First you accidently shoot yourself in the leg and then, to add insult to injury, you could get jailed for 3 and a half years for it.

Sounds like the plot for a Mean Machine style prison-sports movie.

 

But yes, what a complete tit. As if wandering around in public with a loaded firearm wasn't stupid enough, you'd think he'd at least put the safety catch on.

I was unfortunate enough to catch the end of the Vinnie Jones version last night on TV.

I sat there in shock at how bad it was. It was really really really bad.

The Longest Yard. Although aren't there now about 350 versions of this film?

 

I had a conversation with someone recently about the 'original' and they presumed I was talking about the Vinnie Jones version. It made me very angry.

Wasn't the longest yard first filmed in the 70s some time, then remade after the superbowl a few years ago when someone was tackled litterally 1 yard from a game winning touchdown.
