"The Harder They Fall" with Humphrey Bogart.
"The Champion" with Kirk Douglas. I love the last fight, where he's been knocked down. He looks around the ring and sees all the people that loved him, that he alienated, that now hate him, and, just to spite 'em, he gets up and wins. Then goes back to the locker room and dies.

Also a marvelous short story by Ring Lardner. Midge Kelly in the short story is a real bastard.

Rocky 4 and the sound track, training scenes are the bomb.

Streets of Gold: Love the part where Wesley Snipes tries to punch Klaus Maria Brandauer - and misses repeatedly. The 'why can't I hit this guy?' look was his best acting outside of Blade 2.

Diggstown: The whole movie.

I like the cheese

Diggstown is a BAD movie. But I watch it every time it is on TV.

Same here - and my wife rolls her eyes every time.

Gladiator has to fall in this category, too. Not exactly Brian Dennehy's finest hour, but close!

Don't hit him on top of his head Brian! Yeah that's another one of those.

Hell Yeah!

Diggstown was called Midnight Sting over here, it didnt detract from its awesomeness

Its one of those films you always watch if its on TV (not often enough) The fact that you have it on Hard Disk, DVD and probably VHS in the loft makes no difference.
