Times are a changin for many ((Grams))..Let me be the first to say what a great picture of Aba and Glenn! How many of us can say we've sat on the sofa with Glenn! I forgot about that picture. I was just trying to prove that Aba is who he says he is. Cornbreads death topic eh'? Oh yea okay, It's ashame how Eddie died, when I read stuff about him and how he died, I feel guilty for the pleasure's that he used, which contributed to his health problem. I am guilty myself. I just don't think, it's right to create false images of one's gods. That's all. This was directed and the person who apparently tries to sell eternal youth as a fact. (And the thread was declared open to anything one wanted to say.) Anna--YOU don't think it's right to create false images of one's god's? I think you are the person who does this more than anyone else. And what in the he{{ are you talking about "eternal youth?" Tara put Aba's picture up there, not him. I have read where he makes self-deprecating remarks about him being old all the time. He has never even insinuated anything about what are you saying. Of course, I am assuming you are talking about Tim since he seems to be the object of your current obsession, You really need to get in touch with THIS planet! If you think HE is Cloud 9, what cloud are you on?  |

THIS THREAD IS ABOUT CORNBREAD...READ THE TITLE...THIS IS MORE DISRESPECT TO HIM THAN THE MOVIE...PLEASE LET'S TAKE IT BACK...ALL I WAS SAYING IS THAT A LIE IS A LIE WHETHER OTIS TOLD IT OR JACK SPRAT.....I HEARD THAT IT WAS LIES FROM A RELIABLE SOURCE...NOW IF WE COULD DISCUSS WHY MY CORN'S FUNERAL WAS NOT PUT IN THE MOVIE WITH A SAD SONG AND PEOPLE CRYING I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE ME...DON'T GET MAD AT ME GET MAD AT WHOEVER ALLOWED THE LIE IN THE MOVIE BACK TO MY ORIGINAL THREAD PUHLEESE   You are right, mrsk. And I agree with you. As I stated before, I don't see why Hazel's battle with cancer was given so much attention, when she was only involved with the Temptations via her son, while Eddie's disease was given not more than two lines in the entire movie. I mean Eddie was a Temptation (no dramatic license needed here). Who would not wonder whether that is meant as slighting Eddie? Especially in the light of Eddie's not all too friendly separation from the group. Now, I could even go so far that in fictional works (as the movie apparently was) the fact that Paul's casket was shown only visited by Eddie and Melvin was meant to be symbolic. All the others had forsaken him? That, in my opinion, is the kind of analysis that everyone should be allowed to apply to any movie without being accused of dissecting a work put in front of an audience in order to find fault. I say, Eddie's death did not get the room in the movie that it deserved. Claiming that this happened because of Eddie's "private nature" does not convince me. |

Ed Now, I would be glad, if Ivory would return to see whether there is something to be done about my pm's being opened before I have a chance to read them. Wouldn't it be nice to ban a criminal from this board instead of posters who do not aggree? |

O didn't WRITE THE SCRIPT!!! And just how would he benifit from telling lies on David? How do you know he is lying? How do you know Otis told them...You don't...stop proving your ignorance. no my darling you don't stop proving yours...i wasn't going to get smart but you don't stop being argumentive, ignorant, and rude...who are you that you were appointed o's number one "rider" if you will. im sick of you...leave me alone. what is your problem. IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW THE MOVIE WAS BASED ON O'S BOOK DUH! O DIDN'T WRITE THE SCRIPT BUT IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN WRITTEN WITHOUT HIM! PUT IT THIS WAY IT WAS A LIE AN IGNORANT LIE A SLANDOROUS LIE, NO MATTER WHO PUT IT ON PAPER...THAT'S WHY IT WAS FOLLOWED BY A LAW SUIT.....MY GOODNESS. Again. I am inclined to agree with mrsk's statement. Fact is that David Ruffin was not thrown out of a car into the street, that Melvin Franklin did not die in his mother's kitchen, that Paul Williams' suicide was and still is questioned -- unless one does ignore reports and articles stating them. Fact is also that Eddie's death has been given the least attention of all the deaths described in the movie. And fact is that anyone has the right to put this subject up for discussion. Of course, as soon as one has started such a thread, everyone is entitled to voice his/her opinion -- whether or not it is aggreeable. Also, it is irrelevant to the discussion to cite that Otis has not written the script to the movie. It is relevant, however, how he managed to get is own feelings spared, while others' have been cruelly hurt? This is just to question the point so often made that he had NO say whatsoever in the making of the movie. Apparently, he had some kind of influence. Just an observation. Again! Eddie's death in the movie was handled like some kind of an afterthought, in my opinion, which does no justice to the man's significant part in the group. |

I am inclined to agree with that statement. Several people on this board, in this thread claim for example to know that what I have said wasn't true. How do they know? Did they sit in at private conversations? Was one or the other person iinvolved in these conversations wired? Their pm's scanned? Fact is that David Ruffin was not thrown out of a car into the street, that Melvin Franklin did not die in his mother's kitchen, that Paul Williams' suicide was and still is questioned -- unless one does ignore reports and articles stating them.

MrsK. I am sorry, I have editid my post while you were responding to it. The basics are the same, though. I just left the statement about myself out, because, I was not being discussed ...
Sorry again.
I think the thread was based on a valid observation about the movie. Maybe we can go on discuss the subject at hand.

The inaccuracies of the movie have been discussed over and over. It was explained why Melvin's death was dipicted as such. They were friends and they were together all the time.......I think they used Melvin's death to signal the end of an era, as far as "this" movie was concerned.. It wasn't explained why Eddie's was not given more attention other than the fact that the author of the book was not at the funeral as far as I know and they had been enstranged for quite some time. I believe if they had still been friendly towards each other, then it would have gotton more attention. If someone has a better answer, please put it up here so we can get past this. No one is trying to disrespect Eddie in any way...He is beloved as they all were..........it is impossible to figure out why it was done the way it was........we can only speculate.
PS....Aba's Scrapebook was taken off the board by me.................And I believe Weaky gave out DePasse' Entertainment's address so that anyone really wanting to know more can research it from there.

I think the thread was based on a valid observation about the movie. Maybe we can go on discuss the subject at hand. The subject has been discussed as far as can be with the factual information anyone here might have. Since you are so very interested, please see reply #137 to this thread... here I'll quote it for you... thanks Weaky!: "De Passe Entertainment. 5750 Wilshire Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90036 Telephone: (323)965-2580. Here you can write all your grievances to people who have something to do wit a movie." Why not get some facts? If you're truly interested. Any other further discussion will be relegated to ranting and raving "unfair to eddie, unfair to eddie!!!". That's been previously done here also. You are to be commended for trying, Kalisa, but Ms. Konda doesn't read English when it doesn't suit her. You are not the object of her twisted affection, nor are you inclined to agree with her, so save the stress on your fingers. |
