Favorite Movie Of Each Sport.

🏈 Football - I hate to do this but it’s a three way tie: Varsity Blues, Remember the Titans, The Replacements.

🏀 Basketball - Rebound, The Story of Earl ‘The Goat’ Manigault.

⚾️ Baseball - The Winning Season.

🏒 Hockey - The Mighty Ducks.

🥊 Boxing - Ali.

⛳️ Golf - Happy Gilmore.

🚘 NASCAR - Talladega Nights.

🥋 Martial Arts - The Karate Kid.

🤼*♂️ Wrestling - Ready To Rumble.

—————

I hate not choosing just one, but the football category was too hard. I almost went with ‘Days of Thunder’ over ‘Talladega Nights’ in the NASCAR category. Everything else was basically a layup for me though. I figured the baseball one would be more difficult considering there are so many great baseball films out there, but from the very first time I watched ‘The Winning Season’ I fell in love with it. My numbers two and three would be ‘A League of Their Own’ and ‘Field of Dreams’, although ‘Summer Catch’ and ‘Bull Durham’ should probably be right up there too.

Mystery Alaska...very underrated movie. Hank Azaria is in that one. If anyone hasn't seen his show Brockmire on IFC I highly recommend, not a movie but solid nonetheless.

I was recently watching "Mr 3000" (with Bernie Mac) for the first time since it came out. While it clearly isn't #1 I think its a solid movie with a great ending. The whole thing seems to be a slight on Pete Rose too, which I like. :cool:

This was just a ‘Copy & Paste’ job from FaceBook, so that’s why the options were what they were. I didn’t add anything to it, but I am enjoying seeing all of your additions of other sports.

I honestly don’t think I’ve ever watched a soccer film.

Baseball = Bad News Bears
Football = ?
Hockey = ?
Basketball = Hoosiers
Wrestling = Biscuits & Thunder. John Candy and Chris Farley star as an over-the-hill Heel and fresh-faced Face who suddenly get blackballed from the major WWE org. They form an unlikely tag-team duo in a high-school-gym level league and quickly earn a following with their unique style. The build-up toward the inevitable title-belt brawl is incredible and incredibly funny, especially the Battle Royale scene. So many cameos! And the twist ending is a crusher. Heartfelt hilarity all through it, with incredible action photography. Sadly, this isn't a real movie, but a script I started writing back in the 90s, just to see if I could. I never finished it, surely it wouldn't have been bought, and then both guys died. But it would've been awesome.
