Blades stuff in movies.

[zablade]

"Stuff-in Movies" ?

Is that some sort of extreme porn?

 

[YouFUMS]

It's pathetic how excited I get when a Blades reference comes up on a film or TV. Sean Bean mentioning Bramall Lane in Broken last week, got me very excited.

Same here, and he was only talking about his brother playing in some Sunday league final at BDTBL
Also, we watched a film on Netflix last night called 'Okja'....we all got very giddy when Jon Denver started Filling up our senses half way through.

 

[I should coco]

I think there's a scene in The Bourne Redundancy where he takes someone out with a meat and tater pie

That wouldn't be very realistic though, would it?

What about our hero launching a standard issue Kop 'tater and tater pie' into the kisser of some KGB agent. At oint blank range a Kop temperature pie (out of the freezer but they forgot to reheat it), would be lethal!

It features very prominently in Ben Wheatley's Free Fire too, which is out on Blu Ray etc soon.

I am doing a graveyard, some old players names maybe.

How about something like "RIP A.Hogg, 1867"?

To be fair, I would've thought that was getting-the-sack sort of material. Pro-Blades references is just a bit of fun.

George Formby catches some form of measles in one of his films but its red-stripes not spots - I seem to remember he says he's "come over all Sheffield United' and seeing as we're scraping the bottom of the barrel, there is a lad in a red n white striped shirt in the famous football match scene of Kes. (Barry Hines having been a Blade)

 

[highgreenintokyo]

Guy in a Blades shirt in US comedy show Impractical Jokers here at around 2:40 in.

 

[raul]

If it's a graveyard scene , can we get a Miss Rhodes featured?

Morris Edwards?

Mr John and Mrs Cherry Street?

U.R Bobb-Booker?

Olive Grove?

Ken Worthy?

Henderson Beattie?

Just a few to be going on with...

 

[Northyorksblade]

Another Blades reference by Sean Bean on Broken, When was the last time you were drunk Bean was asked 'May 1979 drew 2-2 with Leicester and were relegated.' I admit, I had to look it up and yes. we were relegated to the third division.

Any jobs going?

I am a qualified minge trimmer and would be interested in discussing a contract to look after the aforementioned area for the leading lady in the new Hellboy.
If it advances my credentials I would be interested in topiaring a Blades crest in said ladys bearded clam.
Please don't hesitate to PM me to progress this matter.

Sean Bean reference to the Blades in National Treasure (2004):




Also watched a film on Netflix last night called Adult Life Skills and the main actress pulls out a 90's Blades home shirt from her late brother's box of possessions about 15 minutes in. Tried to find a still on the internet and also watched the trailer to see if it appears in there but afraid not!

There was a show on German TV last month, made in the UK, which was dubbed. It was a murder mystery, a bloke in a wheelchair was covering for his wife who was the murderer. He told the Police officer that he argued with a bloke because he was a Gunner and he himself was a Blade. They dubbed it as, 'Sheffield United fan', which clearly didn't fit the lip movement. Normally the syncing is very good. The voices are earily close to the original. In Midsommer Murders (Inspector Barnaby here) John Nettles sounds like John Nettles speaking German, weird.

Thanks that's the one!

Where'd you find that?

Set designers/prop selectors must just think that Blades shirts are very aesthetically pleasing on camera!!

Just stuck the film on my phone, searched around 15 and screengrabbed it when it came on. Don't know if the app is supposed to stop that but

Jodie Whittaker with another Sheffield/Blades connection, her first episode of Doctor Who had Bramall Lane in it.

Murder mystery involving Arsenal and the Blades.

They could have got the plot from the FA cup quarter final when Lacazette went down as if he'd been shot and Basham had hardly touched him.

I'd use old Wednesday players for that one.

 

[diode_blade]

There was a film made during the war or perhaps just after a thriller I think, but it was set during the war, one scene the radio was on the background and it was anouncing the results, I think it was a arsenal blades game, whenever this film was on TV my mum would always mention the moment.
Sos I can't provide any more info than that.

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

I've still not been able to spot the BDTBL shop in the street at the start of Joker. Not sure if it made the cut.

 

[Greenwich Blade]

I'm still getting over Brian Blessed as Brod in Survivors, Series 3 Episode 3 (1977), living in a train carriage. Hubert: "Have you seen that scarf he's wearing? Sheffield United! What is this, a football special?"

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Watchin Frost on Netflix. The episode where Denton FC are on a cup run and the star player gets poisoned, one of the players turns the tv on in his flat and the commentator is John Hume. He mentions Gayle and Whitehouse so I assume that was a United game.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

The most obvious Blades “product placement” in films has to be “The Full Monty” where the lead character (Robert Carlyle) was portrayed as a Blades supporter. It was said that they chose United over Wednesday because it better signified the poor working class underdog. How times have changed eh?

There have been favourable mentions of the Blades in Michael Palin’s travel programmes. In the “Full Circle” he was seen in a mini bus with a “Blades on Tour” sticker in the windscreen. He also visited a barbers somewhere in Indonesia and sat in the chair and asked him if he’d heard how the Blades had got on!

 

[S64 Blade]

In The Virtues (filmed in Sheffield by Warp), Stephen Graham’s character goes to visit his son, who has United memorabilia dotted around his bedroom.

probably done to wind up the Warp Films producer Mark Herbert who is a Wendy fan

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Tom Courtenay explains a feud in an episode of the Unforgotten, by saying " we rowed about football, he was a Gooner I'm a Blade."

 

[BettingBlade]

Been watching that World's Toughest Prisons on Netflix and theres a bloke in a Polish nick wearing a pig shirt with a Nazi symbol tattooed on the back of his neck.

Even in film and TV, the Blades are a class above.
