- earthtoandy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+29"But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?"

- Asianwaste, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17The world's ***** bathroom didn't creep you out?
- scotland87, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Great News! Wouldn't have thought it possible to create "Porno" as a mainstream film, largely because of the content and scenes described in the book.
Hopefully Boyle will do as good a job as he done with "Trainspotting" and give us all another great scottish film! - Asianwaste, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12I am stationed in Japan. Remind me to spoil the next Miyazaki film for this *****.
- earthtoandy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14I am guessing it will be based off the novel sequel, Porno.
good news. One of my favorite movies ever with an incredible cast
"In a thousand years, there will be no men and women, just wankers, and that's fine by me." - AllnightChemist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9I'm guessing neither of you read the article.
- evanfrey, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10@Misaiato Thanks for being a ***** sucker.
- erniecamacho, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8What I want to know is: will Kelly MacDonald be back, too? And will she still look great in that school uniform?
- haggie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9420sniper is addicted to trolling...
my guess is that he's never done a drug in his life, has never shagged anyone definitely not his non-existent daughter, and still lives in mom's basement collecting star wars memorabilia and watching the DVD of Trainspotting repeatedly trying to perfect his fake accent. - treecha02, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7The article really made it seem like Ewan McGregor wouldn't be a part of it. It says "As recently as last week the star was reported to have said: 'They can go ahead and do it if they want, but it will be without me on board.' " The only part that says he might be involved is that Boyle "indicated" that McGregor would be involved.
The movie wouldn't be any good without him.
It also says Boyle wants to wait til the actors are in their 40's which would still be a while. This seems premature to get excited about. - Aliarse, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Trainspotting is a film you just HAVE to see, you haven't lived till you've seen that film.
Although i really dislike the dead baby crawling on the ceiling scene, freaked me out the first time i saw it (i was about 12ish). Hope the sequel is as good as the original. - DiggFight, on 10/12/2007, -9/+14If it's not Scottish, it's CRAP!
- Aliarse, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Nope. The toilets shown in the film are pretty much like most public toilets in the uk, hence the reason i never use them.
- nuschu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4A spokeswoman for Scottish Screen said: "We would welcome the making of Porno in Scotland"
- imamessy1, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6"...One bottle of Valium, which I've already procured from my mother. Who is, in her own domestic and socially acceptable way, also a drug addict."
Overdose scene with Lou Reed's "Perfect Day," in the background is probably one of my favorite movie moments (but Transformer is also one of my favorite albums, so go figure). I almost want to hear the soundtrack as much as see the movie, but I don't know if they'd be more modern or just stick with mid-90s brit-rock, a few post-punk songs, and electronic numbers. - martin993, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4They are gonna have to go a ***** of a long way to top Trainspotting. It has, in my opinion, the greatest opening ten/twenty minutes of any film ever. Classic film. Great soundtrack, too. One of those movies that just outright OWNS any song it uses.
I'm British so I've said this many, many times: Thank ***** for Danny Boyle. Richard Curtis and Hugh Grant can make whatever ***** they want as long as this man is around level things up just a little bit.
And anybody who's not seen Shallow Grave should do so immediately. Excellent soundtrack on that one as well. - Aliarse, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Drive boy dog boy dirty numb angel boy
In the doorway boy she was a lipstick boy
She was a beautiful boy and tears boy
And all in your innerspace boy you had
Hands girl boy and steel boy you had
Chemicals boy Ive grown so close to you
Boy and you just groan boy she said
Comeover comeover she smiled at you, boy.
Haven't heard that song in years, must go download. :) - martin993, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Just because it isn't the same as YOUR drug experiences, it doesn't make it utterly false. Welsh himself was an addict for a time. You're being a bit of a dismissive, judgmental prick yourself. A lot of people can relate to Trainspotting. The world does not revolve around you. Movies are not made to cater for you alone. Get over it. If you're going to criticise people's work because it's not about you then you're going to be at it for a very long time.
Do as much smack as you like. Nobody cares. - rohcky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Poor, poor Kevin McKidd. Rome is over and Tommy died of AIDS. He's got nothing.
- dvddesign, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7I think you guys have been played.
"So I impregnated my daughter."
?!?!!?!!!
Right...
Um, I'm no moral upstanding citizen, but I live clearly above a life that needs to be addicted to a narcotic to enjoy my life. Whatever kind of high is achieved through your drug is a personal greed at best and wasn't spent raising your kids properly. If this were real, you'd be a horrible father. You raised your kids to accept illegal substances as norm and that illicit relations with your father are okay.
