As you know if you have been following this blog for a long time; I am not into traditional stick-and-ball sports (including Ice Hockey).
It boggles my mind that the producers of the 1977 motion pictured titled “Slap Shot” starring Paul Newman would select 3 real-life Hockey Players who play in Minor Hockey Leagues out of the many, many other Minor League Hockey players they could have chosen for the roles in this movie; by the names of Steve & Jeff Carlson and David Hanson, who would not only go on to become comedians once their Professional Hockey Playing and Coaching days were over-making jokes about the Ice Hockey community; but would also star in the two sequels to this so-called “Slap Shot” movie-produced 25 and 31 years after the original 1977 motion picture was produced, in 2002 and 2008; respectively.
These so-called “Hanson Brothers” may think they are Hollywood material, but the truth is; they’re not in any way, shape, or form.
Even in their time of playing Semi-Professional Ice Hockey, I wouldn’t care Steve & Jeff Carlson and David Hanson’s careers in Playing and then Coaching Ice Hockey; and the old ways of NASCAR that it had from the 1970’s up until the crack of the 21st Century would be many times more important to me than the old ways of the NHL and Ice Hockey in general that Steve & Jeff Carlson and David Hanson are well accustomed to.
Not only would I rather that Paul Newman acted in another movie about cars instead of the original, so-called “Slap Shot” movie; I also feel weird over the youngest of the Baldwin brothers-Stephen Baldwin having been cast as the lead character-an Ice Hockey Player; and…I would rather that Joanna Noyes’ daughter Jessica Steen had a role in Marc Brown’s Arthur Animated Television show and potentially in an Arthur movie fabricated by me that is geared towards adults as a long lost cousin to David Read (Joanna Noyes is the voice of David Read’s mother and Arthur’s grandmother Thora in the Arthur Animated Television show; so casting her daughter Jessica Steen as the voice of a long lost cousin of David Read would be a perfect fit for Ms. Noyes’ daughter) rather than play the female Head Coach of the Minor-League Ice Hockey team in the second so-called “Slap Shot” movie that was produced in 2002.
Also, regarding the third and final so-called “Slap Shot” film that was produced in 2008 where poor Leslie Nielsen was cast in it, and probably opting not to take a paycheck for starring in this low-budget film alongside the fairly young and unknown male actors and the female actor who was the main antagonist in this film-in order to keep the budget for producing this film low because Leslie Nielsen being a well-regarded, well-respected, reputable, and established actor and comedian whose career dates back to the 1950’s would have probably commanded a very costly paycheck that would have greatly exceeded the budget that the producers for this film already had in place. I don’t generally like seeing or hearing about children and teenagers being placed in a group home, and witnessing the derelict “Boys Home” where all of the males who made up the Junior Hockey team in this third and final so-called “Slap Shot” film, had lived because they were orphans; was no exception.
I also did not like https://mparij.wordpress.com/2018/01/10/actor-grayson-holt/ the attractive, young-stud actor who was cast as the matriarch/head of the household/caregiver of the “Boys Home”, and also as a the “Captain” of the Junior Ice Hockey team consisting of him and all of the other young males who resided in this “Boys Home” in the third and final so-called “Slap Shot” film; as I feel that Grayson Holt should have instead been cast in a role in another movie where he would have been required to wear a fat suit, portray a character who would be fat and overweight; and that this character be a amateur/ham radio operator who also, on occasion; competes in amateur/ham radio contests.
