    Mighty Ducks 1 & 2 (D3 never happened).
     
  2. I know I still wait for The Junior Goodwill Games every year.
    Who's got the network contract this year?

    Johnstown. You must mean "Ampipe," which is to "All the Right Moves" as "Charlestown" is to "Slap Shot."

    1 Happy Gilmore

    All The Right Moves is a bit of a hidden gem in Sports movies
    Fairly realistic as Sports movies go. Added bonus of lovely Lea Thompson answering the pink or brown question for those who wondered.

    Not the best film, but a decent film that never gets mentioned in these discussions:

    The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars and Motor Kings.

    Maybe I have a soft spot for it because it played 3 zillion times on North Muskegon cable's Channel Z. Got your cable 2-13 stations with the knob to the left of the set-top box, Channel Z with the knob to the right.

    I'm old.

    Hoop Dreams and Heart of the Game, two unreal hoops documentaries.

    Miracle is the best hockey movie not mentioned thus far.

    For a middle of the road, family picture, Miracle was very, very nice.

    No there is an Ambridge High School in Western PA, and I thought they filmed some of the scenes at Moe Rubenstein Stadium. They did not, so I am wrong on that one.

    But Ambridge's geographical rival's, Aliquippa, coach played the opposing coach in the movie.
