Lottery Ticket trailer, you guys:
No offense to Lil Bow Wow, but I like Gbenga Akinnagbe better? And I hope he seals Lil Bow Wow’s body in one of those old abandoned houses on the West Side with a nail gun? I do love how this movie establishes the major dramatic tension between Lil Bow Wow and Gbenga Akinnagbe, and then resolves that tension IN THE TRAILER with a punch from Ice Cube. I mean, I know that cornball comedies (even URBAN cornball comedies) have happy endings, but jeez. I’m also glad to see that we don’t have to see the movie to be inspired by Lil Bow Wow’s last minute change-of-heart from crass materialism to helping his community. We get that right now! We don’t even have to wait on line at Fandango for them to add extra screenings! In fact, the only mystery that still remains about this movie is what role, exactly, will Bill Bellamy play? We know that he is the hot girl’s boyfriend, but I bet there’s something more going on there. WELL, THEY DON’T WANT TO SPOIL EVERYTHING.
And we end with a Hurley joke.

“I got some shit I cold say about Bow Wow’s movies, but he called me and tried to fix shit, so I give it 4 stars.” -KatStackmoviereviews.com
WTF
IS DIS REAL
I’ve been waiting all day for someone to use that line. Well done, werttrew.
I’m just pretending that Da Cake Eatur wrote that.
You’re a star now, little monkey!
Isn’t it just “Bow Wow” now and not “Lil Bow Wow?”
Get with it, DAD.
I refuse to live my life by Lil Bow Wow’s rules.
All your Puffy references make sense now. You weren’t describing a state of swelling of the exterior membrane.
it goes: LIL’ BOW WOW >>> BOW WOW >>> BIG’OLE BOW WOW
Bow Wow straight off the 2005 smash hit “Roll Bounce”.
Which of course was set up by 2002′s breakthrough roll in “Like Mike.”
needs more lil’ romeo
True, but it has the perfect amount of T-Pain (some).
“Give people something to live for instead of just living.”
I wanna go all Chris on Mike’s dad on this line.
Gbenga Akinnagbe should have learned that playing second bill to Lil Bow Wow in a stupid movie will further your career a total of zero places. This is Gbenga Akinnagbe in two years time.
“Nice bangs, asshole.” – Bieber
“Did you know my crappy movie career will eventually span 3 decades?”
That Kid, back in 96.
Can you nominate a film (term used loosely) for the THWMOAT based on the trailer? I think we’ve found the winner.
This is why we feel white guilt
Watch him build a community center or something. Also, it looks like a perfectly fine working-class neighborhood, but ok.
That was one problem (ONE. PROBLEM.) I had with this trailer… They’re definitely trying to make it seem like the characters in this film live in the projects (just like all black people do! Duh!) when in reality that is a very nice area. There’re children’s sidewalk chalk drawings under the area they fight in, fer chrissake!
not all housing projects are bad places….
Dude, that is very true. I’m just referring to the stereotypical type of housing projects that a movie like this would have on the brain. I’m home sick and I’m on a lot of medication, I am sorry. My next-door neighbors growing up were in projects and they were nice places, except one that burned down over and over again. Childhood!
What, no rollerskating?
Just give Chris Partlow the ticket, Bow Wow. Do it before you end up in an abandoned building.
Oh wait, Gabe already made that reference. Nevermind.
Bill Bellamy hasn’t had a hit since the third inning of Rock’N'Jock softball in 1996.
I just revealed how old I am, didn’t I?
*looks up sadly at Dan Cortese poster*
I used to have such a crush on Dan Cortese circa the Rock’N'Jock days. I should be embarrassed and yes, I am.
um, pretty sure he dropped a 30 pointer on Eric Nies in the ’97 bball.

OMG! Eric Nies!
*Sigh* I was just hit with a wave of nostalgia.
I signed it, but I hated every second of it!
i don’t need to watch this trailer…i lived it.
For those (none) of you who would’ve gone and seen this solely for Terry Crews’ scene, you can get that right now also:
**SPOILER WARNING** (please, I have manners.)
Finally, a comedy with the guts not to give away all of the jokes in the trailer. Brava, Lottery Ticket!
i think you mean all of the joke – there can’t possibly be more than one.
Is Bow Wow’s character a referee, or does he just work at Foot Locker?
I wondered that as well, which led to the question, Is Foot Locker still around?
I guess not ALL of the questions have been answered! Something to look forward too…
looks like we have our first official Videogum Movie Club movie of 2010 lined up! Can’t wait til summer 2010!
So basically this is a Tyler Perry movie with Ice-T in the Madea-type role?
Damn You, Tyler Perry! Take a vacation!
Because black people.
The editing was really choppy…could anyone tell if Brandon T. Jackson was a satyr in this one too?
I remember those days. I’m only 20 though.
Replying the Rock n Jock days.
