Sometimes the subject of a biopic can change their mind about their movie after a few years of reflection. Such is the case of Frank Abagnale, whose incredible story.

Biopics That Were HATED By Their Subjects. The biopic is one of Hollywood’s oldest genres, going back to early- 2. Beethoven, Cleopatra, and General Custer. As time went on, biopics began to tackle more recent subjects, sometimes being based on events that happened only a few years prior to the release of the film.

In fact, there are even a few unique cases where people had the opportunity to just go ahead and play themselves in movies based on their lives, such as Howard Stern (Private Parts), Muhammad Ali (The Greatest), and Audie Murphy (To Hell and Back). Not surprisingly, as actors started playing real life people that were still around and could weigh in on how they were being portrayed by Hollywood, the reaction wasn’t always positive. Very few of us will ever know what it’s like to see an actor play us in a movie and watch them going through fictionalized versions of significant events in our lives, so it’s tough to find fault with people criticizing actors and movies that don’t get things quite right. Unfortunately, that sometimes goes with the territory of being a public figure, and you don’t always get much– if any– say in who is going to play you, how they’re going to play you, or what Hollywood liberties are going to be taken with events that you actually lived through. Here are 1. 5 Biopics That Were Hated By Their Subject. All Eyez On Me – Jada Pinkett- Smith.

All Eyez on Me, the biopic about the life and career of late rapper Tupac Shakur, was a troubled production that saw many issues on its journey to theaters– including the highly publicized exit of original director John Singleton. Post- release, the movie was met with mostly negative reviews and a fairly tepid box office performance. It wasn’t just critics who disliked the film, though. Jada Pinkett- Smith, who was a lifelong friend of Shakur going back to the days before he was famous, took to Twitter to express her disappointment in how the movie depicted her and her relationship with the rapper. Beyond taking issue with the movie completely changing key moments between the pair, including manufacturing a dramatic goodbye that Smith says never happened, Smith called the entire portrayal of their friendship in the film “deeply hurtful.”However, Smith also made sure to point out that she harbors no ill will toward the actress who played her in the movie (Kat Graham), praising her performance and saying she did the best job she could’ve done with the material she was given. Catch Me If You Can – Frank Abagnale.

Sometimes the subject of a biopic can change their mind about their movie after a few years of reflection. Such is the case of Frank Abagnale, whose incredible story of fun, fraud, and forgery in the ’6. Catch Me If You Can starring Leonardo Di. Caprio. Initially, Abagnale had a positive reaction to the film, even praising some of the changes that were made– for instance, in real life, Abagnale never saw his father again after running away from home as a teenager. But the movie depicts Abagnale continuing to have a relationship with his father throughout his capers and frames his desire to please his father as the catalyst for much of his adventurers. Abagnale loved the idea, admitting that he thought about his parents daily and would’ve loved to reconnect with his father. As time went on, though, Abagnale began to sour on the movie.

A few years ago, he began to publicly express regret about the film being made, saying that he isn’t proud of the things he did during those years and hates that they have been immortalized– and glamorized– in movie form. Patch Adams – Dr. Hunter “Patch” Adams. While a box office success, critics were very hard on the Robin Williams comedy Patch Adams, which told the story of a real- life doctor who uses humor and clown costumes to help ease the suffering of his patients. Reviews used words like “dopey,” “shameless,” and “obnoxious” to describe not only the movie itself, but Williams’ performance as the titular physician. But nobody was harder on Patch Adams than the real “Patch” Adams, who was angry at how the film only focused on the comedic elements of his practice and didn’t spend much time on more important things like his activism work or struggle to build a free hospital.

Adams also went in on Williams in particular, blasting the actor for making $2. After Williams died in 2. Adams’ opinions of the actor softened considerably. He recalled Williams’ kindness, both to the cast and crew of the film and to Adams and his family, and acknowledged that the movie did help to bring awareness to his work. The Blind Side – Michael Oher. On its surface, The Blind Side tells an uplifting real- life story about a troubled African American youth (Michael Oher) who was rescued from a potential life of crime by a generous family and was eventually drafted by the NFL.

It even earned Sandra Bullock an Oscar for her portrayal of Oher’s adoptive mother. However, many people accused the movie of perpetuating the “white savior” trope, in which it is implied that a black person would never be able to make it without the help of a saintly white person. Oher himself has also expressed his displeasure with the film and the way it portrays him, taking issue with how “simple” the movie makes him seem.

