It depends on how you classify sports movie... movies with sports as a major theme that are great in my opinion include:
Comedy:
The Sandlot
Major League
Caddyshack
Slapshot

Drama:
Most of the Rocky series
Rudy
Remember the Titans
Hoosiers

Not great, but not terrible in my opinion:
Bull Durham
A League of their Own
Field of Dreams
Bad News Bears
Secretariat
Seabiscuit
The Mighty Ducks
Happy Gilmore
White Men Can't Jump

I'm a sucker for Musicals, Romance and Drama, but there wasn't drama so I voted for Romance :3 I liked Star Wars though. I can never watch a horror movie alone or even some episodes of PLL. I hug and hide with the person that is watching with me or if not the closest thing to me. I like comedies and action, though not as much as romance and drama.

I love romantic comedies.

Romances themselves tend to be boring. And straight comedies often run the risk of being completely stupid without a good plot.

I love the comedy of watching two people, often seemingly unlikely partners, slowly fall in love, while laughing along with it.


I like several of the genres, (though I tend to hate horror films because they are often predictable to me), but romantic comedies for the win!

Though my #1 favorite movie of all time is an excellent drama, The Shawshank Redemption, but my #2 film kind of matches my favorite Genre with Disney's Beauty and the Beast.

I like sci-fi, action and horror ... but have voted for sci-fi since it's the genre i like most.

And personally, i'd prefer a tv series than a movie sometimes. I like the fact that you get to know the characters better and see them evolving when you really get into a story (apart from never wanting the story to end if it's not stretched).

I'm particularly fond of JJ Abrams.

Some of my favourites (in my case tv series):
Lost
The 4400
Heroes
Fringe
Alcatraz
Revolution

My favorite wasn't exactly 'on' the list. I really like thrillers/suspense films. I'm also a big fan of experimental/art films. To be honest though, I love stupid comedies, sci-fi, some horror. And I'm obsessed with B-movies, movies so bad that they're good.

This is not a simple question at all. It depends on what mood one is in. I love documentaries and gritty dramas, but I don't always want to deal with real life. Horror movies are great fun - I have loved them since a very young age. And, of course, who doesn't love a good comedy? Not an easy choice at all. Also, I should add, if there were a choice for quirky independent that would probably be a favorite.

It was a nice thread, though. :)

Please tell me your not one of those people that keep watching a horrible movie saying it has to get better, I mean it cant be any worse. My dad is the worst at that, he will seriously watch a dud all the way through and his excuse is always well I thought it would get better.

Sci-Fi wins my vote for having Star Trek
 
There wasn't an "Everything but Horror" option so I went with Sci-Fi because Star Trek is best Sci-Fi movie/tv show ever made. Hmm, although there was that animation shorts of the Clone Wars and I did really enjoy those. Ehh, I watch Star Trek more so that's the tie-breaker. :cool:
