Denzel is one of those I'll watch in ANYTHING. He's such a great actor. His son is gonna be something, too. Ethan Hawke didn't get a lot of credit for Training Day, but he was also incredible.
I mean to be fair, Ethan Hawke was nominated for an Oscar for Training Day.
oh wow, I didn't know (or remember) that! He's a good actor, I like him.@@LuxLisbon26
Yes, me too!!! Denzel is phenomenal! Oh yes, his son his good, too. I also like Ethan Hawke, he's a good actor.
His son is awful at acting. I didn't know it was him in The Black Klansman and after the movie I couldn't stop talking about how terrible the main character actor was.
To be fair, I can’t think of a mediocre movie he’s played in…
Antoine caught himself when he was talking about Snoop. He wasn't gonna say, "that's my man" at first.😅
Fr. Almost let the soft A slip on daytime radio/tv
😂😂😂
😂 I caught that too
1 million percent😂😂😂
Caught that too 😂
Training Day is a masterpiece.
What a joke.
@@gustavbrinkel5489
🤫🤫🤫
Relax, it's a good film with some great performances, but it is not a masterpiece.
@@kh7688It was good enough for Denzel to win his first Best Actor Oscar...
@cwell510 The same Oscar the even Denzel said, was given to him because they felt they owed him one. He should have won for Malcolm X. The same way Pacino should have won for Godfather Part II, Serpico or Dog Day Afternoon, or Leo for various roles other than The Revenant.
This man is extremely genuine and intelligent and still cool as hell.
I watch training day every couple days, it's just good,Denzel so corrupt, Ethan so honest and pure😂
Tears of The Sun is still my favorite Fuqua movie and probably one of Bruce Willis’s best acting performances outside of The Sixth Sense.
Hell to the yes !( People slept in " Tears Of The Sun)!. Damn good movie.
Tears of the Sun was a friggin masterpiece!! I didn’t know he directed it
Oh bro you’re kidding me. I didn’t know that was him directing that movie. I have been saying for months that I feel like rewatching that movie but just didn’t feel like going through the emotional rollercoaster. That movie is so great.
Tears of the Sun is not mentioned enough....this man is a fantastic director
Love Tears of the Sun... I can watch that movie over and over again. The chemistry between Bruce Willis and his Navy Seal unit felt so real. It's like they had been on a hundred missions together, especially when they would address eachother by nicknames and everything.
@@KevinCantWait08 very intense film! Based on true events...loved it
That film is a low key classic, highly underrated
“Tears of The Sun” (2003) and “King Arthur” (2004) are the same film
Elements of The Magnificent 7 (2016) are also reminiscent of the above two
Pretty decent director…
💯
4:10 he was about to say "You know Snoop's my nigga..." 😂
I was going to type that; you beat me to it
5:46-5:52
SHIDDD, Terry flipping pigeons was extremely memorable, especially if you're not from that region. You're like "whoa". That's cool they trained the pigeons to respond to their claps to put out a warning.
Chapter title says "Terry Cruz" 😐
Training Day is a monumental film. One of my favourite Americana directors ever.
I thought he was part of the hong kong invasion :D
Watched 5 times .never gets boring
Training Day is still Snoop’s best performance in a movie.
It's mufukkin CRACK muffukka!!😎
@@davedecker1725😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You’ve obviously never seen Old School. 🤣😂
Baby Boy he actually got to be an important character and act more so I’d say that’s the one.
@@davedecker1725that’s right Jimmy crack corn, 1 2 3 4 5…. Oh you federally fucked now
I was sold on this director immediately after watching Tears of the Sun, truly great stuff
His movies are consistently entertaining and worth the price of admission. I remember reading one of his interviews, and he mentioned how much he was influenced by old westerns, because his grandmother loved them and would make him watch them with her when he came over to visit. You can really see so much of that in a lot of his work.
Tears of the Sun is really underrated. Great movie.
movie would have been even better if the entertainment liaison office didnt change everything
OHH MAN GREAT MOVIE
@@sonofJurellOne of Bruce Willis great movies to me
Worth noting that Fuqua is ten years younger than Washington, and they first met over twenty years ago. *I'd* be intimidated too!
Training Day is one of my top 10 films of all time.
It's my favorite movie.
Rich Eisen is highly underrated... excellent interview
no lie
He was about to say you know snoop my nigga but he caught himself 😂
4:14 Antoine almost forgot where he was. Great director! Seems like a great man and friend as well.
Fuqua is an incredible director.
Agreed
Yes!
A badass director.
"I called Snoop. That's my n... that's my man."
Great save! 😁
My favorite Director of all time. He’s amazing ❤
What? Have you watched films before? If this man is your favourite director, then you need to have your eyes gouged out. I like his films but he is most certainly a mid-tier director at best. Broaden your horizons, watch other films, better films.
Sure he is. 😂
@@kh7688 I agree.
He's great with the types of films he does but he's not top tier.
He's id say top 25
He is dope af.
@@kh7688 She said "HER" favorite, not the best ever.
Not enough respect is put on The Replacement Killers. One of his best works.
checkmate
Chow Yun Fat is always worth watching
Johnnie To is the best living director@rontaylor5114
@rontaylor5114So who's the director of Oppenheimer?
Great underrated director , he makes great films
Lol. He almost said Snoop my nigga, but he caught himself
I caught that 2
“Wouldn’t get his teeth fixed” ahahah
What he said about getting Denzel should be the title.
4:11 Close call (pun intended) "Snoop's my..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Had to catch himself there
Everything this man's touched has ended up being a masterpiece.
Training Day
The Equalizer franchise and the remake of The Magnificent Seven.
So true, he's fantastic!!
@@joannabmarketing 💯
'Training Day' is a movie that made me EXTREMELY uncomfortable and nostalgic at the same time, first time I saw it. Im from "East of the River"/Wash-DC...born/raised. And after birth-parents separated, my old man went to NYC..and me and my Mom moved into the city of DC, from suburban MD, near Andrews AFB. About a yr after that move she met the guy who eventually became my stepdad. And he was LITERALLY a man of the streets. He had a legit job at the Smithsonian Instit....but the job that made him so much money, he was able to buy a 7 bedroom house on the waterfront in Annapolis with the vintage Silver Shadow-RR in the 4 car garage, was dope dealing.
and most weekends, he had me with him while he was 'handling his business'. So, I saw it all. And DC was a MUCH different city in those times..the 70s. Before crack became an epidemic, it was simply called "base" (short for freebase)..and my stepfather sold it..along with just about any and every other kind of drug you can name. But as it relates to this film, the memory that stood out the most to me, were the relationships he had with rogue cops. The apartment he dealt drugs from, was a first floor apt, right next to the entrance. And the low-life cops were so bold and crazy in those days, they would LITERALLY pull up in front of our building, and walk boldly in and out, like it was just second nature. That wouldnt mean anything to anyone, except for the fact that MANY times they were in uniform..as well as doing the undercover thing. Bottom line, they were picking up drugs from my stepdad, to sell ON THEIR OWN (and those cops were largely the undercover cops like Alonso)...and they were also SELLING their protection, for a price.
and whenever he knew they were coming to our place to get money from him, he would tell me and my brother, to leave the apt. My Mom, for the longest time, had no idea what he was up to. She didnt even know he kept the apt, after he bought the bigger home on the shore. She just thought when me and my brother were in the city with my stepfather, we were spending time with relatives or what have you. Suffice it to say, I saw cops JUST LIKE "Alonso"..and to be perfectly honest?...they tended to be MEANER than Alonso...and more brutal. I think he did an awesome job of portraying that kind of cop...but the only thing Denzel couldnt do as well as them, was BEING THEM.
