My Thoughts on Blackballed: The Bobby Dukes Story

by Evan

Bobby Dukes

I’m not at all crazy about Blackballed: The Bobby Dukes Story. The plot seems fine, kind of like the Dodgeball of paintball, but it’s really not representing professional level paintball at all. One, it just looks downright hokey, like it was homemade or something. Two, we all know that professional paintball is played on nice, rolled out turf, with high end guns (Shockers, Egos, Dms/Pms etc), but this doesn’t even capture that. It looks like a run down field on the edge of the woods where players are playing woodsball.

From what I can tell it’s just not a great image that paintballers like to see. I’d like to see the hardcore I’ll mow your face side of it, but that just won’t happen in a big movie. I think it will be a let down, like one comment had mentioned on the last post, so I doubt I’ll ever get around to it.
