I was bothered by the complete absence of Elton's Band in Rocket Man. I don't think there was even one speaking line from one of his band members which all played a huge role in his success. I saw RM first, so was pleased to see that BR was inclusive of the band in the movie, and not just a Freddie only story with a passing shot of the band playing in the background.
Elton's band was fantastic and extremely talented. His band could have been successful with a different singer in my opinion, just as Queen could have without Freddie.
