Don't miss the full Live Aid recreation not seen in theatre

If it's a dual disc and DVD has a later release date it's likely BLU-RAY plus soundtrack *OR cheapness on the level of the exploitation of Michael Jackson'sdeathand it's a CLBLU-RAY FEATURE plus BLU-RAY EXTRAS (*running about 30 minutes and easily stackable on a single blu-ray disc)

My guess would be one of those. And the DVD edition will be basics.

Extras equal: 4-5 cut scenes, 4 extended scenes

And the *FULL RECREATION OF THE LIVE AID SHOW - wow! ***NOT**** the original band! ... the full RECREATION of the original band!


Or it could simply be a third option.

2nd disc IS the LIVE AID recreation with a few interview promo bits.

There was far too much Live Aid in the film. Fun to recreate, sure, but only cheapens the actual performance - like endless reconstructions of the Zapruder film. I said at the time that there should've been a few story lines going on away from the stage (Jim realising he loves Fred, the Bulsaras becoming proud, Mary finds out Freddie is ill) so we only hear the performance / see brief glimpses as a backdrop to the action so it acts to compliment the original performance in realtime. But you know that would've required some thought.

Poor release I must say

very bad bonuses

It is beyond me how they can think it is exciting for us fans to have the complete set mimed by actors and on the other hand deem original unheard Queen seventies live audio "not good enough" for release...

1 minute original Freddie audio/video is for me better than a 1000 4k blu rays with actors imitating FM...

This is not an item a true Queen fan would buy.

Won´t be buying nor watching this movie ever again, so I don´t care if the special features in the forthcoming home release are at the same level of the movie itself. But, hey, wasn´t that expectable?

Will it be on the digital version too?

So true...

just as expected... But honestly... I'd hoped they'd include some actual stuff of the ACTUAL BAND... ... at least a complimentary soundtrack... geez that's bad


Suppose Singer can't be tracked for a commentary

I just got home from the cinema. I am speechless. How could they create such a piece of junk? They have a great story to tell, fantastic music, awesome actors, a spectacular setting...and they just rewrite their history?

And back to topic: Who wants to see the full mimed set in DVD while the original performance is available?

Funny... Any deleted scenes?

That's what I ask myself as well. This movie is so bad it makes you cringe. I was shocked about the movie and equally shocked about how many pple really liked it. A Movie where Freddie is insulted

Why on earth would anyone get excited about or want to see a recreation of Queen's performance at Live Aid, when you can watch the real thing? I don't understand how some fans are reacting to this film as though its as good as any of the many factual documentaries that have been made over the years.
