[An Tarbh]

One thing that confuses me, think the same thing happened last year, how is the Best Film, which is British, not voted Best British film??? :wacko:

 

[RC]

HAHA!
Brilliant point.

 

[Ripper]

Don't really see how the Bourne Ultimatium is an English film?

It was directed by an Englishman, but that seem's to be about it. Does that mean I can claim Casino Royale as a New Zealand film?

 

[RC]

Wait...are you joking?
I can never tell with you.

Because Majority of the film was filmed in the UK, that allows us to claim it... also I think the main base for it was Pinewood Studios...

 

[Ripper]

I personally thought they would've had to have stricter criteria - Have a large chunk of British money behind it, majority British cast and so forth rather than a Universal Studio's funded tale penned by an American and starring Matt Damon.

 

[getofmeland]

I know, its stupid but ah well...

They gave you guys Lord of the Rings!!! that is classed as a New Zealand film...

 

[Ripper]

Yeah, but preety much everything behind the camera was either done by, or organised by New Zealanders.

Weta Workshop for a start handled everything from sound to design to visual effects, and most of those shiny trophies were won by the New Zealand crew. If we win a couple of more, we are going to cut a deal with Satan to win the next 3 World Cups.

 

[getofmeland]

You need to do something to win a World Cup!!!

I think alot of the production for Bourne Ultimatum was British based, so I guess thats why its allowed to be classed a british film...
