I loved Whitney, so I’ll for sure be watching this. 

[FemmeFataleBrit]

I’m sure Cissy has some thoughts on this. She seems to have a problem with everything. 
PS I hope they have a Mariah scene in there.

Hmmmm, I like only 2 sings of Whitney I know it's something not to be said out loud but I never seem to gather interest in her catalog I think it's about time now.

I hope it gets in depth like “Can I be Me?” That was a good documentary. Biopics usually have too much added for flair.

OMG I wanna see this! 

Now this looks like a legit biopic unlike the Lifetime mess of a movie.

 

[K-man]

I’m gonna need this movie to be what it’s supposed to be… A MESS! 

- Arrival times (dealers) 

- Cissy Houston with her pushy ways and the whole Houston family DRAMA! 

- Clive Davis and the music industry 

- Relationship with Robyn

- The Wendy Williams interview 

- Grams (coke-cola)

- BOBBY, Being Bobby Brown and the WOMEN! 

- Life after Bobby/her last days

- Flickering of the blinds/Sleepless nights  (paranoia)

 

Focus less on the music and more on everything else!!!!

FINALLY. This looks amazing. I hope one day Britney gets one that does her justice.

Can’t wait. This looks like something that would sweep awards.
