Who's gonna go see Draft Day?

i did enjoy the shots of the stadiums whenever a team was introduced.
loved seeing Jim Brown, Bernie, Phil Taylor, Ward and Mack in all of it mostly.
anyone love the radio show montage near the beginning showing the browns leaving in 99?
also I loved the Joe Montana "John Candy" story in the 89 SB
Gardner wasnt as horrible/annoying as I had thought she would be
Denis Leary should be our assitant HC to Pettine
I also enjoyed seeing the bucks and badgers, and the game film scenes were cool when Costner breaks down Bo callahans negatives against pressure -

But I hate when these movie makers get things wrong. Leary says "In Dallas we win" and he shows a Super Bowl ring. They don't win in Dallas, anyone associated with their last Super Bowl is long retired. Leary, being a Boston guy should have at least insisted on his character being formerly associated with the Patriots, not the Cowboys.

well gip, Sonny Weaver and his son didnt coach here, and jr didnt fire his own dad cuz his mom wanted him to bla bla bla that was all "Hollywood Schmaltz" and I didnt care for them making up a fake history for the Browns just to have a dramatic aestethic for the story.
BUT i loved the editing, the scenes moving back and forth, with characters walking from one screen to another, that was pretty cool.
Im guessing you saw it Gip? -
I will be making comparisons to Noah in my rearview heads up...

Sure, there is some fiction...but you can only go so far.
But, yes, I did like the stadium scenes, and the characters walking into other characters who were a thousand miles away.

I thought it was an average movie. It didn't really build a real emotional attachment for me even though I'm a Browns fan.
Spoiler alert:
Biggest disappointment: They couldn't even show the Browns winning a single game the next season! Even in the movies we can't win!
Well, it was just a bit unrealistic:
SPOILER ALERT
No NFL team is going to trade 3 first round picks in a row. No NFL team is going to trade 3 second round picks for a #6 overall. And no team is going to trade back 3 first round picks to move up one slot.
I mean, just like Noah....there had to some forced, unreal drama in it to make it entertaining.
Maybe one day a team will actually allow like a Hard Knocks style documentary to be made about their Draft Day maneuverings....including letting someone in on what they really think of various players that are on the board.

Without doing a spoiler- it's the movies, not real life- I agree some of the stuff in the film would never, ever happen in real life. Incidentally for those that haven't seen it NFL.com said it was originally going to be the Jets as the team that wanted to trade up, and the Browns (of course) had the #1 overall. NY turned it down because of the fragile state of Sanchez.
PS, I thought the film was OK, not great- the flyovers of the stadiums were neat though.

(Spoilers!!!!!!). Loved the way it was shot/edited, and the story was real strong for the most part. Costner did an awesome job, Ellen did an awesome job, Leary was awesome! Puff daddy shouldn't of played an agent (wasn't believable at all), and why the hell was Terry Crews the father of Arian Foster? I can't take Crews seriously.... He's too goofy to play a role like that and he sucked in the NFL. This films downfall was the subpar side story with Jennifer Garner. Bish can't act her way out of a paper box, her dialogue/delivery was horrible, and it was the most cliche bullshit side story I've ever seen. They could of at least showed some cleavage as well.... But no, they didn't. And frodo didn't come off as funny, (but annoying). But aside from that, it's a good movie. Not an amazing movie, not a great movie, but a decent flick! And I loved seeing kosar, and Jim brown in it only for a minute. Too bad that slimy weasel Joe Banner found a way to sneak on set. Grade - B-

And on another note, the qb was Brian Hoyer, the star qb is Manziel, Mack is the linebacker the browns want, and Jake Matthews is the dude who's father used to play for the browns. It's a given, Joe Banner is obviously Kevin Coster too.

the movie is dropping in popularity like all the top 4 QBs and their rankings in the draft.
HA!
