Rob Pattinson to play Kurt Cobain in biopic | Sympatico.ca inMovies.ca

Thoughts? Apparently Courtney Love approves of this but I still can't get the Vampire/Twilight image of him out of my head

I'll definitely be taking an interest in kurt cobains life then.

He definitely looks like him i think, but i don't know... I think this has the potential to go really badly. I've only seen him in Harry Potter (never seen Twilight and don't particularly plan on it) so I don't know if I can judge for sure.

Hoping for the best! For his sake. If he screws up this role, it'll ruin him.

The role has already been offered to Ryan Gosling...

No?

Courtney Love chooses actor to play Kurt Cobain | News | NME.COM

January 2008. There's a fair few links other than the NME. Gosling and Scarlett came from the bitches mouth, I mean horses mouth..

And the hotel incident is a whole other story...he OD'd on rufies. You forget everything that happened the day before. Who always had a load of rufies? Courtney.

I'm sure to someone who hasn't actually looked up all this stuff I sound like a crazed conspiracy theorist, but this is one of the few that I buy into. Everyone said Kurt was happy, loved spending time with his daughter, and was looking forward to making new music. Quite the opposite of a depressed guy who hates life.

After taking a shit load of heroin I'm sure your handwriting would change and go a bit wonky, I recall the handwriting being a bit messy towards the end. Heroin + nerves of killing yourself..
Even though he had a lot of heroin, stranger things have happened. Courtney had motive so I'm not 100% on it, but it just seemed like a suicide. I've not actually seen the documentary in a fair while.. so I can't remember what happened in the hotel. But he climbed the Exodus wall because he was being made to get clean by his wife, climbed the wall... and then killed himself.

Also Ryan Gosling is Canadian and Pattison is British..

+ I don't actually think Pattison could grow a beard..

I will refuse to watch it if they cover his death as a suicide...which I know they will. I could care less that it was Rob playing him.

I usually don't buy into these death theories for musicians and what not, but after reading some very convincing articles pointing out very suspicious holes in the story, I'm convinced Courtney killed him. All the way.

Plus, I will not approve of anything she approves of. That woman disgusts me.
