What movie makes you want to workout?

If you had to pick one movie that inspires you to get off the couch and workout what would it be? Mine would definitely have to be Rocky Balboa, the newest of the Rocky movies. When Duke gives his speech right before they start lifting, it makes me want to roll out of the chair and start doing push-ups. Would love to hear others opinions on this.

    G.I.Jane Certainly wasn't a brilliantly written movie. It pushed me to start the quest to a better body (yrs ago ) Maybe I should go watch it again!:laugh:
    Great quote from it:
    Pain is your friend, your ally, it will tell you when you are seriously injured, it will keep you awake and angry, and remind you to finish the job and get the hell home. But you know the best thing about pain? It lets you know you're not dead yet!
    oh and
    "Suck my d1ck!"

    If they were to warn us about an upcoming zombie apocalypse, I'm sure everyone would have great cardio :P

    GI Jane here, too. Not for the stellar plot line, but for the "I now have the determination and reason to better myself."
