at the concept

 

[mecks]

^ i thought it was a docu ?

 

[thetim11]

Is there a real life Omar?

I'd rather see that, sans sex scenes

This is utter dookey...

I am defitnely not laying my eyes on this...

 

[da703trailblaza]

^ My bad you're right. however I was referring to the scenes within the documentary. Although most documentaries leave something to be desired.

 

[elocin023]

wow @ his story.

i'd watch only because i am a fan of the wire.

the acting/re-enactments look horrible.

I've read that Omar's boy on the show, the big, older dude that gets murked in the apartment when Omar jumps out the window, is the real Omar.

It does look bad, but I love The Wire so I'll check it out...

 

[mcflyyy]

i'm good.. this doesn't look entertaining at all. might as well go watch some American Gangster reruns.

How come you have no thread starting limit? I swear this is like the 5th thread you've started today

and why is this scum getting a dvd made about him in the 1st place?

 

[mytsharp]

I don't doubt dude was thorough.

But they make my man seem like he's superman.

6 shots to the head? And he's living to tell about it?

Yeah ok.

My-T.

Of course Kochrecords was behind this

I could have sworn they based Avon's character on Melvin Williams............ah well
