Movies and TV shows.....
 

i would like to know some of your all time favorite horse related movies or shows....anything is fine, from mr. ed to seabiquit!

old school question... does anyone remember a tv show called the "american horseman"?
it was on in the late 60's or 70's. sunday mornings about 6:00am...

thanks

mine is the fresh prince of bel air... when they go to the race track, and carltons favorite horse is going to be put down, so they buy it and bring it home, uncle phil finds it in the living room and gets very upset.

The odd couple when Oscar is getting tips from a midget groom that is too short to be a jockey is an absolute classic. That is the episode where my signature came from.

This might be the first thing you have said that has been absolutely hilarious...PROPS!!

i was going to mention this one richard dreyfus movie in case no one on a horse racing website has ever heard of it.

did you see that episode ?

this is the one that started my love of horses...

Easy Money. From when they go to the bar with the tip to when "Nicky" pulls the rider off the sulky... Classic.

When Things Were Rotten

for me its The Black Stallion.

I liked The Sting with their OTB setup. Past posting, using the Western Union line. Gondorph was tremendous.;)

McHale's Navy PT 109 (1964) when their horse is smuggled into the track under Capt. Leadbottom's nose.

The race horse on the boat is classic!!

Tim Conway was about as funny a dufus as TV ever had....

Broadway Bill

remembered it right away!:D

I liked the Phar Lap movie. and the Racing Stripes cartoon movie!!

I think I watched Phar Lap at least once a week as a kid. Man From Snowy River was a favorite too. :)

I also read every single Saddle Club book, which I saw they made into an awful TV show.

You're just upset that the movie isn't titled; The Man From Snowy Woods.

Oh fer the love a mike already.



I guess I'll have to handle this myself.

The next person posting in this ABYSMAL mess of a thread is in big trouble.....BIG trouble.

While that may be true;shut up.

I don't count.

truer words........















come on, that was like martin setting up lewis!

Or with One minute to post.. the fellow @ the window says (to the teller).... ""I would like to bet # 2.oo to win, $2.00 to place, and $2.00 to show on the 4""... and the teller says ."" you can just say $2.00 across the board on the 4""...and as they are going to post ..he says... "" Ohhhhh you can do that on any horse "" and Nicky yanks the guy from the window :zz:

The movie with Kurt Russell.... "" Big Trouble in Little China "" ??? :cool:

The Godfather:cool:

Pie-O-My in the Sopranos

:mad:

^^^ Has a black waist ribbon in Ju Phoo-Ee.

The stupidest, but funny if you like stupid movies, was Hot to Trot.
Some funny lines and visuals in that one, Dabney Coleman, Bob Goldthwait.

Also liked Symapatico, Nick Nolte, Jeff Bridges, been showing that on mystery channel or one of those lately.

And Lucky Number Slevin, not mainly about horse racing but starts out with a horse race.

That it?






Any more bizarre nominations?

Does Barney count?

Just posting anything counts.







Jesus.

Morte- is porn allowed on this thread?

If so, I submit that famous porno movie "Blazing Zippers" :tro:

Oh boy.




Actually...it's a fine thread for smut.

naked horses

friggin awesome movie!!! Saw it on HBO a few months back and loved it!

Yeah, I really liked it, not a usual Bruce Willis fan but he was good in that one, loved the twists and turns.


I don't think SeaBisquit has been mentioned, with Toby Maguire, that one was good.

I loved Phar Lap, but it was always so sad in the end, he always dies in that gut wrenching scene.
