Field of Dreams beats the Natural, but the natural is a great movie nonetheless

Best sports movies: 1. Field of Dreams (transcends sports); 2. Rudy; 3. Miracle

I love Field of Dreams, and Ray playing catch with his father makes me tear up every time.

For me, though, the original Rocky is my all-time favorite sports movie. It helps that I live about 90 minutes from Philadelphia, but what makes Rocky so awesome is that he lost in the end. The easy, predictable ending would have been for Rocky to win.

Bingo. It opened on Thanksgiving in '76 and I saw it three times that weekend.
