Why no kino about him?
>>
>rockstar in the late 60s
>enjoys 2 years or so of fame
>goes schizophrenic
>gets kicked out of his own band
>releases a couple of modest solo projects
>does nothing for 30 years until he dies
aside from the scene of him appearing on the recording sessions of WYWH, there's not much to show
just a depressing story with no payoff to appeal to normies
he's not even that famous tbqh, especially with younger demographics
I'd say a movie about the band would be far more appealing, especially if it centered around Waters, but his political views are way too extreme for that to ever happen

I love Waters but there's no way in hell his story is more interesting than Syd's
He literally had to smash Syd's story with his own for The Wall because the rest of the band rightfully called him out and said his life story wasn't interesting enough to be told so he had to blend it with Syd's
>>215878587
Kek sounds kino
Btw Dave and his wife are absolute bootlickers, Roger is not an anti-semite he's just based

It would make a great misery porn film. No redemption, just a downward spiral all because of a bad decision during the most formative period of your life.

Pink Floyd got lucky because they replaced him with the much superior David Gilmour.

PF make other bands look like out-of-control retards

Rog poisoned Syd then stole his band.

>>215880359
>>hey cool drugs like experiment with it
>>underestimate effects, suffer lowkey ego death
that's not what happened. Syd had a bunch of groupies and fans who were dosing him without his knowledge (and I do mean dosing, like dropping acid on his breakfast) or consent, on top of whatever he was also taking by himself.

>>215880359
I should also mention that people didn't cut ties with Syd as much as he wanted those ties cut, but there were people trying to get him back in the saddle up until the late 70s, I think.
