I love documentaries. I am 48. Have not really been into the Backstreet Boys for years.
Got to see this doc and was really happy with it. Some great stuff, some great background history and info. The argument between Nick & Brian was harsh and sad. Nick has a wickedly abusive mouth on him. Got to give this group respect. They are the real deal.

I don't think there really is a firm resolution to it, as Brian's condition will be on-going. I think he is just continuing therapy and treatments.
I'm glad they addressed it in the movie though. I could tell something was up for awhile with Brian's voice. But I don't think Brian and the guys have to worry too much as far as the fans are concerned. We won't quit liking or supporting them because sometimes Brian's voice cracks. After 20 years, we are all in this together :)

I also loved this documentary. It showed another side to the Boys and showed their strength in overcoming their struggles. But that argument between Nick and Brian ended up traumatizing me terribly. And I didn't think it would. For some reason, it brought back some very bad memories of my parents arguing and cussing each other out when I was a child. And to think, these two are suppose to be close friends, here they're arguin like they're enemies. I think Nick should of been a little bit more understanding of Brian's voice issues. Just hearing the harshness and intense anger between Brian and Nick brings me back to when I was a child listening to my parents arguing exactly like this. There were times when even my own father yelled at me with the same intensity. It always made me feel bad and overwhelmed. Because of that, I suffer from anxiety and depression. I always hate it when I hear people arguing and screaming at each other. I'd just get up and leave. For the rest of the documentary after that scene, I felt like I was sad child again after the fighting would stop. It took me quite a while to recover.
shareIIRC, Nick Carter had a lot of resentment because Brian was expecting everyone to be supportive of him when he was struggling, but he wouldn't show the same courtesy to Nick when he had his own problems.
shareI don't think it had to do with support specifically. When Nick was talking to Brian calmly afterward and saying he believes Brian will get his voice back, that is his form of support. In Nick's book, he talks about the support his fellow BSB members have given him, so it's not like Brian hasn't given him support either. Nick was just talking about how he felt he had to get better for everyone else.
I think Nick was frustrated with the fact that they hadn't discussed Brian's voice issues. With the way it was edited, it looked like the initial argument ensued when they were arguing over the song Soldier. There was some animosity among the two of them at that moment in the boardroom. I don't know what Nick said right before Brian told him to "Shut the...... up", because it was cut out. That however, was when Nick lost it.
The problem is, like the girl in this thread, Nick also grew up in an environment where there was a lot of yelling and shouting. Perhaps his parents grew up in this type of environment as well. Sometimes those types of behaviours are learned and passed on.
