I believe BILLIE JOE Armstrong IS in the film!


I was just sent an advance copy of this film to write a review and it seems there is alot of miss information about this film, I do believe that I saw Billie Joe Armstong in two scenes in this film. I will leave it to others to verify but it sure looks like him. I don't want to give away the story so I won't say where but I would give a hint to say it is related to the title directly and has something to do with what the lead female "sees".I think that is him.that's all I'm saying.

The Film is very good, although I did have to watch it two times to "get it" but it really sucked me in from the beginning and I wanted to watch it again.
There a some slow moments but overall a good little film for what seems like a low budgie feature.

There is no such person known as Billy Joe Armstrong but, there is a person named BILLIE Joe Armstrong.

I agree with you Tre, I believe this Tony person is just trying to cause misinformation and I would like to know who he knows with the film. I was sent a copy of this film for review by the distributor directly, their website list "BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG" in the credits in the film, why would they do that, they ARE the Distributors, I believe what my eyes saw was him!

It is quite possible that pickup shots were done on this film after the fact and anyone Mr.Tony is talking about knowing who was "involved" with the film may not be aware of that fact as I am very sure I saw Billie.

No matter either way, the film is a good film with some unique approaches to story twist, I recommend the film highly!

ehm ehm....
this is from www.netflix.com:


Trying to find their way out of Nevada's desolate, radiation-soaked mountains, Meghan (Jackie Kreisler) and Dylan (Shane Elliott) get a sense that something isn't right. For one thing, the radio is picking up a World War II-era broadcast, and the close proximity of the infamous Area 51 is unsettling. The sudden appearance of a shadowy stranger only makes things worse. Billie Joe Armstrong (lead singer of the punk band Green Day) co-stars.(!!!!)
Starring: Jackie Kreisler, Shane Elliott ...
Director: James P. Lay

Ok.. first of all... Sorry if I spelled BILLIE Joe's name wrong everyone, my bad! Next, I think it's interesting how this rbtexassoil person is a movie review guy... but when I look on his imdb profile page, DREAMLAND is the only movie he has EVER commented on... hmmmmmmmm... who do you write reviews for and where can I see them?

I just don't like shameless publicity from inside people who are trying to keep a RUMOR alive that is completely false.. all I'm saying is it sounds fishy to me.. because I know for a FACT that BJA is NOT in this movie! That's all i'm sayin'!

Can someone show me BJ doing an interview for this movie or ANY publicity where the words are coming from his mouth?? Can someone show me on any Official page of BILLIE JOE where he even makes one comment about this movie?? Please post if you have.. because he's not in it!

And when the movie comes out (eventually) everyone will see I was right! Because I HAVE seen this movie and I GUARANTEE he is not in it! I don't know what movie rbtexassoil saw.. but it's not this movie!

Someone on the Neflix review board said he was the soldier begging for help out in the desert. "Dreamland" is on instant play so you could check it out. I don't know who Billie Joe is so I can't say one way or another, just thought this might help.

1. You are an idiot. It's Billie Joe, not Billy Joe.
2. He is in the film. Look at the cast. Duh.
