"White men can't jump" is the GOAT basketball movie

[90sgoat]

Everything was better in the 90s.

[highwhey]

yes. rosie was a babe too

[90sgoat]

She was fine, watching it right now, they show titties too.

[1987_Lakers]

Good choice, but I always liked He Got Game the most growing up.

Does Uncut Gems count? It has basketball elements. :lol

He Got Game is good too, will rewatch next, but White Men Can't Jump has the GOAT vibe and handchecking.

Man, this movie is ****ing great, should have won an Oscar.

[Lakers Legend#32]

Best Hoops Movies

1. Hoop Dreams

2. He Got Game

3. White Men Can't Jump.

[1987_Lakers]

Man, this movie is ****ing great, should have won an Oscar.

It's a good movie, but it's basically a comedy. Comedies don't usually win Oscars.

It for sure wasn't a better film than Unforgiven or A Few Good Men.

[90sgoat]

Unforgiven is also GOAT but for different reasons. Hits hard.

I forgot the ending of White Men Can't Jump, I thought it was a happy ending, but Gloria actually leaves and they're back to hustling or maybe not. Great film.

Did she really say that? :lol That was philosophical, some quantum mechanics meet the Bhagavad Gita thing.

Air Bud was better imo. That was a heart breaking movie.

That’s from the movie, so it’s def not accurate to claim she said that instead of her character.

[Hey Yo]

She was fine, watching it right now, they show titties too.

Her voice and accent annoying AF

What a surprise :ohwell:

[Nowoco]

The interesting thing about White Men Can't Jump, He Got Game and Blue Chips is that all three dont have happy endings.

Billy loses Gloria despite beating the King and Duck.
Jake was betrayed and ends up back in the joint.
Pete admits to being part of the college scandal and is suspended.

It's rare for sports movies to not have happy endings.

[Phoenix]

Shit I don't think I've seen this movie since the 90's.

[90sgoat]

Shit I don't think I've seen this movie since the 90's.

You should watch it again, it's seriously great, the whole vibe. I really wanted to be Billy.

I just might lol. I remember having it on VHS and watching the shit out of it back in the day.

The line didn’t come off that bad in the movie lol. It seemed like girl logic to get her man to stfu.

I think happy endings are more common today, millennials can't deal with uncertainty.

My two favorite bball movies are white man can't jump and he got game

[Lakers Legend#32]

The second best basketball movie is Semi-Pro.

I was majorly disappointed in this.

I thought we were gonna get a real movie about the ABA.

Instead we get another vehicle Will Ferrell doofus white guy sports movie.

It was funny though, but yes, the ABA could make for a good serious bball film.

[JohnnySic]

Its not really a basketball movie; its a comedy that has basketball.

Hoosiers is a basketball movie.

[Lakers Legend#32]

Has anyone seen the recent remake?
