    Why... why would they do this?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/tyne/6379633.stm

    and for those of you who are too lazy to click the link.... (Or if I've typed the link in wrong)

    Ex-England and Newcastle United footballer Paul Gascoigne is to play the lead role in a new movie.
    He will star in action-horror feature Final Run and will begin shooting the film alongside Lois Winstone, daughter of Ray Winstone, in the summer.

    Billed as a cross between Black Hawk Down and Alien, the movie is set in the near future and follows the aftermath of an alien invasion of Earth.

    Gazza plays a misguided survivor torn between his own future and humanity's.

    The movie is being made by SJB Imperial Film and the former Glasgow Rangers, Middlesbrough and Tottenham favourite is also working as one of the film's producers.

    It is hoped Final Run will be in cinemas in early 2008.

    Ah geez, Gazza ... in an action horror?! Ah mate!

    The basic premise sounds like it could be pretty cool, basically a film version of Gears of War by the sounds of things, but ach, Gazza?! What the f*ck does he know about acting and/or producing?! I'd be a better actor ... and I can't act my way out of a nutsack!

    Name brand recognition. Direct to video horror movie that football fans will rent at the video store when they see Paul Gascoigne on the cover.


    Beware the beast, man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.
