I like it when Jim Norton tells the The Spike Lee story because maybe he has a strong memory or maybe he looked up to Patrice as a great friend but he tells the story word for word and has the same tone
Ha ha! Fucking Patrice was a comedy of errors sometimes. He wouldn’t do that movie for Spike Lee but he did Furry Vengance. But that’s what we all loved about him.
Patrice’s ego was ultimately what cost him work from big players, but I respect the hell out of him sticking true to his pride. If a company told me I sucked and would never work in the comedy world I would have told them to fuck off too. I’m sure Spike was hoping to achieve a Détente between Patrice and Paramount
The Spike Lee story is so fascinating, like really, its such a real insight into the business and in some regards an important life lesson. Actually its basically a retelling of Do the Right Thing lmao
Why didnt Patrice explain the Situation to spike like he did in this clip? At worst the bridge would have been burned. Most likely spike would have understood and it would have been ok. Best case, spike would have convinced the big wigs that they were wrong about Patrice. Even if spike committed a faux pas, Patrice could have handlers the situation better. No?
Spike reaching out was a favor and Patrice was a complete dick and dumb. It’s funny af him telling spike lee to call his people. That shit will make people hate you so bad they go above and beyond to make sure you don’t get work.
Spike Lee thought he was Michael Jackson. Only MJ can call random celebrities and offer them parts in his videos and they say yes just to be in a Michael Jackson music video. 🤣
Spike Lee is pointless. Hardly anyone knows his name or anything he did. But everyone knows and loves and looks up to Patrice. No "fan" does what he did.
@@silkybuns799 Look into his relationship with Nia, especially as far as the kid goes. Look into how he went all in on the vacks. He's a cuck and a shill.
@@lukess.s I know bro... look at these pussies thinkin they know & can judge patrice. Also ur right patrice was good in 25th hour. Not as bad as these idiots making it out to be.
