Please, Spike Lee... "Do the Right Thing":
Cuba Gooding Jr. is the best choice for that James Brown role! He looks like James Brown... He was kind of a boxer, his father was a singer and he also knows how to sing. And on top of that, he's a great actor! And don't say he's too old for that role (Hollywood makes miracles with makup, digital FX, 3D Maya, whatever... you name it!) "Malcom X" director is a smart guy, so... ... Let's vote to Cuba "James Brown" Jr!
