two shady concert promoters (cube and epps) get into hot water when their chance to book a superstar rapper goes awry .
despite finding success across genres, it seems to be the urban comedy route that cube is most invested in; these are the only films he’s written or directed, and he keeps returning to similar projects every few years. janky promoters, the first film written by cube since the third chapter of the friday series, reunites the rapper with comedian mark epps in a story about over - ambitious concert promoters getting in over their heads with a major booking .

yet another project dumped by third rail releasing, the weinstein co. subsidiary that gave us (very few of us) “killshot” and “outlander, ” “the janky promoters” may please fans of top - billed ice cube if they stumble across the pic during its fleeting pre - homevid run. a genially slapdash, brazenly non - pc comedy in the tradition of cube’s “friday” franchise, “promoters” overall is no worse, and often slightly better, than most similar fare pitched at the euphemistically designated “urban audience, ” and might have sold a decent number of ducats had it not been placed in the theatrical equivalent of the witness relocation program .
tech values are passable though occasionally sloppy. the onscreen “explanation” of the title helpfully explains that “janky” is a term for “shady, untrustworthy, dishonest, despicable”; trouble is, “untrustworthy” is misspelled “untrustworty. ” no, really .
friday co - stars ice cube and mike epps reunite to portray two shady concert promoters who attempt to make a mint and stage the show of a lifetime. against all odds, the fast - talking hustlers manage to talk a legitimate hip - hop superstar (young jeezy) into putting on a big show. but they' ve only got 24 hours to sell out a massive concert hall. as the two unscrupulous promoters scramble to make the show a success, a whole host of embittered rivals scheme to ensure that they fail in spectacular fashion .

ic: the weinsteins fucked me. [ laughs. ] yeah, basically, they fucked me. they was runnin’ through financial problems, so they couldn’t put the movie out on wide release. and they told us we could sell the movie to another company, give them their money back—i had money tied in that movie—and then release it wide. while we were making the deal over here, they put it out on dvd over there. and i found out because somebody told me, “i just got the dvd for janky promoters. ” i went through the roof .
young jeezy stars as himself, playing the rapper the promoters bring into their small club. marcus raboy, a former music video director who jumped to features with friday after next, is at the helm. cube produces alongside matt alvarez, who put together the barbershop films. (sean collier / bop )

other movies that have filmed at the glen capri include the country bears, diamonds & guns, and janky promoters. episodes of without a trace, parks and recreation, cold case, saving grace, night stalker, close to home, day break, windfall, lovespring international, mad men, and nip / tuck have also been shot at the glen capri. you can check out the hotel’s very thorough filming page, which chronicles all of the productions that have been filmed on the premises over the past ten years, on its website here. love it! there are actually several different motels in the glen capri chain and the one located at 326 colorado street, also in glendale, has been used for filming, as well. it has appeared in episodes of life and the surreal life and in a 2007 smash mouth music video .

teamed once again with mike epps — his co - star in “all about the benjamins” and two “friday” installments — cube doesn’t exactly exert himself as russell redds, an overly ambitious and chronically cash - strapped wheeler - dealer who tries, with only infrequent success, to promote rap concerts in beautiful downtown modesto, calif. it’s a tailor - made role for cube — not surprising, considering he wrote the script — and he plays it with his familiar mix of brash - talking bluster and brow - knitting frustration .
likewise, as russell’s partner, jellyroll, an even less savvy would - be impresario, epps goes through the motions with reliable shtick — a little self - delusional swagger here, a bit of bling - flinging there, flashes of mortal terror scattered throughout .
the duo’s latest venture is a typically undercapitalized attempt to present a modesto concert by rapper young jeezy (played, in a bold stroke of casting, by rapper young jeezy). but this enterprise serves merely as an excuse for a loose - knit series of unevenly amusing encounters with, among others, russell’s sassy, crack - dealing mom (juanita jennings), a skeptical theater owner (julio oscar mechoso), young jeezy’s prickly road manager (lahmard tate), russell’s wannabe rapper son (lil’ jj, billed here as “lil’ jj” james lewis) and a murderously jealous cop (glenn plummer) whose wife unwisely consorts with jellyroll .
pic earns its r rating: sexual activity is frequently referenced — and, in one case, simulated just out of camera range — and quite a bit of the dialogue is profanely funny. two of the most hilarious wisecracks — one involving michael vick, the other mentioning martin luther king jr. — are almost shocking in their cavalier disregard for good taste .
helmer marcus raboy (“friday after next”) keeps the pace relaxed without undue dawdling. pic doesn’t build to a climax so much as slow down and then stop, indicating that, at some point, everyone involved simply shrugged and collectively said, “ok, that’s enough fun, let’s wrap it up and go home. ” the good news is, auds should feel pretty much the same way at precisely the same point .
production: a third rail releasing release of a dimension pictures presentation of a cube vision production. produced by ice cube, matt alvarez. executive producers, bob weinstein, harvey weinstein, neil machlis. co - producer, david k. hebenstreit. directed by marcus raboy. screenplay, ice cube .
crew: camera (technicolor), tom priestly; editor, robert ivison; music, john murphy; music supervisor, spring aspers; production designer, bradley thordarson; art director, robert strohmaier; set designer, betty ruhl; costume designer, dana campbell; sound (dolby dts / sdds), walter anderson; assistant director, donald sparks; casting, kim taylor - coleman. reviewed at premiere nasa dollar 8, webster, texas, oct. 21, 2009. mpaa rating: r. running time: 85 min .

