Golfingnut Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Wow, so many great movies that I can't pick just one. Here's my list in no order. Rudy Hoosiers Brian's Song (original) The Champ Tin Cup The Pistol and probably my all time favorite, which no one has mentioned is Pride of The Yankees with Gary Cooper. I guess if Brian's Song didn't age me, this one did. So many more and like someone else said, "there isn't a bad sport's movie". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68Hornet Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 If I was a coach I'd say Rudy because it's one of the best motivational movies I've seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CasualObserver70 Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Favorite sports movies by category: Football: Remember the Titans (beats our Brian's Song) Baseball: Eight Men Out (a great movie that very few people have seen. I love Major League, but this was great) Basketball: Hoosiers (The classic David and Goliath movie) Boxing: Raging Bull (Robert DeNiro, need I say more) Those are the major sports. Now on to some other sports category movies. Winter Olympics: Miracle (Remember the Titans, Hoosiers, & Miracle are all predictable, but we still love them) Summer Olympics: Chariots of Fire (Hey, it did win the Academy Award for best picture) Soccer: Victory (great tale with WWII prisoner of war camp as the backdrop) I've recently added a new movie to my list: Invictus. I've also added The 16th Man, the ESPN 30 for 30 story behind the story of Invictus. The reason I love this movie so much is it truly shows the power of sports. Only sport can take a country as divided as South Africa and bring them together. When the Springboks win the Rugby World Cup, it is a victory for all of South Africa. Every American can remember that feeling from 1980 and the Miracle on Ice. So put Invictus on my new list of favorite sports movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