The NFL linebacker, who currently plays for the Carolina Panthers and has a Super Bowl win under his belt, has also complained the the movie has complicated his career, causing people to scrutinize him far more closely than other players simply because the film brought him extra attention and recognition. Oher wants his NFL accomplishments to stand on their own merits, and not be judged by people based on what they think they know about him and his life as depicted in a movie. Notorious – Lil’ Kim. Notorious, the biopic made about rapper Christopher Wallace– aka The Notorious B. I. G.– has among its producers mother Voletta Wallace, and longtime friend and collaborator Sean “Diddy” Combs. So it might seem as though the movie is a lot more honest and accurate than it might have been had it had little to no involvement from some of the people who knew him best.

As it turns out, the film does completely misrepresent one of the people in Wallace’s life, at least according to that person– rapper Lil’ Kim. Kim was critical of the movie before filming even began, saying that she was given very little opportunity to give her input on her role in Wallace’s life.

After seeing the film, her fears that it would get things all wrong were apparently justified, as the rapper complained that the movie seemed to be based more on her on- stage persona than her as a person, presenting more of a caricature than a fully- developed human being. Wallace’s mother, Voletta, didn’t take too kindly to Kim’s backlash, saying that the movie isn’t about her. Diddy expressed a similar sentiment, saying that although Kim has a right to be angry, it’s Biggie’s movie, not hers.

The Late Shift – David Letterman. Based on the book of the same name, the 1. HBO film The Late Shift tells the story of longtime Tonight Show host Johnny Carson retiring, and the battle between Jay Leno and David Letterman to take over his spot. A common criticism of the movie is that it portrays Leno as something of an innocent bystander to his manager Helen Kushnick’s bullying and at times unethical fight on his behalf to get him the coveted hosting gig.

The real Helen Kuschnick would go on to bring a libel lawsuit against the movie’s producers. Kushnick wasn’t the only person who had a problem with the movie, though.

David Letterman criticized the film in a way that only he could, saying it was “the biggest waste of film since [his] wedding photos.” He also wasn’t kind to actor Michael Higgins, who portrayed him in the movie, saying that Higgins’ performance made him look like a “psychotic chimp.”Higgins claimed as recently as 2.

Why Your Team Sucks 2. Green Bay Packers. Watch Stargate Season 9 Episode 20. Some people are fans of the Green Bay Packers.

But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Green Bay Packers. This 2. 01. 7 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Read all the previews so far here. Your team: Green Bay Packers. Your 2. 01. 6 record: 1. Yep, you wasted another year of Aaron Rodgers’s prime.

You are Atlanta Braves- ing him. Suck it. How do you have Aaron Rodgers and fall behind 3. NFC title game?. Your coach: Mike Mc. Carthy. That’s how.

He’s still here, and Dom Capers is still the defensive coordinator. Until the day you people die (and it’s coming soon; I’ve seen the way you eat), you will be stuck with Beav calling isolation plays with his 1.

Capers orchestrating a defense that only looks good against any offense that can’t play offense. I can’t believe you got beaten senseless by the Skins.

Your quarterback: Aaron Rodgers. How come you never call you mother anymore, Aaron? Every year, the Packers go through a rough patch (last year’s example being a four- game skid and a 4- 6 start) and you can rest assured that’s enough to cause every last idiot Packers fan to lose their shit and wonder if it’s the end of an era. Go here if you don’t believe me. They’ll probably still blame every Rodgers slump this year on Olivia Munn even though those two aren’t fucking each other anymore. What’s new that sucks: LOL who are you kidding?

It’s the Packers. They do nothing. Ted Thompson spends the entire offseason napping in a barcalounger. True, they brought in Martellus Bennett to replace Jared Cook, and they grabbed Jahri Evans to help make up for the loss of T. J. Lang, and they cut Eddie Lacy for being the weight of your average season ticket holder, but come on. Everything the Packers do is to ensure model consistency, so that Rodgers will spend another season running for his life before the team ultimately shits down its own throat in the playoffs. They can’t keep anyone healthy. Half the team will spend all winter in that sideline medic igloo.

The only receiver who doesn’t go through Pleistocene- length cold stretches is Jordy Nelson and he’s a fragile little white man with hair like a seal pelt. For real, I’m shocked Jordy hasn’t been clubbed by a hunter and mounted on the wall of a Rhinelander log cabin. Their best running back is a converted wideout and their second- best running back is an actual wideout. They’ll both get hurt and Mc. Carthy will still try to “establish the run” 2. The cornerbacks are abominable. Clay Matthews still has a tiny face and I hate him.

YOU’RE NOT THOR, BUDDY. What has always sucked: This is the part where, as ethics require, I must disclose that I am a Vikings fan (or Vi. Queens, as Green Bay fans so cleverly put it), and that the Packers DISGUST me with their never- ending, small- town, Thornton Wilder horseshit. Look at these assholes: These are the dumbest fans in the NFL. It’s not close. Ask any other fan of any other team who the stupidest fans they’ve ever encountered are, and they will tell you: Green Bay. Every fan is a 3.

