42: The true story of an American legend

This looks awesome.

Does anyone really care where I sent this from?

Buster Only tweeted something that I didn't catch in the trailer. They have Jackie doing a bat-flip, ala Dante Bichette and admiring his home run. Just doesn't feel right.

It looks more like a "F you" to the pitcher that probably threw at his head, than pimping a home run to me.

It did look out of place from what I've read about Jackie's personality, but it's tough to say without getting more of the context.

Somehow I missed this thread when I was searching and started another one. However I'm incredibly excited for this movie. Being a huge Harrison Ford fan, I feel he could do a great job as Branch Rickey. Might be the most excited I've been for a sports movie before.

Well I clicked on the thread because I was totally blanking on who #42 was. Then I figured I'm already here so I might as well comment.

Not too sure how anyone forgets who #42 is.

I agree the bat flip seems very out of character and I didn't like it. But it might have been out of context.

I thought it was a movie about Mariano Rivera at first.

And that's what's wrong with the world...

Awesome movie. If you like baseball whatsoever, do yourself a favor and go see it.

Very well done movie. I really enjoyed it. Although, I will say that with John C. McGinley's character, I didn't see him as Red Barber, but rather Dr. Cox pretending to be Red Barber.

I watched it Friday night and thought it was really good. Any baseball fan or sports fan should like it. I thought Harrison Ford was awesome as Branch Rickey.

Great...great movie.

Baseball fan or not, you need to go see this movie.

Cannot wait for it to come to Blu-Ray so I can own this masterpiece.

As others have said, it was a fantastic movie! Saw it with my wife last night. She didn't really want to see it, but she was glad she did afterwards.

This movie was awesome! Will be adding it to my Blu-Ray collection upon release.

I'm going to see it Tuesday, but I just wanted to say how funny the beginning of this thread was with all the talk of a terrible soundtrack and how Hollywood was going to bastardize the story/movie.

I'll be honest, I didn't go in with high expectations.

That's what happens when people chat about something they know nothing about. That's why I form my own opinions, I don't follow the crowd/sheep.

Wife is taking me to see it today... On Jackie Robinson Day... Very fitting...
