Miracle

perrin by perrinOG 2004 · Feb 6, 2004 · 323 views

So I went to go see Miracle tonight. It was such an awsome movie. It was even better than I expected. I'm so going to see it again. I would totally recomend it especially to anybody who likes hockey. The acting in it was pretty good considering the fact that almost none of the players were actual actors but they were really hockey players. Overall a great movie. 2 thumbs up.

Anybody else seen it?

yeah before it was even advertised me and someone else were drafted into sitting and reviewing the ads and what we thought of the movie. I told them i wasn't all that interested and i probably wouldn't see it..

socalgal #6.1 socalgalOG 2003

its such an awesome movie. but its best if you like hockey

perrin #6.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Yeah I know this is actually one of my favorite movies now.

socalgal #6.1.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

i can add it to my all time favs. i've watched it over and over.

perrin perrinOG 2004

I still haven't gotten around to buying it, gonna have to put that on my to do list for this weekend.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

oh wow, you'll probably wear your DVD out like i have! LOL

perrin perrinOG 2004

Yeah probably I wore out one of my old mighty ducks tapes and this movie is so good.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

LOL i luved the mighty ducks, it was SO cheesy but SO cute!

hey i jsut found out one of the new guys here plays hockey!!!

perrin perrinOG 2004

Yeah it was one of the few hockey movies out. I still like to watch it from time to time.
You talking about where you work?

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 perrin

yeah, he's a new designer.

we're going out to play ice next week. SO STOKED!!!!

perrin perrinOG 2004 socalgal

That's cool, I want to play so badly but nobody else seems to really want to play around here, they are all complaining it's just too hot. BAH!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 perrin

oh it is hot but you guys don't play ice huh?

perrin perrinOG 2004 socalgal

I don't. They used to play at like 11:30 at night and that was just too late for me because I had work at 2am so I never got the equipment. I would love to play on ice but it's never been worthwhile for me to get the equipment.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 perrin

WELLLLL make time! LOL seriously, YOU of all people would LOVE ice so much more so that roller. you slide around, you fall but you like slide when you fall....its jsut a must!!!

perrin perrinOG 2004 socalgal

Yeah but if you slide and don't get all scrapped up what fun is it? lol.
Yeah I know I really do I just don't have anyone around here who plays ice.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 perrin

think about this.....you're skating FULL speed, you get tripped or checked and you bang into the boards SO hard its not even funny

*i think you'll like it

perrin perrinOG 2004 socalgal

Oh now that sounds like my kind of fun. lol. I may have to go get some ice hockey equipment now.

fivezero #5 fivezeroOG 2003

everyone who saw this loved it. me and the lady are gonna rent it soon. good times.

jp #4 jpOG 2003

DVD comes out tommorow. I'm definately gonna get it. It's definately the best movie I've seen all year, and the best sports movie I've ever seen. Great job.

perrin #4.1 perrinOG 2004

Yeah I'm totally getting it too. It was such a great movie.

socalgal #4.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

we bought it!!!! YIPPPEEEEE

perrin #4.1.1.1 perrinOG 2004

NICE! I almost bought it yesterday when I was out but decided to wait because I could get it cheaper elsewhere. lol
What can I say I'm cheap. lol

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

hey if you can get it cheaper, i'd do the same thing

jp #3 jpOG 2003

Great movie. Saw it Friday and again Sunday. Russell plays a perfect Herb Brooks.

socalgal #2 socalgalOG 2003

I'm so stoked you enjoyed it! I was unable to make it this weekend, but I'm sure going to make it this week. That is truly great that they had real hockey players and not actors...although there are a sick amount of actors who do play hockey!

modestjesse #2.1 modestjesseOG 2004

Something tells me Dennis Leary wouldn't fit the role though.

socalgal #2.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

hmmmm....you never know...LOL I'm seriously kidding

#1 jollycandymanOG 2001

It looks like propaganda

And didn't it come out already as Mighty Ducks 2?

thatdarngirl #1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

That was my thinking.

perrin #1.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Except this movie is a real life event and 100 times better. I love the Mighty Ducks movies and all but this movies is soooooooo much better. It doesn't even compare at all. I went with some people who aren't even that into hockey and they even thought it was good.

thatdarngirl #1.1.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002 offtopic

Flying V! Flying V!

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

ducks stick together!

perrin perrinOG 2004

QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! GO DUCKS!!!!!

fivezero #1.1.1.2 fivezeroOG 2003

i wanna see it.

perrin perrinOG 2004

You should it's great.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004

Alright there tony. ;)

perrin perrinOG 2004

What's funny is that's exactly what I thought of when I wrote it.

modestjesse #1.2 modestjesseOG 2004

*sigh* Children need to brush up on their history. Comparing a true life story of inspiration to that of a Disney movie that produced the Mickey Mouse NHL team isn't right!

socalgal #1.2.1 socalgalOG 2003

SO TRUE!!!! 1982 Olympics people....Miracle on Ice....

modestjesse #1.2.1.1 modestjesseOG 2004

Um...wasn't it 1980.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

i thought it was 1982? MY BAD....

perrin perrinOG 2004

Yeah it was 1980. I actually watched the real game the night before I went and saw the movie they had it on one of those classic sports channels.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004

Another misconception is everyone thinks it was the Gold Medal game, it wasn't. Fact for the day.

perrin perrinOG 2004

Yeah they still had to win one more game to win the gold. The one major thing about them winning is that in every single game they played they had to come from behind to win. It truly was amazing that they won.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

then wasn't the game between Finland and Russia in 1982??

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004

I don't remember, but aren't the Olympics every 4 years?

beachbum #1.3 beachbumOG 2002

i thought the same thing at first-'oh another movie about how amazing america is blah blah' but it really was a good movie. the game was exciting. made me want to run out and play hockey right then.

modestjesse #1.3.1 modestjesseOG 2004 offtopic

Right then, right there in the theater? Did you, man that must have been crazy!

beachbum #1.3.1.1 beachbumOG 2002

i did. i keep my skates and stick in my back pocket. i whipped them out and created a fury.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

then suddenly "Battery" by Metallica started playing in the background. It was intense

socalgal #1.3.2 socalgalOG 2003

I'm going on monday....i can't wait! there's too many movies coming out!
