What a terrible list as so many great sports movies are omitted from it. Also, I guess they didn't make any good sports movies before the year 1976. I even bet they chose the Adam Sandler version of The Longest Yard".

 

[Tino]

Agreed.

Any list that doesn’t have Hoosiers on it is worthless.

 

[Tino]

More proof that most polls are useless.

The Waterboy?

Happy Gilmore?

Now I want to watch Slap Shot, which also isn't on the list.

 

[Tino]

Seriously. How terrible is this list.


1. Space Jam 90%

2. The Blind Side 88%

3. Rocky (franchise) 87%

4. Raging Bull 85%

5. The Mighty Ducks (franchise) 81%

6. Million Dollar Baby 80%

7. The Karate Kid 79%

8. Invictus 77%

9. Chariots of Fire 76%

10. Happy Gilmore 73%

11. Cool Runnings 72%

12. Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story 69%

13. Moneyball 67%

14. The Fighter 66%

Laughable. Some aren’t even sports films.

I'm surprise it took you this long to notice this thread and the listing. It's a horrible listing!

I took a poll and found the same thing.

I normally don’t even click on these type of useless threads. I was weak today.

A sports movie list that doesn’t have Bull Durham can’t be taken seriously.

There’s one film on that list that I’ll never watch-
The Blind Side. I saw the wrong 5 minutes of it- I got so angry watching the scene that there’s no way in Hell I’ll watch the rest of it.

Dodgeball? Really? That’s the first film I walked out on.
Awful.

I wish there were more Volleyball movies. It’s a totally underrated sport. A great gem called “The Miracle Season” came out two years ago. If you come across it it’s worth a look.

Where is Blades of Glory?
