Is Vinnie Jones Gearing Up To Work With Tarantino?!

Published at:  Aug 06, 2007 7:28:26 AM CDT


Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.

That’s certainly the rumor this guy sent, although I wish he’d included a link to the blog in question. For now, get out your grains of salt...



Hey I've stumbled across some news which you might be interested in. I have just read the blog of a "celebrity" called Piers Morgan. He's an ex-journalist from England and I think is q judge on Americas got talent over in the states. Anyway in this blog he just wrote this for sunday july 29th- "I turned to find the beaming visage of my old mate vinnie jones. There are few more extraordinary life stories than that of the former hod-carrier turned football Mr Nasty who now earns $1 million a movie out here as a bona fide actor. "I've just bought a big house in the Hollywood Hills next to my mate Quentin", he said proudly. "Quentin?" I replied. "Tarantino" he clarified. "We're doing a movie together and he thinks its going to be my best yet".

Well as soon as I read that I thought that maybe Vinnie Jones now has a part in Inglorious Bastards which Tarantino has said is now in production.

Cheers, if you use this could you call me biffyfan.

Love the site!

    I know what this film is about!

    by derlanghaarige

    It's about...gangsters. It's over 2 1/2 hours long and the story consists of quotes from some obscure 60s/70s flicks and is filled with lots of boring, nonsense-dialogue, that makes the kids in the audience go: "wooooooow, that's sooo cooool! Royale with cheese!". One half of the audience won'T get all the quotes from the afore mentioned movies, so they think that Tarantino is a genius who comes up with all that by himself. And the other half, who knows the same movies as Tarantino, thinks he is a genius, because he puts all these quotes in his film. (Of course they will complain when the next Dreamworks CGI-movie do the same [with other movies] in every little second).

    by spaceghost1818

    I'd rather see a new decent Guy Ritchie movie. I've lost interest in Tarantino lately, and haven't really cared for his last couple of films. He seems to be still getting props and green-lights based on what he did in the distant past, not his recent track record. And is Ritchie ever going to make another movie, or is he happy being Mr. Madonna? Hell, maybe Blown Away scared him off for good.

    Maybe Tarantino will get back to making real movies.

    by modlight

    instead of prolonged homage jerk off sessions. Yeah, we know you like 70's movies, we all do, you know what else we like? Tarantino movies like Resevoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, and Jackie Brown. I would love to see a World War II movie, but maybe just do it without spending a year watching the Dirty Dozen, Where Eagles Dare, Great Escape et al. first. You know how to make a great movie, just do it again already.

    Message for Moriarty

    by thedohdoh

    Can you please just post a "latest developments" piece on Inglorious Bastards, complete with your opinions on whether the Weinsteins have the money to risk on this 3-movie saga? It's been 10 years of hearing about this. Who is attached? Eddie Murphy is not anymore, and Stallone and Arnold probably won't be showing up either (especially the latter). I don't think this cast will be as "glorious" as people are making it out to be. After DeathProof QT will have trouble pulling them together to make his version of Mallick's Thin Red Line. That is all. You haters shut the fuck up.

    Vinnie Jones is his own greatest fan...

    by sledge hammer

    ...and the only time where he even remotely works well on film is when he's cast as pretty much exactly what he is, and is basically just "playing" a more grandiose version of himself. And even then only when he's working for a director who knows how and when to reel him back in.

    Sounds more like a "Hey we should do a movie together"

    by george newman

    Vinny excitedly continues, "I have this great idea about a hitman, sort of like something for Pulp Fiction 2."
    Quentin politely replies, "Yeah, sure man. That'd be cool"
    Vinny says, "Great, then it's a date."
    And there you have it. Vinny Jones goes around telling people that he's going to be making a movie with Quentin Tarantino.

    I still can't believe Vinnie Jones is an actor

    by vamp-aicnchat

    I grew up watching him play. He was by far the most dirtiest bastard in the English league...but we loved him for it. Who can forget when he won the FA Cup with Wimbledon in 1988 against then the greatest club side in the world - Liverpool. That cup run of Wimbledon would be far fetched in Hollywood.

    Dream cast for a movie like this

    by theholydeuce

    Vinnie Jones is a darn good choice. I think he just needs one break to become a household name. Anyways, here's my dream cast for a movie like Inglorious Bastards - feel free to chime in with your own. I'm gonna get some flak for Zach Braff and Justin Long, but I think they'd work well as a pair of youngish actors thrown into war.

    Vinnie Jones, Clive Owen, Vincent Cassel, Thomas Jane, Zach Braff, Justin Long, and Vin Diesel.

    A glorious day

    by gimmiemybackpackback

    If this is true, then today is certainly a day of days. The only thing more awesome than this is if Vinnie Jones was doing a movie with Titus Pullo called "Bald BadAsses." And instead the posted conversation would go something like "I just bought a house next to my mate Crispin..."NOW THAT WOULD RULE.

    Vinnie was talking about Hell Ride (2008)

    by boromir187

    It's a biker revenge flick that Tarantino is producing and here's the plot: A badass biker named Pistelero (Larry Bishop), his brother The Gent (Michael Madsen) and their friend Comanche (Eric Balfour) head out to avenge the death of Pistolero's lover, Cherokee Kisum (Julia Jones), who died at the hands of a rival biker gang called "The 666ers" (led by Vinnie Jones). Dennis Hopper also stars in the film, which was written and directed by Larry Bishop. Filming finished back in May.
