Ah, I forgot that one. Great movie!!

Patton-doesn’t get more rousing than his opening speech-titanic performance.

Lance Armstrong scene in dodgeball. Brief cameo where he says even with cancer in his brain, balls and lungs he didin’t quit.

With a BIG emphasis on Shawshank[/quote]

Great choices. Love all of those. Will add Gattaca, Gladiator, and American Beauty.

Rocky Balboa, it was everything i wanted it to be and more, i dare you to watch the training montage and not be dying to hit the weight room afterwards.

It is about some losers midlife crisis.

It is slow paced, predictable, poorly acted but artfully filmed so it got rave reviews.

Just thinking about seeing it makes me want to gouge my eyes out.

Invincible was fantastic.

Pursuit of happyness(?) was inspiring. Take your kids to see it.

WTC with Nicholas Cage. WOW!

Schindlers list…talk about putting your balls on the line.

Invincible. Just saw it the other day and it was pretty damn awesome.

Plus, Wahlberg is definitly the man to play the part.
