You know the type - Tango & Cash, Days of Thunder, etc. The train wreck you click across that consumes your life in 2 hour chunks.

Tie, between "Next of Kin" and "Roadhouse". Not only do these both suck, but I really really hate Patrick Swayze.

Exactly. Let's start with most anything starring Stallone (non-Rocky only) or Seagal. Others mentioned "Roadhouse". I'd expand that to any Patrick Swayze action flick, especially "Red Dawn". Real men would rather have a root canal than watch Swayze in a "sensitive" role.

Major League - hilarious, perhaps the best sports spoof movie ever (can't think of another off the top of my head)

Sniper - awesome movie. Good action/war type movie. Original perspective in that genre.

Well I wasn't the one that posted about Major League, although I did think it was a funny movie. I'm sure that's probably true. I don't know much about the life a pro baseball player. However, I don't think Major League even pretended to be serious.

Not alot of reviews avaliable, but 94% freshhh is damn good.

I see where you're coming from, I think; Major League is stupid. Real stupid. And I don't think that one could make a valid arguement for Major Leauge as a good piece of cinema, but I think there's a clear difference between good cinema and a good movie and this film is a good example of that.

Anybody ever see a movie from the mid 80's called 'Dudes'?

It stars John Cryer and Flea, from the Red Hot Chilipeppers has a small role. John Cryer and Flea play punk rockers. Flea is murdered by bikers on a road trip at the beginning of the film and John Cryer spends the rest of the movie finding the Cowboy within himself and hunts down the murder of his friend.

The movie had a great soundtrack but man did this movie suck! That wouldn't stop me from watching it if they ever showed it on TV though. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

1. Point Break - Any movie where Keanu Reeves secretly lives out his life long fantasy of being a QB for Ohio State is a good movie.

2. Major League - Best. Sports. Movie. Ever. So far the one person who doesn't think so is the transplanted Yankee Fan.

3. As far as the movies I watch whenever they come on TV?
-Iron Eagle
-Iron Eagle II
-D3: Mighty Ducks
-Starship Troopers
-Hudson Hawk
-The Chase
-Joe Versus the Volcano

I love the old Leisure suit larry picture. That was one of the greatest games ever. My favorite part is when the prostitute steals all your money and you gotta go win it all back with the $10 "hidden emergency" money at the casino.

After playing this game I always keep "hidden emergency money" in my wallet.
