Anything to Add, Monty? The Sporting Cinema Podcast

Episode 37 - The Waterboy

Pardon us, but we're back! I know it took 3 years, and some stuff has happened, but Anything to Add, Monty is back and Dave and John are here to discuss sports movies! To honor the rebirth of the podcast they discuss The Mighty Ducks, the sister movie to the founding film of this podcast. We discuss the weight bearing characteristics of ice, ultimate strategies for parental sports fandom, and take a harsh view of the Minneapolis legal system.

Episode 36 - The Mighty Ducks

Dave and John gave themselves a movie so bad that they needed help to figure it out so they invited friend/comedian Chris Clem to help.  We watched Celtic Pride, a movie that seems like it was shot in 1985, but really came out closer to the infamous Space Jam.  This movie hates basketball, and it probably hates you. But on a fun note it was written by Judd Apatow and Colin Quinn and features baby Jeff Ross.  But don't be fooled, these facts do nothing to change the fact that this movie hates you.  

Episode 35 - Celtic Pride with Chris Clem

Dave and John have just watched a really good movie, and it has Dave struggling to find things to say other than "Watch it!"  This historically accurate (for the most part) chronicle of the 1984 Men's olympic hockey team is engaging and inspiring. And none of the players complain that they play for team USA and not the ducks. 

Episode 34 - Miracle

An IMDB poster complained that in Bull Durham there wasn't enough focus on the minor league players.  So we though we would correct that and watch what we now know to be the worst movie we've covered so far.  We dig through the ditches, burn through the witches and slam in the back of Scott Bacula, with Major League: Back to the Minors, a movie in which people know each other for no reason, and nothing good happens at all. 

Episode 34 - Major League: Back to the Minors

It was only a matter of time.  Dave and John needed to take on an Air Bud movie.  So we did.  It wasn't as bad as we thought, but for different reasons than we originally thought.  So watch and be amazed by a movie where middle school basketball is king, the police don't exist and the rule books are CHECKED.  Enjoy Air Bud 

Episode 33 - Air Bud

DAVE AND JOHN ARE BACK!  We know you are excited.  The Hiatus is over and we are back to watching sports movies!  We picked a classic (at the time because it was going to coincide with the world series, but now it is lining up perfectly with spring training!   Great Work!  We have a lot of good things to say about this episode's movie, Bull Durham 

Episode 32 - Bull Durham

Dave and John take a look at the silly but pleasant Football/Labor Strife movie The Replacements.  We enjoy Gene Hackman's chuckle a lot, his hat a little less, and his consistent use of the word "wirey" not at all.  Watch Keanu Reeves in a part he was born to play.  Enjoy this episode, The Replacements.   

Episode 31 - The Replacements

Dave and John wax on and wax off, we also strike first, strike hard, and show no mercy.  We also sweep the leg.  And every other cliche, because we watched the original, 1984's The Karate Kid 

Episode 30 - The Karate Kid (1984)

A love letter to Austin in the aughts, we get roller derby fever.  Despite the presence of Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore, we enjoyed Whip It!

Episode 29 - Whip It

Dave and John are back, and we bring you good tidings as well as a good movie. We are no longer killing you, smalls, as we watched, The Sandlot   

Episode 28 - The Sandlot

After the last abomination, Dave and John enjoy a good Adam Sandler movie for a change. We watch the great golf classic "Happy Gilmore"  

Episode 27 - Happy Gilmore

The bar has been set.  This is the worst movie we've ever watched.  Period.  Offensive, rude and worst off, not funny.    

Episode 26 - The Benchwarmers

Dave and John finally get to this momumental mega hit.  Wacky, over the top and sometimes downright confusing, we watched Wrecking Ballz 

Episode 25 - Wrecking Ballz

Dave and John enjoy the football, and feel uncomfortable about the lying in this 90s movie that didnt actually get made until the early 2000's.  We watched Bend it Like Beckham! 

Episode 24 - Bend it Like Beckham

Join Dave and John as they watch and discuss sports movies, both good and bad.
