    Alas, judging by some of the comments most of them are beyond help, even from the help of some carefully chosen swear words and colourful adjectives.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Funkstard


    ..And the sly but in every second frame Canterbury product placement!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,924 ✭✭✭shoutman


    Wow that is cringeworthy!

    No doubt my girlfriend will think it is a big treat when she surprises me with two tickets to the premiere or something....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 864 ✭✭✭Jilm


    Frankly, I thought it would be worse, but it still looks pretty woeful. Also, it does have the new Tom Cruise in it ...where's the vomiting icon when you need it?

    I had to stop half way through. They just don't get it. Spitting in people's face, clothes lining people? That's the sort of stuff that most fans despise someone for. This looks like the "hero" is at that sh1te. Save it yank ball, scrote.

    The Haka??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,330 ✭✭✭✭Amz


    The Haka??
    Adidas might have a problem with that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,289 ✭✭✭gucci


    Looks like a really bad version of "remember the titans" or one of those college american football movies.
    Im watchin it without sound, so I can only imagine how brain dead the comments the people are making are.

    Its the standard bad boy turns good story, billions of them made every day for the teen market. No point getting worried about it man.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,738 ✭✭✭Naos


    Can someone give the title of the video please, so I can youtube it myself?

    That link won't work in work...

    The standard movie would be based on an activity or sport that A. the U.S. understands, and B. the people who wrote, directed and acted the movie understands. Why hijack a sport they know nothing about? Why couldn't they have picked lacross or something. Pointless.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭dc69


    I think the fact that the team in the movie and in real life do a haka,says it all.

    I think they are canadian not american aswell,Oh well I still gave the yanks stick lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,023 ✭✭✭il gatto


    We only differentiate between yanks and Canadians to their faces. behind their backs, we all know they're all the same:rolleyes::)

    Gets better im quoting a member from the Leicester forums [funny enough he's an irish lad aswell]

    "Rugby appears to be "in" in Hollywood. Clint Eastwood is producing "Human Factor", supposedly about the contribution rugby made to South African unity. Matt Damon (Francois Pienaar) and Morgan Freeman (Nelson Mandela) star apparently."

    So basically its going to be a full feature comedy movie with Matt Damon at the helm ^^


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    i can't ****ing wait for this movie!:D

    didn't know about this film, sounds fairly interesting alright.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,330 ✭✭✭✭Amz


    I'm nearly in tears thinking about it ...

    WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,530 ✭✭✭dub_skav


    TBF at least Clint Eastwood has directed and written some decent movies about things he may not have a huge personal of - Million Dollar baby, Letters from Iwo Jima - so that movie may not be complete tripe. But "Forever Strong" just looks horrible.
