    Stephen Speilberg to direct the film I'd say. A role for Tom Hanks somewhere in it.

    Urgh, I hope not.

    Not much to add to what’s been said only: PHEW!

    Neymar to play the part of the lead diver. :)

    Timothy Spall and Johnny Vegas to play the two British divers :D

    Seriously though, brilliant news and a positive outcome for humanity.

    He’s not very versatile. And plays Tom Hanks in everything. When he strays from that, he tends to be miscast. I don’t get the love.

    Seeing as one of them is an IT consultant has to be Chris O'Dowd from the IT crowd.

    Ffs, the film will be eight hours long with the amount of rolling around before he gets near the cave.

    Its fantastic news they are safe but considering they need a good while to recover they won't make it to Russia. Some other big game next year perhaps...be some cheer for them.

    They had torches. They also had good BMI scores. It struck me as soon as I seen the video of them. I said them lads will survive they all have robust immune systems.


    I remembered you saying this yesterday, because, well, you're always saying it, It's your joke...but I thought you might be glad to know that you were correct :D


    "The kids are footballers so they have high immune systems," Mr Jedsada Chokdumrongsuk, permanent secretary at the Public Health Ministry said. "Everyone is in high spirits and are happy to get out. But we will have a psychiatrist to evaluate them."

    Ms


    Delighted they are all out safe and well.

    Can't wait for the film. I think Christopher Nolan should direct it.

    I have the script wrote already so if he wants contact me. My number is 08 not.

    We need good actors for the film. No T hanks thank you. He has ruined enough films already.

    I think Chris Pine and Colm Meaney should be in it maybe Robert Downey too. Could have Zoe Saldana in it as a reporter and the irish actress that was in Star Wars.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    We're having Tom Fcukkng Hanks and that is that.

    Although I'm all on board for Colm Meaney to play Elon Musk.

    Maybe they could cast one or two Thai people in it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,094 ✭✭✭RikkFlair


    Not gonna happen now but I have a picture in my head of them being cheered onto the field before the World Cup final (instead of all that closing ceremony ****e) and being presented with the trophy.

    Oh man I be like...

    Man U have invited them over as well, given that they miss the world cup

    On Sky News, they're suggesting that there will be loads of invitations from large teams such as Man United, for the boys to travel there, at a later date.

    While it will take a while for them to return to normal... the school and parents should not allow them travel and pile more misery on them by visiting Man U :pac:

    Great news; now maybe they can do something about the thousands of children they keep locked up in cages in concentration camps 23½ hours a day.

    Some people giving Musk a hammering, I think he did well to assemble something and get it over there.

    In different circumstances it might have saved lives.

    Great to hear the doc and seals are out by the way.

    Thailand cannot afford refugees or illegals.

    You realise you just casually dismissed keeping children in cages for years with the standard line trotted out by the military junta? Think about it man...
