apparently all the original cast have confirmed and it's based on Porno.

They're all significantly older but the wonders of makeup and/or some tweaking to the script which was already set a few years later could make it work.

I notice Irvine W's doesn't link to the bounce anymore. I reckon the film will be as shit as Ecstacy ;-)
 
Filth was a tremendous film.

The cast and crew are far too talented to make a shite film out of it. The Trainspotting crowd with a mid 90's soundtrack, decent source material, juice terry's screen debut and a dose of Leith made pornography - sounds completely outstanding.
 
It's 20 years nearly since the release of the original and Porno is set 10 years ahead of trainspotting. Easy tae make that work, maybe no wae Rents mind. Especially with his healthy foreign living.

Looking forward tae Beggars getting scunnered outside the Central.
 
Could work... From memory Porno is far more of a comedy than Trainspotting though, folk expecting more of the same will be left disappointed. Sick Boy's 'Port Sunshine' pub where they film the scud flicks is blatantly just the Port o' Leith? Wonder if they'll do the scene where the old boiler walks in during shooting and the lassie slips and breaks Juice Terry's wanger? :rollfloor

Never read porno but the film of train spotting is basically a comedy isn't it - or not a straight up drama anyway - so could it really be that out of step?

You surely mean ten years after Trainspotting?

Not read it in a while but from memory Porno is much more of a comedy than trainspotting. Depends what Danny Boyle is aiming for I guess, Skagboys to me would seem a more obvious adaptation to the big screen, but with it being a prequel would also rule out any returning cast members.
 
follow up/sequels are a hard nut tae crack

i didnae really like danny boyles interpretation of trainspotting so am apprehensive on this effort but i'll gie it a go
