"They're gonna be best friends"
NO! They're brothers! Can't you see the resemblance?!
the ACTUAL championship game for the Titans; they won 27-0. they were DAMN good.
The “zero fun sir.” From petey always kills me 😂
Ya killin me petey!!! 😂
One of my many favorite lines “someone said football, so I came running. What’s going on everybody?”
Truth can be stranger than fiction! A decade after being paralyzed in a car accident (NOT during the game season, btw), Gerry was killed in another car accident at 27. Sheryl died pretty young, too: In her thirties, of an unknown heart condition. Coach Boone made it until his eighties! Gerry had Coach Yoast's help in winning 2 gold medals in the Paralympics.
I only just learned Sheryl died young. I am so sad. Apparently she had 3 sisters and Boone was upset they just wanted her in the movie, but her sisters said it was fine, and she had already passed, so she couldn't give an opinion.
Not too sure if it's real or not, I did some research on the team. And it seems that in real life, Gerry and Julius weren't truly best friends!
This movie has so many life lessons that today's world needs to see
Facts!
one of the big "happened different in real life" parts was how close the games were. Nobody even came close to beating the Titans that year.
And Gary played in the state championship game
And he did compete in the Paralympics.
Aaaand no fixed game, the Gettysburg scene never happened nor did the diner. Also, all of the other tests were already integrated
Well, that would make for a crappy movie, wouldn't it -- they could've made the movie without the 'based on' and it would still be authentic
Also the racism aspect of it was completely false, if there was racism on the team it was swifly dealt with and who ever didnt change was kicked off the team. Essentially the entire premise of the movie.
The first script was rated R, and getting passed up by multiple studios. Disney was willing to make on the condition it was downgraded it to PG-13. Good call. Wider audience, too.
That script was so heavily laced with the N and F words... Glad they cleaned it up so kids could see it!
@@m1ndymayhem thats what I was thinking. They probably said the N word a lot in the old script , because i realized they dont say it once in this version.
I'm not sure if that would've made it more impactful for historical accuracy, or lose the message entirely just for the shock value. Either way, it gets me emotional enough so I'm glad we got what we got. It doesn't need "end of Schindler's List" level of heaviness.
I'm still surprised they let "coon" and "monkey" fly though.
I’m glad they cleaned it up. I don’t even like the way they talk to each other in the actual film. If they hadn’t edited it, I probably wouldn’t have loved it as much. And it’s such an important move for everyone, of all ages, to see.
I wonder if they tried to put what was really thrown through Boone's window in the first cut. It was actually a toilet of some kind, not a brick. Boone said it haunted him for life that anyone could be that filled with hate.
This classic movie holds a special place in my heart because I knew all the real people the movie depicts. I was a senior at T.C. when those events happened. Some old-timers don’t like the movie because it takes great liberties with the facts, but most of us love it because it is great drama with an important lesson. Julius died five years ago after spending many years traveling around the country, giving inspirational talks on race relations.
Some truths and untruths: Alexandria was not a southern hick town but a cosmopolitan, metropolitan suburb of 110,000. T.C. had been integrated since 1965 and at the time of the events (1971) was 30% Black. Hammond (Yoast’s school) had just two Black students because it was in the rich end of town, and G.W., in the poor end, was 60% Black. Race was not the main issue at T.C.; school rivalry was the issue, due to the merging of the three schools. Boone was not new to the school. He had been assistant coach at T.C. for two years preceding the events, and he was my P.E. teacher in his first year, when I was a sophomore. I liked Boone a lot and had a good relationship with him even though I was not a football player (I was varsity cross-country and track).
