A concert scene in Bohemian Rhapsody?

Most of "The Magic of Hollywood" still involves very real people. Bohemian Rhapsody (Image: 20th Century Fox). In[...]

Bohemian Rhapsody was very, very long, but at the same time, felt like it was missing so much We could speak at length about >this< writer's personal disappointment with the film, but judging something on what it could have been vs what it is maybe isn't so fair. https://youtu.be/mP0VHJYFOAUVideo can't be loaded because JavaScript is disabled:[...]

We knew it was a very likely possibility that David Bowie would play a part in the upcoming Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody from 20th Century Fox, and the reveal of the official soundtrack listing may prove this.

Audiences are already divided on the 20th Century Fox biopic film Bohemian Rhapsody about one of the greatest rockbands in history, Queen.  Perhaps folks forget that the pitch for the flick was a look at the rise of the band as a whole, and not just the incredible frontman who took the world by storm. https://youtu.be/6S9c5nnDd_sVideo can't be[...]

At long last, the first teaser trailer for 20th Century FOX's biopic film Bohemian Rhapsody about the legendary rock band Queen is here, and holy crap, it's pretty great.
