dcro 10,182 Posted March 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 16, 2016 So, as the title says here we can post Olympic movies, videos and similar stuff. This can be great excitement builder for the upcoming Olympics, especially since we can already count the weeks to Rio. To start with, here is the Olympic movie of 1980 Summer Olympics. I remember watching this movie years ago on TV (on ESPN classic I believe), but I couldn't find it anywhere on the internet at the time. It was the first Olympic movie I watched and I really enjoyed it. But looks like it is available on youtube now. 1980 Moscow Olympics definitely had their problems, but this is a very nice movie nevertheless! #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't necessarily has to be a video. 2006 Torino movie is also one of my favourties. Though, my absolute favourite is Squaw Valley 1960 movie, but I can't find that on the internet (watched it on TV too few years ago). I only managed to find some parts about figure skating. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavlo 65 Posted March 17, 2016 #6 Share Posted March 17, 2016 I have the whole official IOC collection of Winter & Summer Olympics movies on dvds (from 1952, without Munich 1972), nice one. Plus i`m recording whole Olympic Games since 2000 (summer games), sure i`m making short versions after that. I`m recording Winter Games on a bigger scale since 2010 when we became stronger (winter games are far less important for me) I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hukbrazil 18 Posted March 17, 2016 #7 Share Posted March 17, 2016 The IOC channel is very good, but I miss videos of Athens 2004 and Sydney 2000 competitions. It is very difficult to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
