Too bad the storyline about Tony's unrequited love wasn't resolved


We just sort of see him walking away when his love interest is hugging Brian, but in the end no one "gets" her.

reply

To me it looked like with that look he gives Karen at the concert when Brian comes on stage, that he ''lets her go''. But I definitely don't see a couple Karen/Brian as well. Would be interesting if others did see them ending up together.

I totally see them ending up together, and i kinda see tony being left to fade away in a sense, which is tragic, but thats what happens sometimes.

This is one aspect of the movie that was left unresolved, but hey this is a rock n' roll movie not a love story.

Plus it leaves a lot of room for a sequel OR the viewer's fantasy.

If Karen doesn't want him I'll gladly take Tony off her hands.

You'd have to fight me for him.......grrrrrr

How's about we come to some agreement for sharing him because I'm not the fighting type :P

reply

Aw, no c'mon, no agreement. I want to see you ladies handbag fighting. Powerful women do fight for their men with handbags. (It was done for Ray, remember?)

Yeah, but I'm like Kerry - not good at fighting. Plus, I'm a pacifist . I'm all for sharing......week on, week off?

Actually, I wouldn't mind having Luke, he is, after all, closer to my age! Plus, I'm loving that sexy swagger

Sounds good to me HashRouge. All we need now is a rota LOL

reply

You got it Kerry. Women should so run the country....we believe in SHARING, not blowing each other up

If Maggie Thatcher or Angela Merkel ever were informed about this interesting point in our female psyches?

Ray Simms - to good to share

Well...they must be the exceptions that prove the rule
Right, so you want Ray, and Kerry can have Brian as I have decided Luke is definately better for me, being so youthful and all....

You're probably right. *g*

I'm glad Beano had his own bimbo in the film. Looks like nobody wants him.

Hey, *sniffle sniffle* Can I please have Tony??? He's more my type and then there's the fact that Stephen Rea is hot (even if he is 42 years older than me). XD

reply

Oh my God, how old ARE you?
Maybe, like me, you'd be better off with Luke? Except, YOU CAN'T HAVE BECAUSE I WANT HIM. So there

reply

I'm 18. I wasn't too keen on Luke so u can keep him

reply

Fine with me. I'm 17 by the way

reply

Cool, I thought you'd be older for some reason. Dont ask me why though.

reply

Its my educated manner.....

reply

Probably yeah. I've had people guessing my age and being miles off. The worst one was a woman who asked me if i'm 27 cheeky bint. I was 16 at the time.

reply

Oh, I can beat that . I was at Cambridge Festival with my little sister last year (I was 16, and she was 12), and this old guy turned round and asked if I was her mum . I was VERY offended, although got some consolation from the fact that he was VERY drunk. But still

reply

Dont you just hate it when people do that. Idiots mostly guessing at my age, or perverts

reply

True true.

reply

I think unfortunately he will just have to go on loving her from afar because his little smile and nod when Brian comes on stage towards Karen means that he has given up on her because he realises that she is majorly still hooked on Brian. But he's so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!

reply

Too bad I wasn't there...I would have snatched him (Tony) up in a heartbeat!

Instead of fighting over Tony, he might appreciate it if you girls engaged in a threesome with him. After all, he is a disspiated old rocker.
