I'd have to go with Happy Gilmore, the scene where Bob Barker beats up Adam Sandler never gets old.

From a golf perspective, Happy Gilmore is terrible from a comedy perspective its great.

Follow the Sun, another great call.

DSP is older (1980s) and was a B movie, so I doubt its even available on DVD, but if you like Tin Cup, you'll love DSP. Randy Quaid was the lead and if memory serves he is a pretty formidable player. The thing I hated about Tin Cup was Costner's swing was brutal as was Matt Damon's in Bagger Vance. Whomever played Bobby Jones in Bagger Vance however had a fantastic swing.

Tin Cup. I have it ripped to my ipod and have the file on my desktop, so I watch different parts of it frequently, and the whole thing if I have some time to kill.

if you haven't seen The Greatest Game Ever Played, you need to take a look. Very well done. I do love Tin Cup myself and Bagger Vance is great if you're as obsessed with golf as I am. Caddyshack and Happy Gilmore are great, but just doesn't see as golfy to me.

Is "The Foursome" thought of as a "golf" movie or just a movie with golf in it?

It would definitely have to be Happy Gilmore.

I used to like The Legend of Bagger Vance when I first watched it a few years ago when it came out, but upon seing it again fairly recently, I realized it was quite terrible overall, with a few decent moments in it.

Legend of Bagger Vance
The Tiger Woods story (when it comes out)

Caddyshack was funny, the scene of Rodney dancing on the golf course is a classic. So was when Ted Knight tells that caddy who is trying to get him to pay for college, "The world needs ditch diggers too." I tell that to my students when they fail a test (as a joke).

Somehow I accidentally posted this to the wrong thread...but,

It's unfortunate the time period The Greatest Game Ever Played is set in is 1913, because Shia LeBeouf's semi-love interest was pretty hot. And of course since she was wearing clothing of that period, she's covered from neck to toe. If there was a way they could have made the movie current (yes, I know it was based on a true story), where she's sporting the short shorts and skinny tanktop, I would be all for it.

That being said, Cindy Morgan was smokin' in Caddyshack.
