Best. Movie. Ever.

Okay, after I wrote  about how I like to watch arm wresting on ESPN 2 (see comment section on Just Decided post) I started thinking about one of the best movies ever.  Yes, I said it and yes, you can quote me.  Over The Top is one of the best movies EVER.  Ever people, E-ver.  Watch the trailer and remember...this movie is about arm wresting...arm wrestling people.  Arm. Wresting.  The premise and the entire movie is hilarious, although I don't think it is intended to be a comedy, which makes it all the better.  I mean there is a scene (unfortunately not in the trailer) where he is "training" while driving the truck...it's pee in your pants funny.  If you have never watched it, you can try the local video store to rent it, but don't be surprised if they don't carry it.  While it is awesome, it's not exactly hailed as a cinematic jewel by critics...but they are critics...they are supposed to be critical.  Buy it blindly...trust me, it's worth the money.  One thing the trailer doesn't draw enough attention to....it's about arm wrestling people.  Arm. Wrestling.
