Someone already guessed #1. I have NO IDEA on #2, but I think #3 is Urban Cowboy.
Yep, correct with #3!! 
These smilies are fun 
#2 was a gang film. That cap posted is one of the famous lines from that film.

I love BH but I will admit at the time I was like what the hell is that. 
Do I fine them boring no, I think the shows they put on now are full of energy and kept my interest up without BH. Like it or not, BH got alot of flack in the beginning until he was more accepted and his playing outshined the way he looked. Can't argue with him being a little shocking if you've never seen him before and that could have hurt sale yes.
Plus it was more venomous between the old members back then. People who were Slash fans remained that and wouldn't even think of giving Axl a chance, beit there are some still this way but it's not like it was back then, IMO. I think most of them are in better places now and it really comes across more now then back then. Axl hasn't ranted on stage like he did in 02 in Albany, he may feel the same but it hasn't shown on tour, he isn't kicking people out wearing Slash shirts, that makes a big different IMO, winning over fans that are pro Slash or old GNR.

I dunno about that, his look was scrutinized and was the bud of alot of jokes.
so what you're saying is that if we had the greatest rock record of the 21st century in 2002, it owuld have been shit for the band because Axl sucked live?
Axl always sucked live.
What I am saying is that was a baaad first impression and first impression of a rock star that was out of spotlight for years and wasn't a good one. Had that album been on sale after that, it could have affected the sales, not only did he sound terrible but even I was in shock, when I saw him. For me it wouldn't have affected me buying the album but for people who were die hard old GNR fans, it totally would have. Now, his look is more digested and their tours they did in 06/07 did extremely well. Think about it, not only was it a shock at what they looked like, the tour tanked. I think a terrible time to have released it.
I don't agree with Axl always sucked live. Some of the 90's shows were awesome.

I see alot of mention about 2002. Do you really think that would have been a good time? Axl was under heavy fire for his look and also what the band was made up of. This is not disrepect to anyone but you had Axl looking the way the did, BH [as great as he is, that was the first time people really saw him], Finck was more outrageous look and Tommy was wearing fishnets.
I do think that Axl was correct when he said that the world was not ready for GNR in 2002. The VMA performance wasn't that great, his voice was terrible.
I dunno, it would have been great if he released it then but think he has gained more respect for his look now and his voice is tons better, the band's look was tamed down. I think if there was an optimal time it would have been 06, I think 06 and forward they have gained more people that are interested then in 02.
#1178 Re: Guns N' Roses » How will the delays effect C.D.'s sales? » 988 weeks ago
Remember when everyone was fed up by 2003, 04 and 05. Then Axl reappeared in 06 and the interest exploded on the forums, at the shows and in the media.
Same thing will happen when CD is released. The interest is gonna be peaked and for a bit, CD will be the buzz everywhere. It's bound to happen. People say they are tired but when something big happens, they all come back.
As far as sales, so hard to judge sales nowadays. It's like Duff said in that recent interview, bands don't make their money off records sales, it's all tour and merchandise now.

If you read Slash's biography, he says Axl never really liked Steven because Steven was always so direct with him and told him how it is.
I doubt he would have been involved with GN'R anyway, even if he was clean!
No offense, but Steven's proven anyone would've had plenty of reasons to dislike him. I doubt him being "direct" with Axl was Axl's reason for not liking him.
If Axl didn't like Steven before, he really hated him after he had Erin over his house and shot her up with heroin. That is what put the nail in the coffin of that relationship, if it was already damaged.
The story goes that Axl has sex with Steven's girlfriend and then Steven did this to get Axl back, now 2 wrongs don't make a right but I guess the drugs is what was the most damaging.
