This movie studio went so far as to throw around some "junkets" to a couple of their favorite trades to see if they could come out of the gate with stellar reviews about this new biopic being released. Not even with that money being thrown around could they get anything close to a positive review for the new movie about a singer.

Well they sure as hell couldn't throw young men at them this time.

ReplyDeletestill no Esquire article on Singer
ReplyDelete. Losing hope.
Was supposed to be released by halloween
@notthisagain, Do you think there’s any chance that the article got pulled? He started denying the contents weeks ago. Any chance Esquire caved to his lawyers?
DeleteMy guess is they got served with legal papers so pulled the story - for now.
DeleteI was watching some old Queen footage on line last night. Besides the whole Singer situation, who would wanna see this movie anyway when you still have easy access to the real deal on line? And the whole thing about white-washing his sexuality? Just no.
ReplyDeleteEsquire is like a closeted magazine, just come out already!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Aquagirl
ReplyDeleteAlso wasn't another A+ celeb male supposed to be exposed by this same Esquire issue? I remember that being alluded to on here not long ago...
@Kitty: Are you thinking about Hugh Jackman? There was a blind about him recently but can’t recall if it was related to the Esquire article.
ReplyDelete@kitty
ReplyDeleteHugh Jackman is the A+ actor exposed in the article, along with Glee’s Matthew Morrison
a rapist is going to have the #1 movie in the US this weekend. Sick
Hasn't there been several articles about several different people that mysteriously disappeared, threats of lawsuits,exchanging stories. This was very specific,though, not just hinted at.
ReplyDelete@Not after you asked about the Singer story yesterday, I went looking online. Singer never said when the article was coming out he thought it would be "around" the time the movie came out. I couldnt find anything from Esquire even acknowledging the story, so its Singer saying something that could be b.s. Magazines are usually put on sale Tuesdays and Thursdays and put online about the same time.
ReplyDeleteHugh Jackman, yeah. Thanks aquagirl and notthisagain for filling in those blanks for me.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first REAL commenting (besides a your turn), but I've been reading around for a few months. I got started on here from the Himmm blind about Dan Schneider lol
Instead of going to the film, watch a Queen Concert and a documentary on your giant Tv,and spend the money you saved on some good takeout. Don't let it be #1, at least.
ReplyDelete@Aquagirl & Guesser
ReplyDelete+1000!
Why do we need a movie about Mercury that gives us nothing new? We have his performances to watch, we don't need some millennial darling reinterpreting for us, thanks. Mercury is already out there for everyone to enjoy.
Never mind all that, but does anyone know an Indonesian casino site that I can bombard with some amazing quotes?
ReplyDeleteI'm at my wit's end wondering where I could possibly find such things.
Well Jimmy Fallon said the movie was FANTASTIC!
ReplyDeleteThe best Queen performance EVER was Live Aid they blew away every, single act at Wembley watch it on YouTube. Eff the movie, it's trash.
ReplyDelete@Sandy. Yeah that was a hell of a performance, but blowing away the opposition at Live Aid isn't exactly a high bar you hurdle. Everyone else -bar Bowie - sucked balls. If it wasnt for Quenn (& Bowie) then the whole thing would have been long forgotten.
ReplyDeleteChrist,my fat fingers are wreaking fucken havoc today.
ReplyDeleteIts 'to' not 'you' and 'Queen' not 'Quenn', obviously.
Maybe so @Bastard but he really stepped it up for his 1/2 hour. By then I'd really had enough of Queen too. Not much hard rock a lot of performane showcase.
ReplyDelete@Sandy, I believe they were only meant to get 15 mins but had said they would only do the gig if they could bring in their own sound guys and Freddie just ignored the frantic signalling for them to come off when their time was up.
ReplyDeleteI can't recall who followed them but imagine standing there waiting to go on while watching that. Id've just gone home.
Just googled, it was the Jagger)Bowie 'Dancing in the Streets' video which debuted after Queen, then Simple Minds, who can barely reach 'dog shit' level on their best day. I reckon that I could blow off Simple Minds by playing "the Sash My Father Wore" on a recorder and a tambourine strapped to my knee.
ReplyDeleteI was at Live Aid in London and recall having a very good time and seeing some amazing performances, including Queen, U2, Elvis Costello and a great band nobody remembers called Status Quo.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's cool and hip to throw garbage at Live Aid now, but at the time it was a magical and wonderful event.
bwahaha @Bastard
ReplyDeleteI don't know about cool and hip, but it's certainly a curious mind that would seek to evaluate whether or not Live Aid was a well executed idea or something that did more harm than good for the intended poors. It was and continues to give fraudulent philanthropic type credibility to Geldof bono et al. I'm sure it was a lovely concert tho.
ReplyDeleteI remember Status Quo. They were good!
ReplyDelete@lonelybastard lol you might not like Simple Minds, but...you didn’t forget about them
ReplyDeleteThey always have junkets, I used to write on film, so I’m not sure what the point of this blind is.
ReplyDeleteIt deserves to flop. They also straight washed the hell out of it. Anyways , Fox News has a story up about how Hugh Jackman is good friends with Ivanka Trump and her hubby, kushner . You know, Hugh , the one enty heavily implies is a total fraud who uses his false family guy veneer to use young men ? Yes that Hugh Jackman, good friend of Brian Singer ( and trumpies fave daughter too!) . So many good buddies everywhere. So if you ever wonder why zero percent of these abusers and pedos are facing any consequences ..... just remember it really does pay to have friends in high places. Oh unless of course youre black like Bill Cosby. Then you'll go to jail.
ReplyDelete"And the whole thing about white-washing his sexuality? " Well then there was really no point making the movie if it isn't honest and worse boring.
ReplyDeleteAnd hey it took decades to put Cosby in jail. He had cover for decades.
It just won a Golden Globe or two
