    In honor of the upcoming cinematic masterpiece Get Rich or Die Tryin', I decided that this was a timely and important poll question.

    I know I'm in the minority, but my favorite is Who's the Man?, mainly because of Dennis Leary's hilarious performance as Sergeant Cooper, followed closely by Friday, then 8 Mile. I've never seen Cool as Ice, but I'm certain that a special edition DVD is coming out soon...

    How about Gang Related with Tupac? He is actually a pretty good actor in addition to being the most important rapper in history.

    I second that.

    I think 3-6 Mafia's "Choices" was also pretty good. :D

    Mos Def is the best actor among rappers. He was great in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

    Choices sucked, so I hope that was sarcasm.

    I completely forgot about Boyz N The Hood. Great movie.

    The guy that was in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a rapper? Impressive. He was really good in that movie. What kind of rapper is he?

    Cool as Ice is one of the funniest movies ever made. It's just so terrible.
