Nosaj Thing Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Spin picked up the story:http://www.spin.com/articles/guns-n-roses-hollywood-biopic/?utm_source=spinfacebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=spinfacebookApparently we're "the" GNR discussion forum Hell yeah! That's rad as hell!I see that Spin twisted and added some words in the story as if I said them.This is what I said As you all know Axl doesn't support anything to do with the old band except playing their songs live,Here is what they printed and also I did say that the band would get a chance to see the scrip including Axl. This is one of the reasons Axl stopped doing interviews.Oh, and before you ask, no, Axl Rose will not be involved. "As you all know Axl doesn't support anything to do with the old band except playing their songs live," confirmed Canter. Well, no surprise there. WOW. I've never had any sort of dealings with the press, but that's amazing to me. It's incredible how they can take something so simple and put such a spin (no pun intended) on it.To be fair. They're simply writing their story. They're not saying Marc said "no surprise there." They quote him accurately. They just editorialize with hit a bit. And they're spot on in their sentiment too. Exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russel Nash Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 It's time for a GNR movie. Probably it will suck like every biopic movie, but it will be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RLyraLorris Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hey Marc. First of all, thank you very much for doing this. I'm sure the movie will rock. But have you decided which actors is gonna be the band members, since it's what everyone's talking about? Especially the guy who's gonna be Axl can be hard to find. I've heard people talking about Charlie Hunnam for Axl, somewhere. And, this will sound ridiculous but do we have any chance to take part in the movie even for a scene? I mean, as fans, and for free Just asking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Does he get musicians, to act, or actors, to play music? It is an age old problem with these biopics. It is a problem which stretches back to The Monkees in fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

recklessroad Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I don't get to pick the actors, I just get to help make sure the story is right and that who ever they pick is well trained for the part. I trust the people making the movie and I'm not worried about who they pick to act. I know that with all the Resources that we have it will be done right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
