[chasa]

apparently this doesn't have the approval, nor the cooperation from tom brady so there's that.

I love how Failcons fans are losing their **** over this.

I love how Failcons fans are losing their **** over this.

All they have to do is not go see it. Is that hard?

 

[NE_Zealot]

Pass. I have zero interest in hearing more about deflategate, lived through it once and it was ridiculous. Much more interested in the Malcolm Butler film.

 

[Double TE]

TB = Chris Pratt
Edelman = Mark Wahlberg
Gronk = Chris Hemsworth
BB = Anthony Hopkins
James White = Michael B. Jordan
Blount = O'Shea Jackson Jr.
Amendola = Casey Affleck
Goodell = Alec Baldwin

The Brady book and film will chronicle the New England Patriots superstar’s come-from-behind win in Super Bowl LI, but it’s not going to shy away from controversy and will include the team’s battle to overcome the Deflategate debacle in 2014, follow Brady’s fall from grace and then his triumphant return to lead the Patriots to his fifth world championship

Tom Brady Book & Movie Coming From ‘The Finest Hours’ Writing Team


So... Who is gonna play him?

Forgive me, but as ahuge fan of both the Pats and movies, I think it is a stupid idea to try and make an actual movie about Tom Brady. A book yes, definitely. Of course "The Fighter" was amazing, but this is entirely different. Too much, too soon.

 

[Kontradiction]

Unfortunately you can't "undo" the body work. For that kind of transformation you'd need to find a totally new actor. Film him before he got fit and after he got ripped. That's what they had to do for Spider-Man [Toby MacGuire] and I believe Captain America [Chris Evans].

Nope. In Captain America, they used special effects when he was skinny. They did do that in Spider-Man, though.

We don't need a movie when the real thing is good enough.

 

[brdmaverick]

A documentary would do much better than a re-enacted movie.

A documentary would do much better than a re-enacted movie.

I don't know. It would be really cool to have some of the game re-created and get different perspectives than the broadcast had (a la Miracle), especially if a bunch of the re-creation was from Brady's perspective.
