Just watched "Stick It"

Audra and I just finished watching "Stick It". It's a movie that really grows on you. Parts of it ring true to the wonderful world of gymnastics. Overall, I liked it, I'll give it a 9.8.

Maybe "The Chalk Bucket" and "Leotard Crazy" will get big enough to get some promo shots in the next gymnastics movie.

stick it

My 5 year old dtr LOVED the movie (although parts of it went right over her head) she wanted to watch way-way's(no idea how to spell her name) beam routine over and over. And all she wanted for christmas was an ipod - which we had to put Way-Way's beam song on!

I always talk about Ariana Berlins floor routine...Way-Ways beam routine is just like it. Ariana actually competes a floor routine like this for UCLA.

i've watched it ten times or more! Most of Wei Wei's beam routine was perfromed on a balance beam that was one foot wide, compared to the standard 4 inches.

That`s an interesting fact! I had no idea about that...
I really enjoy the movie also and got it on DVD for my birthday.

I am so annoyed. I have the movie lying in the house here. I bought it when I was visiting a friend on an American Army Base in Germany. Was really looking forward to see it, but my DVD won't take American DVD.

Some day I hope to see the movie.

That's stinks. After you watch it once normal, watch w/the commentary by the director, Missy(hailey), and Vanessa(Joanne). It's fascinating. They had to train for months in advance, six hours a day b/c they had to look like thier doubles.

What sucks about my DVD is, that I have the German version of it. So the whole movie is in German.
The bad thing is, that all the extras are missing from this DVD version! I really wanted to see those, and I`m therefore unable to watch the comments...

Stick it is my life! I'll watch it with my non gym friends and they always yell at me because I can recite every line with the people in the movie and I do. They hate that. I don't know why they would. lol.
