FrankRedHot: Best Sports Films?

FrankRedHot 02.26.12	Warrior is so good
ncguitar 02.26.12	OVER THE TOP
BallsToTheWall 02.26.12	Still need to see it, that and Slapshot. Where's teh Mighty Ducks? But yeah, Sandlot, Remember the Titans, White men Cant Jump, and Rudy are essential to me. Martoranos hasd a raging hard-on for Raging Bull. If it's not Ragign Bull blasting out of the speakers it's Godfather.
AngelofDeath 02.26.12	Mystery Alaska
ReturnOfTheDnor 02.26.12	cool runnings
ncguitar 02.26.12	Cinderella Man, Invictus.
FrankRedHot 02.26.12	FEEL THE RHYTHM! FEEL THE RHYME!
jdennis31 02.26.12	no friday night lights? best movie soundtrack ever
geng 02.26.12	Fuckin Space Jam yo.
EyesWideShut 02.26.12	Raging Bull but would The Wrestler be considered a "sport film"?
FrankRedHot 02.26.12	Almost put Cinderella and Friday Night Lights
Hyperion1001 02.26.12	umm where the fuck is balls of fury
FrankRedHot 02.26.12	The Fighter is no more/no less of a sports film than any of the others on this list.
Relinquished 02.26.12	so many great ones here I liked the South Korean film "Champion". I'd add that there.
Shuyin 02.26.12	Rocky and Rocky Balboa are my favs Shaolin Soccer is lol but in a good way
ohfoxxxycole 02.26.12	black swan
Trebor. 02.26.12	2 and 3 for sure Still need to see Warrior and Bronson
Sanders 02.26.12	Warrior was fucking awesome. I love that I couldn't decide who to root for in the final.
wacknizzle 02.26.12	Rookie of the Year Big Green Little Big League Sandlot Little Giants Angels In The Outfield The Mighty Ducks(1, 2, n 3) The Brothers Sinclair(Probably The Great Film Ever)
TheNotrap 02.26.12	Rocky.
coneren 02.26.12	slap shot
jdennis31 02.26.12	@riffoclock wrestler was good but boring as shit. fighter/warrior was faster paced, pretty sure it worked a lot better at keeping people's attention
iglu 02.26.12	the mighty ducks with gordon bombay! the big green
Trebor. 02.26.12	wrestler was good but boring as shit. fighter/warrior was faster paced, pretty sure it worked a lot better at keeping people's attention I don't care if regular jackoffs can't watch a movie if it doesn't have an action scene every ten minutes, The Wrestler rules hard
jdennis31 02.26.12	not that they can't watch it. you can enjoy the wrestler but still like fighter/warrior more. it's not like they completely left out character development and a plotline in both movies... it just wasn't the focus
jdennis31 02.26.12	@riffoclock yah, the cliche stuff was really annoying, definitely don't think it's oscar worthy but the fight scenes were badass. mma fans seem to hate the movie because of the ridiculous knockouts tho
jdennis31 02.26.12	lol, not that the oscars really hold much weight, but i can't believe the wrestler didn't win in 2009... slumdog millionaire wtf
BallsToTheWall 02.26.12	cool runnings (2) im embarrassed I forgot that fuck me.
Trebor. 02.26.12	the Oscars have been trolling the last few years crash, slumdog millionaire, the hurt locker, the king's speech, you mad?
iglu 02.26.12	GOAL!.....lol jk
BallsToTheWall 02.26.12	American Girl with Dragon Tattoo sucked ass. Whole movie deserves a razzie., Speaking of Nolte.............Peaceful Warrior.
Trebor. 02.26.12	I bet they'll give best picture the The Help just for lolz
jdennis31 02.26.12	@trebor eh not mad. i understand it's a joke. the fact people kept trying to get bridesmaids nominated for anything at all other than a razzie is a joke. but i actually liked hurt locker, don't remember what other movies shoulda beaten it out
iglu 02.26.12	so wait, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo sucked?
