as my buds here know, i don't get out to movies so i don't see 'em until they get to tv. just saw "we are marshall" on hbo.

what a wonderful job done by all. 8) 8) 8)
 
I just saw it on HBO for the first time, too, Shockey. I really liked it. The Bobby Bowden part was interesting.

I couldn't stand the way McConaughey talked out of the side of his mouth the whole time...

Precisely. He should be barred from appearing in another film after that performance.
 
I liked it, but when I was in college, Marshall was our most hated rival, so I doubt I'll see it more than the one time I saw it over the weekend.
 
I thought it was yet another cheap, paint by the numbers inspirational sports movie by Disney.
 
We go to lots of movies, but I didn't think I'd like it and thus didn't see it until it went on HBO. I was surprised how good it was.

It was better than that. It wasn't a feel-good story about race or living on the other side of the tracks like all those other mass-produced pieces of crap.

It had its cheesy moments - the speech in the graveyard was awful - but overall it was better than I expected.
 
I recorded it tonight in my TiVo tuner but haven't watched it yet. I've been looking forward to this for quite some time.

Great movie. I never want to see it again.
Am also watching it for the first time, sort of.
I watched the second half Saturday and the first half now.
I know Ms. Slappy wouldn't watch the first half.

You tell me what happens in the first half and I'll tell you what happens at the end of Titanic.
Matthew McConnaghey lusts after Kate Winslet when the ship crashes into the side of the mountainous iceberg
 
The movie Bobby Bowden is taller than McConnaghey...since Bobby Bowden is 2-foot-7 in real life, I think this is fiction
