Anyone who appreciates Elton's music, or has an interest in how Reg Dwight became a mega-star, should definitely check out "Rocketman".
What a miserable country.Quote

There is one, Rockee ... a very uncensored sex scene featuring Elton and his lover/manager, John Reid. They're censoring Rocketman in Russia because of this.

i missed all the ones since johnny cash i think.
a little of ray; couldn't take it. the doors nearly killed me; hate to even mention it. bette midler was good live performances in that semi-Janis-semi-Kris and Barbara, semi lady gaga gaga and brad....geeze it's sad Elvis stopped making flicks....he coulda had a third coming. look at shatner. we've given him up for dead more times than there are planets; spock is dead and this guy is still getting parts....i think there was a mini jimi tv series; i missed that too...or something w jimi...yeah that Bobby Darin thing had me wanting to contract out mercenaries on Kevin what's his hame omg Bobby Darin; that could have been excellent; i missed straight outta compton; i think elton is not that interesting or ground breaking artists like Ike turner who got mudered in that movie; oh jeeze louise...i'm so glad i'm old...
great a gay love scene; at least the Russians have their wits about them....
tho they would have stopped the Stones.
we need the Stones live in moscow; not to self; contact mick's people.

I know all these biopics like to play fast and loose with the facts, but to have him singing "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues" at an audition, in 1967, when the song wasn't written until 1983, that's gotta make anyone cringe.
I tried to overlook the time/song shifts, but it really was disconcerting. As a viewer, you’re naturally taken back to where YOU were when that song came out, and it never matches with what they put on screen. It takes you out of the moment (a mistake that Bohemian Rhapsody didn’t make). I left feeling very unfulfilled. I don’t think they ever made up their minds about the kind of movie they wanted to make. Not sure how, but they managed to make an ordinary movie — about EJ!Quote

Well, under normal circumstances I would have, but this whole film was so fantastic and beautiful and sensitive and giddily enjoyable and entirely so much fun that I didn't. I think they were just having a bit of fun with this one.
Keep in mind, Sir Elton himself was Executive Producer.

Regarding mentioning hair transplants, hair product and Drumpf...any mention of Drumpf automatically becomes political even if its said in jest. Can we leave the mofu out of the conversation.
Maybe so, but it's a damn fact that even a casual mention of THAT guy is bound to start a shitstorm. That's just the way of the world today.Quote
