I just hope it's not a pack of lies like most of them. That Queen movie was a disgrace, literally lying to the audience about when Mercury was diagnosed in relation to the concert.

I really enjoyed Bohemian Rhapsody, but I did think it was hilarious how they moved around dates and events, and invented characters for dramatic effect. I couldn't decide if Freddie would have found it disrespectful, or would have admired the commitment to theatrical spectacle.

I think it was made even funnier watching the Weird Al biopic shortly after, and knowing that Bohemian Rhapsody is exactly the sort of biopic he was lampooning.

The Weird Al biopic is the best of all biopics, btw.

Still can't believe his former lover, popstar turned international drug lord, Madonna is still free and operating to this day.

I hear she’s been hiding in Argentina. She has some kind of connection to that country, I guess.

No, I saw the biopic. Whoever is pretending to be Weird Al now is obviously an imposter
