It looks good to me. I love stories about education or sports.

I lubs me some Sam Jackson. It would be interesting to be inside the head of the casting director who decided on Ashanti and Adrienne Bailon (member of 3LW).

I look forward to seeing this movie as well.

I agree. Why not cast Kyla Pratt, a real actress? It appears that Ashanti's character is prego by Ron Brown's character from trailer.

I don't know yet about Kyla Pratt. I'm waiting to see her in roles that are unlike anything she's played before. Every time I hear her whine/screech "Dadeeeeeeeeeeeeee" on that show with Flex Alexander, it puts me in the mind of "Thelma" on "Amen" screeching to Sherman Hemsley. Lawd they can screech.

What about the teenage girl on the Bernie Mac Show?

I saw the preview during Ray. It looks good. I'll check it out. I LOVE RON BROWN! Where has he been since Finding Forrester?

On the site, you can preview the soundtrack as well as get an AIM icon for free. I chose Sam as mine.

My mom is taking my cousins to see it next weekend. I want to go with my mommy too.

MTV Films is one of the production companies for the film. I suspect they pushed for their casting to make the movie appeal to different fan bases.

I'm going to see the movie on Thursday. The local radio station gave away FREE passes to an advanced screening.

Well, I saw the movie and I must say that it was much better than I expected. I probably will get the movie when it comes out on DVD. I even shed a tear.

I saw the movie about a month ago in a free preview, I liked it very much.

In some of the recent trailers it looks like they might have added some scenes, I may have to go check it out.

I really liked the message that coach carter got these boys to think about and possibly some of the school administration.

It is sad to me that some administrator's think like the one's portrayed in this film.

This was a VERY good movie, for being a sports movie. I thought it was going to be predictable, but it wasn't as much as I thought.

go support!! Good movie! The soundtrack is like that

I tried 2 go see it twice and it has been sold out. So I'm gonna try again next weekend.

CrimsonTide4 · #14 09-11-2005, 05:56 PM

I'm finally watching it now. Very good movie. Very good indeed. Even Ashanti isn't making me overly sick.

I saw it for the first time a few weeks ago and was surprised how much I liked it. I still didn't like Ashanti. LOL!
