Have you not seen The Sandlot and A League of Their Own?

Taking a serious stab at this...

Two movies that I feel a decent skateboard movie could be modeled after are The Wrestler and Sound of Metal.

Someone mentioned in the North Hollywood thread that everyone always tries to make skate films about the come up, but it would be much more interesting to see the opposite.

Look up Dragonslayer

No one could be more bored than Zack, the new kid in town with no friends in sight. When a gang of hip, skateboarding thrashers start cruising his neighborhood, Zack hopes his luck will change. But they want nothing to do with him. Then Zack makes the discovery of his life: a talking wisecracking, magical skateboard. And suddenly, skateboarding rises to entirely new heights.

We should do an Another Round style movie about Tom Penny getting lost in the sauce with psychedelics

Or A Star is Born with an old washed up Josh Brolin falling in love with Leticia until she overtakes him and he dies in disgrace

"London-based sales outfit Dogwoof has picked up world rights excluding Australian and New Zealand on Eddie Martin’s feature documentary The Kids, which is the story of the young skateboarders picked from the streets of Manhattan by Larry Clark to star in his 1995 cult classic Kids. ..

His latest chronicles, in their own words, how the stars of Kids became overnight commodities, thrust into the mainstream spotlight. Left adrift under the bright lights, some discovered transcendent lives and careers – while others, abandoned and unequipped to handle fame, suffered fatal consequences."

Harold Hunter,  Justin Pierce....Nick Lockwood, Lavar McBride... ...Chloë Sevigny, Rosario Dawson, Leo Fitzpatrick, Harmony Korine.

Could even bring in Quim Cardona, Jeff Pang, Ant Mo (nj),  Peter Bici
