Forget straight to DVD...this has straight to channel 9 @ 2am written all over it. What a f**king wank...the guy is cared about only in QLD and NSW.
The movie would require a budget of 20k for it to make any $$$

Straight to DVD.

Hope its better than that crock of sh!te that was bestowed upon us a few years ago that was filmed in Newdown.

What a dire and embarrassment to Australian filming THAT was. *shudders*


The Final Winter was a good movie. There was nothing wrong with it.

?????? He was the heart and soul of Newcastle aswell. He won 2 x GF's. He was consistent at all levels of LEague, unlike Wally Lewis. HOw quickly people forget. He was the best player I have seen.

Where is Newcastle based? In NSW!!! What did i write? Bit slow today.
I know how good he was, but to make a movie about him is ridiculous.

Didn't you hear, Newcastle its own state now, the rest of NSW didn't want to be associated with them...

we would love to be our own state, we are sick of carrying the rest of you.

if it was up to us, Sydney would be separated from the rest of us and floated out to sea.

If its about his life and his career then yes it would be good. If its about his drug battle then f**k that. I was actually thinking we need films about sportstars in Australia. Thats half the problem with have a non-existant film industry. Legends of Australia will never get film time like they do in America.

his life, career and drug battle are all part of who he is. i would imagine the movie would cover all of it.

Sydney = dirty and full of foreigners
Newcastle = God's country
The only reason why Newcastle is foreigner free, as you suggest, is because the f**king Newcastle airport is located about 15kms south of Coffs Harbour.

And if God wanted a country that was slow, smelt like urine, filled with fat 40 year old drug-addled, single-mother, prostitues, and Raymond Terrace, then Newcastle is definitely the place.

Otherwise it's a backward sh*thole.

BTW - If this movie was based around the real Andrew Johns story it would an eye opener. And worth a view. Otherwise it's going to be hideous viewing... although it might be worth seeing to see who play's Nevelle Costigan, when he took johns out for good :D

Neville Costigan would probably be played by american professional wrestler Ezekial Jackson and will be given operatic music to emphasise how much of a 'force' he is.

Actually, this could be fun, who would be casted in the film? What role would they play?

The Andrew Johns story can only really be appreciated by those with a few clues about mental health, and reading this thread just shows how tragicly ignorant most people remain to mental health issues.
Quite frankly, many of the people who have posted in this thread need to take a long hard look at themselves. It's like the bloody dark ages in here.

The movie probably needs to be made, just to try to educate all you neanderthals a bit.
