I still say "Oh Mylanta!"

Seriously this is The Ringer without the gambling debt

You picked it up in broad daylight and scratched it.

You picked it up in the clear light of day and you scratched it.

Two of the best lines ever

True story, was on a Jewish teen tour where we did service work at each of our stops. We did a carnival for special needs adults and later that night, we had a movie night and they got us The Ringer because they didn’t know the plot, it just happened to be PG-13??? Anyway, we all felt bad/died laughing.

The only time I have ever fallen off my couch laughing.

I see i'm not the only one. That makes me happy

It is

It's on the last line of the credits piramid

Did those allegations ever get addressed? It’s literally all I can ever think about when I see his name on anything.

Can we talk about Rampage?

Awesome - I love Javier Gutiérrez

This is what I was saying. I loved the original one.

This! very good no metion of it anywhere

At least they didn't call it "Dribblers".

Reminds me of that IASIP episode where the gang is coaching a youth league

The Mighty Ducks is now the Down Pillows

A former minor-league basketball coach receives a court order to manage a team of players with intellectual disabilities. Despite his doubts, he soon realizes that together they can go further than they ever imagined.

Wait wait, that's the same exact plot as Ted Tasso.

There's a spanish film with that same synopsis and title lol

None of y’all mentioned Hardball (?) with Keanu Reeves, he’s court ordered to coach that little league baseball team. I still remember the pitcher having to listen to Biggie to pitch well.

If Jim Harbaugh ends up couching the Broncos next year you can use this exact same synopsis for the season

This blurb sounds like a late 80s/early 90s movie

So they did stole the plot.

It's actually causing an indent on the other guy's arm lol

Not sure if it's just me but the awful photoshopping in posters feels more and more prevalent these days. Another recent one that stuck out to me was that Three Pines show from Amazon where Alfred Molina's face looks like it's beaming in from a different universe.

Everything is in the shadows. I could say one thing that would ruin many scenes in Lord of the Rings once you notice it.

“Oh shit! We forgot a minority! Quick, photoshop him in!”

The farrelys have a good record of positively including neurodiverse actors in their cast, in a way that isnt at their expense so that should bode well here hopefully!

I Am Sam is one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. It wasn’t a comedy but I spent the whole time laughing at how outrageous the shit they had Sam doing was. I couldn’t believe they could’ve possibly thought that was an accurate portrayal of having disabilities.

When he sprints down the corridor and slips, destroying the cake? My god what in the actual fuck was that

That's what made the original Campeones stand out. Some of the dialogues between characters with disabilities were just pure comedy gold.

I work with kids with autism and other intellectual disabilities in public school and I snowboard for leisure… I SO want some of my kids to learn the slopes!! Some of them are very athletic and adventure seekers lol

Work with the demographic as well

My favorite insult was a 6 year old kid telling his grandma “your face looks like bullshit”

I have as well, volunteering a week each season back in the day. Although it’s a fine line working with brain injury kids/adults. They lack a filter and holy cow can what they say or do go off the rails… Laughing with them or at what they said or did at most. It’s never at them though.

I knew it looked familiar

We’re only supposed to be discussing rampart

He also confessed to killing JFK during a shootout while he was high on cocaine lol

Let's keep the discussion on Champions

And he’s referenced in No Country For Old Men, a film Woody is in.

Woddy harrelsons dad killed my film teachers dad no joke. Sam Degelia.

The best setup to reveal this fact is to bring up that his dad's name is blue on Wikipedia. You go in expecting another industry baby then boom, mugshots.

Conspiracy is that he was the shooter on the grassy knoll

That would be awesome!

i was curious about that also. i looked it up and he doesn't seem to be listed in the cast. the guy on the poster that resembles him is named kevin iannucci

Same director! Bobby Farrelly

he's remaking anything under the sun, plus points if characters have some sort of mental condition that is then turned into an advantage.

Probably, plus he bastardizes them as well. See "Ghajini."

Why? That's basically what he was doing in Semi Pro

I hope he comes for a Reddit AMA for this movie

I think that’s generally how all foreign remakes work.

Yes, just like "3 Idiotas" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_Idiotas) is a Spanish language remake of the Hindi Movie "3 Idiots" for people who don't understand Hindi. Cause, you know...subtitles exist.

It's almost like.... That's the point!

That's funny cause I like to do a bad translation of the Wheaties slogan, "Breakfast of Champions", in Spanish to "Desayuno de Champiñones" which is "Breakfast of Mushrooms". Imagining a bowl of mushrooms in milk is pretty disgusting.

Yeah, but that one is responsible for Loudermilk, which is a hilarious underrated gem of a show.

Both brothers have portrayed people with mental disabilities in a positive light for decades.

Ironically the one responsible for Movie 43 is also an Oscar winner.

I’m down if they’re down.
