MUSICAL BIOPICS CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT

I understand Bowie never wanted anyone to make a biopic because they are always cringe
But if one WERE to make one, they could use the songs he covered from the Ziggy era, like It Ain't Easy, Amsterdam, Round and Round, et cetera

George Michael is next.

is this the new capeshit?

Bee Gees. Made popular first by Travolta returning to a Saturday Night Fever sequel directed again by Stallone.

Make a movie about Picasso without showing any of his paintings.

That's lame, will it at least include the scene where Bowie breaks up the band for no reason at all and refuses to pay his guitarrist?

I'm really surprised they haven't made Grungekino about Nirvana. There's a lot of drama there to milk.

Kurt Cobain in a Requiem for a Dream-like movie

>U2
>Elton
>Bowie
>Queen
It's building up for the Live Aid crossover.

Gary Glitter

>where Bowie breaks up the band for no reason at all
The kids had killed a man he had to break up the band.

>Boy George

Have they cast Sophie Turner yet?

Zappa biopic.

Also do a film about Olivia Newton John and John Travolta. They had chemistry back then and would translate well to a romantic comedy type movie. Filled with duets, and Olivia/Bee Gees music. Would be kino.

I just realized that Bradley Cooper hangs himself in A Star Is Born because of Bennington and Chris Cornell's deaths.

Who gives a fuck about Ziggy Stardust? His best albums were before that

When did we stop trying? Why do movies suck so much now? There are good biopics about musicians but these soulless flicks being shat out every few months since Straight Outta Compton are transparent cash grabs devoid of any artistic integrity

>When did we stop trying?
I'd argue 1998 when Shakespeare in Love won the Academy Award.

>tfw if they ever make a Fleetwood Mac movie, Lindsey will be the villain and cut out of all revenue
feel bad for the guy. the rest of the band is making like $5m per show right now. I'm sure he's rich enough as is, but gotta suck a bit

IF I COULD TOUCH YOUR BODY

>tfw if they ever make a Fleetwood Mac movie, Lindsey will be the villain and cut out of all revenue

Why? What happened?

t. musiclet

honestly who cares about these fucking biopics
Bohemian Rhapsody wasnt even good, it literally made me hate Mercury.

They fired him, big lawsuit happening as a result. Don't know why these old boomers want to keep working when they could all afford mansions in Santa Barbera or wherever as this point.

Sucks.

Hollywood, because it brings money.

All these musicians had a boring ass life
Oh, I can already be excited for that one time u2 dropped album on everyone's iphone's and everyone complained about it on twitter.

GREAT MOVIE there.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH

Attached: AAAAAAAA.jpg (425x385, 50K)

there was a time that U2 was one the coolest and more relevant bands ever, during the early nineties, when they drop the whole political thing and embrace some egomaniac characters and experiment a lot.

achtung baby and zooropa are fucking great albums, hold me thrill me kiss me kill me is a great single for batman forever.

now theyre shit.

U2 is a great analogy to the whole music business, actually, it could be a great movie indeed: how some kids come up with a band still on school, become a legit thing and them turn into soulless corporate garbage.

>all these untalented hacks undeservedly get a biopic
>no fucking kate bush or bjork
Gas all normalfags now

>Celine Dion ("Velvet Goldmine" style)
so it'll loosely be based around her with names changed

>Celine Dion
Did she do anything of worth aparth from Tit-anic?

Pink Floyd, specifically the earlier years with Syd

Howerton and Buckingham look too similar to not cast him.

bjork
ricardo, is that you?

