I'm sure die-hard fans of Ray Charles wept like babies when Jamie Foxx won best actor for his well-researched portrayal. I'm sure Heath Ledger wanted to give an honest portrayal of Joker in Dark Knight. The fact that there are critics of this movie even before it has one fame put to film - and such same critics will watch for the 'morbid' curiosity speaks to the hypocrisy of some people on this forum. To the initial author in this thread, I can't understand your logic. If you're against the movie .... DON'T GO SEE IT. Save your hard earned $13 and buy a cd so you can recreate the larger than life movie in your head, and give it an honest representation of how you think the movie should look. I'm sure we'd all love to see it. Otherwise stop this ridiculous rant. [/QUOTE]
^^^ extremely well said.
and to the original poster:
you have no fucking idea what freddie's private life was like (none of us do) - you saw the stage persona and nothing more. a biopic isn't just about the star's performances - it's about ALL of their life. and i personally, couldn't give a fuck about the biopic, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't make it. the actor is acting the role - you need to separate what you know about an actor (and their cv/resume) and what they are being asked to do in this movie.
get the fuck over yourself

So don't go see it.
"This being said, I know I shall go watch the movie as soon as it come out. Just morbid curiosity.
What do you think?"
I think you need to stop whining and make up your mind. Either you don't want to watch it so you don't go to see it, or you do want to watch it and you do go to see it. Either one's just fine, but the schizo-crap you're pulling right now is just silly.
