maybe you should get the facts strait before you make this movie. Courtney Love is obviously praising "last days" because she wants people to think it was still a suicide when she clearly hired a hitman to kill him. Honestly i dont think you should release this movie

i live in america and the movie hasnt been released yet soo i cant talk about the movie but really i think if ur a kurt cobain fan and u truly understand wut he went through and the pure angst of his life u should be happy this movie is coming out wether the name is the last days, or kurt cobains movie or sumtihn..it really sickens me wen i think of courtney getting the money but have u ever thought that maybe Gus Van Sant changed the name soo courtney couldnt get money but w.e i have the highest respect for kurt and he was truly a great person at heart soo just respect the fact the movie was made and it keeps kurts story going little longer soo to most he will never fade away thats all i got to say..Peace, Love, Empathy

shuper guena la pelicula.........

Posted by vivianita | June 6, 2005 3:15 PM

i think that this is a good thing..because it will show people how great kurt cobain was... but in order to make this..you have to know basically everything about him and her relationship and its stupid unless the creator was a friend of kurts at the time and kurt told him everything bout him and courtney...Courtney is a fucked up lil slut that MURDERED KURT and if i ever meet her shes fkn GONE im gonna shoot her in the head and stab her with fkn needles!!!!

It's a good idia... I wonder if the movie will be played in Greece...

Posted by gRaVe_mc | June 10, 2005 6:18 AM

I think the movie was made wrong.
Because some people believe it was suicide.
While others believe it was murder.

I think it's unfair to people who believe in the murder theory.

I think it's unfair that the money rolls into Courtney. And was made for Courtney's pleasure.

I havent seen the movie yet and I cant wait to neither, based loosley on Kurt Cobain? It should enquire good watching then. I think all of you swearing about things you dont know anything about should concern themselves with other things. Who were they what were they? No-one knows, so why piss and moan about what you think is and what you think isn't.

It is easy to believe when the fake seems real, what if it's a mind processed not to feel?

I think a movie even related to Cobain's death is long over due. Even though as I say this I know I speak for millions of mindless idiots, its obvious kurt did not kill himself, the facts are all right there, on the other hand people's personal opinions on the matter shouldn't deduct from the larger picture here. I can't find the words to say, but this movie ( in my humble opinion) could be the greatest thing ever. He had such a huge impact on millions of lives, and the mystery of those 'last days' from when he left the rehab till the unsuspected 'suicide/murder'. This will help feed our imaginations on what we all think really happened, but nobody really knows because nobody can honestly say they where there.

Posted by Nameless | June 15, 2005 1:59 PM

No one has any solid proof that courtney killed kurt, i disagree. kurt had other enemies, like axle rose. Courtney is always blamed for everything, but no one can prove it, otherwise she would be in jail for murder. think of what Nirvana would have been like now if kurt never died, maybe it was for the better.

Posted by Anonymous | June 16, 2005 3:01 AM

Okay first off just because you all have your own opinions doesnt mean you need to try and force them on other people. and i dont want to hear any of you guys' bullshit until you've read Heavier than Heaven or Love and Death, or even Route 666 just so you get an understanding of where Kurt Cobain came from and grew up. Heavier than Heaven is the most unbiased account of kurt's life that ive come across and ive read it 11 times. but you really need to get a good grip on what you're saying and stop getting so hotheaded when you know virtually nothing about how either kurt or courtney grew up. face it, most of you were still toddlers pissing your pants. so you dont know. so you dont need to speak. just shut up and be glad. and dont forget to pray for Frances. even Courtney. god and whatnot knows they both need it.

Posted by Rose | June 16, 2005 8:30 PM

ya hi

id just like 2 say that i personally think that making this movie isnt such a badd idea bcuz while it obviously wont b 100% correct it will still show ppl 'something' like what happened, and those who werent influenced by Him can get a glimpse of His life, although im shur He wuddnt agree 2 any of this had His BITCH wife not killed him. N E waiz even if the whole movie is garbage 2 sum it may b worth a shot and its not like we His followers will believe it anyway and any1 who thinks badd of Him can go straight 2 hell.

P.S. Fuk courtney

I dont think love killed kurt but she drove him to suicide thats for sure...and thats even worse than hirin a hit man.
She is such a fuckin whore who should be skinned alive and fed to wild dogs!!!

Posted by john | June 27, 2005 1:00 PM

hi i'm a gr8 kurt cobain fan and in my opinion we should respect this film because it is keeping the memory of a legend still going. We cannot judge kurt cobain's death because everybody knows how his life was fucked up. So just think about what have you learnt from his life, his lyrics and his thoughts. He is the meaning of a world destroyed by any one of us. Respect everyone's life. R.I.P Mr.Kurt Cobain hope u're in a better world

Posted by Chris | June 28, 2005 2:16 PM

should be a nice film from th trailer but we should always respect kurt as cris said ( he i my friend from my town who told me about the film "Last Days"
R.I.P Kurt u will be the best forever!

Posted by Justin | June 28, 2005 2:39 PM

I just wanna say that this movie is a great idea...even though it will be wrong because courtney love is a fuckin whore and kurt did not commit suicide!!!It is just something that will keep a great legend living!! R.I.P Kurt Cobain & Fuck you Courtney Love!!!!!!!

Posted by George | June 28, 2005 4:18 PM

none of you understand anything tha kurdt kobain stood for, do you? do you honestly think that he would have wanted a movie based on himself. ask yourselves that: would kurdt have asked for this? you guys dont know anything about him. but what i do know is that he didnt give a flying shit about fame. not in a million years would he even want a movie on him. all that prick, Gus Van Sant, wants is to exploit his death in order to make more money. it's not about respect. gus has disgraced kobains name forever. and i for one am boycotting that film. and i will persuade as many people to do the same. and i suggest that you do the same. and if you do watch that movie, i suggest sneeking into it. i dont beleive that we should help that prick make more money off of kurdt that he does not deserve. that is all i have to say. and all you people that think that it's a good idea to make a movie and are willing to pay to watch it, all i got to say to you is: you are a disgrace on kurdt, nirvana, and every true fan out ther. only the true fans would understand where i'm coming from. i just hope that after you do pay to watch that movie, you hang your head in shame. and i swear if i see any of you fucking pricks that think its a good idea to make a movie on kurdt and all of a sudden become the big ass fan of him, just becuz of a movie, i swear to that fuck on the cross that hangs in the church. i will personally kick your ass. and if i ever see gus on the street or anywer for that matter. i will personally give him an ass wooping just for kurdt kobain. a legend of his own time.

this is to you kurdt. may your soul rest in peace.

Posted by Omar | June 30, 2005 3:38 AM

hey omar i really dont agree with you. you're really talking negative about KURT COBAIN, and i think that gus doesn't need any money cos he is already a gr8 film maker. and i think KURT COBAIN would be happy about making a film about his own life so all the world will know what sort of life he had. i remind you that KURT COBAIN himself wrote songs about his life whih he made money out of... so man there's no use of being such an idiot and talk like that. KURT COBAIN FOREVER

i would really like to see the movie cause i really like Kurt Cobain and Nirvana and i want to listen, read, or watch anything there is about them. and i do like michael pitt as an actor and i think he'll do a good job portraying someone like Kurt Cobain in the movie. just my opinion.

Posted by Mike | July 12, 2005 6:27 PM

such a great film, specially inspired on kurt cobain, love every scene of the movie

Posted by kari | July 19, 2005 12:24 PM

that movie is totaly rong..kurt cobain wassent in his home in the last days of he's life..

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2005 12:17 PM

look...I know you guys r all really gutted...but I HIGHLY doubt coutney wanted cobain dead...I mean, they were married dude..I no she wanted a divorce..but that was because she never saw him!! Becasue he fucked off most the time from her...and u cnt explain why shes so fucked up!! COZ UR NOT HER!! So...ya know..I aint stickin up 4 her...but Him neither...just sayin...I´ve read heavier than heaven...its amazing..ok?? OK!!

Posted by Natty | August 27, 2005 5:04 PM

ohhh meeen! obviously love wanted kurdt dead.. kurdt had everything, a band, a doughter, fame.
coutney killed him and thats all... she's a murder

Posted by Chris | September 4, 2005 3:21 PM

en que fecha se estrena la pelicula?

Posted by carolina | September 18, 2005 9:22 PM

Ok....listen up..im a huge nirvana fan,luv their music and iv great respect 4 kurt and courtney! All of u ignorant piss heads who tink dat courtney killed kurt r jus jealous cuz he lovd her and he spent a part of his life 4 her! so grw up!and admit dat u envy and despise her bcuz of ignorance and imaturity. If she really hired som1 2 kill him,don't u tink dat it wuld'v been justified by now!cuz as crazy as she is,if she really did it,she wuld hav slipped up and d evidence wuld hav been found! so jus b happy dat d movie is comin out 4 2 main reasons - 1)more awareness of kurt and his troubled life 2) d money wil go 2 courtney and evidently reach frances so she'l benefit. Peace,love,empathy = )

nirvana rocks! kurt was murdered!!!!!!!

Posted by ~ | November 30, 2005 7:06 PM

hi! it's about time that a movie about Kurts death is out, and with the discordance of everyone that he deserve... i've been reading some material on the web about the murder theory, and it's quite convincing, all the suspects, especially one of them, had a purpose... and many attemps... let Chris and Dave participate in a movie about Kurt, they knew his dreams as a band leader, his hopes for Nirvana and that Kurt was not suicidal... i haven't see "last days", but i'm really looking foward to... last of all, i would like to remind everyone that Kurt and Courtney have a daughter that should not be hurt by some of us fans might say... goodluck frances!!

Look I am a true Nirvana fan. Watching the movie omar doesn't make me any less a fan as you, I do agree that if I see people who love Nirvana cause of the movie I would get mad but you just need to respect that. As for the murder theory I do believe he was murdered you want proof go to www.justiceforkurt.com and get your fuckin proof and leeanna want to reasons this movie is gonna suck for us. 1/ its going to kill Kurts rep, so awareness for his death is goin be more of a joke then a serious case 2/ Courtney will spend the money before she can give it to France and one more thing you know what Kurt didnt want Fame yet you assholes are always talking about him BAM theres your fuckin fame now

Posted by Michael Mota | January 26, 2006 11:03 AM

Cobain might be dead but nirvana lives on. Nirvana is still the best band ever and there songs still get played on the radio over here in England and everytime they do the volume goes right up full blast, Lithium up loud is the best. Another go band is Silverchair, there Australia's answer to Nirvana. There brilliant but they cant replace Nirvana.
