Rep Power: 11  |  50 movie pulled from Pa
 Quote:
A man was shot and killed Wednesday night (Nov. 9) at the Loews Waterfront movie theater in Homestead, Pennsylvania, after viewing 50 Cent’s new movie, "Get Rich or Die Tryin’. "
Shelton Flowers, 30, was shot after a confrontation between him and three other men in the movie theater's bathroom.
According to reports, Shelton had just left the 9:00pm showing of 50 Cent’s semi-autobiographical film.
Flowers was shot in the thigh and chest and died later at UPMC Presbyterian hospital.
The three men fled and witnesses have yet to come forward despite a sizable crowd for a Wednesday night.
An off-duty officer was in the building, but the assailants were able to escape when Flowers collapsed in front of the officer.
The movie has been pulled from the Waterfront Theater until homicide detectives complete their case.
“This isn't the first time violence broke out at [that] Loews's theater,” a local resident told AllHipHop.com. “If you ask me Loews doesn't have enough security for the neighborhood it’s in. It’s sitting right in the middle of three different hoods. Rankin, Braddock and Homestead…I'm not a 50 Cent fan, but they shouldn't ban a movie just because violence broke out. They should do a better job of overseeing a safe and fun environment.”
Advertisements depicting 50 Cent holding two guns caused outrage in several U.S. cities before being released.
Billboard advertisements were pulled in various cities, including Los Angeles and Philadelphia.
In related news, Mike Navarre, the police chief of Toledo, Ohio asked the National Amusements movie theater chain to pull the movie as well, fearing the flick could incite more violence.
Last month, a riot broke out in the city over a planned neo-Nazi march, which was canceled. The movie chain denied Navarre's request but said they would not show the movie at any of the midnight showings.
Navarre said there would be extra security during the film's showing.

the problem for the shooting wasnt because of the movie, it was because of black people. | |

If this wasnt the most predictable unrealistic film ever... then shoot me... seriously... only people that like this are his silly lil fans that would rather see a black man with a gun than a brain.. further the reason why 50 cent is the biggest slave in the world.. someone else that exposes America'a stupidity (I saw this shite on pirate before some asshole defends 50 and devalues my opinion) American black people are so different from ever other black person in the rest of the world... thats something I've picked up interacting with different nationalities... ya'll still think your American, Defending it like its your true home... fucking ignorent fools. | |
