Greatest football movie

[SACCAT]

I would have to go with RUDY. It is a true story about a great young man. All other Football movies are fake compared to RUDY!!!

The Hollywood Version:
It seems that back in the '70s, there was a plucky little football player who dreamed of nothing other than playing for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Unfortunately for young Rudy, his support system consisted of people who went out of their way to point out his flaws, of which there were many, and let him know repeatedly that dreams are the main ingredient in the devil's pudding.

Thankfully, Rudy's best friend from back home got blown right the ****** up in a freak accident, inspiring him to play football for some reason. And play he did, no thanks to the evil scheming of Notre Dame coach Dan Devine, who only allowed Rudy on the field after the entire team threatened to walk out otherwise.

In reality ...
The real life Dan Devine was actually the one who insisted on playing Rudy in his final game. Hell, even when the movie was being made, Devine gave the filmmakers permission to turn him into the film's villain in order to help Rudy, who he considered a good friend.

Devine sounds like one helluva guy, right? So naturally he was repaid for his kindnesses by being turned into the Snidely ****** Whiplash of college football (sans mustache), and forever being remembered as the crotchety coach to whom winning football games was more important than anything. Anything other than ensuring that Rudy's dream would die.


By the way, ever wonder who saw Rudy play that day and got so inspired he just had to make it into a movie? Nobody. It was Rudy himself who spent a full decade trying to convince studios that his life was so awesome it deserved a movie, before one of them finally relented. That's the spirit, little guy!

I thought "Invincible" was a pretty badass movie.

Either that or "Remember The Titans" is at the top of my list.

We Are Marshall and Facing the Giants was one of my favorite movies, I really enjoyed watching these kinds of movies. Can you please provide me the latest release football movies in 2012?

I hear "Year of the Cat", "Cat Scratch Fever", and "We are the CHAMPions: The True Story of DeNarius McGhee and the 2012 Bobcats" will all be box office hits this year.
