Draft Day Movie

Recommended Posts

waterworld is an entertaining movie. One of his better movies: IMO.

 

It was one of the biggest bombs of all time--I never saw it--Dances with Wolves either--did not want to see Costner out-acted by a wild K-9 and a runt Buffalo.

 

Here is what Wiki says about Waterworld as to why it does not appear on the biggest box office bomb top 50 list:

 

Waterworld is an example of a movie that does not appear on lists of box office bombs, despite enormous budget overruns, because the film broke even after making huge revenues from foreign box office, rentals, pay-per-view fees, cable outlays, and other revenue streams that exist independently of the North American theatrical system.

 

The idea is sorta good--Mad Max with fins

I know it bombed in the box office.

It's easy to understand why. The film went so over budget that it couldn't out earn it with bad reviews.

Let me also say that I HATE Kevin Costner.

He is the most over rated actor of all time.

But he plays a good asshole.

Waterworld is a fun movie.

Get over what it didn't do in the box office, and what stupid critics say.

It's one of the most played movie on the movie channels for a reason.

It was a really fine movie it's no money ball but i liked it. If you're like pretty much everyone here and form your opinions based on what others think because you want to fit in or be cool then you wont like it but if your a movie person and like the nfl but know that its a fuging movie and not real life you will highly enjoy this flick. it's very accurate in a sense to what FANS believe nfl gms do on draft day. it's not a 100% portrayal of what they go through but its a good start. So  if your willing to stop being cool according to the hippie hivemind that is carolina huddle then i recommend going to see it.

go see it you jaded bastards, it's a good flick.

 

it has its wonkey moments (the little nerdbag intern they cast for comedic relief is absolutely useless and takes up about three minutes of pointless scenes) but any fan of football should enjoy seeing this portrayal on the big screen. at best the climax is pretty goddamn awesome no matter what your opinion of the rest of the movie is, and at worst it's about the browns, so that lends itself to some funny moments throughout the movie.

 

panthers references include a poster on the wall of the browns front office featuring the 24-23 final score of the panthers-browns game in 2010 when john kasay bounced the fuging kick off the uprights and lost us the game, which was a knife in the fuging heart because it was the motherfuging browns, but thankfully led directly to our drafting sir cameron newton, who is featured in the photo montage as credits roll.

Well we know its not since they are using actual NFL teams. Thus the NFL had to sign off on the final cut, thus any thing shady, fugged up, or embarrasing that happens every draft was left out.

Exactly. I think I'd be more interested if it wasn't NFL approved like Any Given Sunday or something

Hey now! That used to be my jam when i was 5 years old.

 

Have you see "Robin Hood, Men in Tights"?  If so, Kerry Elwes (I think that is how you spell it)  the actor who played Robin Hood in that movie, takes a cheap shot IN THE MOVIE at Costner.  He looks at the camera and says something like "This Robin Hood has a consistent British accent"

 

The Costner movie is also the only time I have seen Morgan Freeman play someone other than Morgan Freeman in a movie.  He has an accent.

 

The movie is laughably bad--but when I was five, I loved some crap.  Still do.

 

Hope this doesn't ruin it for you

Kevin Costner did do poo since the bodyguard man. And yes I like that film it makes me feel romantic and happy with my girl! I can't think of anything worse than a film based on a guy stuck in a war room trying to make the browns look like patriots

When Costner closes his eyes and shoots those two "would be" killers outside in the snow - WOW!!! I get chills thinking about it.

Sorry man....I couldn't help myself.

    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country. 
    • Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
