Quentin Tarantino to Newcastle for 15mil pounds? In the crazy pre-season transfer ... Oh, I'm just kidding. It looks like the producers of "Pulp Fiction" are going to make a movie called "Goal!" (genius!) in Newcastle (glamor!). It's a "kind of Rocky meets 8 Mile" (pure gold, baby!) that tells of a Latin American's struggle to fit into his new English club (genuine original!). Quentin may or may not direct. Looks like they're cashing in on the success of recent movies like Bend it like Beckham and Shaolin Soccer. This is even more hilarious than it sounds because it's true. Check out the casting ideas and put up some of your own.

Woo. Julio Geordio comes to life.

Awesome! I hope it happens!

Cast suggestions from the article: Bobby Robson - Clint Eastwood Alan Shearer - Sean Bean Laurent Robert - Eric Cantona Lee Bowyer - Vinnie Jones Hahahahahahahaha.

Given the criminal records of half the Newcastle squad they'd be better off calling it Scum. (SFW despite URL)