This is the only franchise where fans have more brain damage than the former players. If you’re unfortunate enough to be stuck near a Packers fan, you will be subjected to hours of cheese breath and contradicting takes about players they aren’t even aware are no longer on the roster. Any time the Packers win by fewer than 2. I guarantee you that Rodgers hates every waking second he has to be in Green Bay. Who wouldn’t? Apart from the Packers, the most exciting thing that happens in Green Bay is when the local Chili’s offers a new drink special. The fans are dumber than styrofoam and the media is even worse: This is your model NFL team.

This is every last FOOTBALL IS FAMILY lie tucked into one fanbase and handed a stack of forged ownership certificates. This is the Notre Dame of the NFL. Every time Rodgers completes some bullshit Hail Mary (goddammit, opposing teams, bat the ball down), every Packers fans may as well cry out WAKE UP THE ECHOES and jerk off into their mittens. These people think they’re magic. They think they’re SPECIAL. They think they deserve all these great quarterbacks and neat football action that they’ve been arbitrarily handed by a Blind God.

They think they’re the American idyll. They are not. They’re humps. Frauds. Narcissists. SHITBAGS. They are emblematic of a very specific kind of American reverse dysmorphic disorder, where you look in the mirror and see some All- American stud instead of the sad, worthless asshole you really are. I’d rather cut myself than live like a Packers fan, sitting around my whole life waiting for some podunk team to do something exciting so that I can leech off their success because I myself can barely move.

GO TO HELL. I’m not bitter. I’m not bitter at all. WHY DIDN’T ANYONE TACKLE ANTONIO FREEMAN WHEN HE GOT UP?! Did you know? Ty Montgomery started out as a wideout before the team discovered running back was his natural position. Get ready to hear that 4,0. What might not suck: Nothing. Fuck you. And fuck Paul Ryan with a tree.

HEAR IT FROM PACKERS FANS! Nic: You can straight up see in Rodgers’ expression how sad he is to be playing for skinny Andy Reid. Stephen: WHY THE FUCK IS DOM CAPERS STILL HERE Andrew: Wisconsin is the Arkansas of the Midwest, and Green Bay is its Hot Springs. Karl: Our defense made Blake Bortles look like a good quarterback. Landon: Mike Mc. Carthy and the Packers fan base effectively fat- shamed Eddie Lacy out of Wisconsin, and that is ironic for all of the obvious reasons. Matt: Their yearly rash of injuries to important players seems to stem from the fact that their training staff confuses hamstrings with ham sandwiches. Molly: I now head into the playoffs wondering what new, unique way my soul will be crushed in the NFC Divisional or Championship game.

Nate: The Packers suck because month- old tuna fish sandwiches left out to sop in a puddle of excrement are infinitely more fresh than whatever Dom Capers has cookin’ up, and we all know it. Aaron: I can’t decide if I want to write a screed against the entitled part of the fanbase that whines incessantly about not winning a championship every year, or if I want to rail against the team for seeming content to be the third- best team in the NFC every year. Jesse: Dom Capers. David: A regular jar of capers could coach better than Dom Capers. Justin: Capers has a lower approval rating among Packer fans than Trump at a Black Lives Matter rally held in Mexico.

Grant: I texted a couple of friends at 2: 5. Sunday of the NFC title game saying “I’ve never felt more confident in a Packers playoff win.” The game started at 3: 0. The game was over by 4: 0.

NSP: Every Packers season features about 8 life- altering plays courtesy of Aaron Rodgers and a continual sense of dread on how they’re going to piss away yet another year of his prime without another Super Bowl appearance. Zach: At some point this quarterback streak is going to end and it will be all “if only’s” and “what if’s” as we inevitably go back to 8. Packer incompetence. Elijah: Any Packers fan under the age of 3. At least half of these “best fans in the league” will bail just as soon as Aaron Rodgers leaves. Fuck Brandon Bostick. Rick: Packers playoff losses just leave me dead inside.

I don’t even get angry. I move so quickly behind the white hot rage of the cavalcade of failure that I just turn off my television and stare at the black mirror until someone tells me the game is over, at which point I sulk so badly for the rest of the night my toddler thinks I’m being dramatic.

I’m from Boise, Idaho. I have never been to Wisconsin. I’m fairly certain that living far away from Wisconsin and never having been there places me in the vast majority of Packers fans. Ty: The Dom Capers Defense consists of letting the other team score 3. Aaron Rodgers performs literal miracles on the football field to tie the game up at the two minute warning. Katie: Aaron Rodgers will die with one Super Bowl ring.
