I like Rudy and Hoosiers, but I live in Indiana so I'm probably biased

Bull Durham
Hardball
The Rookie
Bad News Bears

even League of their Own

I'll give you those two. Rudy isn't really about the game of football though.

Football:
Remember the titans
Friday night lights
The replacements

Basketball:
Hoosiers
Glory road
Coach carter

Most baseball movies aren't really about baseball. They use baseball as a metaphor or symbol of the American dream. This can also be done with high school football.

You forgot Any Given Sunday

Why can't soccer into kino?

>League of Their Own

came to post this, it's Hanks-kino

youtube.com/watch?v=6M8szlSa-8o

>no eight men out

She's the man? Only soccer movie I've seen besides the one German one where the dad eats his sons rabbit

hoosiers you stupid bitch

My fuckin nigga. That movie is underrated as fuck.

I guess for basketball you could add

Space jam
White men can't jump
Maybe that one spike Lee movie

Yeah, it more or less was just an underdog story while jerking off the lore of Notre Dame under the table.

Though living 3 minutes away from the campus, I can confirm the campus is actually beautiful and has a decent culture. I wish I wasn't an underachiever or I could have gone there tbqh famalam

you ready to cry, Sup Forums?

McConaughey really started to step it up after this movie came out.

Baseball makes Oscar Nod tier movies.
Football makes decent tier movies.
Basketball makes the occasional good movie, but mostly shit.
Hockey has 2 or 3 excellent movies.
Soccer has nothing, absolute shit. I'd rather watch a movie about Jai-Lai. and i love Soccer.

Goon is my fuggin shit

The Damned United is solid.

Shaolin Soccer

Boxing is the most kino sport objectively.

>one of the best movies made

>about rugby

This sporting life trumps a lot of the ones you listed, while the sport is important to the development of the character, cliche stories don't get you far.

...

Because baseball is magical

Boxing movies are best if that counts as a sport.
also for football: Invincible

Victory is literally the only decent soccer movie

Sandlot

And the longest yard.

>Goon
this

fucking hell people

North Dallas Forty is basically the same movie but better

Shao lin soccer

Also miracle on ice

>Kurt Russell
i dunno man, sell it to me.

>Boxing movies are best
This. Rocky, Raging bull, Cinderella man and the fighter are better then basically every other sports movies

Friday night lights is the most kino sports movie ever made

>Boxing movies are best
sure
>if that counts as a sport.
fuck me. of course it does you fucking...whatever.

don't forget Million Dollar Baby
say what you want it was a well done movie.

Play it to the bone is a forgotten gem. Great roadtrip movie and a great boxing movie.

the show is better

>i get no respect i tell ya, no respect

Hell, even Southpaw, an extremely average film, is objectively better than a lot of sports movies out there

Sorry lads ice hockey wins it
Mighty Ducks
MVP: Most Valuable Primate
Slapshot
Les Boys
Miracle
Goon
Mystery, Alaska (Russel Kino)

They just wanna win, get em ladybugs!

Thank you I love this movie so good. Sad the kid killed himself in real life

The show is mediocre desu

Warrior also. Its MMA but whatever, that movie is great

Can you include Eastbound and down with baseball as well?

i loved it up until the bullshit hollywood ending.
they basically walk off into the sunset together, after the best scenes with their father and all the shit they needed to talk about, it was a weak cop out in my opinion

youtube.com/watch?v=LkimMjwfjrQ
just in case you think i didn't like it or relate to it, for me this is the best scene of the movie.
The film deserved better than that fucking weak ending.

No-one else liked Bend it Like Beckham?

yeah it was great

that scene is super depressing. How would you have ended the movie?

Because it isn't an american thing. And unlike american sports the majority that exist are based on real events.

I would have had them talk to each other. The one thing they needed to do, Tommy let himself get almost fucking crippled to avoid what he was feeling that shit is insane. You do whatever you want to do but hurting yourself because you've been through shit and can't express it? You need help. Brendan too needed his brother.

That was the whole point they needed each other and we never saw them on the same page. That was the crux of the movie to me. To get them on a united front. Maybe that's too Hollywood as well i dunno, it's just what i wanted when i watched it.

My benis liked it.

>no mention of brian's song
Slack jawed faggots.

*Ahem*

movie is too sad desu

All of them are inferior than the average Rocky movie.
Well maybe at the same level with Rocky V.

>googles
>it turns out Mark Richt is in this obscure movie

when your most notable cast member is a mediocre football coach... yeah.

Remember the Titans and Rudy are the best football film, and if you debate this you're a cuckold. Friday Night Lights show is better than the movie too.

>obscure movie

You couldn't be more wrong, I strongly recommend you to see this movie, it's a "life changer".

nah, moneyball is better than all of the Rocky's besides 1 and 2

I remember watching this after a middle school bible study (my parents thought I would make normie friends that way) like 8 years ago. It's basically a Christian Remember the Titans. I recall nothing other than that

Robert Aldrich's first movie about a baseball camp in Florida isn't great but it's pleasant enough. It's always weird when actors in their 30s are playing characters in their teens.

It's a great movie of an amazing true story.

are you saying that you dont like kurt russell? If so, fuck you

>It's always weird when actors in their 30s are playing characters in their teens.
That's just hollywood though.
