Just seen the movie 3 about Dale and loved it! I'm a big fan and would like to know what the rest of you think about the movie.

When it makes it to DVD then I will. Cant smoke at the movies nor can I sit in those little seats that long so my take will be some time coming yet! How much of it did they up play over real life, or downplay?

Wasnt that on ESPN though, not in the theaters?

OK shows you how much I pay attention!! Hockey has my mind pretty much for the winter!!!
Being though its ESPN, I dont know if I want to see it. ESPN will glorify alot of it for its sports arena and not everything will be told about ole #3!! They'll key on his dreadful growing up years then over glorify his racing career. Not giving the inbetween years when he and his crew chief had most all the rules rewritten due to there ability to expliot the loop holes. Not to get anyone going and I did like him for some of the things he brought that boring sport, but that team brought a whole new meaning to cheating in which I would have to say ESPN would have made a little part of if at all!! Thats what got the team noticed and on the map, later they developed a more winning team due to the backing he got money wise from it!! Rubbing was re invented by #3 and ultimately was the cause of his death!

I think ESPN did a great job of showing his life within the 90mins. The movie wasn't as "Hollywood" as you might think. The movie does show his early years growing up from nothing and changing the way the sport is played. One of the great things about Dale was the he was a Man's Man. And you can't "over glorify" his racing carrer, he was the best. Some could say what Dale did was cheating but I belive he gave something to the sport that was missing, everybody seamed to enjoy crashs. Dale knew the risks of what he was doing and also knew that he needed something xtra to win. Dale never ment to hurt anybody he just wanted to chake some cages, and wanted to make sure he'd win. "The winner isn't allways the one with the fastest car, just the man that won't give up."

I thought it was pretty good. I think they were kinda rushed through the later parts of his life though... I think they should come out with a more full version and sell it. Id buy it. I sure do wish he was still around...but he definitly wont be forgotten

[OBI WAN]

Cool I'll give it and eye when it comes on again, if I catch it. I wondered if they would Hollywood alot of it since it is a sports channel and its good to know they didnt. I actually thought by now Hollywood would have jumped all over his life and surprised they didnt!
