And I have to admit, it was pretty horrible to leave the theatre with all these amazing songs playing in my head and getting into the car with the radio on - the stuff on the radio was just absolute nothingness after Queen. You really don't need to be that that much of a talent to succeed in music these days.[/QUOTE]
I hate to break it to you, but it's been like that for about 35 years.
There are literally millions of bands now. Look beyond FM radio to find good music - it's everywhere.

Yeah, I get that.. It was just the contrast of the moment that really hit me. Such a step down from Queen to whatever was playing on the radio. The music in my country especially is quite bad at the moment. Image and looks have always had a role in music, but today with all the social media, it's insane. Luckily I do know other good bands and artists as well!

Well, i also went to the movie today and the first thing that struck me, the actress playing Mary.. She's incredibly beautiful, and secondly the acting is superb.
well, The Mary story is the one true thing about the movie and Smile. The actress who played Mary Is beautiful....But Mary herself said When He broke up with her he said he was Bi, She replied, No You're Gay...Love Of My Life was also written for her, so their story Is on point I think..As for the movie, The timelines are messed up, but only die hard fans care about that....I seen It again, The 2nd time around I see the movie In a different light. I watched It as a casual fan would...Some things I still don't like, but Overall Not a bad movie.

^^^ I'd agree with that, I've only seen it once but from past experience I'm often on the fence the first time I see a movie and then see it differently the next so I suspect the same will happen with this.

Yeah i know, but i got sick of the whole forum stuff! I basically never post on forums anymore, i've got that YouTube channel for musicrelated things, and that's about it.
*This forum being an exception every few times a year, and i sometimes post on a keyboard/synthesizerforum but that's nothing to write home about.

Well... finally saw the movie, at IMAX.
It was OK. 3.5 stars.
I agree with both the critics and the lovers: it’s good, shallow fun.
It’s squarely aimed at a younger generation, especially when you consider the viral marketing.
From the perspective of casual fan, it’s a great time in the cinemas. The overal look is amazing — the art direction and cinematography is on point. It also sounds amazing.
From the perspective of a long time fanboy, the shuffling of their history is frustrating. I kept thinking they were playing the scenes in shuffle. There’s a lot of dialogue that plays out as hammy and some scenes just aren’t played out right.
— Rami Malek: good, not great
— Brian May: absolutely bang on
— John Deacon: absolutely bang on
— Roger Taylor: totally miscast
If anything, I hope the success of the movie and the resurgence in their popularity brings about a long form Netflix series.
It’s a good time in the cinemas, but it doesn’t do the band’s legacy any favours.

well that was a heartbreaker. i really wish the rest of the film had lived up to the climax. the band never hated each other, never took "years off" before Live Aid

haha thanks.
no one seems to get my username, i use this on a lot of fan forums.
and in regards to most post, maybe he was a jerk? but most of what i'm reading here points out that May was a jealous child about FM.
