Let me say that I also do enjoy all of the Disney renditions as well. Remember the Titans, Coach Carter, Glory Road, Invincible, The Rookie and Miracle.
Which Brian's Song? The one with Caan and Billy Dee? Or the other one that shouldn't have been made?

I will also cop to watching and enjoying The Champ.

Is anyone else man enough to admit to crying over Ricky Schroeder's emotional pleas?

Has anyone tried to sit through Caddyshack recently? I find the Rodney Dangerfield portions to be nearly unwatchable. The rest of the flick stands the test of time quite well.

Now, to my main point: how the hell does nobody have Karate Kid on the list? Allow me to be the first.

1) Hoosiers
2) Rudy
3) Karate Kid
4) Rocky I
5) Breaking Away

One of my old girlfriends thought this was the best movie ever she had ever seen so I agreed to see it with her. I told her I thought it was emotionally manipulative garbage. Things went downhill for us from there.