As most people know, Bertier’s first car accident was not as shown. It actually occurred after the season, but the movie changed it for dramatic purposes. T.C.’s hardest game was not in the State Championship, but in the regular season, 21-16 versus Marshall. T.C. had 9 shutouts in 13 games. I saw all the regular season games. Oddly, the team’s best star was not in the movie; he was a running back who led the state in yards and touchdowns. Yoast was one of the best coaches in the state at the time, and there was widespread resentment over Boone’s selection as head coach. It is true that the training camp at Gettysburg transformed the team, and students were marveling over it when they came back. Boone was a hard-driving coach as depicted, but he had a great heart for the game and for his athletes. Singing among the Black athletes (including some basketball players) was a longtime tradition at T.C, usually done in the locker room. The players were allowed to wear their jerseys in school at any time, and they actually acted as a calming influence as depicted briefly in the film. I witnessed an incident where a player used moral suasion and school spirit to stop a fight that was starting.
My favorite true thing in the movie is an event I witnessed: Ron Bass’s arrival. It actually occurred at T.C. in the first week after training camp. I was with the cross-country team, warming up at the end of the track straightaway. At the other end, a fancy car drove up the ramp from the parking lot and onto the track. Everyone was amazed; cars weren’t supposed to do that. Ron (with very long hair) and a military officer in uniform (his father) got out of the car and talked to Boone, who had stopped practice and came over to them to see what was going on. Later we learned that he was a hippie quarterback from California. He was terrific, both a fine passer and a great runner. He played much more than was shown, and he always kept our opponents guessing.
Bertier was a great success in the wheelchair Olympics in the shot put and discus throw. My brother met him once in the gym in those later years, and they played ping pong. Bertier won, because he was excellent my brother says.
Loved hearing about your perspective/experiences and all the incredible background info. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you for sharing. Fantastic
Wow - love the background. Thank you for sharing!! Even though there was artistic license used, based on what you shared, the spirit of what happened was demonstrated well in the movie.
Movies like this are SO important. It was my first introduction as a kid to real-world racism, and that knowledge is life or death. And now people want to censor that from our kids.
Real world is a bit of a stretch...racism isn't defeated by a winning football record...but I see what ya saying
Meh. Its not that important. Im a nigga. With white kids now. They will never go through what i did. Ever... i have infiltrated the white race. With my black kids. 😉 they have the hereditary stuff.. but the have the white life. 🤷🏾♂️
@@josephangell9921So quick to be contrarian that you're lacking reading comprehension. You're putting words in their mouth. They said this movie was their first time seeing real racism as a child; it was their first time being introduced to the concept of hatred based on ethnicity.
As a portuguese immigrant in switzerland i watched that movie when i was like 12/13years old and it got me chills, great Movie🫡
My first Movie experience about racism was Mississippi Burning which hit me hard in 5th grade watching it
The world needs more of these Movies these Days
@@josephangell9921No one said it was...
I remember reading somewhere that Denzel wasn't sure he wanted to do this movie. He had already Malcom X in 1992 and then The Hurricane in 1998; both are movies based on real life people and he was concerned he might get typecast into playing historical figures. But I'm glad he did do this movie because he was exceptional in it.
That "Left side, strong side" scene gets me tearing up every damn time.
Ethan Suplee is so fun in this movie. He just shows up with a love for football looking to make friends. Boone instantly respects Lastik for it and never rides him like the others because he already gets it. Even going out of his way to help with his academic scores so he can get into college and prove he's more than just poor white trash, as opposed to the other players who choose to perpetuate their hate and racism for their teammates and are punished for it.
Genuinely made me laugh so hard at the end reading the end messages 🤣 "How fast do they expect us to readdd" LOL
Same here and I was also thinking dang I can't read that fast 😂
Agreed. That was hilarious.
"Your taxi had a siren" when Julius shows up at Gerry's house is my favorite line in the whole movie, and it cracks me up every single time. And it's such a throwaway joke that people always seem to miss it.
Everybody needs to sit and watch this movie…it’s still just as relevant as it was then.
I purposely made my children watch this movie. They still watch it as a favorite. ❤
Two things that i love about this movie. 1 boone grabs yost's daughter first when the brick incident happens and doesn't mention it. 2 is sunshine being completely off rhythm in the gym scene when they come together as a team again.
