Trainspotting 2, based on the book "Porno"...

Not Boyle again please his films were no way near as good as the books.

The book was better but the film was pretty good too, tbf.

I reread Porno a couple of months ago, as it happens, so will be well up for seeing the film.

Not a Boyle fan either but he did nowt wrong on the original imo. Was disappointed by Porno anyway, so not expecting too much.

not read porno,is it a follow on to trainspotting?if so would be up for reading it

It is no69. It's not a patch on Trainspotting though. There's a prequel too (Skagboys) but I've not read that.

While we're on it, I saw Filth recently. That wasn't nearly as good as the book either but the guy playing Robbo, whose name escapes me at the mo, was excellent.

Yep a sequel to trainspotting, I've not read it.  Skag Boys is the prequel to trainspotting and is ball achingly good.  Almost as good as trainspotting itself.

Thought filth was a decent film, but yeah the book was awesome too.  Glue another brilliant book by Welsh.  Wasn't so impressed with his more recent effort "Crime".

Didn't think Porno was much cop - plot spoiler alert -







































but how Renton kept missing Begbie every time he went out was pushing credulity to its limits.

All 3 are cracking books, sure Boyle will do a good job with the film - Sick Boy is probably a bigger character in Porno, and hopefully gets more screen time than in Trainspotting - the best character of the lot for me

Skagboys was the better book better even than trainspotting. I used to think the film was good until I read the book, Boyle total gets it wrong with how much of a lunatic begbie is and how much is hated but used by the gang. And what can I say about ceeemon(sick boy) a complete and utter coont uses everybody but you can’t help liking him, he is second fiddle to Renton in the film but shines in the book.

Book - pile of sh1te.

Film - awful attempt at screen adaptation of pile of sh1te.

Never read th book.

Film was garbage.

Trainspotting?

I hope I don't get the two titles confused when I walk into a shop and ask for the DVD!

There's no damned way I want to buy Trainspotting 2
