Rappers stepping to me they want to get some
But I'm the Kane, so yo, you know the outcome
Another victory
They can't get with me
So pick a BC date cause you're history
I'm the authentic poet to get lyrical
For you to beat me, it's gonna take a miracle
And, stepping to me, yo that's the wrong move
So what you on, Hobbs, dope or dog food?
Competition I just devour
Like a pitbull against a Chihuahua
Cause when it comes to being dope, hot damn
I got it good, now let me tell you who I am
The B-I-G D-A-double D-Y K-A-N-E
Dramatic, Asiatic, not like many
I'm different, so don't compare me to another
Cause they can't hang, word to the mother
At least not with the principal in this pedigree
So when I roll on you rappers, you better be
Ready to die because you're petty
You're just a butter knife, I'm a machete
That's made by Ginzu, wait until when you
Try to front, so I can chop into
Your body, just because you try to be basing
Friday the 13th, I'mma play Jason
No type of joke, gag, game, puzzle or riddle
The name is Big Daddy, yes Big not little
So define it
Here's your walking papers, sign it
And take a walk
As the Kane start to talk, cause...

My rhymes are so dope and
The rappers be hoping
To sound like me, so soon I'll have to open
A school of MCing, for those who want to be in
My field in court
Then again on second thought
To have MC's coming out sounding so similar
It's quite confusing for you to remember
The originator, and boy do I hate a
Perpetrator, but I'm much greater
The best oh yes I guess suggest the rest should fess
Don't mess or test your highness
Unless you just address with best finesse
And bless the paragraph I manifest
Rap prime minister, some say sinister
Non-stopping the groove, until when it's the
Climax, and I max, relax and chill
Have a break from a take of me acting ill
Brain cells are lit, ideas start to hit
Next the formation of words that fit
At the table I sit, making it legit
And when my pen hits the paper, ahh shit!
I stop and stand strong over MC's
And devour with the power of Hercules
Or Samson, but I go further the length
Cause you could scalp my cameo and I'll still have strength
And no, that's not a myth, and if you try to riff
Or get with, the man with the given gift of gab
Your vocab, I'll only ignore
Be sleeping on your rhymes till I start to snore
You can't awake me, or even make me
Fear you, son, cause you can't do me none
So, think about it if you're trying to go
When you want to step to me, I think you should know that...

I appear right here and scare and dare
A mere musketeer that would dare to compare
Put him in the rear, back there where he can't see clear
Get a beer, idea or near stare, yeah
So on to be want to be competition
Trying to step to me--must be on a mission
Up on the stage is where I'mma get you at
You think I'm losing?
Psst, picture that...

The name is Big Daddy, you know, as in your father
So when you hear a def rhyme, believe that I'm the author
I grab the mic and make MC's evaporate
The party people say, damn...that rapper's great
The creator conductor of poetry
Et cetera, et cetera, it ain't easy being me
I speak clearly so you can understand
Put words together like letter, man
Now that's dictation, proceeding to my innovation
Not like the other MC's, who are an imitation
Or an animation, a cartoon to me
But when I'm finished, I'm sure that you are soon to see
Reality, my secret technique
Because I always speak with mentality
I put my title in your face, dare you to base
And if you try and come get it, yo I'mma show you who's with it
So if you know like I know, instead of messing around
Play like Roy Rogers and slooow doown
Just give yourself a break, or someone else will take
Your title, namely me, cause I'm homicidal
That means murder, cause I'm about to hurt a-
Nother MC, that try to get with me
I'll just break him and bake him and rake him
and take him and mold him and make him
Hold up the peace sign...
Assalam Walaikum!

Road House is a true classic that can be watched over and over again.

100 years from now, people will still be watching Dalton dispense wisdom and kick ass, perhaps even fighting alongside him via virtual reality, while Citizen Kane (more like Citizen LAME) molders on the shelf.

The movie was great and certainly as good as the comic. You should keep your pipe in when you haven't seen it, because really, you were wrong.