the a. v. club: lottery ticket is a bit like friday and barbershop —a slice - of - life comedy with a nice neighborhood feel. is that one of the things that appealed to you about it ?
ice cube: uh… not really. but you know, we got young directors and writers who are fans of the barbershop and friday movies. so i understand the similarities in the writing and the shooting. i definitely want these dudes to express themselves, because we work with a lot of first - time directors. so that ain’t really what appealed to me the most. what appealed to me was just the upbeat neighborhood comedy. i think that’s straight in our wheelhouse. we’re one of the best out there that do this kind of movie. and you know, it’s smart business to do it .
avc: you’ve said that you do more comedies than dramas because those are the films that get made and those are the films that make money. why do you think that is ?
ic: i think you know we went through a wave in the ’90s of some hardcore films. from boyz n the hood to menace ii society and south central. if you remember, there was always little incidents in those theaters. so i really think the theaters went to the movie studios and basically said they didn’t really want the hard dramas. [ laughs. ] you know what i mean? so i think it was a shift of “yo, let’s do more comedies. ” it’s really no incidents, no issues, you know. people enjoy ’em, and they go see ’em all the time. so i think that just became the black hollywood fare, so to speak .
ic: of course. i think on the consumer tip, of course. and that’s why i do more of these type movies. simply because my records are hard. my records talk about what people are going through most of the time. and these movies—when people go out to the movies, they wanna escape the reality, or see an upbeat reality, you know, that’s not so drab. they respond to these movies and watch them over and over again .
avc: speaking of dramas, there’s going to be a n. w. a. movie. what’s your involvement in that ?
ic: i’ve been working close with new line and tomica wright, eazy - e’s widow, on just kind of getting our ducks in a row on this movie. right now, we’re going into the scriptwriting phase. it’s a lot of outlines. what’s tricky is, it’s five different stories that have to come together and make one linear movie. we can’t put everything in there, or it turns into a miniseries. we’re trying to figure out what stays, what goes, what the movie’s gonna be .
ic: it’s crazy. when i did boyz n the hood, i never thought how we grew up in south central was interesting enough for a movie. and i never would think that my life would be interesting enough for a movie. so it’s just one surprise after another. really, after n. w. a. , it’s been constant growth and surprise .
avc: but your life is definitely part of history. you’re a major part of history of the last 30 years .
ic: yeah. which is cool, you know? i guess when you first set out to do something, that’s what you wanna be. you wanna be remembered for making an impact and changing things. i guess for the good or for the bad, it don’t matter. but i guess you just wanna be remembered when it’s all said and done .
ic: i think so. i think, to me, reality is better than being fake. n. w. a. was so real, it changed the trajectory of pop culture in a lot of ways. because before, you would have… take somebody like ike turner, who… [ punches his palm. ] you know what kind of kid he is, but on tv, he’s a nice guy. now, ike turner could be ike turner. [ laughs. ] you know what i mean? nowadays, you can be yourself. you don’t have to put on this façade. you can be who you are and still be just as successful as the ones who put on the fake façade. you know, it’s like reality is just as important as fiction .
