      It should’ve buried the genre entirely imho. So many inaccurate biopics got released since, with that Queen one being one of the worst offenders (breaks the real world timeline of events for dramatic story telling reasons, clearly biased from one member’s perspective, and with piss poor editing throughout).

        The fact that dipshit won an academy award for editing just kills me inside a little more every time I think about it.

          Yeah, that one really makes fuck all sense.

          There’s a great video on YT that goes into all the terrible edits in this movie, and they cover literally almost the entire runtime of the film.

          I can only assume the academy was either bribed or blackmailed to come to this decision.

        I was amazed to read that the surviving members of the band wanted that movie to be primarily about what Queen did after Mercury’s death.
