If he somehow convinces them to participate and Morrissey refers to him upon the private screening in the same way he referred to John Rogan with 'The Severed Alliance' then we'll know it will be every bit as good if not better than 'Supersonic' I presume an Oasis reunion film if it was being honest would be have it's first present day shot in the offices of Live Nation or similar's banker's offices?

Just watched it today. It was fantastic! I love how they went through every single step of the way and documented it in full. Mat Whitecross did a great job highlighting every aspect of the band in the pre-Knebworth era, even the most commonly told parts, like it was all new. Best part of the film was probably the footage. I loved the Knebworth footage and I can't believe how much they had stored up, in general, but it was used perfectly. Great film all around. I'd love to see one be done on the BHN and SOTSOG eras but one can dream

Finally.
I watched it tonight in Santiago, Chile. We had to drive for two hours to make it to theater but it was worth it. I love this band.
We see things they'll never see.

Watched it twice and can't stand the way the story's coming to an end to be honest. I know that was the idea behind the film to only capture the early years as Oasis's greatest moment and all, but the way it's narrated makes you feel like after Knebworth the band is handed straight to the evil corporated industry forever, everybody goes away, the brothers become miserable rich vaginas, their souls got eaten by the devil and they only are doing it for the money onward. It doesn't even mention fucking Be Here Now. To me the real phemonemon of Oasis was that after the 90's, they stayed together for many years, never really made a bad album, never followed a trend, they stayed true to themselves, changed their lifestyles, get their shit together, quit drugs, always had number 1 singles, filled River Plate Stadium, Wembley multiple nights, their fanbase got bigger with every generation coming, their 90's hits became anthems for many generations and they are still doing great and both making cool music. Of course they had better and worse periods, but all in all there is no way that the Oasis story has an sad ending to it. To me the movie is a bit like ' Ok, so here is a little story about 4 or 5 lucky bastards who got very popular in the 90's, took loads of drugs, spend their money and they were funny, but then you know how it is. The money and tabloids came along... " Is this really a story of Oasis ? I don't think so. They became a legendary rock band ffs, with great legacy all over the world. Although i really enjoyed the first half of it, loads of funny footage from the early years, great storytelling from both Gallaghers, as usual. It's just my thoughts on how in ends. It made me a bit sad, and that supposed the film about Oasis in the 90's so what the fuck was sad about it, that they become millionaires ? Oh poor boys from Burnage.. Now they are millionaires... And of course everything changes as soon as you become globaly popular, The Beatles story even proves it, it's nothing new. I think Oasis dealt pretty good with it afterall. Btw. There is a new interview with Noel dropped on you tube couple of days ago. HC era, very interesting, shows their approach for making new music after BHN and SOTSOG. Seems like they still were capable of having fun even after 1996 Take a look.

"I switched off then. I was just amassing money" - Noel "money bags" gallagher. that is pretty much what happened tbf, maybe not straight after knebworth but it was there, plus they dont mention the later years because it was quite frankly pale in comparison to the early years, they only went down from knebworth tbh, like Ive said before, its abit revisionist history to not mention the later years even in a 5 minute wrap up at the end but they clearly didnt want to go into that side of oasis. I can see where you coming from about oasis after the 90s but to many people, oasis simply limped on after BHN, they didnt really take the band anywhere new, it was all very safe and standard, they lost their passion for the music. Liam and Noel (more so Noel) lost some of their charm once they made it into the big time, they simply werent ordinary guys anymore, you couldnt relate to them or get behind them as much once they climbed out of that hole.

It's safe to say that from Noel that he was only doing it for the money from then, cause you go aaahh ok so that's why it wasn't that good, fair enough, he explains himself with it. But i think the truth is every record they made they wanted to be the best, they sang from their heart and really enjoyed making music together up until 2009. The loved being on stage, they loved doing what they were doing, and they didn't stop after Knebworth, even though their golden era was over. That's what i enjoy about Oasis and that's what missing in the movie. They loved making music and they were never giving a fuck. In the early 90's or in 2005, they were still doing what they liked to do. Maybe HC and DBTT was the best they possible could have come up with at the time ? So what ? It's got nothing to do with money. It's not that easy to write 6 albums like Morning Glory you see. I really respect them for playing a game up until Dig Out Your Soul. Although i'm not sure Andy's and Gem's songwriting helped to carry those records or was it the opposite, but you can't change the past.

I dont think there was much else to tell after knebworth in the long run, they were successful yes but it was a long road down to the breakup and would have to address people leaving etc, they basically told the story of a group of lads coming from nothing to having everything which is good enough, after that its run of the mill stuff. I think Noel had dreams and desires of being successful, that motivated him and gave him inspiration in his music, once he reached the goal where do you go from there? what motivates you to go some place else when youve got everything you wanted? I think Noel etc enjoys making music but that driving force was removed, while Noels songs have always been pretty good, hes not writing the caliber of music he once did, victory defeated oasis.

I think they could have included the build-up to BHN to end the movie. Even Noel admits that Oasis peaked when DYKWIM was released, and that was the real high point. The film could have covered the mass hysteria and hype to the release of BHN, then end the film when Princess Di and Britpop died, but in a way that misses the point of the film, which was to celebrate the rise of Oasis, and not the slow beginning of the end of Oasis.

I think they ended the documentary in the right place. They kind of laid the groundwork for where Oasis went as things got more "corporate" as guys like Coyle left. But, if they had gone on to talk about Be Here Now, I think it would have had to go on and conclude with Bonehead and Guigsy leaving the band, which wouldn't have made for a great ending.
As it is, by the end of the doc, I was really sad. After seeing all of that footage and re-living the fun it was to be a fan of Oasis during that time. But then you realize that Noel is probably right when he talks about how unlikely it is for any band like them to do what they did with the way the music business has changed. And it's depressing to think about how I will probably never feel that way about a band or artist the way I felt about being a fan of Oasis.

Watched this again last night. The first time round in the cinema we nearly had a fight in true rock n roll style cos of some idiots behind, meaning I didn't take it all in. Anyway, back to the film...
Noticed FITB this time as read on here which seemed strange considering that wasn't about until SOTSOG. Also noticed some footage of Finsbury Park in 2002! Also, still dislike how it makes out oasis absolutely failed after knebworth and that their brotherly love drove them into the ground... Ye but not until 13 years later!! Anyway, still enjoyed it on the whole
