Ugh.. if the cannot even make a decent 30 second trailer, can you imagin how bad the movie is gonna suck..... this trailer was awful, just awful...
 
Hoping for the best here.

Found the trailer a bit shocking with my good friend Jennifer B having a black eye. Wait, that was probably her stunt double who took the punch. Yeah, now I've figured it out.

Seriously, though, good luck to all who are associated with this film. Looking forward to seeing the film, and, of course, reading the reviews.

For making a movie this bad,they all deserved a black eye.
 
As show of support, who plans to attend the premiere tonight?

Unfortunately we cannot attend. I wonder if my wife and I made the final cut. We are both in the trailer.

For those that worked on the movie I think the premier is a cool thing.
 
Wow, that's a total shame.

Not sure what is better , no movies about pool or really really bad movies about pool.

What a conundrum. ;)

Did anyone really expect it to be a blockbuster movie? It is what it is, and it just might get a few people interested in playing league pool IF they happen to see it. That would not be so bad for the industry.

So it's your opinion that the concept never had a chance to be a blockbuster?
 
I thought the trailer looked decent. I would watch at least once just to check it out. It is, however, unfortunate that there will never be a pool movie made that is not about "hustling."
 
embarrasing to watch. If the trailer is this hokey the movie must be beyond brutal.Makes pool hall junkies look like an academy award winner.

There was a great film that was not about Hustling. I would say the best pool movie ever and the reason it was the best was the script you have to have a great script first..
And the movie was the Hustler 1961 actually it was a love story about a pool player. Think back to the last scene when fast Eddie reveals his feelings for Sarah to Bert Gordon. Eddie and Sarah were two troubled soles who found each other and of all places a bus depot.

There was another Pool Movie being shot.
Venom was in it and Joey A too.

I can't remember the name but maybe Joey will see this.
The trailer of that one looked great and I was anxiously awaiting the release.

The actors in 9 Ball, are amateurs. Gotta give them and the producer credit for trying.

In all honestly, when the DVD is available, I doubt I'd pay more than 10 dollars to get it.

Blue Hog Ridr the other movie you are thinking of is "Ride The Nine".
 
Not until you make amends with the people at The New Green Room in dundalk who so graciously supported the movie in the beginnings only to be shit on.

what........and why do I deserve your rude ass comment? JO

Great movie for sure, but .....

Eddie did hustle a couple of guys and when he beat them, they broke his thumbs. The image of the pool gambler being beaten by those he beats at the table does little for pool's image. Eddie also happily participated in the hustle of a wealthy three cushion player in Louisvile. Finally, Eddie's stakehorse, left out of some winning action in the film's final scene, threatened him with violence. The Hustler, by my account, was not exactly a testament to the integrity of pool players or those who travel in their circles.
 
I remembered some people talking about this movie on facebook and they were mainly female. Now I see this trailer and wonder if this might actually be a chick flick. Maybe the Thelma and Louise of pool movies?
