    Ep. 131 - Rocky Balboa
    2023/06/07
    We've arrived at the series finale of Scoring At The Movies! We're wrapping up this every-other-Thursday chat show about sports films by digging into Rocky...again. Rocky Balboa is filled with emotion, nostalgia (oh, is it nostalgic!) and many references to previous films in the franchise, not to mention a slew of quirky, Rocky-specific details. It's one of the best of the first 5 sequels as it highlights the lonely ex-boxer struggling mightily with the death of his beloved Adrian. Sylvester Stallone's return to the series after the failure of Rocky V represents some of the best work he did in the original 6. He even gets to end Balboa's improbable boxing career on a "full circle" high note. Then after our hour-plus gab about this cheesy/fun movie, we spent around 15 minutes summing up our feelings about doing this podcast for the past 5 years. So race up the steps for the last time and get rid of the stuff in the basement as Ryan & Chris ring the final bell on Scoring At The Movies.

  • Ep. 130 - For Love of The Game

    Ep. 130 - For Love of The Game
    2023/05/25
    We're talking about baseball for the last time as Kevin Costner plays a Detroit Tigers pitcher in For Love Of The Game. The film spends about an equal amount of time between the Costner/Kelly Preston love story and him trying to achieve something monumental: throw a perfect game. We thought the romance had too many tonal problems to take it seriously, although you can't say it was shoehorned in. It's essential to the way director Sam Raimi tells the flashback-heavy story. Even though we admired a lot of the action depicted on the diamond, we were pedants about A LOT of the errors. Costner's 3rd baseball flick is just a frustrating experience, although there are some moments that are as exciting as a game-winning home run in the bottom of the 9th. So clear the mechanism as we talk to ourselves on the mound and maybe shed some tears in our penultimate episode about For Love Of The Game.

  • Ep.129 - Rollerball

    Ep.129 - Rollerball
    2023/05/11
    In our 3rd-last episode, we're talking about a cynical, sci-fi movie about a made-up sport called Rollerball. Norman Jewison's dour 1975 film juggles a lot of balls and comments on many social issues (as Jewison often did in the films he directed), but he didn't draw either of us into his take on a dystopian future. James Caan mostly just mutters and sulks. He's not at his tough-guy best, although at least he and the stunt performers are convincing when they're playing this ultra-violent game. We agreed that the picture is absolutely well-made, showing a 2018 that was grounded in reality, not The Jetsons. It's just not a picture we ever care to see again. So instead of gleefully exploding trees with a hand cannon, why not be true to yourself and buck fascist authority figures, no matter who gets hurt? And while you're doing that, we'll be over here trying to figure out Rollerball. Oh, and for the record, we've covered 3 poker movies on this channel, not just 1 or 2: Rounders, Casino Royale and Molly's Game.
