Disney would not make this movie today because of the underrepresentation of minorities.

If they did make it, at least two of the players would be gay (and one possibly trans).

OP and the board:

"Let's celebrate a great movie, a fantastic performance, and one of the high points in U.S. sports!"

Lololololololol

Merely lamenting the current state.

I love this movie. I remember 1980 and when they won. Thr film really does a good job capturing the overall context of the USA at the time.

When they have to do skate suicides after losing that exhibition game and Eruzione figures out what Herb means when he asks. "Who do you play for?", it is epic.


My work mentor, a senior VP, asked me to do Quality Moment for his quarterly full staff meeting.

At the time there was a lot of infighting and finger pointing internally between divisions.

I used that scene as the theme for my presentation, showing the full scene as the intro to my speech.

When it was finished, I drew parallels between our company and the hockey team’s situation.

At the end of the presentation I got a standing ovation. One of the coolest moments of my professional career so far.

Awesome movie.

1. 1980 USA Hockey Jersey is the most badass Olympic uniform our country has ever worn

2. Aerosmith’s Dream On during the credits is so damn awesome I can’t stand it
