After Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman, what would you like to see next.


I'd like to see a Nirvana movie with Dave Grohl and the other band members consulting. Love them or hate them they did change the face of music.

Sinatra

interesting....Any concerns with him like Bing Crosby?

reply

so many rumors about the guy it's hard to know what is true or not. i think that is why filmmakers have stayed away.

Let's see a feature length examination of Eddie Murphy's music career:

reply

Its too early for this and I don't think he's actually got the comedy chops to be a full feature.

reply

Led Zeppelin

reply

That would be a good one, Plant or Page would have to want to delve deep into their band.

reply

Yeah, and I doubt they’d want a lot of the really wild stories retold…

reply

Honestly I think we'd be all happy with a white washed version, if thats all we could get.

reply

the girls were very young. too young.

reply

The Bee Gees. A family drama where three brothers rise and fall and rise... and then the little brother rises, and dies young. Imagine the drama, and the music!

Cocaine I guess its not harmless.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-xfFqWaK1s

reply

I don't think anyone ever thought cocaine was harmless, they just thought it was less harmful than heroin.

But yeah, the story of the Gibb family could make an awesome movie if done well, it's a hell of a story! But as with all such stories, the question is whether the remaining Gibb famiy members would allow a film be made. I've heard that with both "Rocketman" and "BH", the parties in question actively pushed the films through Development Hell, and I have no idea how the Gibb family would feel about my idea.

reply

No way Dave Grohl would be given another movie after the terrible flop that is Studio 666.

reply

It would have to be a big band with plenty of drama and a long history. I'd like to see movies about The Rolling Stones, KISS, Fleetwood Mac, Duran Duran and Van Halen.

reply

I was gonna say Madonna, but she's actually in the process of casting for her biopic, so that's already gonna happen. My next choice would have to be Dolly Parton. I just think her life would be really interesting to learn about in more detail.

reply

a stop to all this..... I would see a documentary on Queen and Elton - who are among my favorite bands/artists ever.

reply

There's a bazillion music documentaries on Youtube, so get streaming!

reply

I've probably seen them all. If you know (almost) any from the 60/70s, I'll watch them, even when I don't like their music.. Some musicians are much more interesting as people -- Frank Zappa, for example, but I've seen a handful of documentaries on him.