avc: but it seems like with gangsta rap, there’s a lot of non - reality and posturing .
ic: at a certain point, the lines start to blur and crisscross from reality to fantasy. it’s kind of being in a dream world and being in the real world at the same time. that tends to happen with anything. you can take movie - reel shots of the iraq war, or a comic book of the iraq war. one of ’em is totally fiction, but it still stems from reality. and it’s kind of the world we live in. you go from reality to damn near comic book on any subject you can think of .
avc: do you think gangsta rap would be the cultural force that it is if were not for n. w. a. ?
ic: i don’t think so. i think we made it more than just gangsta rap. we made it a political statement. we’re most famous for our most political record, “fuck tha police. ” it’s a message a lot of people around the world wanted to say for so long, and it’s kind of like we released the floodgates, you know what i mean ?
ic: not only for a community, but for—all over the world, you have people basically loving this song, because it fights the authority that everybody faces all around the world, which is the police and police brutality. you know, i think by that song alone, it sets us apart from the rest .
ic: yeah. i mean, it stems from there and can go on to bigger and better agencies, you know what i’m sayin’? we started off talking about our oppressor, our overseer, which was the sheriffs, the police department, l. a. p. d. but from that song, you can stem all the way up the ladder. i think people feel that .
avc: you were bused to school as a kid. how do you think that affected the way you see the world ?
ic: well, i know that it is a world out there. sometimes when you’re relegated to your neighborhood, you forget that there’s more important things than your neighborhood going on out in the world. and that just gave me a chance to see how life could be. and it gave me a chance to interact with everybody, not just black people or mexicans. it made me just a little more worldly .
ic: yeah. no doubt. you know, just being on the freeway. [ laughs. ] going through all these different neighborhoods just broadens your horizons .
avc: —and were surprised that it didn’t receive a big release, like a lot of your other films with mike epps. what happened ?
ic: nah. it was the shadiest shit that ever happened to me in the movie business .
avc: and that’s surreal, because that’s what the plot of the film is about: people getting fucked over in business .
ic: exactly. so it’s real ironic. and the movie was unfinished. we still had a few days of reshoots we had to do to shore up the end. it had a lot of loose ends. the music wasn’t right. and they just basically snuck over here, edited it, finished it, and put it out. it was like crackhead shit. stealing the microwave out your grandmamma’s house and selling it on the street. [ laughs. ] so you know, i learned a lesson. but that’s what happened with that movie. that movie would’ve made money. people would’ve went to go see it. they just tanked it .
ic: no! nah, i’m not happy. ’cause it could have been, i think, at least 25 percent better. and you know, you want to finish the movie. you don’t want people to see a rough draft, you know what i’m sayin’? so it was kind of wack .
ic: i mean, i ain’t gonna say their names. [ laughs. ] but it’s some dudes out of ohio. they’re the ones who came back there, didn’t have no money. [ laughs. ] and they came back with jewelry, and they wanted to pay me in jewelry. so that’s a part i put in the movie: “gimme that watch. ” [ laughs. ] so you know, we broke down the equipment, and it was a riot, just like it was in the movie. people went crazy when they saw my dj taking equipment down. they just went crazy. guns was pulled out .

