This film can't come soon enough for me, can't wait.

[Mr White]

A good mate of mine is working on it, building/ prepping the sets. He says it's going to be excellent from what he's seen so far.

[Sylar]

They were filming at my work a couple of weeks back - walked past Danny Boyle and thought "nah, must just be someone who looks like him"!

[Finn2015]

Really looking forward to it. That they have managed to keep the same cast is excellent to

I'm a bit bored by it to be honest.

Original glamorised the subject so I shudder to think what we'll get in the sequel, given that they are all A-listers now. Not bothered for seeing it at all.

Aye it didnae half...I couldn't wait to go out and root through a *****y toilet, find out my mate had died due to HIV and go to a mates house and find his dead baby. :rolleyes:

Couldnae wait to get out and get smacked up after watching how much fun it looked in the film.

I was out on the peeve with him again on Friday in Camden Town and got the lo-down on what's happening with the film. January 2017 for the launch and I'll be strutting up the red carpet at the première :thumbsup:

Keep in touch DH1875 if you're ever down these parts - Pub League football is not a prerequisite!

Agree. I think the film and books actually portray the harsh realities of heroin addiction but each to their own

All played out to a chart-busting soundtrack, by the healthiest looking junkies around. I didn't say it encouraged heroin use.

I found the book a harrowing read. The film had nothing like that impact on me.

I wouldn't describe any of the main characters in Trainspotting as looking healthy, let alone the "junkie" ones.

[LustForLeith]

Getting in the mood for it with a trip to the showing of Trainspotting on it's 20th anniversary as part of this years film festival. Takes me back to being at the premier all those years ago!

Has anyone ever been to the theatre to see trainspotting and if so, is it any good? I didnt even realise there was a theatre version but apparently its coming to Glasgow for 2 weeks in September.

I saw a theatre version before I read the book.... long before the film.

However, I am guessing that the one you're talking about is the one that was on at the Fringe last year. That was superb. Very funny....but it had its dark moments and, unlike the film, managed to explain the title.

Not sure if its the one at the fringe or not. Only found it today that a theatre version existed and wanted to check its worth buying the tickets :aok:

The one at the Fringe was superb, it's back this year.

There was also a theatre version not long after the book was released that featured Ewan Bremner as Renton.

Yep. I saw that. It was my introduction to the whole thing, and made me read the book.

[heretoday]

We saw what was going on. What a palaver for one shot!

Must be expensive. Hope it's worth it.
