  • I was told the Academy Awards admitted to only watching 15 minutes of this film then turned it off.........

  • i got hoop dreams coach

  • both of these faggots never made it to the nba. they family thought they had mil tickets. but they was bums . fuck they dead loved ones

  • @rhinobullet003 and look at what you amounted to in life: a worthless youtube troll..your mother should've swallowed you

  • This movie would of been so better if they made it to the nba :(

  • @AndreMarceloBurgos25 Just goes to show that making into into the NBA has odds worse than that of the lottery.

  • CLASSIC

  • One of the better trailers going around

  • That one person with the dislike really has no soul

  • the commenter Reminds me with Hercules entrance :D

    "" there would be ... Hercules ""

  • WE GO PLAY HOOP is still 16-0 in my heart

  • I am proud of the Agee family: From the first daughter n law Ree Agee...RIP DAD BOO AGEE may your light continue to shine in CHA-CHA(Ashanti Agee) love you grandad and the world's best grandfather happy fathers day!!!!! 2011

  • This is a good film but i think terminator is better.

  • Greatest sports documentary of all time.

  • A masterpiece. Period.

  • Hoop Dreams is my favorite movie! I first saw this movie when it came on tv in the late 1990s. I then purchased the DVD to watch the special features. I never get tired of watching it. Hoop Dreams should have been nominated and awarded an Academy Award!

  • Arthur Agee looks alot like Tyler the Creator

  • they took that spike lee quote completely out of context.

  • I agree 100 percent!!! Lee's actual footage was hard core, as was the film. This trailer is weak and fails to capture the spirit of the film.

  • @megamule064 what was the quote in context

  • @sMac3322 spike lee was essentially going on how you should remember that you can be seen as just a commodity to teams and the only reason you are there is because "you can make their team win" or something like that which was not what was portrayed in the trailer.

  • This movie was a inspiration to millions. Check out a new Hoop Dreams google Wayne Washington

  • this is the greatest basketball film ever made.

  • I just got finished watching Hoop Dreams, and agree with Siskel 100% percent. The Academy are fucking retards for not nominating this film. It's a masterpiece.

  • it's sounds a bit too americia-dream to me..

  • @MrsPoker it's the death of the american dream rather than the cheeseball event you're referring to, watch the film, it's amazing.

  • Man I'm searchin another basketball movie I saw years ago but can't remember the name. Also looked for it on google without success.

    It was about some guys struggling, but a man comes and coaches them, then they start to progress, one of the guys was named Casey if I'm not mistaking, he was like a lil retarded, their coach then manages to make them start to really play well. The name of their team was Shooting stars. Could somebody find it please ? This movie was from the 90's. Thanks.

  • @Nhilzer

    i think its COACH CARTER that you are talking about.

    look for it, if it is the one you are looking for.

  • @binayatripathi nah coach carter was made in 2005 not 90's lol

  • @binayatripathi Thanks but I know that movie (coach carter) this isn't the one i'm looking for, the one i'm talkin about is far too old, from the 90's i think, coach carter was released in 2004.

  • @Nhilzer above the rim?

  • @Nhilzer Could it be Hoosiers? Gene Hackman is the coach, pretty good movie.

  • Everyday events in life that some take for granted are turned into moments of triumph and tradgedy in this fasicnating film. Two thumbs up for "Hoop Dreams".

  • Watch LeBron James More than a Game. its good

  • @weirdo1324 More Than A Game doesn't come close to this film.

  • all i ever dreamed about was pussy !!

  • Best basketball film ever, not He Got Game

  • the most realest films i have ever seen. One of the best out of the 90's if not the best.

  • @Tr0llsNeverDie Roger Ebert said it was THE best.

  • the hoop he dunks on at 0:20 is still there on Chicago Ave. next to this garden.

  • Dick Vitale is so full of unintentional comedy.

  • pretty amazing trailer for one of the best movies i've ever seen.

  • hoop dreams is in the national film registry for its cultural significance. go watch it.

  • wut ever happend2 these guys this is a great documentary

  • @Blackjesus3 both didnt make it to the nba. william though was given a chance in 2001 when he tried out for the wizards. it was said he did pretty well but near the end of the tryout he sprained his ankle and he gave up on basketball after that. He is married and has 3 kids I think. Arthur started a small business selling clothes and shoes under the name ' hoop dreams' He has 5 kids with as many different woman and it was said that one time he was sent to rehabilation because he was on drugs.

  • wow thx a lot man :)

  • @artery44 Thanks for the spoiler. Not everyone has seen this.

  • @psx2514 wat i told u was not from the film, it was wat happened after dat and if ur saying dat i ruined for u because i told u they didnt make it to the nba, its pretty obvious cause i never heard of an arthur agee or a william gates in the league

  • Yo 4 real thatz my nigga Bo right there look him up Arthur"Bo" Agee he tha King of Chi-Town He was my boss out in West Garfirleld

  • Comment removed

  • I've seen this about 30 times, if not more. It never gets old. One of the most fantastic stories ever told!

  • "people ask me ..will you remenber me if i make it"

    and i tell them

    "will you remenber me if i dont "

  • @10roblesjose when i heard that line i was like shit, this kid got soul

  • weird i always pictured pingatore as overweight while reading the book.

  • I know steve quite well- awesome man!

  • this is without a doubt the greatest film ever made, in any genre.

  • In all seriousness... Is this movie good? Worth buying? I want to hear from someone who actually saw this. Please give me like a rating or a grading scale like was it a A, B, C, D, or F? You can throw in the +'s or -'s in there if needed.... thank you...

  • The movie is really good. you should check it out on hulu first if you don't want to buy it without seeing it first.

  • @lastofadyingbreed

    It's a great documentary. One of the best imo.

  • A+ a fantastic movie i really really enjoyed it

  • I'm going to watch this movie tonight, but I just finished reading the book a bit ago. AWESOME book, can't wait to check out the movie.

  • we are reading the book in school

  • Greatest movie ever.

  • which players made the big leauges?

  • neither.

  • Its amazing how humble and determined the players are to get to the NBA and when they get there they turn into total jackasses that think there above the game

    The passion at the college ranks is real, at the nba level its about the pay cheque for alot of guys

  • If your into sports, not only basketball, just if your into sports, watch this movie.

    One of the best documentaries ever.

    Both these players were amazing, and you sure as hell thought they were going pro, but nope.

    Because they didn't have the grades and Gates blew out his knee.

  • at the end it said something about one of them getting an offer from the bull in like 95 but he turned it down.

  • I heard it was the Wizards?

    And he was satisfied with the thought of knowning he coulda made the NBA so that was good enough for him.

  • This movie is a must see for all and one of my favorite movies of all times

  • I go to Saint Josephs! Yay!!!

  • just bought the DVD and have finished watching it...one of the best films i've ever seen
