this is really fucking stupid…….. kurt didn’t like the spot light, so why the fuck would he approve of a movie about himself? once again courtney pimp’s the name of “KURT COBAIN” this mockery is just down right sad………… i don’t mean to sound corny, but what was once a mysterious legend of rock, is becoming an “open book” thanks to miss love…………. i don’t mind selling unrealeased demo’s, or dvd’s of concert footage……. but, when you sell a person’s journal, and make a movie about their life, that to me is personal…………… and, in her view, the vibe i’m getting is, “i love you, but boy do i love money a lot more” hey courtney, here’s a thought, actually create art without the help of a famest frontman……………. seriously, if she’s not using nirvana and kurt, she’s using billy corgan…….. courtney without a doubt is easily the most overrated artist ever………….

I don’t care about Kurt Cobain much. They are also talking about a Phil Spector bio-pic. Now that I would go see.

Ewan playing Kurt?The resemblances quite match so yeah.Good choice.

I dont want Courtney to be involved in the movie. You know she wont tell the truth about her murdering the worlds greatest rock star. I just get so sad and…..well…..emo, when I think about it. Please dont let Courtney cruxify my lord again..

To Marc, yeah of course Kurt had an accent, sort of north west american I believe. How is it possible for anyone not to have an accent? Is there some neutral place in the world?

I think Eddie Murphy could transform the life story of Cobain into a more palatable mix of drama and fun. Give it to Murphy.

Most rock bios ending up sucking anyway. Cobain definitely merits a film if they wanted to make one but it would probably end up as overwrought tripe. Cobain will always be interesting, and just by looking at the pros vs cons I see here he clearly isn’t leaving the cultural landscape anytime soon. I say forget the flick and direct people who don’t know to the music, and let them decide.

Hey Marmet (below)

Your an idiot.

Now go fuck yourself and your uneducated opinion.

Loser.

Kurt Coabin

Can U say loser!!!!

Couldn’t one also say the same about Morrison, Joplin, Hendrix, etc?

Emile Hirsch is actually a good idea, except he’s a bit too baby-faced….. McGregor should do a decent job, although I would like to point out that, aside from Walk The Line, rock star biopics are never really satisfying to the artist’s fanbase. So Nirvana heads will most likely have a problem with whoever does land the role.

Ewan would do a good job - he could make a hole in his head with a lightsaber at the end before he says “Train the boy - Trrraaaiiin the boooooy”

Beckhams - umm - what is behind this bookcase?

I have my job employeedirt.com

It’s SCOT.

But . . . but Ewan McGregor is lively. And funny. And interesting. There’s nothing Cobain about that.
Hey, you know who’s boring, wasted, and shitty looking enough to plow The Holy Kurt? Keith Urban, that’s who.
And don’t be a wise ass about Brian May.

EMILE HIRSCH, Courtney read this.

EMILE HIRSCH

EMILE HIRSCH = KURT COBAIN

Refer to Lords of Dogtown

i think ewan could pull it off.
i mean, he already looked a lot like kurt in a few scenes from velvet goldmine….

foo fighters are GAY

I’ve been saying for years the best thing Cobain did was kill himself. It freed up Grohl to make some great music.

how about meatloaf?…meatloaf could play kurt cobain…

I heard that Jackie Chan will play Cobain. I think he can pull it off.

Ewan could probably pull off the role, but he looks nothing like Cobain.

I want to be a Rolling Stone censor. What’s it like to make minimum wage?

Whoever they get to play Kurt must be a shitty guitarist and also be a crybaby bitch ass little junkie turd with the ability to allow a total junkie mongoloid slut to manipulate his every decision.

a scott!? somebody is hooked on phonics…stop hurting us.

The thing is, what probably was really going through Kurt’s mind when he killed himself probably was something like this:

“F*ck… I married a whore… No I’m stuck with a kid and a big suburban home… I can’t even go outside without being mobbed by assh*les… I’m associated with a shitty genre of music that I don’t even like… I’m only 27 for god sake… need more drugs… ahhh… that’s better… is that me on tv… oh no… reality sinking in… more drugs… better… the whore is trying to call me… more drugs… ahhh… baby’s crying… more drugs… reality keeps sinking in… there is only one answer…

*bang*

Not very cinematic, is it? Well, Gus Van Sant already proved the point.

But since Courtney Love relies on Nirvana residuals to keep her in the finest designer clothing and detox clinics, she’ll need to produce a movie that will preserve Kurt’s legend for decades to come.

Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) should play Kurt Cobain.

Did you ever stop to think that AI wanted Diana Ross to break the news?

Ewan MacGregor as smack-adled rocker. Haven’t seen that one before!

I honestly don’t feel that Kurt deserves a biopic. Ray Charles, Johnny Cash, Kurt Cobain…gimme a break.

Ewan is a great actor but I’m not so sure about him playing Cobain. Ewan really shined in Trainspotting so we know he can get into a role well but Cobain?, hmmmm we’ll have to see.

I love Velvet Goldmine, and obviously Ewan was trying to channel a little bit of Kurt Cobain for the character. But mostly, he was doing Iggy Pop.

That’s exactly why Ewan should not do a lame biopic of Kurt Cobain. He’s already done a great rock movie, and one that doesn’t pull punches or aim for the mainstream preciousness.

Fact is, Ewan is WAY WAY WAY COOLER than Kurt Cobain ever way. So why should he slum.

although Ewan is a decent choice and can play a rockstar,i agree that he is too old to play kirk.

i cant believe someone pulled “daniel johns” out of their ass!!!

It Will be hard for anyone to compare to Kurt,but i would still like to see the film.

Ewan is a great actor….one of my favorites. I think he could pull this off.

you people should shut up…go check out Velvet Goldmine, if you don’t believe Ewan can play Kurt

daniel johns for the movie!

Did Kurt have an accent….no..next please.

Nothing against Ewan but no, I just dont see it.

download “tv eye” by him “wyld ratz” and then tell me he’s not the guy for the job!!

Ewan MacGregor is too cool for this shit.

Anyway, he’s too old to play Kurt Cobain.

The mythologizing of Cobain irritates me. He was a misanthropic little brat who wrote some decent songs which haven’t aged very well. Then he killed himself. Had he lived he would have faded into obscurity.

Kurt is dead for some time now…I think he’s cold by now.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO F EWAN MCGREGOR! KURT’S SO MUCH HOTTER!
