Paul Dano was hired for his bangs. It helps to be a guy with a Beatle haircut as Brian did in the mid-'60s, when very few of his acting peers have such outdated hairstyles.

I really hate that phrase 'Beatle haircut', they didn't invent that hairstyle.

According to someone who would know.

Seriously, there was a Beach Boys Love You condom?!  Amazing.

This guy Dano doesn't even look like Brian Wilson in his "Surfin' U.S.A." days. They're off to a rocky start already.

I always enjoy the comments after the articles. One guy says, "Sorry Paul, nobody can come close to the legend". Another guy says "Murry pushed him over the edge".

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

I am not bugged about likeness. The guy who played Lennon in Back Beat looked nothing like him, but damn if I didn't believe he was John Lennon. Paul Dan is a fine actor.

What I really want to know is why is this film being made in the first place? I'm very skeptical about biopics in general.

Because Brian has an interesting life story that will make a good movie that people will want to see, surely.

Emdeeh makes a good point. The biopic is pretty much a dead art form. But luckily the I'm Not There writer who is writing this seems to recognize that too, which is why I'm Not There is such a great movie.

I don't want to make this like a final warning, but as it's not the first time I told you this, I say it one more time:

Do NOT quote someone, and then alter the words. (even if you think it's just meant to be funny)

I said it before.  I'll say it again.

Steven Page.


Ex-Barenaked Ladies singer???

He's a great musical talent, brilliant and underrated songwriter, one of the best of his generation IMO (or at least one of the best to come out of Canada), but CAN HE ACT?Huh!!!!     

Plus, he lost a whole bunch of weight of few years back, and has kept it off... He's a guitar guy where Brian's a piano guy... There's a distinct Canadian-ness to Page's speech that, if he can't consciously suppress while on camera, would sound wayyy out of place in 60s So-Cal.

Biopics tend to suck big time.

I'd like to see Jeff Bridges play BW.
