The Real Buffalo Joe Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) I know the movie is like 13 years old, and wasn't recieved as that great by many, but I have a bunch of friends who are Bills fans, who haven't seen it, some haven't even heard of it. Sorry this isn't a doomed thread. Edited August 29, 2014 by The Real Buffalo Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 For a Bills related, hey look it's on TV, movie, it's pretty decent. But it never was meant to win an Oscar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodbuster Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 It's terrible, but it's about the Bills. So it's a must see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HankBulloughMellencamp Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Courtesy of Big Lots, I own it on DVD, but have yet to be so down in the doldrums about the Bills that I have made time to take the plastic off and watch it. Which reminds me, I need to go put some Orville Redenbacher’s in the micro and give this baby a whirl. I mean, Jon Voight is the Bills HC… that fact alone sounds like cinematic gold.

flomoe Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 If I hadn't seen it I might have given it 2 stars instead of 1. I cannot believe that the NFL somehow agreed to even let this movie make it to production. It could possibly be the worst movie ever portraying a team from an actual sport. Major League II was bad but not even close to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought it at Big Lots too. Also has a cameo by (then QB) Doug Flutie and Van Miller. I did notice though that they used some real game film, with Andre in the background, yet they also had a fictional player who was #83. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiostyle Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've never seen this or even knew it existed. Could someone provide a synopsis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've never seen this or even knew it existed. Could someone provide a synopsis? Doug Flutie and the team make the playoffs, so he takes the whole offense out to a celebration dinner. They all get food poisoning so the Second String, mostly practice squad tackling dummies have to come in. The coach, a mean guy named Chuck Dicktor (totally not Chuck Dickerson) had some past issues with the now starting QB, who's getting old but wins based on trick plays that make the statue of liberty play look professional. Long story short, they line up to win the Super Bowl by kicking a FG in reference to Wide Right, and then it's a fake, and they win by throwing the ball backwards a bunch of time to win (in reference to the Music City Tragedy). So basically, even when I want to pretend my team is winning the Super Bowl, I can't enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 The movie came out when when I was 10 and I thought it was awesome, and had great memories of it. I wish I would have kept it that way. Bought it at Big Lots for two bucks and had nothing to do on a Thursday night and rewatched it now at 24, and realized how bad it really was.

Speedy G Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 This movie keeps me pumped. I watch it every year before the season starts... I mean come on man....it's about the Bills 🏈 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean come on man....it's about the Bills I do the same thing with the '93 comeback to get me pumped. As bad as it was, I'm surprised most of the fanbase hasn't seen it anyway, just because it is about the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 not on netflix. i heard of it for years but sounds like a bad lifetime movie. Pretty much. Standard 1-star TV movie, but I gave it 2 stars because it was the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
