if they don’t get ryan gosling or joe anderson to play kurt, i’d go for charlie hunnam. he’s a good actor.

From the music videos that i’ve seen of Kurt no one could capture the energy and excitement. But i do agree with 20 right here Wes Scantlin does fovor Kurt, he also has a strong voice just like him, Kurt will always be missed. I feel like cryin every time i think about what Kurt is missing

Yeah, I think Courtney should play herself in the film also, she is very talented! As for Kurt’s part I would go with Wes Scantlin…the lead singer from Puddle of Mudd…he favors Kurt so much that I find it somewhat creepy, plus he can play a guitar. I honestly don’t think Gosling would make a good Kurt, he is a great actor…but looks nothing like Kurt!

Oh dear. My money’s out and so is my dad’s if Gosling portrays Kurt.
I mean, he’s a great actor but I just don’t see him as Kurt. And Scarlett Johansson as Love???

NO. This is all wrong.

Great casting, it would be awesome.

The difficulty would be in the singing scenes…how would they do it? Don’t see Ryan Gosling having that hoarse voice…but he’s such a good actor he could fake it.

Who plays Dave Grohl? Himself?

Also, in terms of deserving the attention of a movie then Kurt is probably the MOST deserving, not just him but Nirvana as a whole.

Put to one side your feelings on the music, Nirvana were bigger and made a much much more impact on society and music as a whole then all of the other bands put together.

The movie should really be about the whole of Nirvana rather than just Kurt and Courtney.

Also if Kurt is a low life hack doesn’t that put Layne on the same pedestal? Bit of irony there surely?

Layne Staley better than Kurt Cobain? Now I’ve heard it all.

Layne had a decent and unique voice, that’s ALL he had, Jerry Cantrell was far more important to AIC then Layne was.

Kurt musically was poor, but he had a great voice (Live Nirvana were great) and he was a good songwriter too.

No doubt he and Nirvana are overrated a tad, but if you’re gonna say they suck or don’t deserve this or that then please don’t void your argument by mentioning someone even worse.

Halloween of the music industry? fuck that!
as far as general musicianship goes, sure kurt and nirvana deserve zero props.. but there cultural impact, and there egarity to change shit was amazing.
who wouldv’e thought that the same 4 chords and two tone settings could make such a difference?
