Busta Nut Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 ESPN 30 for 30 films There is about 100 of them now. Have saw about 70 i think. Anyone else into them? I have little interest in the majority of the sports covered other than American Football. However i have not disliked one of the films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamdunk Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I've seen a few, I liked the one about the seoul olympics 100 metre race, the dirty basketball team and the NHL enforcers ones. the knuckleball one was pretty good too. They're all pretty well done, although the one that Ice cube did about the Raiders and hip hop was a bit meh. Seen about 10 in total maybe, sometimes just cba putting them on, but have enjoed most I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Watched the Hillsborough one on youtube and it was superb, not sure you can watch it on there any more though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamdunk Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I quite like it in sports where a game can be won with skill, or where it can be turned into a fight, be it physical or mental. It's always interesting to see how the more skillful players cope/overcome those challenges. The basketball one is a great example, where Detroit basically bully Michael Jordan out of the game, next year he comes back a beast and blows everyone away.

Busta Nut Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 Your right about the Raiders and Hip Hop one.not great. Still enjoyed that one as a Raider and a HipHop fan, There is a load of them on the US netflix if anyone watches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJM77 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Only one I've seen was about the Colombian player who got shot after the WC, cracking documentary, may need to watch more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 The Two Escobars. Cracking right enough. Just watched "The U, part 2," Absolutely great, the grip the NCAA have one things is unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloop John B Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Both Miami ones are brilliant. The 2 Live Crew Music in the first one is brilliant, I enjoyed the SMU ones as well. You still get quite a few on youtube currently in the middle of watching Survive and advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Easy Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Once Brothers is the best one I have watched, about Vlade Divac and Drazen Petrovic being best bros in the Yugoslav basketball team, their moves to the US and how the breakup of Yugosalvia changed their friendship.

Paris Hilltoon Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I'm sure I saw one that was about a College basketball match fixing ring. Think it was a 30 for 30 anyway. Well worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted January 6, 2015 Author Share Posted January 6, 2015 Been rattling through a few of them. Great stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shengus Khan Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I watched quite a lot of them when I had ESPN a few years back and all of them were excellent. My favourite was one about 2 Yugoslav basketball playing friends (one from Croatia and one from Serbia) who fell out during the Balkan war and never spoke again. It was harrowing stuff.

K.T Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I think I watched a couple of those a wee while ago. Was there one about the World Series game against The A's and the Giants having to be postponed due to a massive earthquake? And one about some guy buying the New York Islanders despite having no money. Thoroughly enjoyed both of those! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_A Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 All the one's i've seen have been good, even the ones from sports I don't watch. Two Escobar's is the best one i've seen followed by The U and Broke. Haven't seen The U part 2 yet, can any one who's seen it confirm that they talk about this classic ?

Albertlegend Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Started firing through these as well! The catching hell one is brilliant! The mentality of the the crowd really is horrible! Couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor guy! The guy sitting next to him was pretty lucky cause he was having a right good og at catching it too!