They had more to lose, in several ways. So, there were FAR BRUTAL consequences that they dished out, when it involved the street people they mixed with on a daily basis. I saw a cop kill a man with a hammer, in the alley next to our apt building. And later on that evening when I asked my stepfather why he died, he said "because he was dishonest with the people that mattered". Thats how those guys lived. My stepfather is still alive and retired....never went to prison...and is living in Florida. My Mom left him, after she caught him dealing drugs from that same apt, 2 yrs after the cop killed that guy. And the thing that stuck out about her catching him, was the gun she put to his head, as she explained what she should do to him, regarding putting me and my brother in harm's way all those yrs. 'Training Day' is a microcosm of that lifestyle that many of us out here, lived or knew of, in an intimate way.
For them to wear the uniforms is quite telling of the level of widespread corruption and how commonplace and accepted it had to have been in the department at the time.
I am no longer suprised the more I read.
Thanks. Stay safe.
Sounds like you've lived a movie yourself. Good read.
Antoine Fuqua is a fantastic director!!! Such great movies! I enjoyed listening to him - never saw him interviewed. I like that he seemed down to earth and has a sense of humor.
Great interview as always, but at 4:12, Fuqua nearly slipped up lol.
Fuqua is a TITAN!
David Ayer was a big part off that movie ✍🏽 talented writer
Yeah he just did a long interview with Jon Bernthal for The Real Ones. They seem to take credit for a lot of the same things where Training Day is concerned. That dinner for example, both talk about it.
Very talented
04:11 "...that's my n..man" 😂😂
Great filmmaker. I love all of his movies. Thank you!
He almost said, "Snoop is my n... my man" good save😂
Other than Ethan, I've always thought that Dicaprio and Denzel would've been a good fit at that particular time. That was in 2001, just after "Titanic" and "The Beach" for Dicaprio and both of them would've probably been a great fit, Denzel as a seasoned cop and Leo as a naive yet capable rookie. Those Dicaprio eyes, just like with Ethan, always had that sense of danger in them so that casting would have probably worked out well also. Duel of stars in a way.
Leo shined bright in The Departed...it worked out
I agree🙂
Good call.
I definitely agree with you!!!!!!! Had it not been Ethan Leo would have been perfect
This man is a great director
Amazing director. Training Day hands down one of the best cop movies
Just watched Equalizer 3. Fabulous film. Pass it on.
Love these inside scoops!❤
I wish you would have ask Antoine about Chow Yun-Fat!
Antoine Fuqua is creating a great cinematic legacy. His movies and choices for who are in them is just incredible. "Training Day" was magnificent but a tough watch for me. Denzel's Oscar winning portrayal of "Alonzo" was so vibrant and tangible. Fuqua was also dead on about the "naive" personality of "Jake" played brilliantly by Ethan Hawke. They were both perfect for the lead roles. Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg added the finishing touch to a cinematic classic.
Legendary filmmaker
Facts
Nah, Training Day was good but rest of his films are mid
@@DrVonNostrandThe Magnificent 7 was another banger
I think he has people helping him 🤔
@@jamesjameson4566 what director doesn't
Great interview!
amazing interview rich !
Great interview ♡♡♡
Antoine Fuqua!!!
“I’m gonna put Snoop in a wheelchair…completely opposite of what they are”
Ain’t Snoop a crip tho?!
😂
lmaoooo yooo that was a good one
Training Day and the 3 equalizer movies, are his best work.
Dope interview
What a great man💯
There was tons of legendary cameo's on this who became big stars today.
Great filmmaker
Great director
Great director, and talented.❤❤
That movie he made with Eddie Murphy ex wife Nicole was good 👍🏾
Brooklyn’s Finest is solid.
Dr. Dre played that cop role on point.
one of my favourite directors of every fucking time
Now im wondering whos this lil kid he was talking about that was in Southpaw too
Love this movie
Snoop that's my .... Snoop my man. (lol)
Malcolm Mays from Raising Kanan and Snowfall is who he’s talking about!
that was a gritty movie!
