» Those who've been following David Fincher's career for the last 30 years, would know that he's been consistently delivering really slick, stylish genre entertainment. Some may remember him from directing Madonna's music videos back in the early 90s, like Express Yourself and Vogue, or the hit biopic drama The Social Network (2010).

» When they say rock never dies, it's probably because rock music is associated with youth and teenagers. The loud, heavy guitar riffs, intense drum sounds and emotional vocals resonate with adolescents fuelled by hormones, rebelliousness and teen angst. The same goes within the world of cinema, where we see the combination of rock music and teen movies pop up every five or 10 years to appeal to the young generation, from Rock'n'Roll High School (1979), This Is Spinal Tap (1984), Detroit Rock City (1999) and School Of Rock (2003), to name a few.
