CaolinaJoe Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Has Lance Armstrong had a movie yet? If not, him hands down. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Something about curling, and unrequited love. If you want a curling movie, watch "Men With Brooms". Pretty good, kinda funny, and a small role by Leslie Nielsen. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IM shocked it has not been made already. That one's going to be a while, if it ever happens. DiMaggio was incredibly protective of his image, to the extent where he was fairly well-known for suing people for relatively minor things that he felt slighted him. A movie about him portraying him as anything but a near Godlike figure would almost certainly never see the light of day, as his agents/executors are just as protective as he was.

BBTV Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Maybe a Jordan movie, that shows him getting cut from high-school, winning the NCAA and NBA titles, becoming a huge business endorcer, dealing with the loss of his father, failing at baseball, failing as an executive, failing at marriage, then (arguably) failing at his last comeback. Throw in some gambling action and you have someone who has arguably been at the top and the bottom.
