Thanks Emma! Sounds good, what I've read and heard this is really the kind of movie I'll like.
And there's the picture from Empire for the ones who haven't seen it. I didn't even notice that I had this issue of Empire since about two days ago, so here we go. |

I just saw this tonight. First off, the Travis cameo is hilarious. Dougie has probably the funniest bit in the whole film actually!! Oh and Goosey, if you're reading this, the Travis cameo is instantly followed like a totally awesome scene with kids dressed as ninjas!!!
Secondly, it's actually a really awesome film. Like a modern day, ver british, Stand By Me. Very worthwhile, and with a real sweet heart to it too. |

Moray, I just watched the trailer for the film. When you said it is about kids who "shoot themselves" did you mean just with a camera--or does one of the kids end up getting shot?
Nikki, it says it will be released May 2. Probably have to go to some artsy kind of theater to see it, I imagine. It looks really cute! |

I went to see this tonight. It was as good as I hoped for, though there wasn't much surprises.
Definitely the british Stand By Me (which is a very good thing, as SBM is one of my all time favourites), the other kiddo even looked a lot like River Phoenix, and the character was very similar to Chris Chambers.
ROFL @ Dougie with the Flying Dog! I also spotted Fran and Neil, but I didn't have the time to look for Andy, I'm sure he was there though. First but hopefully not the last time I saw the lads on the big screen :D
Very lovely, the storyline was lots of fun and all the colours and camerawork was beautiful. The french boy HAHAHA fab.
It didn't change my world or make me think too hard, but it was definitely worth those nine damn pounds and I'm so buying it when they release the DVD :)
These kind of films always make me almost sad that I 1) wasn't born before the 80's 2) am not a boy. Lol. |

Maybe the one in downtown Ann Arbor? I'm excited! (even if they are in it for only a few seconds) lol. We should try to see it together! :O) |

Yeah, that would be cool! I signed up to get an e-mail alert when theater information becomes available. |

Nikki, I know the film will be shown here in Lansing. I told friends of mine Travis had a cameo in it and now they all want to see it too ;)
From what I understand, NCG and Celebration here in Lansing plan on showing it in one of their smaller theatres (probably the one I saw movies like Waking Ned Devine in - small and limited run). Although I wouldn't mind the drive to A2 to see it at the Michigan Theatre or even the State.

You wanna come with? lol..we may have a mini boardie convention in the works here! Royal Oak and Birmingham also have theaters that play a lot of "art films" that aren't released everywhere, I think. We'll have to wait until the official release date and then maybe pick a place that's somwhere in the middle for all of us. We all live about an hour from one another.
This could be FUN! :D |