Pot may not have any ill effects on most people, but that doesn't mean you need to encourage it's use. People DON'T need to get high. They choose to, and some people live better than to skip out on their lives by not doing stupid ***** like poking yourself in the arm with some china white.
I've got all the time in the world when I'm dead to not feel anything. Right now, I'm alive and do just fine living it. - Aliarse, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Me too.
Edit - the addicted to trolling part, not the rest. - Aliarse, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7Now you're just trolling 420.
If you did actually impregnate your OWN ***** DAUGHTER, you're one sick puppy. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+8[SPOILER]
The scene where he dives into the most rancid toilet in the universe in order to reclaim his opiate suppository is the most convincing reason for never trying heroin. I puked a little in my mouth and realized that if it had been a cigarette I could smoke and the toilet less gross, I could have been there myself. I am an unashamed member of the drug subculture until the police show up, but I would still never get addicted to heroin. People in progressive politics who tolerate most things should probably watch this movie and realize that it could only have been produced by people who have been there themselves. - noisebleed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Yeah, kind of a shame. I've really been enjoying his work recently.
- zip000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3What I thought was interesting was that that quote comes at the end of the movie, whereas it is somewhere in the middle of the book.
The movie had a little uplift at the end - the book...not so much. - robotplague, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Honestly, the best news I've heard in a LONG time. Fantastic, one of my all time favorites (like a lot of others).
- smallestmills, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2whoops.
- SailRacer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Take this entirely out of context please...
[QUOTE]
A spokeswoman for Scottish Screen described Boyle's indication that the original cast have agreed to take part as "fantastic news".
She said: "We would welcome the making of Porno in Scotland
[/QUOTE]
I'm glad that the Scots would welcome the making of Porno. :)
Trainspotting was an awesome movie. It would be great to see this make it. I hope McGreggor signs on. It wouldn't be right to do it with someone else. - evilearsgonemad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Raise your hand if this film ever prevented you from doing heroin.
*raises hand
My favorite "coming of age" film. Spud ***** in his girlfriends bed. lol - originalzzb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2McGregor still holds quite a grudge against Boyle and has repeatedly stated in interviews in the past that he would not want to ever be involved in a Trainspotting sequel.
- acdegroff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2If its half as good as "Trainspotting" it will be be epic.
- RedStateRetard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2that soundtrack will be hard to top
- Elbart, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Ah ***** them. What is a Trainspotting sequel good for? The movie itself was nice, now they will not ruin the sequel, but the initial part too. Thank you, asswipes.
- smallestmills, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's not really a sequel. Glue used side characters who appear in all his novels. Glue takes place over 30 years or so, but starts before Trainspotting, runs parallel, and ends before Porno.
- 420sniper, on 10/12/2007, -8/+9Re: Pathy
Who are you to judge me and the way I choose to live my life? I'll tell you what. You just go to your church, vote for your Republicans and eat your red beef and drive your gas guzzlin car all the while oppressing minorities.
Leave me to live my life the way I want to. You shouldn't be on DIGG with a judgmental attitude like that. - stray, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Well, not ALL the characters will be back. Tommie (Kevin McKidd's character) died of toxoplasmosis in the film.
- Aliarse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1We can only pray and hope. :D
- TeamRocket, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1There is a GOD!!!
- thedez, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What could it be about? This has to take place 10 years later. If any other the characters are still on drugs, the movie's gonna require some CG/makeup work.
- dvddesign, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I had a poster for Trainspotting for YEARS on my wall during college.
Born Slippy is also the song that got me to listening techno, take that for what you will... - etx313, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1O M G
That news makes me a happy boy. The first is one of the greatest movies of all time no doubt! - silverchrysalis, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3thank God. i can now die happy.
- manamizer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I actually think this scene is ripped off of a Thomas Pynchon book. In Gravity's Rainbow a character dives into a toilet in much the same way. Could be two people having the same idea independently though.
- marcomc2, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3HOLY *****. this is incredible! i dont really like sequels to perfect films, but this might actually be amazing. oh god there go my expectations again...please god make this glorious. and @420sniper: thats pretty ***** up man.
- creep303, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This will be highly interesting. It's neat how he wants to follow the time line of the characters' age. Hopefully this actually becomes something.
- Aliarse, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Didn't make me stop doing heroin.
Watching the local smackhead's, who are nothing like the characters in TS stopped me. -
