^^^^Lol...true!
But nevertheless, Pac was a good actor and I think he would have made Cain's role even a bit more lively (and let's be honest...Caine's acting wasn't always that good either).

I think Pac might have played O Dogg's part better than he woulda done for Cain...Cain's acting was on point, because it really described that type of dude...wasn't 110% hood or wild like O Dog, and was damn near nervous about a lot, and he felt like he was trapped in the hood but you can tell he wanted to get out. Pac woulda played a role like O Dog's better, well at least with me thinkin of Death Row Pac, who was just crazy as hell and didn't give a damm like O Dog. But then Pac was a lot more calm in 92-93 so maybe he would have done Cain's part better back then.

there was some interview/quotes about this in a book... either The Killing Of Tupac Shakur or Have Gun Will Travel
Pac was set for one of the big roles... but he decided not to do it because he had some other thing goin on, and asked for another role.. they gave him a "sucker role" (that's what he called it), and he got mad.

the movie is perfect the way it is, it doesnt need Pac or Snoop. but 2Pac did a good job in "Juice"

That's real...I don't think Snoop woulda been good in a movie doin any role until like the late 90s anyway. But damn, just the thought of Snoop n Pac in a movie just has you like damn, that shit sounds amazing huh?

I also remember hearin Janet didn't wanna kiss Pac in "Poetic Justice" because she knew he'd been gettin around (just like the song) and she thought he had AIDS or some shit like that.
her people told him he must get tested for aids or she would not kiss him.he told them to get fucked....

Tupac was a great actor no doubt.  His role as Bishop in Juice was amazing.
Oh I like this one... One dog goes one way, the other dog goes the other way, and this guy's sayin', "Whadda ya want from me?

from the info ive seen, pac was probably set to play o-dogg, but couldnt, and was offered to play the muslim... he got offended and beat down one of the hughes brothers..

i personally think pac and/or snoop wouldve ruined the movie... its classic, cuz boyz n tha hood was way 2 soft for the real la

Pac wasnt happy about the role he was to play, from i what heard he was lined up to play the role of the loud ass homeboy who gets ass whooped badly for touching up Jada pinketts character and then snitches on everyone with that video tape. Pac read the script and got vexed rolled up with his homiez n some baseball bats and whooped on the hughes bros. They called the cops etc..

MC Ren was originally gonna play Eihts part but he didnt pull it off some shit so Eiht was chosen.

Eiht was dope in his role 'Both you bitches shut the fuck and pass me joint back' 'you in trouble nigga let me help you...pop,pop,pop..c'mon my niggas'.

I think Lawrence as O-dog, reached cult status, like a black Tony Montana. The American Nightmare.

Eiht really was the OG. Smooth motherfucker. Classic acting. Should do more movies.

Chauncy was the ultimate snitch. Classic acting. Dddddo i ssssttttuttter mottterfucka!

Rest of them was aight.

imo Pac wouldn't fit in this movie.... i haven't seen Juice, but he was AFWUL in Above The Rim, but then again... he was good in Gridlock'd, Poetic Justice and Gang Related...
