DLC, I've downloaded from Eagle Rock's website and watched without subtitles... I guess we'll stay without the documentary here in Brazil. Unfortunately.

I had to go to that torrent site with a pirate ship and download it in 1080p.
It looked so promising that I almost preordered it online... Until the memories of Champions of the World, Lover of Life, and all endless official documentaries came to my mind... And Im glad I didnt bought it.
About 10 mins (or less) of new footage mixed in the same stuff we already have on previous releases...

I have not got the dvd yet but after watching the tv programme last night i will be purchasing it, its surprising that when you think you have already seen loads of queen/freddie interviews and stuff that more unseen stuff comes up, was fascinating to watch

Please tell me, this film has English subtitles?
subtitles - it is a good help to those not English as a native language.

Hey there,
it was broadcasted on BBCone 3 days ago and I liked it very much. It was nice to see some making of of the I Want To Break Free video. The Royal Ballet appearance was there in much better quality and longer then ever and we saw Mercury singing "My Melancholy Blues" in the studio, that was fantastic. It was great to hear Montsy's point of view, too and that Jacko brought a Lama into the studio that made Freddie quit working on with him. This is the most funny content beside the One Vision outtakes.
Btw. when there's so much material (outtakes and making of) of the Flix why not bringing it to DVD for box compilation?
kind regards

Hi David,
no, it is not available in the usual spanish stores, wich is really incredible. I ordered it at Amazon.es and suggest you do the same. In a few days you´ll have it delivered at a reasonable price.

I got to watch the whole thing this week and thoroughly enjoyed it. I definitely saw more of "Freddie" than I've ever really seen before. And while I've probably seen a lot of the footage, clips, etc. This docu puts it all together in such a way, as to tell a proper story of his latter life. It's certainly nice to see something that is tonally different from all the previous releases. It felt like a real look at Freddie, beyond the usual, "he was a great performer and had a quiet life off stage", etc. etc. And while I don't feel it truly showed the man 100% (what docu can?), I do think it showed a lot more than we've seen or understood properly, before.

Thanks for the information.

I don't remember when I was the last time bored watching a Queen-related documentary. The only interesting bits were from the "Made In Heaven" interview. The rest ? I got the feeling that I'm reading wikipedia, and not WATCHING a documentary.
The strangest thing is that despite its name it's not a documentary about "The Great Pretender" nor about Freddie Mercury. It's a "making of Mr. Bad Guy and Barcelona" type of documentary. After watching the documentary I have the feeling that Freddie was in some band, I think it was called Queen or something, then he suddenly realized he's gay and started to fuck guys, made a crap album which he knew was crap, fell in love with Montserrat Caballe and wanted to do an album with her, he hated Queen members and especially Brian, made the Barcelona album and then he probably died or something.
I don't know why, but I start to have "negative thoughts" about Paul "everybody is my best friend" Gambaccini and Jim "I can do anything with Freddie's music" Beach.
The biggest part of this documentary is about the Barcelona album, why wasn't this documentary released as a bonus disc on the "deluxe" release of Barcelona ? If this documentary was done for the fans, why did they left out all interesting, or used just a few seconds of it ? (Like the audience footage from Queen from 1979, the David Wigg interview, the 1976 interviews, the Rod Stewart/MJ demos ...) If this documentary was made for the "average Joe", why didn't they at least mention WHO Freddie was or at least the fact that he died because of AIDS ?
After watching the "Days of our lives" documentary I downloaded it as DVD (from BBC broadcast) and watched it again. Then I downloaded a HD capture of the BBC broadcast and watched it again. And later again and again and again. And then I bought the BluRay and watched it again, again and again and ....
After downloading the leaked copy of The Great Pretender I watched it once and deleted it. I didn't like it but I thought it's because I got it as crappy low-res flv files and that I'm definitely going to like it on BD. Now I bought the BD. It took me 3 days (!) to watch it till the end and I really don't believe I will watch it again.
I'm sorry to be so negative, but I am seriously disappointed with this release[/QUOTE]
As anyone can see, i am very aware of Freddie and his magic brilliance.
It is to my utter astonishment therefore, that anyone and I mean "anyone" COULD ACTUALLY drain him of all LIFE
with All HIS powerful MAGIC and actually make him appear mediocre, Boring ! and produce such a DOWNER OF A DOCUMENTARY.
The highlights were the very little scenes where you actually heard him sing,
the rest was youtube clips and the same tired old eugenics lie of HIV =AIDS
The documentary was the first assualt on his Magic
The biopic will be the MAJOR ASSUALT
The rag tag brigade in who's hands his legacy now lies
have not an inkling on how to truly reflect his glory.
DOWN WITH THEM!
Freddie would never work with such , he required excellence and got it while he had a voice.
True in his day there was lots of mediocre talent around, yet he was above with the rare few of talented people, who were the creme of the music industry and actual artists, now he is left with the dregs of British talent who see but cannot understand ?
I'm not sorry to be so negative
it is deserved and drastically needed
Oh and one more thing, if i can bare to repeat the most shocking INSULT i could HAVE EVER imagined!!
A.I.D.S WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR FREDDIE'S TALENTS~!!!!!! MR BEACH
talentless, thoughtless, editors!
Freddie would have sacked them to save Mr Beach the embarrasment

You only need watch the ducumentary to see how appalling it is, if you consider the results of such an opinion to be insanity, i suggest you re-examine your comprehension of the word, and correct your ignorant thoughts, and so justify your retorts with a thinking brain, instead of one that is showing itself to be wholly dumb.

I've seen the documentary. I haven't see the ducumentary though. I hear it's a bit quackers?

I wonder if you get a bigger bill for ducumentaries.
