Puck, you missed the gist of my post. I put that CANADIAN movie 'Goon' as a "middling movie enjoyed by Canadians" vis-a-vis a great AMERICAN movie like Slapshot...the faux jingoism aside.   Paul Newman telling the unscrupulous owner her son's on the road to cocksucking was epic and I thought pretty much underscored the 'hail snapshot' intent.  Truth be told, I've never seen 'Goon' so take this for what it's worth but the trailer for Goon looked somewhat meh/forced versus the subversive humor of Slapshot.
Let me get back to you on that..

I will allow it.

Goon is a middling movie- The American Pie guy can't even skate by accident. Meh


Newman oth actually looked like a hockey player.

I had both movies in my watch queue for so long that they're not available anymore. Need to wait for them to circle back around.

If you play hockey and can't quote Slapshot, you're really putting a target on your locker room back. Anyway, it's top 1 or 2 sports comedies imo.

Slapshot has one of the best soundtracks

Metal Lords is a teen drama by the numbers with a completely predictable plot that has been done a hundred times, but it's well acted and quite funny, and the music is ace.

Uncharted was silly and fun, but it was objectively a crap movie. Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg were fun together so it passed a couple of hours without causing offense.

I was hopeful but this looks like an awful lot of shitty CGI.

Bad CGI or not this is going to be good. I believe in Dan Trachtenberg.
