Houston's Bun B wants to see Ice-T's 'Something From Nothing' with you

    Bun B wants YOU to see this movieBun B wants YOU to see this movieUPDATE: Due to overwhelming response, Bun B has decided to attend a second screening on Saturday although no details have been released.

    Bun posted on Facebook saying, "We are just gonna do both! See you today at 2:10 and we'll do something Saturday as well! pass it on..."

    Want to watch a movie with a rapper?

    Houston's own Bun B is inviting the entire city (or as many people the theater can hold) to watch Ice-T's film 'Something From Nothing: The Art of Rap' showing at 2:10 today at Edwards Theatre located at 3839 Weslayan.

    Bun posted the open invitation on Twitter and Facebook with the message "Let's sell it out and support and Hip Hop!"

    Word has spread quickly; both messages have been retweeted and shared countless times.

    Arrive early, grab some popcorn and enjoy the flick. Maybe you'll get lucky and sit next to the Trill OG himself.

    Thanks for the heads up so I can block my driveway before someone too cheap to pay the $2 parking blocks it.....

    That's actually funny because I am one of those to cheap to pay the $3 (not $2) to park there. I can't believe the immediate neighbors were successful in getting "no parking" zones established across Weslayan. Come on - you live a block or two from 59!

    Its a beautiful thing, I don't have to watch the inconsiderate idiots leaving trash in my neighbors' yard, being loud late at night, and generally lowering my enjoyment of my neighborhood, but please fell free to invite everyone to park in front of you house......

    Maybe you should close your shades and hide under the bed too....scary folk about. Its a big world out there chief

    ahhhh, from the lips of someone who has no knowledge on the subject, thanks for your input, move along now....

    Maybe you should move to the country? It's not like you didn't know your area of town was busy and overflowing with cars and idiots.

    Texmex01 Thu, 06/21/2012 - 2:00pm

    ahh, but I did know where I was moving to , way before the theater was built, and the owners decided to charge people to park which "forced" them to become the neighborhoods problem......

    Yuck! Go away with this crap already! Quit trying to make Houston into Atlanta!

    I won't be able to be there since I have to work. I hope the movie does well.

    i cant believe that someone who looks as rediculous as Bun B taught a course at Rice.

    Swat8 Thu, 06/21/2012 - 12:20pm

    He probably knows how to spell "ridiculous." I feel it is "ridiculous" that people are still being judged by the way they look. Glad Rice officials (and others) were able to look past his profession and see the man behind the entertainment and what he can bring to the table.

    UGK4LIFE? OK, if by "4 life", you mean overdosing on a lethal combination of cough syrup and flinstone's chewable vitamins, at age 32, then OK, UGK4LIFE, albeit a short one.

    ...the saying: Don't judge a book by its cover comes to mind.

    TW Thu, 06/21/2012 - 12:38pm

    You know nothing about Rice. Please refrain from other such silly comments. Thanks.

    Gee Thu, 06/21/2012 - 12:39pm

    Well stated SWAT8.

    Read the book before judging by the cover.

    ...wondering how many will be shot and if it'll take place in the theater or the $3 parking garage....
