You know, that would be the most wonderfully funny thing ever! I agree, she looks exactly like her dad did at that age. How fun would that project be for both father and daughter!

A movie would only work in this time period: 1976 to 1986.

Starting at school and ending at live aid.

Writers, feel free to steal this idea.

seriously. what would be the plot outline of this movie? aside from the crisis of their faith versus about being in the band in the early days, the strife during the berlin sessions, adams passing out and missing a gig, the "pop & R and H" backlash, what would possibly make this movie interesting to the non u2 fan?
i said non-u2 fan. we know that all of us would go see this movie over and over until it's removed from the theater, but why would any one else want to see a movie about 4 non-controversial blokes?

EXACTLY.

I agree with James McAvoy for Bono. Plus if it was some bizarre script and Bono was somehow related to a secret society of assassins, he has proven he can pull that off.

I think the younger Richard Gere looked like Edge. I would have Jason Lewis play Larry, and Adam should be played by Owen Wilson. Don't have any idea why but that was the first person who came to mind for Adam.

The age ranges are all over the place but you would need young and old U2. As long as Zac Efron isn't involved the young ones should be ok.

Well it is pretty much a lock if they were to make a movie Ron Eldard would be larry:

I want some royalties

MrsSpringsteen · 07-08-2008, 08:06 AM

Good call, he does look like Larry

Jonathon Rhys Meyers should play LMJ

Oh yes. Totally forgot about that idea.

The only one I can't think of is Adam.

Axver, in his film debut.
