neutral · AI labelView post →That's one thing I remember vividly about the movie Mystery, Alaska doing well. The locals didn't wear perfectly matched sets of toque, scarf, mittens like you get in a gift set. It looked like they were grabbing their winter accessories out of a pile everyone in the family had access to.

neutral · AI labelView post →Name an underrated sports movie, I submit “Mystery, Alaska.”
positive · AI labelView post →Everyone loves the "best baseball movies" debate, but my real hot take is that the best hockey movie of all time is not Slap Shot or Miracle or Youngblood, but Mystery, Alaska. And it's not close.
positive · AI labelView post →Mystery, Alaska, btw, is a banger of a movie. It's dirty, funny, occasionally dumb, and has some absolute great throwaway lines. Plus, TREE, who my friend BJ apparently knows. clip.cafe/mystery-alas...
positive · AI labelView post →lol If you want to watch more drama about hockey that doesn’t show much hockey, I recommend the movie Mystery, Alaska. We really enjoyed it!
positive · AI labelView post →🧵 It's day 3 of our "Scott Grimes" themed Advent Calendar. And for today I'm highlighting project that I know Scott really enjoyed working on. And that is the 1999 film Mystery Alaska. Mystery Alaska is a,movie about a small town in Alaska that is obsessed with their Saturday Hockey games. 1/3

neutral · AI labelView post →My partner got me into hockey, and we go to several ducks games a year now. But yes, Slap Shot is the best hockey movie. Followed by Mystery Alaska.
positive · AI labelView post →In the movie Mystery, Alaska, the local hockey team tried to chill the visiting NY Rangers (outdoor rink) by getting the anthem singer to add the Canadian anthem to pregame. Good thing, too, since the movie was filmed in Canmore, AB. The anthem singer was Little Richard.
neutral · AI labelView post →If you’ve seen the movie Mystery, Alaska you know what I’m looking for tonight. The kind of grit and teamwork you’d expect from an NHL team beating the shit out of random Alaskans
neutral · AI labelView post →Mystery, Alaska. Didn't really like the movie all that much but our friends were big hockey fans and it sure beat pre-calc at 8 am.
negative · AI labelView post →When I was 14 I bought a ticket to see Mystery Alaska and then I walked into the cinema by myself and watched this movie instead. Scared the shit out of me. I had nightmares about it for a long time afterwards.

positive · AI labelView post →Mystery, Alaska is in my top 5. Not sure Uncut Gems makes the cut. Just occurred to me, was Kevin Garnett in that movie just because of his last name?

neutral · AI labelView post →Oh shit so it was basically that movie Mystery, Alaska
neutral · AI labelView post →I have such a hard time picking movies to watch. Last night, after >30 minutes of scrolling through every movie on every app, my father opts for Mystery, Alaska, because it was shot in the town I grew up in and we were extras for the big game. Wanted to see if we could spot anyone we knew in the bg.
neutral · AI labelView post →Combine two movie titles to make a new film: Austin Powers: International Man Of Mystery, Alaska Coincidentally, both films have Mike Myers in them and are both directed by Jay Roach.
neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah, I was going to ask if it was set in Mystic, Connecticut, hence the name. Unlike Mystery, Alaska, it's a real place! But a marine biologist trying to save an ailing seal sounds like my kind of movie. I'd not heard of this one, so thanks for the tip.
