so was Mark justified in stealing all the money at the end?
>>
He didn't steal it all.
>>
>>67986661
No, he fucked over his mates, except for Spud.
>>
Begbie is a cunt
>>
>>67986744
>No, he fucked over his mates

Begbie and Sickboy were cunts.
>>
>>67986661
He could justify it in his own junkie way.
>>
in the book he thought about leaving Spud some cash instead of actually leaving it

way to humanise a junkie
>>
Who else is excited for Trainspotting 2: rise of fentanyl?
>>
It was his money anyway. Didn't Begbie force him to sell a bunch of his shit to raise cash for the heroin?
>>
>>67986856

not me
Trainspotting is a pretty perfect film with a great ending.

Also the source material for the sequel is Porno, the book sequel to Trainspotting. It's an entertaining read if you're a fan of the characters but ultimately it's really sub-par. I don't even know how they would make a plot arc screenplay for a film out of it.

Would prefer if Danny Boyle would do a film based on Glue. The four characters from that book are just as good. It's a close second to Trainspotting.
>>
>>67986661
This is one of the greatest endings I've ever seen to a film

He took the money and went to Amsterdam to open a night club. Begsbie eventually goes to prison for manslaughter. Spud becomes a family man. Sick boy falls the hardest and becomes a pornographer.
>>
>>67986661
Friendly reminder Renton is the antagonist of Trainspotting and Porno.
>>
>>67987072
Yeah I've seen this film like fifty times. It's fantastic.
>>
>>67987072


gives me shivers

>>67987072
that fucking soundtrack though

it's composed entirely of thrashy late 90s disco songs

>Born Slippy
>trashy

>>67987072
When I was younger I thought of myself as Rents, but now I realize I was Spud all along.

Does anyone know what age Ma\rk Renton is supposed to be in the film?
>>
>>67987157
Me too.

I wanna read the book.
>>
>>67987091

porno's abit shite desu. not my canon
>>
>>67986773
ya but they are friends. it's kind of druggie thing to just hang out with the same users year after year because theyre the only people you know really well even if theyre assholes.
>>
>>67987648

It's good if you can handle reading in retarded Jock babble. The film only used about a third of it.
>>
>>67987648
the book is a real chore to read because the scottish accent is written in to the book. there's a bunch of good things about the book but the film is a perfect adaptation
>>
>>67987648
I read it years ago. It's great. Your brain gets used to the scottish accent, especially if you read it aloud. As a plus you learn to use the accent pretty well irl.
>>
Sickboy and Begbie were opportunistic assholes and deserved to get fucked over. He gave Spud some of the cash, and that was the right thing to do. I think he's alright.

Try reading it out loud in Rentons narration. It's fun.

>>67987295
U fuckin wot? Most of the songs were 70s rock/punk

Jesus christ

Danny Boyle should just dedicate the rest of his life to turning Irvine Welsh's books into movies.
>>
>>67988026

he means Born Slippy.. that's all...

but le epic obi wan star wars spin off

This isn't directed by Boyle but you should see Acid House.

As an English man in Houston Texas, from time to time i put on thick regional accents because I'm bored as fuck, the most fun is a thick Glaswegian Scottish. They can tell you're "Scottish" but just not understand and they feel bad, whites anyway, the mexicans and blacks just stare blankly

You drop your copy in the bath or something?

People always exaggerate the scottish phonetic, you get used to it real quick. Found some words sneaking into my vocabulary by the end of it.

This post just increased my range as an actor a little. Good shit anon

>English man attempting to sound Glaswegian

I can only imagine how bad you sound. Please never do it in earshot of an actual Scot.
>>
>>67987500
At least you didn't have your shit fucked up like Franco.
>>
>>67987500
I would do some crazy things if it would make book Spud be my best friend. Dude is the most chill, good time person going, would have the nights of my life with that guy
>>
>>67988837

Pretty bad i guess! and Wouldn't dream of it, Yanks love it tho
>>
It's not stealing if it's from junkies, silly.
>>
I wonder when Begbie and Spud will show up on Elementary.
>>
>>67988392
uh've goa' tae fuKKin moo-ve mahn
>>
>>67986891
begbie and sickboy made him buy it with his real estate money
>>
>>67987008
I woud really enjoy seeing Porno adapted but honestly, I don't think it'll find an audience outside of book fans as Renton isn't really a main character this time, Sickboy was the main focus this time around.
>>
>>67987500
Don't worry anon, at least you're a good person :)
