00:00All right, cool, um, actually, let me ask you guys, just looking back over all the last
00:26two movies, and, um, and even just this last, you know, the series, is there anything you
00:31guys remember, what's, what's some of your favorite memories from all of that?
00:36I love the scene where we're, is it ayahuasca?
00:39Oh, the ayahuasca, yes.
00:41I love that.
00:43Is that, is that a spoiler?
00:44Can I talk about that?
00:45I said, oh, okay.
00:48Another scene, though, that I go from the first one is that slap.
00:53Oh, that was my fault.
00:56What was that?
00:57That was my fault.
00:58Because y'all were shooting, y'all were working.
01:01You and Nia was working, and I came over to you guys, and I was like, I don't believe none
01:06of that shit.
01:06Whatever y'all are doing is, is, is just crazy.
01:10You know, you're not connecting.
01:10I remember you doing that.
01:12Y'all are not connecting.
01:13But you were kidding, though.
01:14No, I was dead serious.
01:15And Nia was like, how dare you come over and say that, and, and, don't come and give me
01:21notes.
01:22Don't give me no notes, and da, da, da, and so I go back, and I'm watching it.
01:25And then the scene happens, and she lit.
01:31That was not in the script.
01:33Lit into you.
01:34Lit him up.
01:35Full on.
01:36Lit him up.
01:37And hopped up.
01:37No warning.
01:38Yeah.
01:39How about that?
01:40Exactly.
01:41Yeah, yeah.
01:42So I think we all antagonize each other.
01:44All I could do was go, whoo!
01:46And that was real, right?
01:47Yes, it was.
01:48I didn't know what you were going to do.
01:49Because I thought Malcolm was going to us cut.
01:51Uh-huh.
01:52And he didn't cut.
01:53And I remember thinking, oh, what is going on in this set?
01:57It's so unprofessional.
01:58You know what I mean?
01:59But it wasn't until afterwards that I realized that it was a really great moment, and it
02:03made that scene.
02:05Everyone on a holiday, they talk about the dance scene.
02:09You know?
02:09Oh, us.
02:10Us dancing.
02:11Yeah, they like that.
02:12They did.
02:13And what I remember, and I always laugh whenever I see the scene, because, of course, you know,
02:18Tay and Harold, y'all were the, Tay and Harold, the dancers.
02:21And I was like, yo, Malcolm, when are we going to rehearse?
02:23When are we going to rehearse?
02:24And every time we're going to rehearse, T. Howard wasn't going to rehearse.
02:27And I was real nervous about it.
02:29You were.
02:30I was like, yo, can we just rehearse when we can get together?
02:32And Tay and Harold was like, oh, yeah.
02:34They had to dance in two seconds.
02:36And then when we had to do it, but what makes you laugh the most is that, and it worked,
02:41when T. Howard didn't come to practice, but he's doing, you're doing the old Michael Jackson.
02:45His own thing.
02:46You're doing your own thing.
02:48Yeah.
02:49So when you had to.
02:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:51We were like, what is it?
02:54Exactly.
02:55They made it work.
02:57All the good old days.
02:58We made the freaking moment.
03:00We did.
03:00Yeah, we did.
03:02And watching, when I was talking to one of the reporters, I asked him, I said, what was,
03:07how did the film affect you?
03:10And he was like, dude, now I'm like 13 watching it, and now I know that I can become an ad executive.
03:18I never questioned it.
03:19He saw this as the normality because we presented it.
03:23Oh, I can go and run a business.
03:26It showed them who we were on the global perspective, and it taught us something, because I was told up until then that we didn't have any value on the international market.
03:39And for me, I remember, because at the time, I was auditioning for Gangsta No. 1, Gangsta No. 2.
03:47It was the gang genre at the time, and of course I wasn't getting them.
03:51And then this was just so refreshing to see us all, you know, as young, successful black people on the screen.
04:00Yes.
04:00Handsome.
04:01You know, we've had our press days and everything, and everyone says, what do you think about it being the final chapters, putting the button on this and the bow and letting that be it?
04:11How do you feel about it?
04:12I'm not convinced it's over, personally.
04:14You're not?
04:15No.
04:16Maybe it will be, but I'm not approaching it like that, just because, you know, depending on how well this does, who knows what's going to happen.
04:24And I just hate goodbyes. This franchise has meant so much to me and my life and the career. You guys were like my first kind of Hollywood friends. And it really set the bar. So to kind of have it come to an end and, you know, not have the possibility of us hanging out again, that's daunting. So I'm just going to kind of leave it where it is.
04:52See, I think we're going to hang out a whole lot more together now, you know, recognizing the rarity of these long extended relationships. I was talking to the girls and I told Melissa, I was like, out of the 25 years we've all been together, not one of us have ever had an argument where we've raised our voice to each other.
05:15But what do you think about it being the final chapter, if this is the final chapter?
05:18Well, it frightens me because everyone keeps saying that and therefore they must know that maybe all life is about to come to an end on this planet for them to keep saying the final chapters and everything is an omen.
05:33You know, I told you seven times and you see the wave, you know, all these little omens. I'm like, okay, if this is the last day, man, it's been great to hang with y'all.
05:43I love spending this last day with y'all.
05:46All right. Love y'all.
05:48Love y'all, man. Appreciate it.
05:49To the best man.
05:49To the best man.
05:51The final chapters.
05:54Merch.
05:54Yeah, for merch, too.
05:55Get merch up in here.
05:56Pull that off my homies.
05:58Yeah.