The retards are the ones making the movie. I can see that was not clear.
300 was a comic book designed by Frank Miller to be "cinematic." Same with Sin City. So those properties don't suffer for the adaptation (even though I resent the making of Sin City as well). Spider Man, Superman, etc.. are all part of a greater mythology and have been multi-media more than twice most of our ages. The rest of the adaptations are just "comic book bullshit" and it doesn't matter what happens with it because it's nonsense thought up by nerdy fuckheads in their teens and twenties for the most part.
Watchmen was expressly designed to be the nexus of everything that comic books have been and could be. To anyone who cares, 300 is to Watchmen as Commando is to Casablanca. The story is fantastic and the story will translate well, but it's about the MEDIUM and what can be done with it.
I don't care about the changes. To be honest I'm sure the movie will be great, probably the best comic book adaptaion of all time. I'll be there opening day. That doesn't change the fact that I wish they weren't making it, so that more people would end up READING Watchmen rather than WATCHING it. They could make the most perfect adaptation of all time and I'd still resent the concept of a Watchmen movie.
The "Citizen Kane" parallel is not made lightly. Seeing Watchmen without having read the comic is just like reading Citizen Kane the comic book. It's not the experience the author intended. It's adulterated.

Truly, the Citizen Kane of implied lesbianism.

I thought Citizen Kane was a pile of steaming crap anyway so I would view that as a pointless endeavor.

Comics are basically movie storyboards, so saying that it won't translate well into cinema is a stupid thing to say.

If you're talking to me: That's not what I said, genius. Go read Citizen Kane the comic book if you think the mediums are so interchangeable.

I can't wait 'til every nitwit sees this movie and thinks they have experienced Watchmen. It's like reading Citizen Kane, the comic book. Can we stop filming every decent thing that has ever been written please?

Very first sign of the dumbing-down of the story even further than the bare translation. "Watchmen are finished"... There are no "watchmen" in the comic. The only reference to that word is in a grafitti slogan that is seen tagged around the city. 99% of people who haven't read the comic think the movie is about a super-team called "The Watchmen". Fucking retards.

Sort of film they re-release once in a while at the cinema, or at least I think they did here a few years ago. Maybe I shall just pick up the DVD.

It is a brilliant film.

I felt the same way the first time I watched it. I couldn't believe this is AFI best director film of all time. Then I watched it years later on a rainy afternoon and totally fell in love with it.

The news reel thing at the start puts alot of people off, because it takes sometime to cover his life and then start the actual film.

I can only imagine how it was watching it when it was made, news reels were always played before the film so it lent an interesting realism at that time.

That's a great final line. I have watched the film and didn't like it but that was years ago. Time to try again.

Call Horatio Kane

You're correct. The wanted graphic novel is not anywhere near as good as Watchmen. They're not even in the same league. However, almost nothing is in the same league as Watchmen, so that's not really much of an observation at all. It's like saying Commando is not as good as Citizen Kane. Yeah, no shit, genius.

The celebration of rape and murder does disturb me in Wanted, but the context of it being a villain's story is all I need to rationalize it. Wesley Gibbons is a fucking evil bastard who deserves to die, we just happen to be reading his story.

Weak plot? The Wanted graphic novel has an extremely tight and well-plotted story. Don't think it's fair to criticize the plot at all.

oh my god!

a kid so annoying you want to punch him and both his parents.
A film so bad you it makes Jaws 4 looks like Citizen Kane.

>> ^lampyman:
oh wow. another remake. i am so excited. how can we ever be satisfied with the crappy original attempt at any film ever...(day of the dead, dawn of the dead, invasion of the body snatchers (4 remakes),chainsaw massacre, omen, halloween to name but a few). remake citizen kane next and 2001 , and why stop there. theres a billion films we can shaft over the alter of no imagination. i really wish hollywood would start thinking about new ideas and stop remaking (or to use their language 'reimagining' [shudders in disgust])and have an original idea or at least have enough integrity to attempt to make the film not cash in on the reputation of another (call it something else for a start). light weight, plageristic, no talent, cynical money grabbing feckwits AAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!. [lampyman reaches for a bottle of scotch to sooth his frazled nerves]


Fuck this nonsense! This conservative propaganda is akin to saying that once a play has been performed it should never be performed again due to the differing actors and director. The remake of Halloween by Rob Zombie is a far superior film to the first. Furthermore, the remake of Dawn of the Dead is one of the best zombie movies ever made. This is being said by a die hard Romero fan damn it. Shove your scotch up your ass.
