While appreciating it was a clumsy attempt at humour, one post here has been hidden. Please remain respectful to the artists involved.

Looks like the Rush movie has potential, it'll be interesting to see if someone puts up a good actor for Alex Lifeson

With Kevin Spacey as Anderson in recent years

Although if there was a movie about Jethro Tull, it would be pointless to include scenes from nowadays

Unless there was something important about their Christmas album that would be deserving of a movie LOL

I'm surprised no one has posted Will Ferrel as Chad Smith yet.  It's been done to death so I won't bother.  I'm just surprised is all. LOL

Tom Hanks as Neil Peart!

Actually, on second thought, the whole 70s beard phase wouldn't look so great with Tom. Otherwise, the resemblance is striking. What's more, it could be a really good movie if set around the tragic Test For Echo days. Hanks can act.
