Slap Shot

Dunno why I've never heard of this movie. Its great!

From wiki:

Film critic Gene Siskel noted that his greatest regret as a critic was giving a mediocre review to this movie when it was first released. After viewing it several more times, he grew to like it more and later listed it as one of the greatest American comedy movies of all time. The Wall Street Journal's Joy Gould Boynum seemed at once entertained and repulsed by a movie so "foul-mouthed and unabashedly vulgar" on one hand and so "vigorous and funny" on the other.^[1] Michael Ontkean's strip tease displeased Time magazine's critic, Richard Schickel, who regretted that, "in the dénouement [Ontkean] is forced to go for a broader, cheaper kind of comic response."^[1]

Critical reevaluation of the film continues to be positive. In 1998, Maxim magazine named Slap Shot the " Best Guy Movie Of All Time " above such acknowledged classics as The Godfather, Raging Bull,^[2] and Newman's own Cool Hand Luke. Entertainment Weekly ranked the film #31 on their list of "The Top 50 Cult Films".^[3]

In the 2007 50th Anniversary Issue, GQ named the Slap Shot one of the "30 films that changed Men's Lives."^[4] In the November 2007 issue ofGQ, Author Dan Jenkins proclaimed Slap Shot "the best sports film of the past 50 years".^[5]

In June 2008, Adam Proteau of "The Hockey News" rated "Slap Shot" as the best Hockey film ever made.^[6]

The Hansen Bros Debut

Lol, gotta watch this

Inspirational Speeches

Which is the most inspirational speech in the movies?

Obvious contenders are:


Mel Gibson's Braveheart Speech


Al Pacino's "One Inch" Speech from Any Given Sunday


Bill Pullman's Independence Day Speech


Henry V's St Crispin's Day Speech in Renaissance Man

However, this is my pick for Best Inspirational Speech:

Ducks Fly Together!

Best Breakup Speech Ever

from the movie The Foot Fist Way

Braveheart

Secret

I love all these kinds of scenes, the battle scenes of a certain type. I loved the cooking battles like in The God of Cooking and The Chinese Feast. I also love music battles.

Here's a scene similar to "The Legend of 1900" called "Secret" with Jay Chou in it:

Piano Duel where Jay duels Yu Hao

Piano Duet with Kwai Lun-Mei

Their Skills are the real deal. Here is Jay and Yu Hao performing live in their concerts:

Finally! A realistic fight scene!

I like movies that demonstrate realistic fight scenes, demonstrate real martial arts mastery and realistic combinations that WOULD realistically work on the streets, unlike those hollywood fake movie scenes

80s Movies

I just "attained" Short Circuit 1 & 2 for my son, and he enjoys both of them. So I was looking around for some other movies that I used to watch. 

Like Mannequin 1 & 2.....

Super Snooper...

and Airplane 1&2

JCVD : Van Damme Monologue

The Greatest Movie Line Ever

Shark 3. Incredibly bad movie, but with the greatest line ever

Boondock Saints

Great show, not well known but a cult classic

Climax of the movie

If you have never seen it, here is the whole movie:

Pulp Fiction

Arguably the climax of this great movie

Sylvester Stallone, I salute you!

I quite like the fact that both finales to the franchises went back to their roots, good story telling. The story lines may be linear and simple, but a good story is a good story.


Tribute to Rambo


Tribute to Rocky

DEFINITELY the BEST scene of all.. from the Fantastic Four

Much Ado About Nothing

Sigh no more, ladies, sigh nor more; Men were deceivers ever;
One foot in sea and one on shore, To one thing constant never; Then sigh not so, But let them go, And be you blithe and bonny;
Converting all your sounds of woe Into. Hey nonny, nonny.

Sing no more ditties, sing no mo, Or dumps so dull and heavy;
The fraud of men was ever so, Since summer first was leavy. Then sigh not so, But let them go, And be you blithe and bonny,
Converting all your sounds of woe Into. Hey, nonny, nonny.


Joyous Ending

The Watch scene Pulp Fiction

Transformers Voice acting

For the geek in me:

Ratatouille

One of my favourites (I have many don't I).... Ratatouille
