I love the book, love it! But so much bad language and hedonism, the drugs the sex. This is what drives the book and the character. If it is paired down at all it will just lose it's essence. Any ideas?
It's not the years, honey. It's the mileage.
By making it an R rated film.
Who's scruffy lookin'?
Did you see Filth? Didn't lose its essence, still filthy, sex, drugs, bad language.
Really want to see Nicholas as this character, specially in some particular scenes. Hope they didn't change a lot.
This is a fun book but utterly derivative.
It's like Niven read American Psycho, Trainspotting and couple of Ben Elton's and wrote a book by numbers.
So no doubt the film will be utterly derivative; a mash up of hedonism montages, a few moments of laugh out loud cartoon style comedy, the obligatory bleak part, an inner monologue from Stelfox and pumping (britpop) soundtrack.
It will be nothing like we've seen before, if we've not watched a film for 30 years.
haha. Unfortunately, so true.

"You're wrong. It's four times the risk, and I'm double the worst trouble you ever had."
yeah, the film turned out as a terrible mishmash of muddled parts that tried to be badly lifted from those elements you named.
shareI think if they can successfully adapt Trainspotting, American Psycho, Fight Club and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas for example I doubt there'll be much of a problem with Kill Your Friends.
How can a movie be adapted into a film? Same thing mate.
