Please stop posting that trailer , it's painfull enough just knowing it's still out there.

If we all ignore it , maybe the whole thing will just go away.
 
AAAaarrrrrgg!

The funny thing is the black diamond character is the "professional" actress and I use "professional" verry looooosely! I can't say Jennifer is any better, just not over acting as much.

They used to say straight to DVD... I think it is straight to the deepest darkest spot on youtube's server.

...but I'm not judging yet!!!??? :frown::frown::frown:
 
Why do people insist on making movies about pool. It is the most boring subject for a movie. What we need is to bring back what made pool, the woofing, gambling, drama of serious backroom games. Somebody needs to get all those big players you find in the action room at dcc and other places with their backers stick them in a room and get tlc or discovery to do a reality show on it. Or follow them around in their travels say you follow svb to one of the big tournament and right afterwards you see him square up with someone for 25k. It would be interesting to see what goes on day to day for someone who makes a living at pool.

Excellent idea! I liken this to a docu-flick like the excellent wrestling one that came out a number of years ago called "Beyond The Mat". The movie transcended professional wrestling and really did an outstanding job delving into the minds of the people behind the silly characters.

I'd love to see the industry give up the ghost of The Color of Money and do something like this. There are so many great stories and interesting characters in this industry and a good documentary could really show all the angles past and present.

Ever heard the expression 'You can't polish a turd'??

Jeanette Lee couldn't save this train wreck of a movie any more than you or I could save any unsuspecting fool from clicking on that link you posted and watching the trailer.

No matter how you slice it, this move looks like some 6th grader's idea of what to do with mommy and daddy's digital camcorder.

The story itself looks laughable. So awful that 'acting' or 'production value' is a moot point. You could have A list actors and Martin Scorcese direct this thing and the bottom line is, the premise and the dialogue is still horrific.
