No fro for Gaga?
Maybe this is all a joke and there never was a movie made!

"Freddie did not wear glasses at SNL".
Alright, thats true. My opinion is that everyone who actually gets angry if Freddie's shoelases are tied wrong, or that his jacket has brown buttons instead of black is very odd. I hope you don't state these things to none Queen fans. Social suicide. People will think you are a weirdo of the highest order. And it's not far from the truth.

This is like those puzzles from childhood--what's wrong with this picture? Brian and Roger are without mics. So which song has Freddie not at the piano and no backing vocals? There's people here who know everything about Queen, someone must know this one!
And why is there a carpet in the bass drum?
This has to be photoshopped.

The little kids in the "Miracle" video look more like Queen than these professional actors do. And the Gibson? WTF? He's not Jimmy Page.

the guitar is very weird. and the way he is holding it. the actual movie trailer looks a lot better than some of the stills they have released.

It’s a movie designed to entertain so there will be some artistic licence. However, Brian in particular seems to have been quite fastidious regarding the guitars, there were two red special copies so I do wonder did he possibly use a Les Paul at some time, although the only photos I have ever seen were from the early 70’s?[/QUOTE]
Brian bought both a Stratocaster and a Les Paul in Queen's early days and those were his main spare guitars. Later on he got the "Yellow Special" replica, which he destroyed during a concert in 1982. Afterwards he got a Flying V. Not to mention the Telecaster he's used for CLTCL in every concert on Freddie's days.
He started using Guild Red Special replicas from 1984 onwards.
If we take into account the movie isn't very strict about chronology (i.e. Freddie's moustache during We Will Rock You), there's nothing wrong with Brian using a different guitar.
We should also take into account that on promo videos it wasn't unusual for him to use different guitars. Right now I can think of Killer Queen (TOTP) and Play The Game, where he plays a Stratocaster, CLTCL and his Telecaster and Princes of the Universe and a Flying V lookalike.
So a studio shot of him with a Les Paul in the 80s (assuming it's the 80s because of Freddie's moustache) might not be 100% accurate, but it's not too far off from Brian's habits.

It could be a jam in the studio. That'd explain the absence of BV mics. The carpets are pretty common in the studio. cmsdrums could correct me if I'm wrong, but drummers like to use them to prevent the drums from sliding away, and some claim it affects their tone.
On the ANATO 30th Anniversary documentary you can see Rog's kit sitting on a carpet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-qeq691--w

I seem to remember a knitting needle once. Naw, maybe another band I’m thinking of.
