Lords of Dogtown is the true story of a group of
young skateboarders from California who created a
worldwide skateboarding fad by skating in empty backyard swimming pools. Lords of Dogtown is a must-see movie for all
skateboarding fans or anyone who just wants to catch hottie
Heath Ledger wearing no shirt and ripped jeans.
Lords of Dogtown starts June 3, 2005.
Sports Movies - Herbie: Fully Loaded
Lindsay Lohan gets behind the wheel of a classic white Volkswagen Bug and races against the pros of
NASCAR in
Herbie: Fully Loaded. The only problem is that this Bug named Herbie has a mind of its own! This flick will be a hit with anyone who loves seeing Lindsay Lohan in racing suit or
wild racecar scenes.
Herbie: Fully Loaded starts June 24, 2005.
Sports Movies - Rebound
After a
college basketball coach (played by
Martin Lawrence) goes ballistic on an opposing team's
mascot, he's demoted to coaching a junior varsity team.
Rebound kinda looks like the basketball version of Bad News Bears. This storyline has been done about a zillion times before, but if you're a
hoops fanatic who needs a summer b-ball fix, Rebound could be the answer.
Rebound starts July 1, 2005.
Sports Movies - The Bad News Bears
Billy Bob Thorton plays a washed up minor league player who tries to coach a totally crappy team of
Little League misfits to a championship against their
hated rivals. If you've ever been on a
really bad team of any kind or like to root for the underdog, the
Bad News Bears is a must-see sports movie this summer.
The Bad News Bears starts July 22, 2005.
Sports Movies - Supercross
Risk everything, fear nothing. That's the tagline of
Supercross - a movie about
two brothers who compete in the
Las Vegas Motocross Championships, after the suspicious death of their dad. This flick stars
Mike Vogel, Aaron Carter and
One Tree Hill's Sophia Bush. Supercross is packed with tons of sick stunts and
motocross mayhem, making this one of the year's best action sports movies.
Supercross starts August 10, 2005.
