Football factory and to a lesser degree green street were sh!t imo.
ID is basic but class probably wasn't too far off reality.Quote:

ID is class I remember about 7 or 8 years ago was suffering from a bout of insomnia and it came of BBc at about 2 in the morning it was first time I saw it and thought it was class. Have also ordered the book of Away days(about Tranmere Rovers fans) as I heard they are making a film of itQuote:

i liked green street,football factory is ok,has any body seen rise of the foot soilder?it says its about hooliganism but the first 10-15 mins is to do with football.
One called The Firm starring a young Gary Oldman and half the cast of Eastenders isnt bad. ANother one was Arriverderci Millwall about the 82 World Cup with Sean Pertwee.
I liked the football factory but ive liked Dyer ever since Human traffic. Green street was okish ruin by americanising the end where everyone learns a lesson thats what i liked about the football factory the ending was good.
Read that bit aswell,I also read two of his books:eek:Quote:

Not very easy to document this sort of culture on screen being based as it is on bravado, drug abuse and sheer insanity. The book of Away Days was quite good, read it years ago, it's all about the casting though. You have to be able to believe that someone is that crazy/stupid. They should go with first-time actors.
Green Street is shocking,Football Factory is good and I dont know its name but I seen a old (80s maybe) film of one of the movie channels about casual culture in England and really enjoyed it
That 80s one you mentioned sounds like ID.
Agree with that. I always remembered ID as a good flick, but when I saw it again recently it looked crap.Quote:

Green Street is the worst movie of all time IMO.
Football factory is the second worst.
You've obviously never watched Chopper Chicks In Zombietown, a movie that set the pro-necrophilia movement back a few decadesQuote:
