Champion of the world is sent to prison where he meets the undefeated prison system pro) Is poker a Sport? It's on ESPN...

Matt the Bruins Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Slapshot is the best hockey movie. I would also recommend Sudden Death. Where else can you see Luc Robitaille skate AND Jean-Clause Van Damme in a battle to the death with Iceburgh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 I hesitated to put that one in, Also Three Minute Warning as you have a sniper in an American football stadium. But you could also say Black Sunday as that ends with a blimp about to launch shrapnel at the Superbowl (if I recall correctly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rounders (Matt Damon is a careful, excellent poker player and Ed Norton is a wild lunatic; John Malkovich has the best/worst Russian accent) I don’t remember who said it but I do like the rule of thumb “If you can smoke while doing it, it’s not a sport.” And yes, there goes golf, bowling and darts. That stuff is better categorized as a pastime or a game. Rounders is a very good movie however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Democracy Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 So many good films. I thought it might be useful to leaven out the testosterone heavy fare in front of us with two alternative suggestions. Gregory's Girl (https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0082477/) Bend it like Beckham (https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0286499/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0) Doc PS: if you are going to watch Gregory's Girl, then do it in the original Scottish accents, not the dubbed for the US market version...
