    Just to cite an illustrative chain: OFFICE SPACE (1999, shot on 35mm and timed on film) looks better than MONEYBALL (2011, shot on 35mm and colored digitally) looks better than SEVERANCE (2022-2025, shot and colored digitally) even tho SEVERANCE is one of the best looking shows in the world

    Spring is in the air and so is baseball!!! To celebrate opening day I wrote about how MONEYBALL and SUGAR pushed baseball movies to stop worrying about championships and start embracing failure.

    I feel like bsky should know there's a whole group of Irish trans women who are obsessed with the movie Moneyball (2011). They make you watch it after a night out clubbing. I understand less about baseball everytime I watch it, but if a group of hot women tell me to do something, I do it. Simple as.

    Moneyball is an awesome evil movie that asks you to pretend the A’s weren’t sort of stacked: - Tejada (AL MVP) - Chavez (Gold Glove) - Zito (AL Cy Young) - Mulder (19-7) - Hudson (15-9) - Koch (44 saves)

    Hi I'm a sports data analyst in a film. I'm out of shape and I've never played the sport in my life. I'm socially awkward and lack belief in myself despite my revolutionary insights. I'm Jonah Hill in Moneyball it's the only film I've been in.

    I adore the movie Moneyball, and I understand why they did it, but the way they smushed stuff together to happen all at once bugs me. Also: the people in this thread complaining about LotR and GoT not being historically accurate is ridiculous. They are fantasy worlds!!!

    I'm no baseball maven, so take this for what it's worth, but to me Bad News Bears is a "real" baseball movie in that it revolves around the way the game is played. And as you say, Moneyball is more about the way it's bought and sold.

    Me: You how they cast Jonah Hill in Moneyball as an homage to George Costanza working for the Yankees. Since Peter Brandt never existed. They had a blank canvas to work with. Anyway, Brad Pitt once did this horror movie Cutting Class Producer: Wait are you serious Me: Yeah. He had feathered hair

    Moneyball (2011) viewed as a standalone story may be the best baseball movie ever made. Moneyball (2011) viewed as a way to build a team may be more destructive to the mindset of most fans than anything since at least the strike in 94.

    So it turns out YouTube has a rich vein of 'This didn't light anything on fire but its a completely serviceable movie' movies up for legal and free. Draft Day, which I think I last watched a decade ago, is a fun time! It wants to be Moneyball but doesn't land as hard. Still decent, though.

    Sports are kind of interesting playgrounds for statistics. I respect that about them. [Moneyball](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moneyball_(film)) is a movie (and book) about how an economist used statistics to change the way baseball teams recruit players. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. Although it could have gone into more detail about the nerdy stuff.
