All the controversy after this movie....

The funny thing is they left out a LOT.

That whole episode with the "Missing Left Eye"
Usher
The fact that Andre had hit Lisa
T Boz being married (It just seemed like she randomly had a baby, unless I blinked?)
Acting (some of the films they made)
Did they mention Left Eye's daughter?
Much, much more.

I'm just thinking that there was so much they couldn't put everything, which goes to your idea of a longer movie.

I'm not sure about Crystal though. The story of how she got kicked out of the (actually, "her") group have been floating around for two decades, and now she wants to set the record straight? It also seems like there was an issue with editing; Some things were shown or implied but not elaborated upon. All in all, I think the movie could have been better, but I still like it :) Left Eye was always my fave, and I could see the tension within the group (not referring to the things that were publicly addressed), so it was nice to see that confirmed and that I wasn't crazy (my friends said that I was crazy and read too much into stuff, but it was pretty obvious to me...The movie showed how a lot of that stuff played out on camera. Plus there are a lot of interviews on YT where you can sense that there may be some discord).

You're so cool Brewster!

It doesn't surprise me at all. The one I find most annoying is Pebbles. She let them down back in the day - damage done. All these years later and she becomes a "minister" and releases a gospel album - cool. But to take to Twitter and threaten lawsuits via social media? Immature and tacky and shows she hasn't grown that much in the past 2 decades. I would think a woman truly of God would handle it in a professional manner, if they would care to even handle it at all.

She's showing her hand and that's not helping her slander case.

Pebbles trying to get her 15 minutes of fame again and sue TLC

I don't like Pebbles for ripping off tlc,but she'd look even more suspect if she didn't respond to the movie at all. I doubt the chick is trying to 'get 15 minutes' she's not in the industry anymore. As far as Crystal,you'd probably respond the same way she is if somebody made you look like an irrelevant retard on a national tv.

I agree the movie should have been like the Temptations/Jacksons stretched out over a few nights and in more detail. On Keke Palmer's 'Breakfast club 105.1' interview,she said the tlc movie was originally shorter than what was aired,but they decided to add more to the script at the last minute. Gotdamn was that *beep* going to be a 30 minute sitcom?