These are movies 🍿 Inspiring others to be good people and get rid of what harms 🙏🏽
This is one of those films back in the early 2000s that tackled issues that movies today consistently fumble because they’re being preachy & trying too hard. But this knocked it out of the park!
LMAOOOO How fast do they expect us to read?!? 🤣🤣🤣
literally just clicked this video and i’m already tearing up. this is me and my little brothers favorite movie and i don’t get to see him much anymore so it touched my heart 😢❤
Still an important movie that everyone should see to this day.
“well run yo a$$ away then” 😂
One of the best sports films if not the best sports film ever so many remarkable actors great story great music and fantastic cinematography 💯🔥
My football coach made us watch this in the movie theatre as a team before playoff game.
The speed reading at the end was hilarious 😂
I'm Brazilian, therefore I don't give a damn about american football. But I recognize quality when I see it, and this one is a MASTERPIECE on sports movies.
just got my food, timing couldnt be any better
same! sat down with a big plate and was like oh hell yes
Same! Door dash just showed up lol
That whole "defense on me" segment fires me up every damn time
Ayyyyy!!! You're reacting to the movie about my Alma Mater! And yup, it's a true story though dramatized. The car crash happened after high school. Petey, however, was an absolute gem and a bright spot in my high school career. Sadly, the original building has now been replaced (I was in the last graduating class) and renamed but Francis C. Hammond is still around! 😁
YOU WAS KILLING THAT SPEED READ!! 😂🔥
Foreal. It's hard to keep up with reading in your head but to read it all out loud and still only miss a few words at the end is pro-level 👏👏
This film is one of my favourites so true to life and has a great message to the world 🎉
My mother and I were supposed to be extras in this movie, but my mom got sick and as a minor at the time I could not go by myself.
This movie could have been called Pride and Prejudice too lol. I like that it not only touched on racial discrimination and stereotypes, but also concepts of masculinity with Sunshine, and gender roles with the little girls. Even the idea of dealing with your own pride and letting someone better step in and help when you need it, like coach Yoates and that other player did in the last game.
I read up on TC Williams HS Football stats after the movie. That State Championship, Gary Bertier finished the season with over 142 tackles and 42 sacks (guy was like JJ Watt out there). The team had like 4 players with 4 Interceptions on Defense (Including Gary Bertier), 18 Interceptions on Defense. Their toughest game was around week 4 against Marshall (21-16), The rest of the 7-8 games the team switched to "Iron Man" where everybody played on Offense and Defense, and the proceeded to Shut Out or Blowout every Opponent. So the filmmakers switched that moment to the State Championship Game because it woulda been boring to watch a 27-0 Blowout of Andrew Lewis HS at the end of the Movie
Good lord Gary
Like, imagine if Gary never had that damn accident. Whew!...
well this is a movie lol. every movie is fake, especially thje ones that say based on a tyrue story. they literally write a script for it lol
Damn Gary. 42 sacks?!?
@@mastixencounter I mean, no said otherwise. This person is just giving the actual stats to let Leo know what was fictional and what wasn't in regards to the games. Leo's already know that'a based on a true story, but some of it's fictionalized, so your comment wasn't necessary.
All "based on a true story" movies have a varying degree of stuff added to make the story more fitting of the big screen treatment. Some attempt to keep things more authentic than others. It is frightening how successful "The Blind Side" became with almost every bit of the script being lies that made the Touhy family look like saviors versus people taking advantage of a kid's talent.
Well almost all of the dramatic scenes were fabricated so I guess you can chack this one up as well
@@MrJholshouser41 At least the basic story of a suddenly integrated team coming together to win a title is true. The Blind Side painted Michael Oher like he had a learning disorder, and kept out ugly details like how the Tuohys made a conservatorship over a child they knew had athletic talent, and lied to him about efforts for legal adoption.
