The football factory is a class film aswell as rocky I&II while rocky V was just like how the hell is this film this bad its so bad makes my teeth hurt

Last night on ESPN Classic, I watched "Knute Rockne All American" for the first time. I really liked it. It's kinda corny, but is still really good. And of course there's Ronald Reagan's famous line... "Win just one for the Gipper".

My two favorite are Slap Shot and Caddyshack. The 2 worst are probably the sequels. Caddyshack 2 is one of the worst movies ever made, and Slap Shot 2 I believe never even made it into theaters. It went straight to video.

raggingbull2003, you hated HOOSIERS? Boo!

Oh Freddie C., I love you man, but there are far worse football movies than ANY GIVEN SUNDAY, trust me(in fact, I thought REMEMBER THE TITANS was actually worse).

I agree that MAJOR LEAGUE was pretty darn good. However, what irony is how the movie's plot about the owner trying to move the Indians to Miami....and the poor Indians losing to (MY) Florida Marlins in the World Series in 1997. Man the irony is as thick as this very delicious mustard-laden turkey sandwich I'm eating at the moment.....yum!

Freddie C, I also watched Knute Rockne, All American the other night. It is a little hokey, but the acting is good so it doesn't degenerate into a lame movie. And the football action is choreographed very well.

If the definition of "sports" could be expanded to include surfing and dirt bike racing, I would have to add The Endless Summer and On Any Sunday, two classics by director Bruce Brown.

The Endless Summer is best viewed on the biggest screen possible...if you have a projector, it's even better.

Another good surfing movie is BIG WEDNESDAY, co-written and directed by John Milius(who among other things was a scripter on APOCALYPSE NOW and later directed CONAN THE BARBARIAN).

It's hard to pick a favorite but it's also hard to go against Rocky. A bad one that I can think of right now is the Rodney Dangerfield one, The Ladybugs.

For a more recent one, I suggest Friday Night Lights, it was done very well and seems like it almost went unnoticed when it came out.
