to...
it seems tha ppl get behind these computers and create all manner of mayhem - i look at all the beautiful and famous ppl, that get all the attention, and i have quietly made my way through life never having a hit, and maybe never wanting one, just liked to make music, love gospel hate the politic's....if you read this or not it's up to the moderators.
the attachment is a production that I'm involved, I'm figuring that there are a lot of talented ppl here, there's something about sex and talent that go hand and hand..... if there are any talented ppl, singers , writers, musicians, designers contact me at USG Media
my newsest for all the brothers and sisters in the life no matter what color, God loves yah all, the God of love, peace, acceptance and understanding, if you serve anyother you better check yourself, it might not be God at all.....
