It would obviously be at #11, tied with Jingle All The Way. Obviously. Kindergarten Cop is a pretty underrated movie by the way. It was in my regular rotation in my video store managing days. Hard to go wrong with a young Penelope Ann Miller. |

Ten ideas for future ESPN documentaries on defining sports events of the 2010s
1. King James - a chronicle of the defining athlete of the decade, LeBron James. Ranging from the fallout from his infamous "Decision" to announce his move to Miami, his resulting metamorphosis from hero to villain in the Heatles era, to his battles against the Warriors (and how Kevin Durant shifted the balance of power in the league) and finally to his Lakers move as he began to form his own superteam
2. The Big Fish - focusing on Mike Trout's dominance languishing in a little pond outside of the spotlight, without almost any national recognition
3. Brady's Bunch - an overview of the circumstances behind the Patriots' five Super Bowl trips in the decade. Obviously, there's ample material ranging from Deflategate to The Comeback to the end of an era
4. 108 Years - How the Chicago Cubs ended a century of failure
5. Alexander the Great - Alex Ovechkin's long-awaited Stanley Cup victory in 2018 over the brand new expansion team, the Vegas Golden Knights
6. National Shame - a summer of samba ends in trauma for Brazil with the infamous World Cup 2014 semifinal 7-1 defeat to Germany
7. Trashstros - the cheating scandal that rocked the nation and disgraced the good name of the Houston Astros
8. Two Shots of Texas - The Texas Rangers ultimately fail to win the World Series after reaching it in consecutive years, including twice being one strike away from winning it all in 2011
9. New Kids on the Block - the explosive debuts of QBs Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson, with the sovereignty of a new era at stake
10. Messi v Ronaldo - a rivalry that divides soccer's international fanbase
Not considered: college sports, golf, boxing

People will be so happy to have sports back that they won't bother booing those guys anymore.

Top 10 Akira Kurosawa movies.
01. Rashomon (1950)
02. Throne of Blood (1957)
03. Yojimbo (1961)
04. Seven Samurai (1954)
05. Ikiru (1952)
06. Ran (1985)
07. Sanjuro (1962)
08. The Bad Sleep Well (1960)
09. Kagemusha (1980)
10. Stray Dog (1949)
(edit)
Have to add a number 11. The Hidden Fortress (1958). It's the movie Lucas used the most to make Star Wars. In particular, the two bumbling peasants became R2D2 and C3PO.

I also considered "A Legion's Doom: how Seattle's would-be NFL dynasty ended one yard out" and "Fly Eagles Fly: Nick Foles Soars With The Birds" but all would be covered within the ten-part (or longer) Patriots series that is coming, one day.

Can an alternative title for the Eagles one be something like “The Biggest Dick: The Redemption of Nick Foles”? |
