    Been watching what is supposed to be Invictus on RTE 2 and wondering when Morgan Freeman was going to come into it. They have been advertising it as Invictus all evening .....Its not "Invictus", Its "Goodbye Bafana"

    How are RTE able to make mistakes like this FFS???


    :confused:

    Quite a powerful film all the same, quite disturbing looking at just how bad apartheid was.

    Thank you

    I was thinking the same thing. Ive not seen invictus but i was happier to watch a film that focused on Mandela and the life he had in prison and rather than invictus which from what i read is mostly regarding the Mandela and the South African Rugby team.

    It was only near the end i was thinking, where is Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman? and where is the rugby? :confused::confused:

    After it was over, i was thinking if anybody had mentioned it already on after hours, and here we are,

    We're talking too totally diffrent films here! They only share one character in common!

    It's a bit like watching The Dark Knight and wondering where Adam West is.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Why was there barbed wire in a field? Keep the lions out?

    But only after he cured the Governors Wife's brain tumor and brought the little mouse back to life.

    That's "The Graduate" right?

    EDIT - Never mind (but still not as embarassing as watching Goodbye Bufana and waiting for Morgan Freeman to show up :D)

    Hey!
    C'mon now.

    A mere 2,200people work there producing literally a couple of hours of TV content per day.

    Mistakes can happen.

    Now sit down & don't forget to pay your €160 RTE poll tax for next year!
