Bohemian Rhapsody

Well, do what you gotta do.
 
I didn't realize Joseph Mazzello was in this. That guy was an excellent actor as a child. No idea where he has been since The Social Network.
 
As excited as I am for this film and that trailer was absolutely incredible, from all the pics I've seen and the trailer itself I can't help but feel like they could have used prosthetics to give Raimi that kind of big chin and jawline that Freddie had. I mean it just would have added to the visual effect of believability for me that the person I'm watching is Freddie and not someone playing him?. I know the performance is far more important but every little visual bit can really help sell it also. Just my feelings on it. Other than that, I love how Raimi is doing it so far and can't wait for the film.

Mazzello was awesome on Person of Interest, small role though.

Cool to see he's playing Deacon.
 
does Sacha Baron Cohen look like Freddie Mercury? its like he tested prosthetics for Freddy and years later he used the them for a different project:woot:

Said all along SBC should have been cast, an it's a damn shame they couldn't work it between him & May/Taylor.

See this is my point that I had made earlier. Why couldn't they have used something like that for Rami Malek?. It just adds to the visual look so much more. Freddie had a uniquely proportioned skull and jawline. This movie of Sacha's proves it works.
 
I don't think any amount of prosthetics will make Malik look like Mercury. He just has a very particular look to him.

Disagree. I think he pulls off most of the look I just think the added help of some prosthetics will help just get an audience more invested in feeling like they're watching Mercury instead of a guy playing Mercury.
 
Not generally a movie I'd feel compelled to see; though that doesn't mean I wouldn't show up anyway. That being said, I loved the preview and this is a definite see for me.

My first reaction was "okay...yeah...I'm down".
 
The trailer is really good. I'm excited to see it on the big screen.
 
How the hell does Malik (as he is in the movie) not look like Mercury? It's about as close as any biopic likeness ever.
 
I think Malek looks like Mercury.

Do you guys know what Malik looks like? Or Mercury for that matter? They don't look remotely alike. Not even a passing resemblance. I suppose coming his hair back and adding a mustache is enough?
 
Yea, considering there's been pics in this thread, just in case I don't know what Rami Malek looks like (which I do), or Freddie Mercury (which I do), or Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury (which I do).
 
Sure, Rami might look more recognizable with the long hair, but he looks pretty perfect when pulling off Mercury with short hair and the moustache.

He'll do great!
