I love Slap Shot, but if I take my love of hockey out of the equation I think Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, and A League of Their Own are probably better movies.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

And Ron Shelton was the writer director of White Men, Tin Cup and Bull Durham. Perfect triple feature.

Bad News Bears is probably my favorite sports movie.

It was really weird to rewatch Bull Durham when I lived in Durham. Lots and lots of it was shot in places I went all the time. (Like the old ball park, which we walked by on the way to the Farmer's Market every week.)

Necessary Roughness makes me happy, especially the ref describing the karate moves.
