Has anyone here ever seen the movie Coach Carter?

[Alucard188]

I got it on DVD tonight at the advice of a friend of mine, and I must say it's one of my favorites. Anyone else seen it yet?

[a nirvana fan]

Yeah I've seen it and can honestly say it's rubbish.

Cheer up, emokid.

Ahem, anyone else?

May I ask what on earth a "emokid" is?

I've seen it and it is one of the better sports movies out their, Samuel Jackson did remind me of a real high school basketball coach, I also cant wait for Glory Road about the first all black starting five.

Maybe its cus I used to live near that neighborhood in Richmond but that film was good.
It made me laugh and was interestting.
That was the first film I saw my mom cry to,though for the life of me I cant figure out why.

I've never seen the movie, but I heard the real Coach Carter speak at a conference one time.

[Venom]

I saw it, I can honestly say I liked it:)

[Doomie]

I didn't see it but it looked reaaaaally good. So far, I think Remember the Titans is the best sports movie ever made.

[Shadow The Red XIII Thing]

One of my favs but there were better.

Sports movies nowadays just shame the better ones like Mighty Ducks.

Friday Night Lights was a good one, just REALLY inaccurate historically.

-Permian played IN Marshall who is Red and white (not purple and gold) and lost 13-12 instead of winning 41-7

-They played Carter in the Semi's not the State Championship game and lost 14-9 after dominating most of the game, not the other way around.

-Carter had to forfeit their state championship because of an ineligible player dispute. The movie never even TOUCHED on this.

-The town of Permian looked small and poor, when in actuality, they were quite rich. (took four private jets from Odessa to Marshall to play)

It's still a great movie, though. Had it been historically accurate, I'd probably consider it to be one of my favorites.

To whoever said Mighty Ducks, you rock. I liked Miracle a lot as well, though.

Hockey dont count in my book.:cool:
