When I was in a predominantly brown elementary school, a lot of kids seriously glorified him and wanted to become the next bindy johal by acting all gangster and shit. I doubt he is still relevant anymore, but hopefully this film doesn't glorify the gangster life and shows what actually happens...AKA nearly all his crew is 6ft under

so im not surprised they would make a movie about him, surprised it took so long
wonder if there'll be musical numbers

He was big news back in the mid-late 90's. Took a bullet to the back of the head on the dance floor at Palladium. Tried to go up against those that were bigger than him and he paid the price with his life. McNair peeps from the 90's would remember some of his crew.
Movie worthy? Fuck no. What a waste of resources and money :heckno:

Alot of you might be too young to have paid attention to the news 15 years ago. But even I know who he was, and I live in Kelowna. You could think of it like he had the notoriety of the Bacon Brothers but in the late 90s, maybe even more so.

The difference was the notoriety. News outlets loved him and his beef, they were a goldmine for the news outlets. The back and forth between him and his enemies in the news was like a movie.

Never met Bindy Johal but do agree that he inspired a lot of brown wannabe gangsters. Feels like I went to school with most of them... like him, seemingly nice to you on a day to day basis, but if one of their crew had an issue all personal feelings are eliminated, morals turned off, you're the enemy, it's go time. They said it was a "brown thing". That is why fights were rarely one on one. I can honestly say I've witnessed a bare minimum of 100 fights where a brown guy loses 1 on 1 and in the following days, the winner of said fight is taken down by the loser and his friends/cousins. Hecccctic.
I sincerely hope the number of wannabe gangster type brown kids have declined these days.. from the outside, there seems to be less of them, but I'm not in the thick of it any more. There are definitely a lot of brown guys out there that are good shit too, I'm specifically talking about the ones who act gangster.
I'm a bit older than murd0c.. the shit I've seen.. I could write a book about it.

Hopefully it is shit so I don't have to hear how awesome it is from a bunch of loser brown kids. I don't understand why kids idolize him, just because he made it on the news? Seems like he was just some attention whore and probably died because he couldn't keep his mouth shut, and he took the cock too.

I was at Tupper at the time. One of our teachers lived next door to Bindy at the time, and his tenant was the one killed by mistake because he also walked his rottie late at night like Bindy did.
I lived in the neighborhood where they killed the first Dosanjh brother, I missed being at the shooting by 30 minutes because I missed my bus.

I'm in my mid 30s so I recall Johal and stuff that was going on at the time between him and his crew and the Dosanjh brothers and Lotus. Ran into Johal once when he came by my school's smoke pit to visit some of his boys, he seemed normal enough but everyone knew who he was and to be walking on eggshells around him as he could snap at a moments notice.
I wouldn't worry about this film glamorizing his life too much or influencing todays youth much, I doubt it'll even be seen by many, its a low budget Canadian film, funded in part by Telefilm Canada with no major distributor.

let's get stereotypical. i grew up during the bindy times. i'm 34.
the indo community is what gives the indo community a bad rep.
i've seen many parents turn a blind eye to their indo sons activity then claim he was a good boy when he's dead in a burned out car.
indo houses stacked to the ceiling with stolen goods. i've seen houses like that and the parents don't do shit. 10 sets of wheels, 50 decks, 50 subs.
or a jobless 20 year old rolling around in a 100k vehicle living at home.
these "kids" where high school to early 20's age living at home.
so blame a small indie movie that very few people will see, OR LOOK IN THE FUCKING MIRROR.

when the film is introduced to the public it will leave the director's control, which creates the possibility for it to be read in a way that venerates Bindy, but being familiar with Mehta's filmography, I can say with certainty that it will be a critical take on that component of the indo community. In other words, it will be that "fucking mirror".

For those who are old enough - McNair was also home to the machete attack in 93! Respect!

I remember hearing about the machete attack in 93' when I was still in high school. In Surrey we were used to indo canadians, dirtbag white folks, and the odd kid from Taiwan or HK. But shit was going down something fierce in Richmond.
I remember when a buddy of mine was at a pool hall in South Burnaby. A group of asian bangers was starting trouble. He stepped to them, and one of the guys pulled a fucking shotgun out from under his long jacket, held it to my buddie's chest, and basically made him beg for his life. That was a lot different than what we were used to in Surrey. We had whores. You guys had 5' tall chinese teenagers with shotguns.

If one gang independently imports its own coke or heroin, but also starts making big money, you can bet the system will eventually take them down.

No one cuts into the Queens drug selling business.
Looks like crazy old CIC might have a point.
The nickname Freeway came from Ross' owning properties along the Los Angeles Harbor Freeway[5] and living next to the 110.[6] According to an October 2013 Esquire magazine article, "Between 1982 and 1989, federal prosecutors estimated, Ross bought and resold several metric tons of cocaine. In 1980 Ross' gross earnings were said to be in excess of $900 million – with a profit of nearly $300 million. Converted roughly to present-day dollars: 2.5 billion gross, and $850 million in profit, respectively.”[7] During the height of his drug dealing, Ross was said to have sold "$3 million in one day."[8] According to the Oakland Tribune, "In the course of his rise, prosecutors estimate that Ross exported several tons of cocaine to New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and elsewhere, and made more than $600 million between 1983 and 1984."[9]
In 1996, Ross was sentenced to life imprisonment after being convicted for purchasing more than 100 kilograms of cocaine from a federal agent in a sting operation. Later that year, a series of articles by journalist Gary Webb in the San Jose Mercury News revealed a connection between one of Ross's cocaine sources, Danilo Blandón, and the CIA as part of the Iran-Contra scandal.[10] Ross's case was brought to a federal court of appeals which reduced his sentence to 20 years as a result of Ross being over-sentenced. He was released from custody on September 29, 2009.[11]