the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans. it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .
movies and tv shows are certified fresh with a steady tomatometer of 75% or higher after a set amount of reviews (80 for wide - release movies, 40 for limited - release movies, 20 for tv shows), including 5 reviews from top critics .
it' s a tailor - made role for cube - - not surprising, considering he wrote the script - - and he plays it with his familiar mix of brash - talking bluster and brow - knitting frustration .
humorless feature film that aspires toward a comedic pitch that should' ve never been placed in the hands of ice cube. mike epps, sure. but cube is best bewildered, not fitted for clown shoes .
ice cube and mike epps' much - delayed fourth screen teaming has to be a landmark of some sorts in how a company' s complete lack of concern for its own product could not be more brazenly apparent .

a few weeks ago, i dragged the grim cheaper out to stalk the glen capri inn & suites – a historic and oft - filmed glendale - area motel that has appeared in over twenty movie and television productions in the past six years alone. i was most interested in stalking the property due to its appearance in the 2002 flick the good girl, which starred my girl jen aniston. and even though i didn’t like the good girl at all (it was just far too dark and depressing for my taste), because ja had filmed there, i was dying to see the motel which was featured in it in person .
before arriving at the glen capri inn & suites, i was a little nervous that the place would not be very stalker - friendly and that taking photographs of the premises would be a big no - no. as it turns out, though, i needn’t have worried. the man working at the front desk was very nice and said that we could take all of the pictures that we wanted. and there was even a “wall of fame” located in the main office, with signed headshots of all of the actors who had filmed at the motel on display .
as you can imagine, i just about died when i saw my girl jen’s autographed picture hanging on the wall. so incredibly cool !
in the good girl, the glen capri stood in for the texas - area motel where justine last (aka jennifer aniston) and holden worther (aka jake gyllenhaal) conducted their on - going affair .
... and room 8 were used in the flick. i don’t want to give away the ending, but room 8 also featured significantly in the movie’s climactic finale. on a good girl side note – mike, from movieshotsla, recently stalked retail rodeo, the discount store where justine and holden worked in the movie. you can see pics of it on his site here .
in 2004’s raising helen, the glen capri stood in for the new york - area motel where helen harris (aka kate hudson) and jenny portman (aka joan cusack) catch their underage niece audrey davis (aka hayden panettiere) on prom night. audrey’s room was number 205 .
in the 2004 teen comedy the girl next door, matthew kidman (aka emile hirsch) took danielle (aka elisha cuthbert) to the glen capri with the hopes of seducing her while there .
ironically enough, emile hirsch returned to the glen capri two years later to film a scene for the 2006 drama alpha dog. in the flick, the glen capri stood in for the albuquerque motel where johnny truelove and his girlfriend angela holden (aka olivia wilde) hid out after police had discovered the body of zack mazursky (aka anton yelchin) .
in 2007’s georgia rule, the glen capri stood in for the hull, ohio - area motel where arnold (aka cary elwes) stays while in town visiting his wife, lily (aka felicity huffman), and his step - daughter, rachel wilcox (aka lindsay lohan). in the movie, arnold stays in room 206 .
stalk it: glen capri inn & suites is located at 6700 san fernando road in glendale. you can visit the hotel’s official website here. the good girl was filmed in the main office and in room 8; raising helen also used the main office and room 205; and georgia rule was filmed in room 206 .
great post, i wondered where this motel was located. i loved the movie raising helen. the part of the movie that used the motel is my favorite. i loved when joan cusack aka aunt jenny busted down the door and told audrey aka hayden panettiere that “you have three seconds to get your things and get to the car now”, and audrey says “are you happy you just ruined my entire life” and aunt jenny says” well we’ll fix it later”. thanks again
so glad you love it! !! i really didnt do anything though, it was all my girl jen (as in my daughter, not aniston…. lol) and her friend sheena. so i would like to thank them both for making it happen! !! 🙂 and sheena can always bring more over to the states. i hear she makes the trip across the pond quite frequently. again, so glad you love it! ! !

in public enemy’s diatribe against a racially lagging hollywood, “burn hollywood burn, ” ice cube and big daddy kane joined chuck d in blasting the still - racist tendencies of mainstream studios and praising the efforts of spike lee, post - do the right thing. truth be told, however, kane and chuck provided the commentary on the entertainment industry; cube’s brief verse, like much of his output around the early' 90s, was focused on hating the police .
in spite of that, it was cube that joined the ranks of rappers - turned hollywood moguls; nearly 20 years later, the former nwa member’s resume includes extensive writing, directing and acting experience, as well as the obligatory turns as producer. over the past few years, cube has focused on acting, concurrently running down the career paths of a kid’s movie mainstay (are we there yet? , are we done yet? , the longshots ,) an action star (xxx: state of the union, torque, ghosts of mars) and an urban comedy star (first sunday, all about the benjamins, the players club. )
this is cube’s sixth script, and all of the previous five have turned a profit. the initial friday film made nearly ten times its budget, finishing around $ 28 million off of a $ 3. 5 million budget; the first non - friday film cube wrote, the players club, made $ 23 million off of $ 5 million. friday after next, cube’s most recent writing project, pulled in $ 32 million, although the budget grew to $ 20 million .
looking at those numbers, films penned by ice cube would seem to be a sure thing; however, friday after next came out way back in 2002, and cube’s image has softened considerably since then. grown - up audiences may now associate him more with the longshots than friday .

, was finally released - and it slipped right past us because the studio released it with a very limited theater run. the studio ,
, didn’t expect the very limited release and made very many moves to get it released theatrically so it wouldn’t go straight to the dvd shelves. as you may already know, the film had its release date moved at least three times - and that’s just the amount of times we know of .

it' s the week before black friday, which is widely reported as the busiest shopping day of the year. (it' s not. christmas eve is the busiest shopping day of the year; however, on christmas eve a lot of the purchases are last minute food items .) if a studio wants its product to be part of black friday, this is the last tuesday they can release the dvd or blu - ray. because of this, i' m a little surprised the week isn' t busier than it is. the biggest release of the week is
