The movie should chronicle the King's rise and fall in fantasy football. In 2005 he scored every week, but in 2006 he was used primarily on defense.

Robert DeNiro & Christopher Walken both said they would love to be in the movie if the price was right.

at Mac and Me. The reviews on Netflix are inspiring. If the King movie doesn't have crippled kids rolling off cliffs, I think I'll pass.

I think they did. It was called The Passion of the Christ. If you look hard enough, you can see an image of the Noid in Jesus's gore.

cheers,

Yes, but I don't think a film will be succesful. Either way you look at it, Burger King only made about an extra $10-15 million with the selling of the three video games. Unless the film is made on the cheap (which probably won't happen due to the fact there will probably be numerous BK executives breathing down everyone's neck), it's going to have to take a lot to get the mainstream to go sit down and pay $8 to see a Burger King flick.

Unless it's released direct-to-DVD and you can pick it up for $5 at BK.
