Ok you can find infite amounts of look how good we are on the YT channel if youre into that. But if you spend 2.5 years filming a movie and the end product is a gorilla beating his chest in the mirror for 90 minutes then whats the point.
I know, but I’m one of those in a niche market who’d like it to be sent to me on dvd, by post, for posterity!

Think this one might end up fully on the cutting room floor, the moment has passed, the interest will be at zero for neutrals at this point, and for fans it's becoming rather minimal. The whole thing has been a very odd situation, and a proper waste of time.

I thought the delay was due to getting clearance and rights access to certain footage included.

Does anybody know what exactly?

What a f*** up. On one of the rare instances i bothered reading Barber's programme notes this season around about Christmas he said they would put it out in a few local cinemas early in the year. Goodness knows what happened.

Have you considered masterly inactivity?

It does feel like the project has fallen over doesn’t it? I hope that isn’t the case, but it feels a bit like we’re being strung along with nobody quite able to bring us the bad news that it’s been canned.

I’ve now accepted that this is is never going to be released.

Total missed opportunity, should have come out last year.
It was originally due for release in August 2022 (this from the West Ham programme in May 2022):-

So not far off being two years behind the publicly-stated date.

The timing has gone now. It needed to go out when we were on a high - end of last season/ beginning of this. By the time we got knocked out of the Europa, the moment had passed.
It's true. They've completely missed the boat on it. It should have been released as we were about to play in Europe. The interest from anyone outside of Brighton's fanbase will have completely waned now.

Agree - I know I posted this before, but would love to know if it’s true that the first copy was too heavy / pro Dick Knight for some.

Maybe My Bloody Valentine are doing the soundtrack?

This. Not even interested myself now, and I’m probably in it!

Release looked promising for a while back there, what with the Duke of York's gala showing and everything. Seems to have all gone quiet again tho. What gives? ???

Releasing it after first top 10 made sense same releasing it first time qualifying for Europe maybe ending it with our Ajax away win or something. But releasing it after a 4 month long battle with Bournemouth for 12th not really blockbuster stuff is it

Maybe they are waiting for us to go full circle.

Is there really nobody on here that knows what is going on with this?
