Tin Cup - gotta be one of the

[BootinUp]

funniest sports themed movies of all time. Any debate on that? I recorded it today, never seen the whole thing before.

Caddy: "You're brain was gettin in the way"

Tin Cup: "Well thats hardly ever been the case..."

1. Written by the same guy who did Bull Durham

"Does my inner child need a spanking? "

And Cheech Marin had some wonderful momments.

Romeo: Well, David Simms may be a "soulless robot", but he's a rich, happy, soulless robot... with a beautiful doctor lady girlfried. Besides, how's getting in the Open going to change what she thinks about you?
Roy: Well, it'll show her that I'm not who she thinks I am.
Romeo: But you are who she thinks you are!

9. Ron Shelton--one of my favorite screen writers. "The Great White Hype"

is an underrated masterpiece. Also wrote "White Men Can't Jump," "Play it to the Bone," "Blue Chips" (An unrecognized film, despite Shaquille O'Neal being quite amusing in it).

Sadly, once he gets away from sports, he sucks, as "Bad Boys 2" proves.

2. my vote is still for Slap Shot

[xmas74]

[DS1]

4. Aside from the 3 brothers

Slapshot blows :)

[ohiosmith]

12. Aside from the Hanson's AND seeing Ralphie's mom nude.

8. Nothing like "Lady of Spain" on the arena organ

what a great tune!

16. i second thlis one!

also i loved major league and of course caddyshack (would that be a sports movie or a movie about sports that uses golf as a metaphor for life?)

5. Good grief!

That was the top entry on The Definitive Top Ten Worst Films of All Time.

Read about it here if you don't believe me.

Seriously, that was the first film I ever rented and returned without watching all the way through. If you're not a crazy golf fan, I can't imagine how you can tolerate more than ten minutes of this dreadful, dreadful movie.

Of course, YMMV! :P

10. That's a dumb list.

Some of those were weak, but hardly worst. "Tin Cup" was genius--sorry you didn't get it. I'm not a golf fan, but I loved the film. I haven't seen some of them. "The Postman" was a good film, "Waterworld" was average but watchable.

Any list of Worst Films Ever that doesn't include "Ferris Buehler's Day Off" or the Lord of the Rings monstrosities isn't worth a darn, anyway. :)

13. Oh, I got it...

That's the whole problem. :puke:

But I'm with you re: Ferris Beuler. Wretched!

[jobycom]

14. Dude!!

:toast:

If you hated Ferris, I shall reevaluate your list! :rofl:

[guitar man]

6. yessss!!

I love that movie!!

Cheech kills me, he stole the show.

Put your change in your left pocket.


Go on, do it.


Now, tie your left
shoe in a double knot.


- Tie my left shoe?
- Right now, do it!


Turn the hat backwards.


Turn your hat around.
Do it, Roy!


Take this tee...


...and stick it...


...behind your left ear.


I look like a fool!


Well what do you think you look like
shooting those chili peppers up Lee Janzen's ass?

11. Costner: "I can make this shot."

Cheech: "Well then stop fucking around and do it." :rofl:

[jobycom]

15. Brilliant damn scene! nt

[Connonym]

7. Also proves the theory that Kevin Costner is only tolerable in sports movies

[pokerfan]

17. He was ok in Dances with Wolves

Because 90% of his lines were stilted voice-over narrations of him reading from his character's journal.

Untouchables wasn't bad either. "Gentlemen, let's do some GOOD!"
