Do you think that the picture used on the cover of the DVD/video and to advertise the mini series was chosen specifically because it did not include David's character? Please don't tell me it was because of the NASA on acid costumes LOL.
At the St. Stephen's opening when Al asks Diane "How'd you get so fine?" Eddie says that she is spoken for. By who?
When doing the preconcert prayer Paul says "...and continue to bless brother Dennis who has lifted us higher than ever." Is he referring to (as higher than ever) the grammy nomination? This probably has been discussed ad nauseum before but...were they a better, more successful group with Dennis than with David?
and ......
After Shelley shows David the letter that either fired him or formalized David's quitting (whatever), it shows the guys looking out the window as David goes off. Paul, Eddie, and Melvin look genuinely saddened while IMO Otis seems to look disgusted or as if he had just finished a really dirty task to semi quote Eddie later in the show as he if he had just taken out the trash. Did anyone else get that impression or do I have WAAAAAAY to much rtime on my hands?

That's that good acting. I never watched Otis in that scene. I was too busy looking for that part where Paul looks off to the side (I love that part for some reason). And I like watching DB's Melvin there and his face looks almost red, which is hard for a darker-skinned man to do. :laughing

Eddie, Melvin and Paul did look like they were embarrased for what was happening even if Paul and Melvin helped to vote him out.

No, I think they just chose that one because it was a nice shot.
Is he referring to (as higher than ever) the grammy nomination?
Yeah, that's the impression I got.
were they a better, more successful group with Dennis than with David?
Nope, at least I don't think so. They might have sold more albums or won more Grammy's but they were allowed to win Grammy's when David was there.
Otis seems to look disgusted ....... Did anyone else get that impression
Yeah, that's just one of the times that the movie portrays O as an a**-hole, a lot of people forget that.

Besides David's lil speech (which I have to a tee), that's the best part of the whole scene! ANd I thought it was just me! I rewind it just to see him turn his head. I don't know what it is about that, it's just...ummm...you know, sometimes it's just the little things When they show "O", it seems like he's trynna look hard. I say that everytime I see him curlin his lips up (..."curlin" his lips up???...don't ask) |

It should be "you ungrateful sons of bitches!" I just hate poor grammer (or is it grammar?) well whichver, I hate it. It's like on "The Way You Do" I can't decide if the phrase "if good looks was a minute" should be "if good looks were a minute."

I was too busy looking for that part where Paul looks off to the side (I love that part for some reason) Does anyone else notice that this was a beautiful show of foreshadowing? It's sad but Paul turned his head away. He looked back behind him, while the rest of them were looking forward. It seemed to foreshadow that he was next to leave...Anyone else notice this? Maybe it's my own interpretation.. |
