I loved the book, but I didn't care much for the movie. Boobie got hurt in a scrimmage and not in an actual game, he didn't get on the bus to attend the last game of the year, they never made it to the state finals, Brian Chavez played TE/DE, and field turf didn't exist back in 1988.

Otherwise, it was ok.

The movie was terrible.  It didn't discuss most of themes that were in the book (racism, bending grades for athletes, the political and social rivalry of Odessa and Midland, etc.)  To top that off, they put all the players during the games in UA gear, which wasn't even invented in 1988.  I've never been more disappointed watching a movie.  On second thought, that was the last date on went on with my girlfriend at that time, so double whammy.

One other thing - is there any other program in the entire country with a HC and two assistants? No S&C guy? No recruiting coordinator? Who coached special teams?

Nobody heard from that nerdy E Gordon Gee professor guy after that meeting with Sonny Corleone.

I voted for Frozen. My group of friends have a bunch of little girls and it would have been fun to take them to the stadium but we will probably pass and see what they do next year. I thought Frozen or Goonies had a good chance but it makes sense that the football movie would win.

Every time I think of "Remember the Titans" I think how strange it was to hear super intense football coaching going on while they use squeaky clean language. I know it's a Disney production but it is still a glaring quirk.

Goonies over this corny movie. "Ain't no mountain high enough..." & fat dudes aren't racist. Gtfo, coach. I feel like Goonies or Frozen won but they already decided on Titans ha.

Well, if it was going to be a football film, then I do agree with others - this is definitely one of the better ones out there. Actually, I watched it again a couple weeks ago and it really doesn't lose anything for me. Very strong from start to finish, I thought. My kids - being 8 and 7 - this might be a hit-or-miss proposition as it isn't quite their cup of tea yet anyway.
