The Hollywood Reporter dropped a “definitive” Top 25 sports-movie list… so we grabbed our gadgets (Nuke, Recast, Rocket, Sniper, Switcheroo, and the brand-new Double Tap) and blew it up. Chaos ensues. Friendships wobble. Space Jam soars. OJ: Made in America gets the boot. And yes, we argue about Hoosiers like our playoff lives depend on it.
What you’ll hear:
Defining what actually counts as a sports movie (docs vs. dramas vs. “there’s a ball in one scene”)
Nukes dropped on sacred cows, Recasts that sneak in sleepers, and dizzying Switcheroos.
Shock upsets: The Sandlot rockets up, A League of Their Own jumps the order, Rocky refuses to stay down
Guest Brian John shows up over-prepared and under-merciful
