There's a plot there for your next film. 

[SevenShells]

@riktusgrinn I'm not sure 'Benjamin Sniddlegrass and the Inexpensive Submarine' has quite the same ring to it.

[riktusgrinn]

Mate you'd have been better off spending your 6,000 quid on a mini submarine to carry you up Mark Kermode's arse.

[SevenShells]

@riktusgrinn If you think you can get a mini-submarine for 6,000 pounds, I've got a Nigerian prince who wants to make a deal with you.

I'm going to the premier at the Dendy on the 31st. Live 15 mins walk away. Hope Mr Isaacs will be there, then I could greet him personally.

[SevenShells]

@rustygin2 I believe Mr Isaacs is currently filming on the other side of the world, so I doubt he will be making an appearance. Look forward to seeing you there, Mr/Ms/Mrs Gin2.

@partyhat3 If you watched our Behind the Scenes v-logs, you would've noted that we approached both Julian Sands and Danny Dyer for the role of 19 year old shy redheaded nerd Benjamin Sniddlegrass - obviously an ideal role for either of them. But unfortunately, they were both busy working on a new buddy cop film directed by McG. One's the co-star of Boxing Helena, the other's a mouthy geeza - together they fight crime! Orlando Bloom's agent said something about a far cough.

@FoxeyeReview I dont think they said anything that indicated that.

[MrPenguinPerson]

THE IDEA WAS INSPIRED BY A BBC CRITIC WHO THOUGHT Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief WAS SO BAD HE COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO REMEMBER IT'S NAME WHILE REVIEWING IT. SO HE CALLED IT BENJAMIN SNIDDLEGRASS AND THE CAULDRON OF PENGUINS. SOME HOLLYWOOD AMATEURS LIKED THE IDEA AND ARE MAKING IT REAL. END OF STORY!!!

[Ihavealife100]

I can't believe someone actually made this.

[FoxeyeReview]

@lamuella Honestly probably something better. It's not the equipment that seems to be letting them down, it just looks like lowest common denominator film making - built on a concept that is weak and no longer funny. Even Kermode and Mayo struggled to hide the fact it has simply been taken too far and is not really very funny.

[lamuella]

@AlbanZap I know, it's almost like it was made by amateurs.
