There's a scene in 'Grand Canyon,' a film released shortly before 'Juice,' that's like a setup for the second movie's whole tragic story.

Four Harlem friends'Bishop (Tupac Shakur), Q (Omar Epps), Steel (Jermaine Hopkins) and Raheem (Khalil Kain)- dabble in petty crime, but they decide to go big by knocking off a convenience store. Bishop, the magnetic leader of the group, has the gun. But Q has different aspirations. He wants to be a DJ and happens to have a gig the night of the robbery. Unfortunately for him, Bishop isn't willing to take no for answer.

I still think it's a hoax. After all, 1992's Juice is so deeply rooted in that particular time period, that there's a snowball's chance under Rosanne Barr's ass that a remake could ever fly in 2011. Thinking along those lines has brought me a substantial amount of relief when digesting the fact that the rumored remake, featuring Soulja Boy (as 2Pac / Bishop), could be a potential reality (as reported by XXL Magazine).

Juice is a 1992 hood thriller that marks the directorial debut of Spike Lee's cinematographer Ernest R. Dickerson (also co-writer). The film's narrative follows four aimless black teenagers in early 90's Harlem, and how one act of senseless violence quickly devolves into a horrific nightmare. The film's themes are strong and blatant--violence is perpetuated by readily obtainable weapons, and gives perceived power to the powerless. That power is the Juice. It's unfortunate that the film meanders around a silly D.J. plot and relies on a cartoonish evil villain to propel the film.Image Via: shopify.com

Can you believe it's been 24 years since 'Bishop' (Tupac) killed 'Raheem' (Khalil Kain) in the 1992 film, 'Juice' Let's just pause and take that in for a second because I think it's safe to say that many of us Old Schoolers probably feel like that time just flew by right up under our noses.
