Anyone going to see the Secretariat movie this weekend?

[Reload]

I liked Seabiscuit a lot - wonder how this one will stack up.

[fsugolf]

going to see wall street tonight, and maybe double dip the movies if we go to an early enough one

[fsugolf]

probably double dip wall street and the social network

[dugbug15]

i haven't been to a movie since jaws.not likely to see secretariat movie either.a funny story follows; i and two buddies actually attended the Belmont stakes which secretariat won by 22 lengths.my friend dave,camera in hand, quickly rushed to the winners circle to snap a few pictures.fighting his way through the massive crowd of fans in doing so,with marginal success.when he rejoined us,we decided to go to grassy park in the rear of the belmont grounds where we saw the exit path from the track to the stables. lo and behold,here comes secretariat and her connections strolling by.there was nobody at the fence,by the path except us 3 and 4 more people. dave was all set to get his pictures,when,you guessed it,he had no film left.goes to show you,yet another way to lose at the track.

there has been a run on horse racing movies the last few years.

[Pharieswheel]

I've been betting horses for 40 years, I've seen great horse stories, yes Secretariat was a great horse, but he met inferior fields in his day. How about my favorite Kelso, He was 5-time horse of the year in the 50's won 63 races and made almost $2 million in his life. Incredible in his day. You'll never see a grade 1 thoroughbred win 63 races ever.

[jbrent95]

I liked the books though.

[StraitShooter]

john malkovich seems kinda stupid fake with that never seen before speech

I liked him as cyrus da virus

[zebra58]

i'll wait for dvd,, just saw "stablemates" mickey rooney 1940's,

[big0mar]

Who the fukk watches movies on the weekend?

[Robber]

no, sounds like a waste of time

[wtt0315]

i saw it last weekend on sneak preview. one of best movies of year. It was hands down best horse racing movie. My girlfriend and son loved it also.

I'm sure one on Zenyatta will be coming eventually - could be one of the best ones.

[flyingillini]

It was a great movie. I went and saw the sneak preview of it last week. You should go Check it out if you are into racing.

[Willie Bee]

Depends. Are there going to be any Diane Lane nude scenes?

[ronjon619]

I'm sure one on Zenyatta will be coming eventually - could be one of the best ones.

I think that's why the release date is now. Breeders Cup in a few weeks and she is still unbeaten, baseball playoffs and football is in full gear. Every couch potato sports nut is gearing down near the TV for hours at a time. These fu(king movie companies don't miss a beat when it comes to marketing.

[bradthebloke]

is that Diane Lane in it? man, she got old

are you being facetious,, (i hope)

Yeah - some horse racing 'fever' going right now, ronjon!

[Reno Paul]

I'll probably wait for DVD like just about all movies.

[unusialsusp5]

he had 1 good race against a weak field. few other decent races. buckpasser was better, kelso was 5 time horse of the year in a row. zenyatta currently better story. movie will be full of things that never happened. stay away.

[robmpink]

no, will watch it on dvd.

[gravy]

I heard that some of this film was shot at Keeneland as Belmont Park wouldnt let them shoot the film there

Dude, you have no idea what you are talking about.
You know it, and I definitely know it.
Tell that to someone that was not there.
I was.

[marcoloco]

[thezbar]

Planning on seeing it early next week. I was in a race and sports book in Vegas the day he won the Belmont.

[hostile takeover]

uhhhhhhhh. No horse movies for me this weekend.

[Nismo]

Will wait till DVD. But it does look good. Be sure to post a review if you go see it.

[BarkingToad]

Not interested. While Secretariat was before my time, I can't get hyped up about a horse with 5 losses as best ever. I kind of agree with Prairieswheel and unusualsusp5 assessment about Secretariat looking at the history books. While there's horseplayers that know more than I do, Secretariat seems more on par with Holy Bull. Great horses, but not best ever types. A healthy Tiznow was probably as good as either one.

I agree with Reload, a movie about Zenyatta, that's different!

[Team Ramrod]

horse movies does nothing for me

[big joe 1212]

Waiting for DVD

WTF?

[Smoke]

Diane Lane is one hot ass MILF

I still remember the scene from "unfaithful" where she get's banged in the hallway\

She needs to do more sex scenes
