‘Slap Shot’ With Bill Simmons, Sean Fennessey, and Chris Ryan | The Rewatchables | Ringer Movies 

I cannot believe you guys declare this the greatest sports film ever….i am taken aback. Americans showing SLAP SHOT this much love….wtf? I was shocked it was even a choice for discussion. Man, this might be my all time favorite episode. Cheers!

I had to pause this to watch Slapshot for the first time- Loved it!!!!

I can't believe you guys didn't bring up that Paul Newman's leather suit was the same suit that SGA wore in the playoffs only missing the shirt and tie.

I saw this movie in a double feature with animal House. It was at a dollar theater. One of the greatest nights of my life.

Oglethorpe covering his eyes is on the list of all-time physical comedy moments

Bill, Russillo, and Kyle Brandt doing Youngblood is the hockey pod I want.

Every hockey bus in Canada had a copy

Need a "The Sting" rewatchables next.

38:12 Stu Nahan was LA’s Jim Carr. His APEX mountain was his eponymous Spicolli interview in Fast Times AND 1:38 - EVERY musician who was ever in a band has seen Spinal Tap 100’s of times.

The dubbed version in French is an absolute gem as it was done in Quebec. Denis Lemieux dubbed himself!!

Great shout out to Shoresy, CR. Shoresy is brilliant.

How do you do this film and not mention Andrea casually getting 6 feet of air at about 70 miles an hour down a crowded hilly street in a 70’s van. I laugh out loud every time I see it. 😂

I’ve been listening to this podcast for a couple years. I’ve never seen Chris or Sean. They look nothing like what I thought they would. I thought I had them spot on in my head.

It didn't get brought up but the reason the Hanson's didn't keep acting was because they kept playing pro hockey for another decade plus

Maybe 2. Rocky 1. I get why Bill has to talk about language not aging well, but it makes it more realistic, and locker room talk exists today.

Also, thank you for the Shoresy mention. The show is great. Love Letterkenny and Shoresy.

Newman said after this movie that he couldn't stop swearing. I believe something along the line of "pass me the fucking salt" to his young child.

They won a bunch of games on the road before the first home game with the Hansons that’s why it was sold out for their first game

Easily a top three movie for me, any genre. Paul of course was awesome and former hockey player Michael Ontkean as Ned great also.

And the best needle-drop is clearly "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" by Leo Sayer. They're in the bar and Newman cons the goalie into thinking he can't pickup Francine. Boom, needle drop. Sweeps out a hand and the two of them are dancing in the most 70's scene ever. Maxime Nightingale is also the best and exemplifies exactly why that era of pop music was special. Everyone loved that stuff so you could actually dance to contemporary pop music at the bar and sleep with each-others wives and look really trashy doing it and no one had a problem with it. God, what a time to be an adult. Now it is just freakin' PTA meetings and road rage.

A classic if there ever was one, and the most coverage The Ringer has given hockey this playoffs. (Stick taps to Katie Baker)

One of my favorite movies! Once again if you feel like doing Bull Durham you should do it as a live show in Durham. The old DBAP is still there, as is Annie's house, her walking path. Bull Durham had a premier at the Carolina Theater (also still here). And Durham people will come out for anything Bull Durham related.

In Canada it is the best sports movie of all time. In Quebec it is legend.

CR is giving off a lot of “pint of Guinness and a heater” energy

We will not tolerate Shoresy slander here in Canada 🇨🇦

McNabb was one of the guys who went into the stands for the Bruins!

Finally!!! Thank you for doing this classic 👍

I went to high school basketball game, this guy turned into a werewolf and they won by 20!

Lisa Bonet was revelatory. When are you guys doing Angel Heart? Im thinkin Bill, C.R., Van Lathan, and Mallory Rubin.

Ottawa Senators catching strays….first losing a first-round pick thanks to Pierre Dorion’s mismanagement, now this.

Yesssss!!!! I bought a Chiefs jersey at the HHOF and it's still one of my favourite jerseys

I wish they had a category for best swearing.

Slap Shot!!!! Finally!!!!!! Thank you, Thank you!!

Eight Men Out is rsther underratted and mostly forgottwn.

Rempe mention made my day

The québécois french translation of this movie is legendary. Shout out Yvan Ponton!

Nice to have the Major League shoutout in best sports movies! Also, when are you doing Major League!!!???

Hanrahan.....is Eddie Arcadian from The Last Dragon.

I love Slap Shot, buy Miracle is great too.

Shorsey, Saskatchewan and Moose Jaw shoutouts let’s go!

The Secret War of Harry Frigg was an NYC TV staple on channels 5 or 9 or 11 in the late 70s/early 80s. I used to watch it every time it came on with my dad. Pretty good, not great, but pretty good.

1:38:28 my mind went straight to the sandlot for baseball.

“She underlined the F*** scenes?” “That’s what they teach you in college.” “Not the F*** scenes!” Lol

I feel like every surfer has watched Endless Summer and has that poster right?

hanson bros 4 life

Chris interrupting count. 235

"Just one Oscar, who gets it?" The freakin' costume designer! You have Paul Newman out there in a full-length dark brown trench-coat with mink trim and a one piece brown leather leisure suit looking like the Waffen SS's pimp, and you are giving it to anyone else? The only reason they didn't win is that everybody dressed that way in the 70's so no one noticed. Your grandma dressed like that. Look at the pictures.

I think Reg was thinking he could get a coaching job in the NHL.

Please watch Rudo Y Cursi. Yes it has subtitles but it has everything Bill wants. Also please have Bill watch Andor - it also has 2 of his favorite things - prisons and heists.

🐐

Before the feed concludes there are 2 incompletes: Necessary Roughness and Taking Care of Business 🔑 Get it together, gang

A ton of The Rewatchable videos (just audio) have disappeared from youtube. Can someone please explain why?

Every amateur wrestler grew up watching Vision Quest sooner or later.

Wayne Jenkins 🤣

Slap Shot/North Dallas Forty double feature is inspired

Bring back dialogue like this in comedies. Who cares if it’s politically incorrect. We all acknowledge we love these type of movies

Visionquest and Wrestling

The man who hosts a movie podcast, has a media company that produces several movie related podcasts and who just launched a RU-vid channel dedicated to movie content called 'Ringer Movies' calling cinephile fans obsessed with 'The Shining' "nut jobs" is an interesting choice to build the brand 😅. Also... the man that has had, what now, 4 episodes on the movie 'Heat' and a 5 hour episode about boogie nights and references '48 hours' every 7 minutes saying that peoples obsession with a movie makes them 'nut jobs' is also... a choice. 🤣

How does "putting on the foil coach" not get mentioned?

IN THE SUMMER?!?!??

John Brophy, from Antigonish Nova Scotia

Cant believe Spotify makes CR wear a badge

Rob Zombie was going to make a movie based on the 'Broad Street Bullies'}Flyers

What does “when the feed ends in five months”. What feed?

How did Brad Sullivan (Mo) not get "Best That Guy"?

How was Beverly D'Angelo left off the "first topless" list?

Syracuse Bulldogs = the old Syracuse Blazers. Ogie Oglethorpe = Bill Goldie Goldthorpe.

This feed can never end. And my goodness...30 yrs for PF?

If you haven't watched them, do yourself a comedy favor and watch Letterkenny and then Shoresy. Pitter Patter.

This is a good, fun movie. But they overestimate its importance by magnitudes. Is it even a top 5 sports movie all time? 8? 10? I like this movie a lot, but sheesh.

Did these movie dorks, ever see Mystery, Alaska? That was really good hockey movie... oh and Mavs in 6.

Newman supplied an all-time low-blow to the kids of divorce in this one. Hmmm, might be a decent category to add there, the "Catching Strays" cat. There's always some protected class of folks catching strays in the old ones. And a lot of old ideas and institutions catch strays in the newer movies. Plus there's some classic shots taken at other actors or networks or movie trilogies taken from within some other rewatchable movies. Catching Strays, kids, get on it.

One of the great politically incorrect scripts ever

About time...but you still need relevant movies

The podcast I listened to for this episode had a BetterHelp ad at the start. They're a really scummy, unethical company. Please don't take their ad money.

I watched this 1977 film before listen to podcast. Hansen bros is funny indeed,there a good jokes,but comon that not the best sport film ever looking with 2024 person eyes. Best sport films have jokes and drama and real sporting events going in films. Slap shots all films only jokes, fights,drinking and no real sport elements in it.Thats like anti sport film. They are winning final game and didnt even score a goal comon :)

The Goon is better

The gushing was a bit too much. Its an ok movie. No story. Nothinh happens really

Chris really need to start charge his laptop before they go on air. that cable annoys the shit out of me

Man bill doesn’t know films at all.

Second.

I love the rewatchables but they took way too many tangeants in the first 30 minutes of this videos that it's almost unwatchable. Stay on target a little.

Dumb

mavs in 6

First.

We're doing one of these, eh? I guess there's been too many actually Rewatchable movies lately, it was about time for a "Bill breaks the streak" episode that only eleven people listen to.

CR : " Like like like like its like like like like like like its like like like like like" " Paul Newman impression that sounds like his awful Al Pacino impression"

These guys are running out of movies. Took me three sittings to get through this movie, so fn' boring... Maybe doing too many of these they're starting to lose perspective... This movie sucks. "It still holds up." Yeah, in movie hell
