The Longest Yard was called the Mean Machine in the UK. The Vinnie Jones film was also called the Mean Machine and was a rehash of the Longest Yard (or Mean Machine). How odd. I could understand metric countries not getting it but no idea why they'd change that title for the UK. Maybe it was reverted to the original title by the time i'd have seen it on TV?
Optimistic as ever |

It was called The Mean Machine when it was shown on telly here but I watched it quite a few years ago. Do they call it The Longest Yard when they show it now?

Probably find out what they title it as they wheel out his back catalogue in the near future. There's good royalties in death normally. They've definitely used the original title over here too.

Yes, that's the Vinnie Jones version. It was always called Mean Machine. And a load of old bollocks it was too.

Subsequent releases/showings have obviously changed the title in the UK back to the American original but that's how it was originally released in the UK. This really isn't worth arguing about.

My dad had a 'Burt' moustache in the late 1970's. It was all the rage then. Along with the Mark 2 Cortina (2litre)you could pretend to be in Canonball.(although Canonball wasn't released until later) Edited by Forest Hillbilly (07 Sep 2018 5.03pm)

It's not. I wasn't aware that we were. It's just odd, to have both changed the title and reverted it.
