Greatest movie of all time. imhfo

hmm, as far as sports movies my tier 1 is probably miracle, remember the titans, white men cant jump, major league

i also really enjoy jerry maguire, caddy shack, slap shot, the replacements.

i also dont hate sandler's longest yard. the cast had great chemistry tbh

blind side was an ok first watch but probably way too boring for a rewatch. i always felt the natural and field of dreams were just boring for my taste

I would put it ahead of White Men Can't Jump, Any Given Sunday, Jerry McGuire, The Mighty Ducks, Space Jam, Blue Chips, He Got Game, Remember The Titans, The Blind Side, and The Bad News Bears.

Haven't seen Friday Night Lights or Moneyball. I knew each situation in real life and didn't want to watch Hollywood glorify the fuck out of them.

I haven't seen Raging Bull; some people say that's the best sports movie. There's some others I haven't seen that could be decent.

Some of those I could move up or down; just really quickly though.

I hated Rocky. Every boxing movie has ridiculous unrealistic fights that make Gatti-Ward I look like Mayweather vs Mayweather.

Just honoring its legacy, TBH, I'd rather watch Bull Durham for the second or third time than Rocky(s) for the umpteenth time.

Yea, I think they did a bad job of simulating the boxing with no blocking.

It's just a limp-dicked movie about a psycho, a coin, and his fire extinguisher gun ffs.

Okay

Happy Gilmore technically a sports movie; if so, probably top 15.

Well sure but the beauty of the internet is you don't have to suffer through a mediocre 90 minutes of comedy for a minute-long titty scene.

GOAT sports movie is Moneyball tbh

You probably want to rewrite that; but if I have to guess what you're trying to say, No Country For Old Men doesn't hold a candle to The Natural.

Moneyball didn't even get a ring in real life. My 02 Angels made sure of that.

i dont question them. i just disagree with them.

i dont hate NCFOM. it wasnt something i had to force myself to sit through or anything like that. i just dont think it was great or memorable.

The main plot of the movie is the school jock falling in love with a 5 after joining Glee Club.

Homo who?

yeah moneyball is a good one too. that early scene with all the scouts around the table was pretty great.

but imo the movie minimized billy beane quite a bit. he just did whatever the fat kid told him to do the entire way. besides the trade deadline scene.

there will be blood came out around the same time and is a much much better movie

---

There Will be blood had a plot and nuance. It wasn't just some fapper's fantasy killings.

NCFOM agitates people because it's a noir in western clothing. I don't see how people could get upset after the subversion precedent had been set years before by McCabe and Mrs. Miller and Unforgiven, now it's just modern day.

The Natural copped out by not subverting expectations like the novel did, but it was the right move in the Reagan era.

Lots of great films mentioned here. I keep coming back to Lone Star. After all this time, I still can't think of any way that $3 million movie could be improved.
