Pictures from "Love and Mercy" biopic

Ooh dear, I hope that microphone on the timpani isn't a movie prop...  And I don't like the idea of a Fire session being filmed in Western 1, assuming that's what's going on.  Oh well?

The first picture in the daily mail looks like Melinda talking to the 2 Brian actors. She looks , shall we say, healthy.

Is the target audience for the movie really going to notice or care? Lets cut them some slack.

I think people are a little too hung up on how little these actors look like the people they're portraying.  For all I care, it can be Denzel Washington playing Brian...it doesn't matter.  It's about the story and the events that these characters go through in the film that define them.   The actors are nothing more than a vague representation of the person they're portraying.  I'm not going to enjoy this film any more if they cloned Brian Wilson to play himself in the movie.  In the end, it's his journey that is the focus not whether the actor playing Brian has his double chin.

Cusack is too ugly to be Brian..... Brian is a handsome dude and was at his most handsome during the second Landy period... Not a big deal, but when they make bios of good looking people, the casting IN THE LEAST usually reflects that..... Like i said, not a big deal really, but still.... Dennis got Bruce Greenwood, ya know??

Brian singing with Cusack and Dano.  Pretty cool.  Where was this?

Any idea what happened to Dano? He's on crutches.

He broke his ankle trying to walk awkwardly.

Oh wow, those eyes, it's uncanny!

This movie is going to be a joke! The actress who is playing Audree Wilson was born in 1963. The actor who is playing her son was born in 1966....

You realize it's set in two different time periods, right?

She'll look great all done up like early 60's Marylin!

[bringahorseinhere?]

not to be 'johnny raincloud' here............ but I have a bad feeling about this flicka.....

im glad Brian and Co are overseeing it, but cant see it being much better than 'summer dreams' or 'American family'.....

In any case, very doubtful they'd put that on Timp at Western or Gold Star.

But I guess you never know.

No slack shall be cut.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE....... don't let Dave Grohl/Foo Fighters anywhere near the soundtrack to this movie!!!!!!!!

Why would the Foo Fighters be involved?

And I'm not a Foo Fighters fan but Taylor Hawkins helped finish "Holy Man" which I think should at least give him some Beach Boy cred.  But really the soundtrack should consist completely of Beach Boys/Brian Wilson songs.

[Pinder's Gone To Kokomo And Back Again]

Well, that's one reason: Hawkins already has an in. But that was him by himself.

I'm hoping Grohl/Foo Fighters aren't involved because he/they seem to be the go to fol for anything rock n roll history related by small-minded industry idiots who are too lazy to think of anyone more suited.
