I don't suppose you'll like this response, but first of all success is a pretty broad term.  I don't think that DoRo videos were seen by millions because DoRo were revolutionary directors or editors.  They were seen by millions because they worked for Queen.

Being hypothetical for a second, if Queen had hired another team to do their documentary stuff or music videos or interviews ... whatever you like - would we know who the Torpedo Twins even were?  That is, of course, assuming they wouldn't have gone to work for U2 instead.  Heh.

As already stated, I'm Going Slightly Mad was fun and creative. I feel this should have been our Freddie's last video instead of TATDOOL. He had enough make-up on to hide behind, unlike TATDOOL where he still looks terrible inspite of the make-up artist's best efforts and the B&W video. The whole video has a gloomy feel, not like Freddie would have wanted.

Mmmm...  given ten years hindsight, that might have been his opinion.  I think the video is probably what Freddie would have wanted though, considering he was still alive when it was made.

This is why I would like a GVH3 DVD.  It would be nice to know a bit of the background of the Innuendo videos; they're among my favourite Queen videos.  If not too much space on the DVD is taken up by Wyclif Jean and Elton John, who knows - we might get some decent special features.

Bowie's response to Rudi in our Freddie's tribute concert documentary was funny. Infact I liked this documentary better than the actual concert even :-D

I agree with this.  I didn't like the musical direction much in the concert itself, but in the behind the scenes stuff you get quite a palpable sense of just how much the musicians appreciated Freddie and Queen.

Do you think success means all for an artist? So Tokio Hotel and The Jonas Brothers are great just because they are successfull.
Also, I agree with Zebonka: if they are known, is just because they work for Queen. They are not like Scorcese doing a film for  The Rolling Stones: in that case, the two artists are respected and famous.

Returning to the first discussion about DoRo, I think that details like finding out the correct date from the b/w interviews were part of their job, and they didn't do it well. Also, I think their videos (for Queen, I don't know their others works in their career) are so repetitive and predectible: for example, Too Much Love Will Kill You video has the same idea of The Show Must Go On one, but they are the same idea for all (or the major part)Queen Rocks Video too. 
By the way, I think Rare Live is the worst thing they have done: there are so much fake info about dates and audience, that it "makes my eyes bleed".

Bring on GVH III on DVD already !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's time...AND it's late anyway !

Jesus this guy Zebonka is a shmuck. 

He really is. 

People don't come here anymore all because of this guy.

I'll be honest man, I gotta disagree with you, Zebonka has said some things that I'm not exactly crazy about; but I certainly don't think he's a detriment to this site's forums. That simply isn't fair, you would have to rule out a majority of the veterans here (I'm a guilty party, but I'm no veteran on here) that just love to be cynical, and they have their own jokes and what not. If you think Zebonka is a troll, do you want to know who a troll is that makes Zebonka look like nothing? Try Treasure Moment and it's "members." I had another account on here a long time ago, and I left because I got sick of their bullshit, and a couple of other users...& because they're so damned annoying anytime they get on some freaky tangent about Freddie sporting a sidepipe, and how it turned them on, or how they would outdo Freddie's groupies from the infamous 'New Orleans party' theres a few that just lace into 'em and let them have it.

If you really hate Zebonka or something, that's your deal, and not my problem. But I'm telling you, Zebonka isn't the one turning away people from here.

I would have commented on Nester before, but I foolishly hoped he would go away ... of course ... trolls never leave graciously ... that is you Nester.

As a militant gay, you have taken this too far with your personal attacks.

Zebonka is not politically correct ... So what?  Get over it already.

Go write another book, leave Queenzone alone, and stop with your phony "tortured gay knight" act.

What?  You mean people exercising their freedom of choice at Zebonka exercising his freedom of speech?

If it offends you so much why don't you fuck off to China then

It's like a post I saw the other day suggesting that discussions about "TCR" should be nothing but a love in, and negative/hostile comments about AN ALBUM were tantamount to treason.

Ahahaha.

Now I know he's kidding.

Oh, now I am a troll?  That's rich. 

Idiots will be idiots.

Well, your behaviour in this thread does fit the definition you so craftily acquired from Wikipedia.

I don't mind being called a troll if it serves your purposes, but keep in mind I'm a troll who has somehow found the time to take part in more constructive threads than you have, of late. 

Adieu!

Congrats. Your 8071th post.

This is ridiculous.  It's like staying in the ring after you've had your ear bitten off, Nester...  but if you want to count posts, there's a couple of people here with higher post counts than me.  Why on earth you've picked this as a new hobby is beyond me, it seems even more obscure than trainspotting, but cool beans!  Enjoy!

PS.  In order to 'stick it to the man' you've become what you protest against most vehemently; a troll.  Bravo sir!
