The Sandlot is nice as well, underrated I think. <br /><br />Also, basketball movies? He Got Game. Ridiculous movie...but my first Spike Lee joint and it got me hooked. Ray Allen as Jesus Shuttlesworth is...interesting. And you got John Turturro in a small role...random NBAers showing up...it's good stuff.SpastikMoosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13374559066158419166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6962394791591172576.post-49268717554919123392011-01-28T09:01:38.803-05:002011-01-28T09:01:38.803-05:00My baseball list is:

There are only a few that stand out.<br /><br />Baseball:<br /><br />1. Field of Dreams -- so simple and almost hokey, but it makes the hair stand up on my arms during several moments of the movie.<br /><br />2. Major League -- very funny. I know Charlie Sheen has issues. It's still funny.<br /><br />3. Bad News Bears -- it taught us kids all kinds of bad words. The most quoted movie on the playground.<br /><br />Football<br /><br />1. North Dallas Forty -- I was over at a friend's house when I was a teenager and saw this movie for the first time. Opened my eyes wide.<br /><br />2. Heaven Can Wait -- Very '70s but very good.<br /><br />Basketball<br /><br />1. Hoosiers -- Maybe the best sports movie that I've seen<br /><br />2. Hoop Dreams -- I remember sitting in my apartment transfixed the whole time.<br /><br />Hockey<br /><br />1. Slapshot -- It's been too long since I've watched this.<br /><br />Golf<br /><br />1. Happy Gilmour -- Yes, it's stupid, but I laughed throughout.<br /><br />I still need to see Raging Bull. I have a feeling that's the best ever.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6962394791591172576.post-75420474450150552242011-01-27T21:19:10.280-05:002011-01-27T21:19:10.280-05:00"Field of Dreams" tops my list.