BallsToTheWall 02.26.12	Lol The Help. Id rather die than watch that movie.
Trebor. 02.26.12	I can't stand those white guilt movies
BallsToTheWall 02.26.12	Iglu...it doesn't even come close to the Original.
whywontyoudie 02.26.12	Ping Pong Playa
jdennis31 02.26.12	well if imdb ratings mean anything to anyone, it's supposed to be pretty freakin bad ass. dl it... dvd screener has been out for like a month and a half
jdennis31 02.26.12	but i still haven't gotten around to watchin it yet cause i'm pretty sure i'll be disappointed after watching the first version
iglu 02.26.12	@Balls, haven´t seen either but i wanted to see that, I guess i should see the original isntead?
Trebor. 02.26.12	Inception is like the 4th highest rated movie ever on IMDB and the Transformers movies have positive ratings, so you can't really trust IMDB all the time
BallsToTheWall 02.26.12	Rooney's no Noomie.
jdennis31 02.26.12	@riff that's surprising. i'm thinkin you're the first person i've ever spoken to on the internet or in real life that didn't like fight club. thought social network was pretty good too
Trebor. 02.26.12	Rosie O'donnel didn't like Fight Club She even spoiled the twist on her show before the movie came out What a cunt
iglu 02.26.12	I was actually watching the social network the other day and realized its the same girl
jdennis31 02.26.12	@trebor17 eh i have mixed feelings about inception. watched it 3 times when it first came out, freakin loved it, but wouldn't be able to force myself to watch it again. but i mean, a large portion of my favorite movies are in the imdb top 250 so i give it a little weight
iglu 02.26.12	Well i never had high expectations for the social network
jdennis31 02.26.12	@trebor i already hated rosie o'donnell, and that has moved her up my list haha. i woulda been so pissed if she had ruined the movie for me back then
Trebor. 02.26.12	Inception is a great movie, but it's definitely not top 20 all time material, nor is it nearly as complicated or sophisticated as most regular jackoffs make it out to be
KjSwantko 02.26.12	How can you talk about sports films and not mention Miracle? C'mon. Mystery, Alaska is another pretty cool hockey film too as Angel mentioned.
jdennis31 02.26.12	Well i never had high expectations for the social network [2] yah, i thought it was just another super hyped up movie... which it was... but it exceeded my expectations
Trebor. 02.26.12	The Social Network is my favorite Fincher film
jdennis31 02.26.12	@trebor17 yah... i didn't understand all the jokes about people thinkin they were clever for enjoying inception... i just really liked leonardo decaprio, till i found out he was a huge peta supporter, and joseph gordon levitt is probably my favorite actor right now. plus that jgl fight scene in the hotel was badass.
wacknizzle 02.26.12	The Social Network is one of those movies that's only good the first time u watch it, it's really nothing special.
Trebor. 02.26.12	I've seen it like 10 times and still love it
wacknizzle 02.26.12	Thats cool, thats just how it was for me. Does anyone still watch Requiem For A Dream? I saw it a few times and then never wanted to see that horrible nightmare again.
Trebor. 02.26.12	I still haven't seen it I only ever come across the shitty censorsed version which isn't worth watching I've heard
Recspecs 02.26.12	List needs more soccer.
wacknizzle 02.26.12	Yeah, its a movie u should def see but not one u will want to see more than a few times. I've been trying to watch Party Monster, everyone told me it was really fagish but I saw the last quarter of it and didn't see anything that bad and the plot was cool so i've been trying to watch the whole thing.
JWT155 02.26.12	LITTLE GIANTS
wacknizzle 02.26.12	I'd rather watch 3 Ninjas, Mighty D, Heavyweights, The Sandlot, Rookie of the Year, or Cool Runnings over any serious sports movie.
artificialbox 02.26.12	The Blind Side was fucking hooorrrible. Too many unrealistic situations for the sake of making it a "touching family movie"
Trebor. 02.26.12	The Blind Side is racist as fuck
PistolPete 02.26.12	For some reason I got uber depressed while watching Rudy, scene where his friend dies on the job is kinda gutwrenching. Good movie though.
