I understand how people may not want this film to come out but I also think that people kind of need to see why mark chapman acted the way he did because the first question everyone asks when something like this happens is "why" and i don't know about you guys but i think we could learn something from what he did.
he's talking about the murder of john lennon, one of the most dreadful things in history, and all you can say is he looks good in this? jesus you're either really dumb or really distracted or both.
It's so stupid that people would boycott this film, I don't see these same people boycotting other movies based off of real life incidents. I don't see why people like the Beatles anyway, every one of there songs are the same with hippy lyrics and a kind of elevator music tone, there music is horrible and boring and John Lennon was no great Mother Theresa, all he did was make crappy songs, abuse drugs and collect big fat checks and hang out with pseudo intellectual New York artist yuppies .
@silentk1987 and you have done what to change the world? Look at what this wonderfully brilliant and funny man has done. its fine if you dont like his music, no one wants to force you to but before you go and trash an amazing person look at your own accomplishments. Sure he "made crappy music, abused drugs, and collect fat pay checks" in your opion but let me ask you this... What have you done?
@silentk1987 and i supose you have made music that is loved by millions around the world. Before you trash an amazingly brilliant and funny person look at yourself. Sure he may have only "made crappy songs, abused drugs and collected big fat checks " in your opinion but let me ask you this, what have you dont to change the world?
I was agreeing with you until you pulled out the Beatle line. You've obviously never heard more than a few songs if you think all their songs sound alike. Listen to the song "She Loves You" and then listen to "Rocky Racoon." Then maybe you'll get it. I do have respect for you saying that the man who wrote "Working Class Hero" is a bad songwriter. It takes a lot of balls to say something so retarded.
I dont think it is the right time to make such a movie, very bad idea. I can't imagine how i'd feel if i was Yoko or Sean, but probably nothing less than upset.
"Tried to be as respectful as we could throughout the shooting . . ." They shot it in front of the Dakota. Correct me if I'm wrong, cyber-world, but doesn't Yoko still live there? Eeeesh. Can you imagine? Film crews and a man portraying Mark Chapman on the very spot? Respectful?
the guy that played John Lennon is the same guy that played Dr. Arcane in the old Swamp Thing tv series.
and if you see what the actor's name is, your gonna be surprised. it's a hell of a thing that he has the same first and last name of John Lennon's killer.
@armansonx i was about to comment "even with more 70 pounds, he still looks 1o years younger." first time a few years ago that 1 of my friends asked me "how old do you think this guy is?" i answered "not more than 25". Really, is he ever gonna get old?
woow he's good looking. How can fat make someone look so different. He's a fucking freak too. How can anyone put on 4 stones so quick. Ive been struggling to put on 3 pounds and ive been purposely overeating for months. overeating
Leto was brilliant and focused playing that deranged piece of shit. The parole board should see this film and the other one "The Killing of John Lennon" right before Chapturd comes up before them every 2 years.
You know TheLifeOnMars i wish Jared Leto will play the part for the up coming anime remake of One piece. When his lossing wight. Because i wish Jared leto
His weight gain gave him gout and high cholesterol however I'm sure his cholesterol has since gone done since his diet and weight has changed since filming this movie.
@planetlychee I went to a screening of this film where Leto spoke after in a Q and A and he actually said losing the weight after filming was way easier than putting on the weight in the first place.
I love Jared Leto! I can't Believe he could Actually GAIN that much wait in such little time and then LOSE it all in even smaller amount of time im amazed!
I think this film is probably what John Lennon would have wanted. For people to see the reasons why a person would go to such extremes and what would have to happen for them to want to kill a figure of peace. This movie disturbed me, but I needed it to.
Every time i hear or read about this tragic moment in music history it makes me so sad. I loved and still love John's music, that will never die and neither will The Beatles.
Mark Chapman gets exactly what he wants in his own f#cked up mind, exposure, movies, infinity. he should have been executed the day after he was found guilty, he is right up there with Hitler and Gary Glitter in "the biggest fucking scumbags of all time". prison is too good for him , he gets to read about himself everyday ..the twisted fat c#nt
lennons a legend! and i dont give a fuck wat chapmans doing! hes a prick! and iv seen the 2 chapman films nd in them he has said that he was knowbody but know he is sombody! thats what he wanted for the whole world to know him! so secretly he will be sitting smilling in his sell! i hope he never gets out and rotts in prison! he should be forgotten about! anyway lol im going 2 liverpool in may to the beatles experience :-D u can go into lennons aunte mimis house where he was braught up! woohoo!!x
I think this particular actor is good but i will not see that movie i dont really get it how people remembers chapman over lennon really cant fucking belive it
The film doesn't moralize Chapman, you thick-headed blokes. It shows you how insane and obsessive the bugger was. It shows how much of a great mean Lennon was with the use of vintage footage of mourners with their sings. Because a movie is made about the man who killed Lennon it doesn't mean he's remember over Lennon. Ignorant statement.
