I was channel surfing last night and saw that "Necessary Roughness" was on TNT. It was kind of a silly movie but it made me think about other sports movies. Ones I liked were "Major League," "The Natural," and "The Longest Yard." What are some of your favorite sports movies???
|
I loved The Natural, Remember the Titans, Cutting Edge, Field of Dreams, and Bull Durham. I'm sure there are more, but I'm having a blonde moment and can't think of any :)
|
I enjoyed Tin Cup a great deal, as well as the others that have been mentioned. (Necessary Roughness was a horrible movie, but it was filmed in North Texas, so I cut it some slack). Hoosiers is another very good one.
I liked Major League (though it seems funny now to think of the Indians as a bad team), but the sequels somehow make me like the first one less than I used to. I don't know why that is, though. Eight Men Out is another that I enjoyed. Whenever Bill Murray and John McNaughton finally get their version of Veeck as in Wreck released, I imagine it will be among my favorites, too (Well, hopefully, anyway). |
I'd have to say Caddyshack is my favorite sports movie.
|
I like (not necessarily in this order)
|
Happy Gilmore - now THAT is a movie. :)
My mom hates sports movies - says the suspense is too easy to produce with sports movies. She may be right - "Mystery, Alaska" is the only sports movie that stands on its own - away from the formulaic (sp?) sports flicks. I liked that one. I like Field of Dreams a lot less than I did the first time I saw it...partially because I now despise Kevin Costner. I really mean that: I can't stand him. |
Caddyshack's a great film.
Teenwolf is sort of a sports movie. Don't forget Rocky! :) |
I love many . . .
Hard Times Rocky 1-3 Million Dollar Baby Raging Bull The Babe A League of Their Own Major League Bull Durham Field of Dreams The Natural *61 The Slugger's Wife Hoosiers Slap Shot Heart Like A Wheel Caddyshack Happy Gilmore Breaking Away American Flyers Brian's Song The Waterboy ~ I know it is goofy, but it still cracks me up. I am probably forgetting some. I still need to check out both versions of The Longest Yard, as well. |
many of these were already said:
caddyshack happy gilmore waterboy? a lague of their own fild of dreams munich? |
Hockey - Slap Shot
Baseball - Major League Football - Remember The Titans Golf - Tin Cup Basketball - Blue Chips thems are my faves :) |
|
Green Street and The Football Factory, They are loosely about sport!
|
Favorite sport movie would have to be Mean Machine starring Vinny Jones
|
Goal wasn't too bad, I don't think Goal 2 is gonna be up to much though.
|

The Cutting Edge with Moira Kelly

Re: Sports Movies
I love nearly all sports movies, but Field of Dreams is hands down the best sports movie ever made. Tin Cup, Remember the Titans, and Caddyshack are all up there as well.

Raging flippin Bull
or Rocky |
Re: Sports Movies
As some of you may have noticed by my screen name, my favorite sports movie is by far The Natural. So many underlying elements of life represented by a baseball movie...I loved it, and still do.
Green Street Hooligans is a good movie that is, (like diamond said), loosely about sport, haha. The Replacements was great, also. |