41:45 "Anyone can grow." Is a very important lesson, especially in today's era.
Julius on the right side of Gerry’s mom at his funeral….. Great movie.
This movie hits my emotions so hard every time I see it. The story, the actors, the heart felt moments and lessons they all learned, will always make this one of my favorite movies.
Thanks for another amazing reaction, Mr. Video.
One of my FAVORITE movies ever. Love this. Good shit
Ronnie Sunshine Bass is a great man, I've known him.foe 25+ years
7:16 - That guy lost a ton of weight and got fit. I was mind blown when I saw pictures of him, and then saw him on a popular UA-cam stream.
Run it up Herman! Leave no doubt! God this movie makes me wanna run thru walls😂😂
Especially the Yost one " WE BLITZ ALL NIGHT! THEY GET ACROSS THAT LINE IM TAKING EVERYONE OF YOU OUT!"
This movies has one of the best sound tracks
In real life they blew everybody out. No game was close.
1 game was close. 1 score game at the end. The rest, including the championship game, were complete blowouts. I just heard Garry had like 45 sacks and 150 tackles in 11 games. That's NUTS. They dominated.
They took a shit on of liberties with this. Barely resembles what really happened
You can check out the movie Gettysburg if you want a pretty good depiction of the battle. Just be ready for it to take up your whole day; that movie is loooong.
Maybe next we watch "we are Marshall" another great true football story
One thing I love about this film is while on the outside it covers/centres around the topic of racism, particularly in the United States, it also explores homophobia and sexism. It shows that even those who are judged and stereotyped by society such as the coach and the black players we see in the film, we also see the same characters behave the same way to other characters, such as making snap judgements based on Ronnie's appearence and 'needing to find out if he's gay', or the coach telling a sports mad little girl that she should play with dolls and not taking her seriously at all.
I was 11 yrs old and attended a couple Titan home games. We came across the Potomac River from Maryland. A lot of Boone's fans would come from North Carolina. And Titan Fever brought vehicles car plates and buses from Pennsylvania and West Virginia. And of course Washington D.C. Even local NFL Team the REDSKINS caught Titan fever and hit mid-season momentum and rode it all the way to SUPER BOWL VII. To be the least likely NFC opponent to face the undefeated AFC Miami Dolphins. I got autographs from NFL players at Titan games from SKINS Larry Brown, Charley Taylor, Jerry Smith, Richie Petibon, Jack Pardee and George Allen. Baltimore Colts Bubba Smith, Chuck Hinton and Mike Curtis. And news caster George Michael.
Awesome !!!!!
- Me on NCAA
- “we will be PERFECT , in every aspect of the game”
I am a RN and worked in a county hospital in the trauma ICU. I saw so many horrible things in that unit, but what scared me the most were the patients who had been in car accidents. Seeing the things that can happen to people involved in car accidents really traumatized me. Fixed dilated pupils in a 21 year old, or a beautiful young woman on vacation in the US from Brazil, or in a young mother whose baby girl was also killed, etc. Drunks that cause these tragedies yet walk away unscathed have my eternal rage. RIP to Gary.
I say this to everyone i watch that does this movoe because its just as important, do the Color of Friendship. So good
Saw this in the theaters with my parents when I was 9 years old. Had a nice, long conversation about it afterwards that I will never forget. This is without a doubt one of the greatest sports movies ever made. Even if it’s not 100% accurate to what really happened, it delivers the message of “better together” perfectly. This was my introduction to Denzel and he quickly became my favorite dramatic actor. Between this, Glory, and John Q., he’s the 🐐
I always love your reactions. Your youtube personality and sense of humor is so sweet!
Titans are my high school mascot. Best believe we'd use "the speech" on each other during halftimes. "You BLITZ! ALL! NIGHT!!!"
