Dodgeball

 

Probably one of the best films about sport ever made. Dodgeball has to explain the rules of a sport, and does so. So the audience can follow There is no fat on this film either. Comes in 1 hour and a half

It's Bill Daughtree!!!!!!!  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Root

One of the things that dates this film is Alan Tudyk playing a pirate- a nod to the Pirates of the Carribean films, which are less fondly remembered now

There are a lot of Xer references, Hasselhoff being big in Germany, Chuck Norris and even Captain Kirk himself

Like Kingpin, this film shows how rich America is, a whole stadium for an obscure sport