Bloodhail 02.26.12	Invincible
WeepingBanana 02.26.12	list needs Youngblood and Slap Shot
Recspecs 02.26.12	Goal! Bend It Like Beckham Escape To Victory The Game of Their Lives That should be enough soccer for you all.
Recspecs 02.26.12	Also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvUU_nd2Hlo
thatoneguy726 02.26.12	I don't watch sports movies. I already saw them all. Underground team/athlete tries to succeed despite a handicap or untraditional method. Most people tell them they can't do it. They rise above it anyway. Climax: championship game of some sort. Family film: they win. Popular with critics: they don't win, but come away as better people.
WeepingBanana 02.26.12	right cause caddyshack, white men can't jump, the sandlot and kingpin totally follow that format... and if you're trying to say that Hoosiers is a bad movie then you're officially bad at movies
Trebor. 02.26.12	Kingpin rules
WeepingBanana 02.26.12	woody harrelson rules
Trebor. 02.26.12	Hoop Dreams is the best sports film It's a documentary but it still counts
thatoneguy726 02.26.12	Honestly, I just hate sports movies and felt a douchey comment welling up inside me.
Calculate 02.26.12	Love and Basketball

ridethebus 02.26.12	karate - is it more a sport of martial art?
ridethebus 02.26.12	MVP most valuable primate
FrankRedHot 02.27.12	Just because a movie isn't on here doesn't mean it sucks. I loved The Wrestler, it just didn't make it. Warrior was full of cliches, but the performances and the fight scenes rose above those cliches. The movie was full of emotion, and it actually felt real.
ChuckyTruant 02.27.12	I though Moneyball was pretty good
ChuckyTruant 02.27.12	oh you got moneyball ok good job pit
robertsona 02.27.12	i think a lot of ppl bash it for being White People Who Love To Associate Themselves With Black People material but hoop dreams is amazing
Crymsonblaze 02.27.12	2, 4 and 12 so much Space Jam must be included too of course
ohfoxxxycole 02.27.12	black swan
72haha72 06.13.12	Hoop Dreams and Tokyo Olympiad are both awesome.
MO 06.13.12	holy shit how has any given sunday not come up once movie is sick
taylormemer 06.13.12	"black swan" lololol Also, Rad
Masochist 06.13.12	100 comments, and no one's said 'Million Dollar Baby'. /thread
Recspecs 06.13.12	That's not a sports movie that's just a movie with a dyke-ish Hillary Swank 1/5 awful.
Masochist 06.13.12	"That's not a sports movie that's just a movie with a dyke-ish Hillary Swank 1/5 awful." Tsk, tsk...how could you not like it? One of her best. Also, Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman. Also also, Jay Baruchel and Anthony Mackie. And hey...can Snatch count as a sports movie? :-P
J0ckstrapsFTW 06.13.12	Great list Does Talledega Nights count? It should same with Semi-Pro
Recspecs 06.13.12	"Tsk, tsk...how could you not like it? One of her best." Lol I was being sarcastic, it's a great film.
Masochist 06.13.12	Hahaha, flew right over my head :-P
72haha72 06.17.12	Frank, I seriously recommend you to watch both Hoop Dreams and Tokyo Olympiad. I give you my word as a serious film-buff, you're going to be impressed 8-)
DotEight 06.17.12	Remember The Titans is one of the best sports films ever. Oh and Radio.
jdennis31 06.17.12	the goon with sean william scott was pretty good. nothing spectacular but alot more enjoyable than i thought it would be.
DotEight 06.17.12	Goon was funny as shit. "Two rules - stay away from my fuckin' percocets, and do you have any fuckin' percocets?"
jdennis31 06.17.12	lol. "pick 69, it's hilarious" shit makes me laugh everytime just cause he reminds me of someone
Sirob 06.17.12	Fuck you but good list
rockandmetaljunkie 06.17.12	I like "Escape to Victory".
