Slightly less makeup applied in this one. I wonder who got the Razzle cameo?

Really looking forward to this thread becoming a sociology article about what kind of conditions lead these four youngsters from 'Merica to rebel against their upbringing.

There's every chance they were just some dopey kids who were... too young to fall in love.

Fantastic book, but I don't have high hopes for the movie. Even though the lads were consulted and have given their blessing, I just don't expect it to capture the lunacy fully. It'll be too glossy and not nearly manky enough.

Sweet, looking forward to this! Was at the Lego movie 2 at the weekend and was thinking it was the 1st time I've heard Motley Crue in years, nice coincidence.

Pent by name, pent up by nature. I find the ride usually helps or if that's not available a good hard wank followed by a relaxing poo. It's a forum, not facebook. A place to talk shite about metal and nothing more. Chill the beans..

I can identify with him on that. It's a strange one indeed.

Funnily enough I would have more of an interest in watching this than LOC, even though I've never liked any motley crue and do like mayhem/burzum/darkthrone etc

Wouldn't mind seeing it on the big screen.

Out on Netflix tomorrow, get the jack Daniels at the ready.

There's a shocker, the main stream media in America aren't too pleased with the movie, with the treatment of women and drug taking.

What did they think it was gonna be about??

At least it's not sugar coated too much by sounds of things.

All in all sounds like a night in the venue in Belfast 25 years ago!!  8)

Post by: Emphyrio on March 21, 2019, 03:18:52 PM
Starts off with the squirting scene, apparently, so at least  they're not holding back the filth. I dunno if the Nikki tagging in Tommy banging a wan is included. It was hilarious in the book but in this day and age, that's rape. And if that's included.....there will be uproar.
Title: Re: The Dirt
Post by: Snare on March 21, 2019, 06:17:00 PM
I guess I won't be watching this with herself! Thanks for the heads up as I'm not familiar with the book I'm afraid. That's tomorrow night's entertainment sorted anyway, looking forward to it.
Title: Re: The Dirt
Post by: Blitzer666 on March 23, 2019, 01:23:52 AM
Wasn't really as graphic as I thought it was going to be. It skipped a lot of the book, such as the bullying of Vince and Mick by Nikki.
Its basically the Nikki show.
Was good enough movie tho. And the wife says Vince actor wasn't good enough looking.  :-[

Post by: Cryptic Stench on March 23, 2019, 07:03:28 AM
Load of bollocks, really really cheesy in places. Some of the "acting" is atrocious too, pissed ourselves laughing at some of the scenes that should've been emotional.

I suppose it generally covers what's in the book but it's handled in Hollywood fashion and aimed at an audience that probably have never heard of the band.




Title: Re: The Dirt
Post by: Mooncat on March 23, 2019, 05:46:54 PM
I see they left the rape scene from the book out of the movie. Nikki is trying to say he was on drugs at the time and so stories, "may have been embellished, or even completely made up". He then doubles down by saying he was also on drugs at the time he was giving the interviews for what would become The Dirt (book). Guy is completely and utterly full of shit, always was.

As for the movie, I found it pretty enjoyable from a really shallow perspective. No depth at all, but given it's shot by the director from Jackass, he captures all of the bad behavior pretty well. Similar to Bohemian Rhapsody and Lords of Chaos, if you're looking for a documentary-specific piece of film-making then it's prob not for you. If you're looking for an enjoyable romp generally based on the history of the band then it's a fun evening movie to have a beer to.

Wait a minute, I don't know a lot about the history of the band, did they actually put out a book that incriminates them of a rape?

I thought the lad who played Vince was an atrocious actor. Worth a look if you've two hours to kill but it glossed over so much stuff - but then again I don't think any film would do justice to that book.

Kind of sick of the above statement. It's wheeled out for everything. "It's a fun movie" So when do we get something with a bit of substance?

Thought the actors weren't great in the main. Apart from Doc and Tommy Lee.  Yer man as Ozzy was pretty good to. In fairness, they covered most of the important details pretty well, albeit in a Hollywood kind of way. It was always gonna be a tough movie to pull off, as unlike Bohemian Rhapsody, there was no big moment to build up to.

I enjoyed it for the most part but it was very much the Nikki Sixx story, and thought yer man had too much of a smug head on him throughout, which annoyed me.
Title: Re: The Dirt
Post by: Blitzer666 on March 24, 2019, 12:07:26 PM
I thought Ozzy actor was the worst bit.

It was the Nikki show tho, thought Mick was pretty cool, and amusing.

Didn't say anything about him trying to kill himself on the same night as Vince's crash.

I'm sure I'll watch it again tho, Mick and Tommy actors were pretty good

Thought the guy playing Tommy Lee had the look and him down to a T. His section what a day on tour is like for him was great  :laugh:
Yeah when the guy playing Ozzy first comes out I honestly thought they'd gotten Ozzy for it till he got closer to the camera.

What's funny is that Nikki probably had a word on what to edit out etc and probably thought this version made him look like less of a cunt... so you can only imagine what the full story is like considering he looked like an unmerciful cunt in this regardless!

I get what you're saying, but then I'm just commenting on what it is. It's up to the filmmakers to make something with more substance. You and I can only just comment on what is actually released, and speculate on what could hypothetically be released.


As for the actors, I thought they were pretty ok. There's a doc on YouTube about them called Decade of Decadence that I checked out straight after the film though, and every Motley member to a man has wayyy more personality than the actors playing them.

Genuinely thought the same thing myself--then when it showed him closer up it looked nothing like him - the accent was shite as well.

His Ozzy accent was part Brummie, part Aussie.

Vince actor was rubbish.

Really enjoyed the movie for what it was, though.

Thought it was a bit too quickly paced with important events having about five minutes screen time and then on to the next one. Suppose that's always going to happen when you need to cover 20 years in two hours

Decent enough though, apart from the fucking atrocious actor playing Vince

Was your man playing Vince that bad?,he didnt jump out at me as being particularly bad tbh.

Gave it a watch there over the weekend... the acting seemed pretty poor, exceptions to the guys playing Tommy Lee and Mick Mars who managed to bring some personality. Vince Neil was fairly vomit inducing, absolute muck. The whole film was pretty fleeting and felt cheesy as fuck, but then again I suppose that's the subject material.

Also the fact that it didn't really build towards a climactic moment bothered me... the film ends by saying "And they continued to play for another 20 years". Feels like they lost interest themselves when putting the script together
