Eric S'ennui Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 They just did the Bohemian Rhapsody trailer beat for beat lmao But Sexy Eggsy's lookin' sexy, so I can't complain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebeccas Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 This looks pretty clichéd to be honest but that could just be cause they legit copied the Bohemian Rhapsody trailer. Not that I blame them, they probably saw $855m and cried themselves to sleep hoping for even half of that, I will say, from everything I've heard, this is way more MUSICAL than biopic. They may want to clue audiences in on that before it gets like a C cinemascore lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 John Reid isn't portrayed well by Rocketman much like he was in Bohemian Rhapsody. It does seem the focus is in Bernie and Elton which was a strong partnership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 i had no idea john reid (duh) was scottish. was littlefinger going for scottish in bohemian rhapsody? add that to the list of that movie's... charms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 lool looks so much like BR except for the fact that you can blatantly tell it's a musical moreso than a biopic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LonePirate Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Yawn! Another straight-washed biopic about a gay entertainer. This pales in comparison to Bohemian Rhapsody and that movie was utter garbage. Egerton better not be banking on this film to propel him to a superstardom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napoleon Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 The song in this trailer was not as catchy as Rocket Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see no evidence yet of straight-washing, and I doubt Elton would allow it, being the producer. That said, this movie isn't being directed by a paedophile, so that's an advantage.

Whether the studio cuts it up to make a PG13 rating is still up in the air though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't end well so we'll see how it plays out in the movie, but hey Elton let him be played by Richard Madden which is a huge upgrade in the looks dept so how bad could it be?

I mean Elton himself is played by Taron so everyone gets a beauty upgrade. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koalablanc Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I wonder how many more famous musicians biopics (like this and BR) will be done if this movie is successful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
