I grew up listening to RZA, Wu Tang is my favourite group in any genre of music, I know Wu and RZA like the back of my hand and he sounded absolutely NOTHING like RZA, not even close. It can almost hear what he's TRYING to do, but failing miserably at it and it's not entirely his fault, somebody should have told him to tone it down. I honestly don't know who I would have cast to be honest, I'm no casting director but the casting was on point for 95% of the show, especially ODB, Divine, Rae and Power but I don't know what RZA was thinking when he picked Ashton. Good actor, bad casting choice.@@mr.smellgood2794

The show was awesome, I only didn't care for the Liquid Swords episode. The run was near perfect. I really appreciate how with all the conflict amongst the members and crew they managed not to make anyone look bad. Quite respectful

[@Captmushy]

I agree I feel like a movie really wouldn't do wutangs story justice, especially since their are like multiple members. I don't know if a 2 hour movie could really have enough time to protray every member accurately Like the Straight Outta Compton movie is a good example I thought it was pretty good but i feel like a lotta roles got pushed to the side, like mc ren and yella got done kinda dirty in that movie ngl

[@DaGreatest786]

The reason it’s too hard to make a biopic movie about wu tang is because they have so many different members and so many diff characters. You can’t do all of them justice and tell a proper story in a 2 hour movie. A series is the right move. They can tell the story in depth and properly over several episodes and season

But I think RZA made the right decision.

I highly doubt a Wu film is next up. The NWA film was movie of the year material. It was hot. That fire has gone out now, so Wu Tang won't benefit from it.

[@christopher399]

@@KD_SWAGGER that'll be a long time. Plenty of other biopics will be prioritized. I think RZA made a stupid decision here. A Wu film with Leonardo DiCaprio attached to it, would've gotten them more money and fame. Yes, fame is important too. Sure, they're famous... But a Wu film with Leonardo DiCaprio could've put the spotlight back on them. They've not been in the spotlight for like two decades. Instead, they turned Leonardo DiCaprio down and went with a Hulu series that no one watches. Heck, even if i wanted to watch it, it's not available internationally. I'm in Europe. That series got them zero recognition. A Leonardo DiCaprio film might've made them one of the biggest names of the year. He was looking at big names to direct it. The film would've gotten proper attention. Remember the NWA film? If NWA had decided a Hulu series was the way to go, no one would've noticed.

In all respects to Rae, it's really the reason why the RZA is the RZA. He was the one with the plan and made every single member an icon off the strength of his vision. And everything Rae is talking about would have been way more expensive than the production of the cost to make a series. So seeing the bigger picture than just the awe of it. Lower production cost could net higher profit margin than producing a movie with a much higher budget.

And a chance for the actors to shine, and for the show to be its own thing, rather than trying to be a replica of the original.

@@TheWuCepticon1981 You sound like a RZA fanboy who doesn't care for rhymes. RZA's beats are cool, but I don't think they'd be worse off if they were rhymin over some Erick Sermon or Pete Rock or Premo or Havoc, etc.

[@censordat]

@@NatTurnerswitBurnerz RZA didn't just make the beats, he was the team's business man and core. He took everyone to the top like he promised and put everyone together even with internal beefs between members. The man did a lot for Wu!

@@NatTurnerswitBurnerz and you sound like a Rza hater and Raekown lover

[@RizzyRapz]

I agree with Rza's way. Its too many members of The Wu and way too much back story for a 2 hr movie. We undoubtedly would have shitted on that movie😂 they couldn't even do Tupac right in that lil bit of time

[@SippenCodeine]

Ashton made me grow respect and love for rza. Idk about y’all but I learn to love wu tang more cause of the actors in the show. reasons why I even got back into their music and actually explore them individually.

I rather see that and at times actors of Wu Tang could drop in in different episodes

[@skinnyminnieog]

The first season the accent wasn’t there until the second season🥴💀

[@ThatgirlGone]

But he had to do something different. RZa is such a complex and unique character. I think he would be a boring actor if he didn't do something to stand out as RZA. I like it.

[@thebeetmaker]

RIGHT!!!!!

[@melvinlovejones9722]

Rza, like Prince (and others like them), has to have complete control of a project they've visualized in order for it work and it's nothing wrong with that. It's either their way or the highway.

[@coltonlamar8892]

I knew I wasn't the only one to think this. He lays it on extra thick

[@doctatoonz9207]

Word. Rae is spot on. We need another one. I can watch the RZA’s version with my babies and my grandmother but we need one for a the heads to watch that is straight raw. We need that New Jack City Version. Word up God.

[@moveezy5591]

I feel Rae but in my opinion it was no way to do a Wu Tang movie in 2 hours ODB journey alone would take that long

[@waynemarshall8836]

The accent isn’t overdone its just robotic and he sounds like a kung fu master. Ashton Sanders should know better than that

[@byronkennedy7203]

That's EXACTLY what he sounds like. I was wondering if he was intentionally talking that way because of the heavy martial arts influence in their music.

[@dwillwilliams1240]

Overdose

[@waynemarshall8836]

He wasn’t sounding like that in series 1…blame the director for allowing the bs. In series 3 they may change it. But yeah for me it takes away the shine…plus Rza is lightskin b 😂

[@bigdre824]

The actor playing Rza, Ashton Sanders is a great your actor from my hometown, Carson, CA. I didn't start watching Wu Tang series on Hulu until recently, after seeing this interview about his mimic of Rza's voice. Season 1, I thought he just sounded like a dude from NYC. Then, halfway through Episode 1 of Season 2, yeah, he started this like monotone voice, trying a bit too hard to sound like Rza. It's like someone told him after Season 1 to change it up because he didn't sound like that in Season 1

Raekwon speaking facts on this one. The movie would’ve captivated all generations if it was indeed a movie. The series is cool, but doesn’t feel universal to all ages. Plus, the older generation is who came up with the Wu, not the younger generation.
