skymama 37 #1 February 7, 2004 15 year old daughter.... before the movie: "Mama, why do I have to go to this movie? I don't even like sports, and we already know that they win in the end." during the movie: her leg shook from nervousness, she bit her nails, and she cheered and clapped. after the movie: "Mama, that's the best sports movie I ever saw. It's a 10+. Can we get the soundtrack?" Go see it. It's the "Rocky" of this Millenium. It's great, and appropriate for the whole family to see.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wzettler 0 #2 February 7, 2004 Sounds to me like theres a good Mama taking her kid to the movies... I think when Jesus said "love your enemy" he probably meant don't kill them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #6 February 7, 2004 My fiancee saw the ad, saw my mouth water, adn said, "Hmmm. Hockey. I'll bet you'll watch it." So I started telling her about Herb Brooks and the team and how Coach Brooks just died and made it about 10 seconds till she gave me the look of "not interested" and we watched tv. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyhi 24 #7 February 7, 2004 QuoteWe went with my parents also. We're a very dorky family. I remember when I went to see "Deliverance" with my 'rents. Who knew? Years of therapy after that one. Mom was never the same. Sounds like a new poll for some industrious person not jumping today, "Best Inspirational Sports Flicks". I would add "Vision Quest", "American Flyers", and "Breaking Away".Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdgregory 0 #10 February 7, 2004 QuoteWe went with my parents also. We're a very dorky family. Hey you cannot say that! That is our Family name. Wherever we go people say, there's the Verydorky Family. See look at my name: Sean D. Verydorky. Unless of course we are somehow related by a not so distant cousins mother's third cousin's great aunt's niece or something. I cannot wait to see Miracle. We will of course wait for the DVD like we always do. Don't know about you but it costs me 100 bucks to take my family to the movies. So we bought a nice widescreen TV and surround sound and a popcorn mchine and do a theater thing at the house. 47' Widescreen TV - $2000 "Miracle" DVD - $19.99 Popcorn Maker - $30.00 60 lbs of popcorn kernels - $10.00 Choice of Candy - $10.00 4 2-liters of Soda - $3.00 Sitting around the house in your jammies with your Verydorky family and farting during the film only to find out you need to pause and go to the restroom - PRICELESS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
