Re: Top 5 Sports Movie Scenes
I watched the Draft Day movie with Kevin Kostner the other day and it was pretty good.

Fishing movie review!
Tonight beaverfever and beaverfever’s 19yo girlfriend and I watched “Man Vs.” on Netflix.
It’s like this solo survival scary flick where this dude is surviving and documenting it and this evil something starts fucking with him. Like Man vs. Wild, plus either Blair Witch or Predator, you dunno!
It’s really good acting by the dude, way better than Bear Grylls, plus one scene his wife satellite phones him a nudie vid.
Mostly it’s well-executed phychogical suspense horror. He’s out there by himself, except he realizes more and more he’s not by himself. Who knows what’s fucking with him. He assumes it’s a bear or a wolf, until it starts doing freaky shit like setting primitive traps for him just like he does for rabbits, and also beating him in chess.
The ending is kind of a let down. It’s so open ended - sequel alert! - and the quality psycho suspense ultimately yields to low-rent cgi lulz.
3 stars.
That’s one star for survival suspense, one star for good acting and clever GoPro footage, and one star for his wife’s solid rack.
It looses points for the weak ending, plus not really much about fishing except for this one scene where all these fish in the lake are inexplicably floating around dead.

Re: Top 5 Sports Movie Scenes
If we're going with Wildlife movies in the sports genre, may I heartily recommend "Grizzly Man." Entertainingly odd and grusome.
Re: Top 5 Sports Movie Scenes
The original movie, "Buffalo Rider", was wonderfully horrible.
Then, this cool little band from Austin decided to get high, and record a "song-over" bits of the film. It's hilarious.
BTW, saw these guys live a couple of times. They actually really good.

Happy President's Weekend everyone - and good luck getting "Hey, Guy on a Buffalo" out of your heads.

I seriously want to go jizz all over the back of my office door thinking about the whipped cream bikini.

We fired up Netflix looking for something to watch. I suggested Arrested Development, but Beav wanted to watch Deliverance instead.
Starts with a solid jam session between this little hillbilly and some city boy. Then it gets into this canoe trip that should be rad, but end up getting raped by these local creeps. It’s dark, violent, disturbing shit.
1 star.
I briefly considered 2 stars cuz it least has a serviceable bowfishing scene, but then it looses that second star because Burt Reynolds with no mustache, I mean wtf is that?
