Fairy Tales the Story of Someone elses Realities

While sitting here watchin this horribly put together movie entitled Envy; Another hustler story highly exaggerated to the 9th power. It's no wonder why the game is so watered down, and these young thugs lack fundamental street principals. It lead me to think of how the our street realities are distorted, and blown outta proportion to the masses. In turn the younger generation that view these movies become easily attracted to the point where they are fascinated to the lifestyle. Not realizing the consequences that lay ahead are highly severe, and very real. When that happens, whatever, the message that was intended gets overlooked. The reason for this usually comes from the fact that the director of these mediocre gangsta tales are usually the 3rd party narrator, or the dude that sat the sideline and wished he was the star in the game. Think about if Kobe told the story of the NBA, vs hearing it from Derrick Fisher. Sure they both Played in the same game; but at different competitive level/statuses; And naturally Kobe's insight will be more in-depth. Now, can you imagine that same info coming from the towel boy? He'll have to tell that story from an outsiders point of view. Unless ofcourse they admitted to his title/role, and involvement; you'd have no choice but to take it for face value. These are exactly the type people putting out these fake gangsta fairy tales. And it is because of the fact that we never know the writers/directors background before viewing the movie, to know his/her credibility. Hell, truthfully most of us just get lost in the entertainment; The mere chance at witnessing a Fairy tale the story of someone else's reality.Now that on top of the horrible acting in this Movie; and you got Gangstaploitation at it's finest, lol! We'll i guess that's what was meant by the saying; "Someone has to live to tale the story"!