“I called Snoop that’s my Ni…….that’s my Man” You can take the boy out the hood but you can’t take the hood out the boy
Fuqua is the best!!
"About Dogg is my.... my man." Quick correction my dude.
You caught too.....😂
I like this guy.
4:14 Snoops my nigga...was what he wanted to say...lol
giving people chances, thats beautiful
I still can't believe he was in Ghost Dog
4:15 He almost said "snoops my nicca"😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
such a good movie
Not gonna mention Macy? She's better than the other "cameos"
People still think that guy is Forrest Whitaker's son?
😂😂😂 you're joking right? Macy Gray was garbage in this. She somewhat redeemed herself in Idlewild
Wow! Still amazed it's a cool story 😎
Geez! Didn’t realize Dre was in that movie!! Only realizing it now
He caught himself 😂he almost said snoop is my 🥷🤣🤣
This man surprise me for making Olympus has fallen thats a hell of an action film
i remember when Denzel won the Oscar for Training Day...the general comments were that the academy was appeasing him for his loss in 93, playing Malcolm X.
but, even back then I knew that Denzel gave the BETTER performance as Alonzo Harris than he did as Malcolm X.
Not only he deserved the win, this role turned out to be one of the best, most iconic movie roles of any actors, dead or alive.
Nah, Malcom X was something else and means way much more to the Black community.
@@Salah-fq2wi the MOVIE, yeah sure...
I was talking ABOUT the PERFORMANCE.
But, if U think his performance was better in that, that's fine too... but that's just YOUR opinion... like what i said was MY opinion.
He ALMOST CALLED SNOOP HIS "n!gga" AND I WOULD HAVE ALLOWED IT!!!👑👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
No credit to David Ayer for writing ✍🏻 and giving us TRAINING DAY ? David’s a real O.G. He’s brilliant. He also gave us Fast and Furious, Fury and Harsh Times.
It was a stupid film.
ok
And street kings
@@chris-wt7ol 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The black guy always got to shout out the white guy to have any real relevance, right???
He was about to say snoop my n lol caught himself
Tears of The Sun is a Top 20 Movie
Love Denzel, E2 stunk.
That "Snoop is my Ni..." and then he corrected himself. Antoine really from the streets
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
RIP Bone
Don't forget he starred in black hawk down
Who is the guy he is talking about at 6:31 who played in Southpaw and Training Day
Who's the actor/filmmaker that he was talking about at the end? Did anyone find out?
What a cool t-shirt, anyone know what that is?
you a long way from starbucks homie!
Give this man his flowers.
I was looking for this comment. And not because I agree, but because it’s something EVERYONE keeps saying: “give him their flowers” 😂 Y’all hear a catchy phrase or word and use it till the wheels falls off. No original thought or comments. Just birds repeating words.
@fellowdanbarber3323 When an ignoramus uses an incorrect term such as "y'all" that person is immediately disqualified from scrutinising what another person writes.
E for effort!
Antoine Fuqua is the greatest black director! Spike Lee doesn't come close!!!
*Just Pre-Ordered the steelbook of Equalizer 3 off Zavvi. Hope they don't screw me over like they have done several times in recent months.*
Ethan is the best in the bizz
Need a sequel to Training Day, but this time Jake is the corrupted cop due to unforeseen circumstances
That would be fire
Love that idea but Jake doesn’t realize he turned into Alonzo.
@@hahandroo exactly!
You guys are on to something 😂
Well, Ethan Hawke already played that role in Brooklyn's Finest, which was also directed by Fuqua, so I think that was his way of broadening his acting chops and playing the antithesis of a young naive cop.
Dear Antoine, please inform me of your next shooting spot, I'll be there.
Nobody like me curious to who he talking about at the end?
Rich credits Terry Crews as being a cameo when he was an extra at the time but yet he skips over the other major cameo which was Macy Gray.
Brooklyn's Finest could've been just as good if the suits would've given him more creative freedom
Snoops my N... Snoops my MAN! 😂
