9-Ball the movie

[ace man]

I was told by a good friend that Jeanette Lee looks even better in person...

Now as for snooker movie...perhaps it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a female character as a leading role...a fictional story where girl beats all guys and wins the Championships at the Crucible...of course by making a 147 in the deciding frame. I know, I know...it's science fiction, but maybe it would get audience...

it could get more birds in the snooker rooms.

if there is ever a reason for me to put pool as my number 1, rather than snooker, its gotta be jeanette lee.

sorry guys. im dig asian females, as i too am asian and more importantly, im a guy. im only human!!!

I wouldn't mind that. Which actor would you like to see play the part of Paul?

Leonardo DiCaprio

5 years...are you kidding me?

Well,a significant amount of timeif you want them to resemble a pro IMO. For 9 ball just about anything goes

...the latter was a joke by the way, I play 9 ball too and have a lot of respect for the skills of the top players.

Yep mine too..

[RocketRoy1983]

Brad Pitt did a pretty good Irish accent in Snatch so im sure he could do a yorkshire one!?!?

Anyway for what its worth if you wanna see a good game of pool between two ladies watch Ja and April Madness

The films ok-ish.
