I enjoyed the parts about Lawrence Taylor and the game's evolution. Doubt that will be in the movie.This movie might be good if done 15 years from now if Oher had a good career.

I could see watching it when it comes out on DVD, but no way I'd pay to go see it in theaters.

Sandra Bullock being cast in this movie tells me it is exactly the type of movie I do not want to see. I will however look into reading the book, as I haven't really given much consideration to it until I heard many favorable reviews.

Same here. Just can't see the film being as compelling as the book was.
TheFanatic

Me too. I am not a Bullock fan. But I like the story so at some point I will probably see it. Just not going out of my way to do so...

If you pay money to go see a movie that stars Sandra Bullock and Tim Mcgraw then you should be committed to a psych ward

A movie about Tom Cable?!? I'd see that on opening night!

Not to get away from the thread, but you are definitely not alone. She does not have the typical movie star look and has got the girl next door hotness going on. I told my wife that I wanted to see this movie and she said "of course you do, it is about football and has Sandra Bullock in it, your two favorite things."

So sorry but she is a long way away from being hot. Mildly attractive for a 40+ year old yes, hot no friggin way.

Maybe it is because I am 40 something that I find her hot.

I think you're missing the point of the film.

It's actually supposed to be a really nice movie.Why does it have to be done in 15 years? His life has already been a miracle. His success and the people that supported him should be commended now.I enjoyed the parts about Lawrence Taylor and the game's evolution. Doubt that will be in the movie.This movie might be good if done 15 years from now if Oher had a good career.

No, it's not you. SHe's hot. Always was, still is. I'd be interested to see a picture of pantherclub. Probably an overweight 35 year old guy who still talks about being captain of his high school football team.Maybe it is because I am 40 something that I find her hot.
There's no way the movie has as much about the development of the game of football as the book, but it seems like a good flick to take your significant other too. You can pass it off as a chick flick (it has sandra bullock after all) while still being able to watch at least SOME football.

If Sandra Bullock is in it, I'm not going to see it, because it's going to suck. Her track record is just about "perfect" in that regard.
and it supposedly doesnt have all the typical cliches of a sports movie

sandra bullock doesn't score very well on the under 30 demographicseems like there's a requirement about being in college when speed came out for guys to think she's hot.personally, there's a lot of better talent out there than her. and that voice? ugh.Bills_Fan11 said:Any 25yr old that says they'd kick her out of bed is a liar.warren663 said:snellman said:Maybe it is because I am 40 something that I find her hot.I'm right there with you!

That's what kills her for me. She is an attractive woman, but I can't stand her voice, and I hate how in almost every movie a point is made to have her snort while she laughs. That said, I'm 27, and no, I would not throw her out of my bed.sandra bullock doesn't score very well on the under 30 demographicseems like there's a requirement about being in college when speed came out for guys to think she's hot.Bills_Fan11 said:Any 25yr old that says they'd kick her out of bed is a liar.warren663 said:snellman said:Maybe it is because I am 40 something that I find her hot.

Saw it today. I thought it was really good and you have to admire everyone involved with giving Oher the chance that most kids in his situation don't usually get. If he were not an athlete it would not have happened though. There are a lot of kids who never even get a chance in life, great story for sure.
Edited to note Sandra is great and still gorgeous. Not sure why some folks are ragging on her in this thread. Not many women ever look as good as she does right now.

Definite date night movie with the missus. At least there's some football in it, and it seems more bearable than another rote romantic comedy.
My wife and I went to see it yesterday afternoon and she loved it. The opening of the movie showed the LT breaking Joe Theisman's leg play and talked about how LT changed the game and made left tackles the second most important position in football. After that the football was minimal to the movie, but I enjoyed it.
Quality movie about a quality young man. Regardless of how he fares over his career, its already been an awesome story.

Our baby daughter is in a nursery school with children whose parents are mostly entertainers, including several SAG members (geographic thing...we're in midtown west).
Two of them are voting for this years Oscars (err...they're doing the nominating part now I think) and said they would vote for The Blind Side as PotY and for Sandra Bullock as female lead.
You've been forewarned.
