It has been announced...

Since this film is post-production, shouldn't it just say the who plays who, rather than sticking in 'it has been announced that...'. Also Paul McCartney isn't as important a figure in this particular story as John's aunt and John's mother. They should take precedence. ----

Preview screening

There should be some mention about the preview screening in Abbey Road Studios, Studio two. Also, the fact that the attendees got to take home, a "7 single of the Nowhere Boys version of "That'll Be the Day" and "In Spite of All the Danger". --Yeepsi (Talk to me!) 19:14, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yeepsi - why not be bold and add it? I'm sure you could find reliable sources by searching Google for "Nowhere Boy" "Abbey Road Studios", such as this one. Happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 21:55, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've been told tht's not a reliable source. :P Yet, I still use it anyway. --Yeepsi (Talk to me!) 19:53, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hope you can use Abbey Road's press release or another reliable source. Good luck! GoingBatty (talk) 22:55, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cancelled sequel?

Didn't Taylor-Woods at one point consider a sequel starring Johnson again and dealing either with the years of Beatlemania or John's later life? If so, I think it should be mentioned, even if that planned sequel was cancelled somewhere down the line. --93.232.130.11 (talk) 15:23, 23 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Paul's opinion

I think as one of the first first-hand witnesses of those early days to go to, I think the reception section could benefit from a snippet of Paul's opinion on the film, if such has been published anywhere. After all, we have his opinion also at Backbeat (1994). --2003:71:4E23:7B30:B4EA:9F0F:E1B8:706B (talk) 03:58, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I see it's a bit earlier in the Release section. --2003:71:4E23:7B30:B4EA:9F0F:E1B8:706B (talk) 04:05, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
