Saints - The Movie


Secret Site Agent

Recommended Posts

I was watching the MOTD highlights on Iplayer at work with some American collegues and I explained the comment between Shearer and Gazza about Rickie and Jay Rod, especially about our journey and the fact that Rickie joined us in League 1 and he has played for England. They reckon that we could have a 'movie of the week' based on what we have and Rickies success, and they mentioned people like Vince Papale and Pride of the Yankees and the Natural. I know that in the UK it may not interest too many, and the fact that Rickie is still playing, but would we make a good film? The Yanks like this sort of thing, success from adversity etc, and the number of 'Soccer' films around are pretty slim.

 

I know it's a peice of fun, but what do you lot reckon? Who could we pick to play the main roles? I'm sure Christian Bale would be happy if he got to use a scouse accent as Rickie. ANd Robert DeNiro as The Don.

 

Over to you

Beetroot to Brazil

 

Unfortunately can't see england getting to the wc final for rickie to score the winner

 

If by some 'Greece winning the Euros x10' slice of luck, that happened, we really would see 'Rickie Lambert - The Movie' :lol:

Nice idea SSA but unfortunately the story has already been written Copyrights are in place and there is a row between Universal Pictures & Hagiology.

 

The ITK snippets I can release are

 

Brad Pitt is playing me. Olivia Wilde will wear a Blonde wig and is coming round tomorrow for coaching sessions from me in her role as Mrs D_P

 

Vince Vaughn (sp?) is playing LLS.

John Goodman is playing Barry the Briefcase

St David is being played by Voldemort, St Lee by Hugh Grant.

Tokyo is being played by Jackie Chan

Rupert is being played by Gary Oldman (After all, he is THE most experienced Villain in Hollywood)

Renee Zellweger has promised to finish reprising Bridget Jones' Diary to play Katarina

And news just in Peter Dinklage HAS agreed to wear a wig and play NC

 

The Producers have rejected approaches from Sylvester Stallone, for SRL to appear in the next installment of the Expendables and Chris Hemsworth has not yet accepted the role of SRL as he feels he may not have the same sex appeal with the female audience as the Hero.

 

There is no truth in the rumour that Tom Hiddlestone will reprieve his role as Loki in the movie in a character composite of Jermain Wright, Rory Delap and of course Guly.

 

Oh, and of course, the movie marks the Hollywood debut of 'Arry Redknapp who will be playing OldNick in the Forum Match 1 sequence

Perhaps if it wasn't littered with historical inaccuracies you might have a chance...

 

I swear you've made most (if not all) of that up!

Vince Papale was a Eagles fan who played for his Eagles, being a Eagles fan i love this film, you can make something similar with SRL, playing lower leagues and working part time to playing full time and playing for England something that could be done specially if he goes on and scores in the World cup.

Sorry mucker; I didn't see your post.

 

But she'd be a good shout regardless.

 

 

She'd be a lot more than just a good shout I am sure, but hey, back on topic Matt Damon as the Holy Goaly.

 

Oh and FFS the name Danny Dyer is banned from this forum or a certain (not me) Dubai Saints member might FINALLY wake out of his coma and remember he had a night out with him over here....
