Ice Cube... the guy helped write Straight out of Compton and F*ck the Police and now he's doing light family comedies and inspirational movies. I Love 'Merica!

By his son I mean the guy who played Kotter originally.

Archie (can I call you AH-Chee?) probabl the same people that went to see a movie like Are we (word) Yet? Tangentially, I just looked at the wiki entry for Ice Cube and he's slated to play Mr. Kotter in a 2009 movie rendition of the series. They could've at least picked like, David Cross or something who played his son in the somewhat funny movie "The Grand".

I hope this movie does not get confused with the great foosball movie "Longshot" starring one Leif Garrett, circa 1981. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082676/ :-)

This movie looks absolutely terrible. Seriously, who would go watch this?
