I'm not sure what you were expecting. Gary was(and still is) a pretty slummy area, and I'm pretty sure it also snowed there in the 1960s.

I drove through Gary and saw MJs home. It’s semi, accurate.

Why is everyone being so negative about the biopic just based off of the trailer?

That's what trailers are for though - they either look good, or they don't. They're for discussion.

Also, the vast majority on here are very very positive about it?

Tbf it’s been mostly positive comments . I’ve been negative for things such as it looks fake and too shiny.

I’m now expecting Bohemian Rhapsody 2.0 and something that skims the surface without tackling real issues.

It's pretty much what I expected from the start, until I read they had shot the Neverland Ranch raid - so my expectation raised a bit (and then lowered again obviously)

But yeah, everything screams Bohemian Rhapsody to me and I hated that film with a passion. I share your opinion on the crowd, btw. It was awful in Bo Rhap and doesn't look an better here.

But I don't think the thread should be confined to positive only comments? Who wants to genuinely be in an echo chamber?

When Branca did that video on TikTok saying how this would be different and we don’t shy away from anything etc it really got my hopes up.

I agree the initial rumours about how it was gonna be about Michael fighting back and covering all the gritty stuff and making the audience realise how much nonsense he has to deal with. I imagined the Chandler recording being played out for all to hear , would have been great.

What we are getting is another run in the mill biopic, something like the Amy Winehouse, Whitney Houston , Bob Marley movies.

Considering the shit he had to endure and his legacy tainted. I wanted this movie to really set the record straight.

I don't think anything can be as bad as Back to Black, I'm fairly confident. I genuinely felt awful for Amy leaving the cinema at what they did at her expense, it was disgusting.
