If you meet Brian, you will see he has two faces...

I'm shocked the expression "amateur mistake" (or something equivalent) has appeared at least twice in this thread. Brian, Roger and probably everyone involved in the film has watched the We Will Rock You and live videos between 1977 and 1980. Having Malek with a moustache for the WWRY scene, as well as putting Fat Bottomed Girls on a 1974-ish setlist are obviously deliberate decisions.
Have you guys never watched ANY other Hollywood version of previously existing stories (either real ones or comics, books etc)? You can't tell years of facts in just 2 hours and make it both entertaining and faithful. To keep the film flowing well it's often necessary to either skip some facts or clump them together.
It's a movie, not a documentary. Its first goal is to be entertaining. It's not made to inform, it uses a real story as basis for entertainment. There's shitloads of documentaries for those of you who just want to see real facts from the band's history.

pause the trailer during the we will rock you bit. everyone else looks 1970s, rami as freddie looks like hes "photoshoppd" on top his image is crisper and has a "harder" edge.... Then also in the stage clapping bit, he looks copied over..
just my thought. and i think maybe thats what they are doing on purpose. someone would have said something during filming you would have to think..

Only bit that worried me was the 'you're a legend' bit. Can't really imagine them sitting around calling each other legends but then again, when you've got that much money maybe it just happens one day ha ha.
>That’s where the drama was, there’s your Best Actor nomination
This fucking thing won't even get a nomination for an Original Soundtrack award; believing that it would challenge REAL actors is just beyond a joke.
Now in terms of Rotten Tomatoes, this film will hit the heights!

"Freddie concerning your private life....?"
Freddie : "What more do you need to know, I make music..."
Freddie: "We are ALL legends"
This trailer puts it all on the table, it is a movie about Queen.

FBG in 1974? '39 on their first tour?
where is that part?
Trailers are known to have scenes that don't make it into the movie or have different versions of them, going as far as getting special voice over from the actors so that the trailer "works".
My thought/ wishful thinking wheen seeing the WWRY "mistake" was that they brought in moustache Freddie for the trailer so that it flows well with the following scene with 1981 Freddie performing WWRY on stage. For continuity's sake.
My worry is that there is so much story with lots of ups and downs along the 15-18 years this movie is supposed to cover that it ends up feeling like vignettes of random events put together in a dodgy sequence.
I'm 100% sure there will be a point where there's a live montage and the next scene happens 2 years and 2 albums later and they make it seem like it's right after.
For example, I suspect they'll go from 1977 to 1980 to show Queen's steady climb in the U.S. until they peak with AOBTD but then they crash and burn with Hot Space. From a narrative perspective I don't see them going from U.S. success in 1977 to a 'meh' album with Jazz, then the Live Killers era and the crazy tour, etc.. it would feel out of place.

Freddie did wear that moustache in NOTW era, as this pic proves.

Haven't we all? To be fair to him, his main face is a lot more caring, thoughtful, intelligent, creative and brilliant than most people..

A pretty detailed breakdown of the new trailer

His main...the darkest face is horrible.
DId you see his dark face?
Maybe Deacon will be there for comic relief.
I know you were joking but i think this is exactly going to be John's purpose in the film, i suspect Roger will be comic relief too. From the trailer it looks like their roles are going to be along the lines of the ghostbusters Characterisations in the Real Ghostbusters cartoon from the 80's.
Every good idea will be suggested by Brian, like Egon.
Freddie will be the sarcastic joker like Peter
Roger will be Ray, the one full of engery and so on.
John will be winston, underwriten.
