Title: Re: TDMMC Movie Madness, Round 1 - Raging Bull vs Days of Thunder Post by: Dave Gray on March 08, 2013, 10:23:07 am This will be my first blasphemous choice. I love Days of Thunder, despite it being half of the movie Raging Bull is. Raging Bull is a good flick, but very slow.
Title: Re: TDMMC Movie Madness, Round 1 - Raging Bull vs Days of Thunder Post by: Sunstroke on March 08, 2013, 10:34:58 am ^^^ Yep...blasphemy. Would you vote the same way if this were a WWJV piece? Title: Re: TDMMC Movie Madness, Round 1 - Raging Bull vs Days of Thunder Post by: Dave Gray on March 08, 2013, 10:44:41 am Sure....I mean, I can only judge on the things I enjoy. I have a guilty pleasure about Days of Thunder, but when it's on, I'm like "Fuck yes...rubbin' is racin'." Now, I know that Raging Bull is the better made, deeper movie with more meat to it. But I didn't connect with it so much.

Title: Re: TDMMC Movie Madness, Round 1 - Raging Bull vs Days of Thunder Post by: Brian Fein on March 08, 2013, 10:52:23 am I really want to make an informed decision here, and I feel like I'm going to wait till the last possible moment to vote on this one so I can actually watch both of these movies and make a choice. I feel like I want to vote Days of Thunder, but I also feel like Raging Bull is a classic. I am torn.

Title: Re: TDMMC Movie Madness, Round 1 - Raging Bull vs Days of Thunder Post by: Pappy13 on March 08, 2013, 04:34:39 pm Gotta feeling that Days of Thunder is a 13th seed. >:D
Robert Duvall needs to be given credit too. He's the best one in the movie. Title: Re: TDMMC Movie Madness, Round 1 - Raging Bull vs Days of Thunder Post by: BigDaddyFin on March 12, 2013, 11:07:20 pm Raging Bull. Days of Thunder was great in its own way but there are many other movies that better capture the spirit of NASCAR.
