MLP Update: The Movie

Back by popular demand--it's another cynical VFTD game! Okay, that's a lie. It's not back by popular demand, it's back 'cus I remembered it's been a long time since the last time there was another cynical VFTD game. (That's trademarked, btw.) No, it isn't. That's another lie. Many of you have probably never seen a cynical VFTD game before but not to worry. They're all different.
This time the game is to match up any or all of the major paintball leagues with a movie title that you think best describes their current status.
To give you some ideas here's some movies that occurred to me. Yes, just the movies--if you want you can see if you'd match them to the same leagues I would. (I'll post those up later in an UPDATE of this update.) Dead Man Walking. Kingpin. The Great Race. The Circus. Plan 9 from Outer Space. Zoolander. The Poseidon Adventure. Highlander. Goodfellas. High Anxiety. Multiplicity. A Fistful of Dollars. Papillon.
Or you make your own movie matches and post them up in comments. If this works out like past cynical VFTD games--well, you know.

The Prisoner=CXBL I know it wasn't a movie but it is just as confusing as this series ;)

Good choice--but I'm uncertain what you're suggesting. 3 not-really-promoters will somehow triumph and defeat El Guapo (the PSP?) anyway? It's heart-warming.

Scotch
Wow! Here I was assuming it was just a back to xball basics play a few matches and go for the Cup.
Btw, excellent original series was Freudian psychological exploration masquerading as spy drama. Ground-breaking TV--so you get a pass. ;)

NPPL = Dead Man Walking or Zoolander

PSP = Good Fellas or Fistful of Dollars?

Millennium = The Circus?