My man. Commented about this movie under your Rudy reaction. So hype you posted this!
the only move I've shed some tears in
"that's my brother"
4:47 i’m this far in and I’m wondering if we’re gonna get some tears and/or sobs from this awesome man watching this movie. I cry every time. Even when i was a kid i realized how important and emotional this movie was. Every American should be forced to watch this movie. Denzel is literally the best… and hot. Not gonna lie. I also find coach yoast hot too. Bill paxton maybe? I can’t remember his name. Love him. He can make me cry with a couple well spoken lines
Fun Facts: Cheryl will eventually grow up to be a cheerleader that needs to be saved in order to save the world and later she'll move on to star as a Country Singer Oh and also she's going to star in a high school movie where she's going to try to show an unpopular kid that she's not as perfect as he thinks she is. That one's called "I Love You Beth Cooper."
Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
Heros had such potential. Sucks they ran it into the ground.
@@JohnDoe-kh6mt Yup! That is what happens when you have no long term plan for the story (looking at you, Disney Star Wars Sequels!) to follow, and it becomes a convoluted mess. The writers strike in the middle of the series was just added fuel to the fire.
@@JohnDoe-kh6mt how did Heroes end anyway? I stopped watching after secret government group started capturing them.
Such a wonderful movie! I wish the whole world would come together like this! Love you Leo! With your million dollar smile!❤
Also, they really didn't have to work to hard on getting the players to get along. For the most part, everybody was cool with everything. There natural was a few that had issues due to the way they were raised. But in real life the biggest obstacle to overcome was with the parents, the community.
The dance they did at the beginning of the games was real. I'm not sure if they still do it, but my 1st wife graduated TC Willa's in 2004, and they were still doing that dance before each game. It was a tradition for many years
I highly recommend you watch Glory Road. It's about the university of Texas in El Paso, they became the first college to have an integrated basketball team with an all black starting lineup to win a national championship.
Shout out to T.C. Williams. Titans for life ❤💪🏾
That "Hey!" at 5:43 really screamed "I'm an old black Uncle and I will whip your ass if you don't act right!" 😅😅😅 I live! 🤣
Films like this are important. Well made ones like this, show us where we've been, what we've overcome and how far we have come as a nation. Which is why its so tragic to see what's happening now. There's no reason for so much hate.
Love this movie. Watched it tons of times and i always get emotional. Especially now as an adult. First saw this as a teenager in HS when i didnt appreciate things as much as i do now. Keep the great reactions coming Leo!!!!
Lastic" I'm eligible (hugs coach) Coach" glad to hear that son but I'm already married. Makes me laugh every time I watch this.
It's Mr. VIDEO is a real one for adding Remember The Titans to his watch list! I've loved this movie ever since I was a child. Did not understand why there was so much drama and commotion against these 2 races. I hadn't learned about the civil rights yet but it became that more emotional impactful when I did.
Sunshine the best football player in any movie
So glad you reacted to this this is my all time favorite movie I watch it atleast 3 times a year every year have since I was a kid and it still makes me tear up every single time
This movie is great and a definite must watch for anybody that wants to show their kids the importance of being human. The reason i say that is because it shows us the past in this country, but also what it takes to triumph in the face of adversity. The people that i will always be there for regardless are those that i had the privilege to play sports with. Participating in sports as a teenager allowed to understand the value of the human spirit, and if it wasnt for this movie i probably would have never wanted to play team sports. I used to skate as a child, but team sports didnt really interest me, even though my older brother was all district line backer. It was this movie that showed me how important it is to build comradery.
Great review man! “ they putting these boys in the ER” , hahaha 😂, great movie!
Regardless of what people say, we have come a long way since those days, and there are a lot of people trying to take us back. We are all on the same team, no matter the skin color. United, we stand. Divided, we fall.
When a movie perfectly suits a channel -- we get this reaction, and I don't think I've ever seen you so glued to every scene 👏👏👏
Got to see this movie a few times while in school, really hope they still show this film. History should never be forgotten
I used to ride past the TC WILLIAMS, school twice a week, when I had a truck route in the Northern Virginia area.
