YOU SHOOT, YOU... Let's hope you'll be scoring on this quiz! When it comes to cinema, you'll find a host of different genres. There's action, adventure, romance, sci-fi, and who could forget about the dramas and comedies? While the latter two are the genres of thousands of films, there's a certain number of these films that are dedicated to sports. From basketball and hockey to baseball and soccer, can you name these famous sports movies from a one-line description?
While you might find a ton of professional sports in the United States, there are a few that are easily the most popular. In a 2013 Harris Poll, it was revealed that more Americans prefer football. This sport is followed by baseball, basketball, ice hockey, and tennis. The order of this list also reflects how these movies appear in the theater. It is infinitely easier to find movies on football, baseball, and basketball than it is to find movies on ice hockey and tennis. Popular football films feature the 2000 film Remember the Titans while A League of Their Own is a classic film for baseball lovers. No one can forget about the Michael Jordan/Bugs Bunny collaboration of Space Jam, and hockey was put on the map for younger kids with The Mighty Ducks.
There are hundreds of sports movies ready to test your talents, but can you score a touchdown, score a point, or hit a home run? Let's find out if you can name these famous sports films!
