"Joe Anderson should play Kurt" Holy shit, good call. "Zac Efron is too gay to even attempt to embody a legend like Kurdt Cobain" Kurt had latent gay tendencies for most of his life, so a gay actor wouldn't be far from the mark. Oh, wait—you were probably using "gay" as an invective, which Kurt absolutely hated. "We all know Courtney Love and Dave Ghrol killed Cobain" Really! I was under the impression that it was a bullshit conspiracy theory cooked up by misogynists and people unwilling to accept that their idol would commit suicide, despite the fact that such an act was blatantly telegraphed throughout his music, his art, and his family history.

Dudes. It was a joke. (Though probably not out of the realm of possibility.) And demonking: Where do you think your money goes when you BUY HIS JOURNALS?

this is purely an insult to everyone who enjoys the deep tones of grunge in 10 different ways 1.Zac Efron is too gay to even attempt to embody a legend like Kurdt Cobain 2.Zac Efron is too well know and looks nothing like Kurdt Cobain 3.We all know Courtney Love and Dave Ghrol killed Cobain 4.If we were meant to know the lives of musicians and stars they would tell us 5.It would seriously mock everything that lovers of real music stand for 6.Aren't we all waiting to see how MTV would destroy fact in a movie about him? 7.If you are that interested in knowing about his life BUY HIS JOURNALS 8.The band is probably not getting paid for this 9.It is probably another ploy to get drug money for Courtney Love 10.Why must we insist on mooching money off of dead anti-social icons when we have alive emo icons we can mooch off of uil hopefully they kill themselves instead of just talking about it?

Totally right! Zac is ugly and he can't play Kurt! I know someone and she HATES music like Nirvana but she LOVES Zac Efron she would watch the movie and say it's great but she would have no idea who Kurt Cobain is. I hate her

Makayla: Zac Efron CANNOT play Kurt, it would be a disgrace to humanity!especially Kurt. Me: I COMPLETELY agree! if they cast Zac, a bunch of little 10 year olds who don't even know who Kurt is will have a crush on him just because Zac played him!

there's nothing wrong with making a movie about Kurt... if u feel as though it is... that's ur opinion, man. I personally don't know how that could be insulting to kurt. They're trying to honor him-not disgrace him. Havin zac efron as kurt (in my opinion) would b an insult...

Mr. Tumnus (James McAvoy) is now rumored to play Kurt. Maybe there's hope for a live-action Monster/Dave.

Not really. But if Cameron Crowe directs: Matt Dillon is Kurt, Brigid Fonda is Courtney, Campbell Scott is Dave Grohl, Nancy Wilson is Nancy Wilson, and the corner of 19th Ave. E and Thomas is The Center of the World.

FremontVW, you have thought about this waaaaaay too much.

But my real vision is this: Robert Zemeckis directs. Brad Pitt as the voice of Kurt (CGI). Jolie as the voice of Courtney (CGI). Brad Garrett as the voice of Krist (CGI). Dakota Fanning as Girl Entering Grunge DreamWorld in Search of the Real Christmas (live action).

No, I got it. Alexandro Jodorowsky directs and stars. Verne Troyer (Mini Me) as The Wind and Sails.

Jim Henson directs. Kermit as Kurt. Miss Piggy as Courtney. Animal as Dave Grohl. Fozzie as Krist.

Wes Anderson directs (flannel would look TERRIFIC with his eye). Bill Murray as Kurt. Owen Wilson as Courtney. Anjelica Huston as Kim Warnick.