A lot of the real people has passed away since the past few years. Both Boone & Yoast, and Julius passed in 2019, Petey, passed a year prior and Louie, passed a few years before that. What’s really sad is that Sheryl Yoast, passed in 1996 from a heart condition
You gotta try Varsity Blues next, be a great follow up with a completely different tone.
i love this movie SO much!!! the scene with Julius interacting with the cop always makes me cry... just to see how scared he was initially and then the cop praised him, it always gets me emotional
I cant believe the coincidence-I just got my long, blonde hair cut to something almost exactly the same as Sunshine's haircut-and I thought, I should rewatch that movie, I feel like Sunshine, and here Leo is deliverying. Doing God's work here, Leo! Love the channel
My favourite moment in the whole movie is so small, most don't even catch it. At 33:38 when Petey is standing there and little Sheryl barks something at him, and he flinches like "oh shit, little coach is mad. Back up!". Such a minor moment, but so good!
Left side.... Strong side.... 🔥 🔥 Denzel movie wins again!! Also, Ethan Suplee has lost 300 lbs and looks like a WWE wrestler now. Mad respect! Please react to... "Your High-ness" or " o brother where art thou" yeee
This is my favorite movie of all time. From the acting to the story, it is perfection.
G’day from Australia 🇦🇺 🐨 🦘
I thought you were hollering at me 🤪
“Sheryl!!!” lol
Thank you for reacting to one of my favourite movies! Such a powerful, emotional and needed story!!!
Always enjoy your reactions! Keep on keeping it real 😊
This movie needs to be a requirement for all High School History classes. Freshman year or something. People understand there is still racism today, but they don't fully grasp how it affects people. This movie does a phenomenal job at showing how racism tears apart people and communities, but how trusting the soul of a person rather than their color is what is needed in all elements of life.
Cars aren’t dangerous, DRUNK DRIVERS ARE DANGEROUS‼️
This is one of the handful of movies I would call "perfect". I think you'd really like the movie Radio with Cuba Gooding Jr. too. Similar vibes.
Probably the movie I’ve seen the most in my life lol. Loved it 20 years ago when I first saw it & still love it today
When he makes the one dude call him daddy toward the start I was like "ok you're gonna have to perform or just cry and leave."
Those guys outscored their opponents 357-45 that year!
You have to watch "Radio" with Cuba Gooding Jr. It's another true story and it's amazing.
Love from France💪🏼
There were two movies that we always watched during rainy days of P.E. in Elementary School, remember the Titans and Radio. ❤
Cheryl and Nicky going to prom:
Nicky: Cheryl are you ready yet?!
Cheryl: Hold up I'm watching game film!
My dad graduated from TC Williams High School in 1972 (and my uncle in 73) and had been on the team so he knew many of the people the movie was about. From what he said, a lot of the fictionalization comes from some of the names and the timeline being heavily scewed. The sentiments were on point though according to him.
Fun fact, President Gerald Ford was in either the congress or senate a little before this time and his son attended TC Williams and was on the team and they had at leaat one team event at the Ford house that he recalled 😂 😂
6:26 I wouldn't have been able to speak if Denzel Washington walked up on me like that either.
First time watching your channel, great reaction!! this is one of my all-time favorite movies. When I was a kid my mom would let me rent it all the time from our local video store, so much that eventually the lady working told me to keep it. I still have that DVD to this day over 20 years later.
Look at you!!!! I've been watching you a few years. And look at those pearly whites!!!! Congrats man!!
Yessssss Leoooooooo!!!!! This one is my all time favorite sports movie and in my top 5 all time movies ever. So glad you are watching this one finally
That’s what I love about movie reactions, gets my mind off the crazy in this world !!
Such an AMAZING movie. It never fails to make me tear up. Also, you should look up the actor that played Lewis "Louie" Lastik (Ethan Suplee). This man went from half a planet to being ready to take on Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone in a double team arm wrestling competition. It's WILD.