>>David Bowie (featuring none of his songs)
What

it needs to start with late 60s bowie, goes into space oddity, then the glam rock era with ziggy stardust, moves into station to station thin white duke psychosis bowie, then to berlin trilogy and ending on ashes to ashes. none of this could work without his songs btw

Attached: Xander_Samuel-Matilda_Brown.jpg (650x366, 28K)

It needs to start with babby bowie, it would be interesting to see his kook family in moving imagery

How about avoid all that shit and turn Ziggy Stardust and Diamond Dogs into movies?

this but should also include his brief soul phase with young americans, he really looked like shit health wise, even moreso than station to station era
>ending on ashes to ashes
this would work really well, the entirety of scary monsters feels like a conclusion to his 70s work, if only he had included crystal japan as the closer

Attached: bowie-diamond-dogs.jpg (976x1000, 134K)

I don't care about any of this lame shit except for Aretha and David. Where's the Neon Nox biopic?

the 70s is peak bowie. it needs to include all of it. and space oddity and ashes to ashes are like the beginning and end of a story with major tom.

>Deram era tracks since Bowie's estate doesn't own them
>Venus in Furs (= Little Toy Soldier)
>Fill Your Heart
>Waiting for the Man
>My Death
>White Light/White Heat
>Let's Spend the Night Together
>Pin Ups
>Funky Music
>Wild is the Wind
>Nite Flights
>Alabama Song
>Kingdom Come
>Baal
It could almost work but there would be riots.

Someone on here had an amazing idea for a weird Al biopic once

>David Bowie (featuring none of his songs)
Why even fucking bother
Hopefully this means there will be an attempt to make this more of a serious movie and not a concert simulator like Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman were, and how the Boy George movie will likely be

AC/DC biopic would make a killing.

Who's about to die, OP?

Harrison Ford

Presumably they're waiting for Courtney Love to die off so they don't have to completely launder her involvement in Kurt Cobain's suicide

i am a massive bowie fan but the deram shit is fucking awful

*murder

Silly Boy Blue is good tho

Certainly not Bowie.

> it's not a film about his period being the thin white duke.

>rubber band
>sell me a acoat
>love you till tuesday
>there is a happy land
>let me sleep beside you
>space oddity
>awful

Too real

Probably the best musical biopic

Close but no. You start with him circa 1976 high out his mind on Coke and he decides he needs rehab. So him, iggy, eno and visconti go to Berlin. And you then write a film about bowie dealing with his mistakes and trying to move on a be a better musician/person. You definitely include pic related. It covers only 1977 (so Low, The Idiot, Lust for Life and "Heroes") culminates in the song "Heroes".

THEY GOT A MESSAGE FROM THE ACTION MAN

No it just means just didn't get the rights to his music from his family but they're making it anyway.
Weirdly it's totally legal to just make a film about any real person you like and since you cant libel the dead you can just make up any bullshit you like

I'M HAPPY HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY TOO

>U2
who wants to see this faggot?

>be obsessed with bowie
>listen to all his albums
>know everything about him
>lmao biopic with no music

He was a pretty interesting guy, he had a schizophrenic brother.

This is the song he wrote about him, only played it 5 time live in his life

His mother or grandmother was also abusive

He wrote Jump they say about his brother

space oddity isn’t deram. love you til tuesday is okay but the rest are basically lullabies.

kino song and video.

I don't get it. He was extremely talented, popular, rich and a great person all around - and yet he still had to die from a fucking cancer.
There is no justice in this world.

i think he found out she was a hooker or something and it fucked him up

he cant act

Will the Bowie biopic mention his status as a cunnyseur?

Didn't bowie get me too'd?

>Black Sabbath
This'd pretty much just be a Tony Iommi biopic since he's the only band member to stay through the band's entire existence

Metallica already have Some kind Of Monster which will never be topped anyway. Damn that movie is great

Honestly one of my favorite Bowie tracks.

Led Zeppelin is inevitable.

>Who will be next?
Steel Panther

he managed to fuck a groupie who turned out to be underage. that’s kind of the rockstar MO

Pete Green is the only thing that would make a Fleetwood Mac movie remotely interesting

In Australia maybe, worldwide god no.

>that hair loss cope
I want to strap him down in a windtunnel and just blast the fuck out of him

>Led Zeppelin is inevitable.
I love Led Zeppelin, but their story is quite bland. It's just going to be them playing greatest hits in random concerts, do lots of drugs and then Bonham dies.
