The first
Mighty Ducks movie centred on
Coach Bombay’s fall from grace after missing the crucial championship goal many moons ago. But as the film goes on and he’s surrounded by an unlikely bunch of kids whom he coaches in ice hockey, his love of the game is reignited and he gets to live the glory years vicariously. In the reboot, we pick up with Bombay, now a miserable ice rink owner who’s once again forgotten his love of hockey. Luckily, he reignites his hockey love affair throughout the season and teaches us all over again that second (and third) chances still exist.
The Mighty Ducks, D2: Mighty Ducks, and
D3: Mighty Ducks. Fittingly, his most recent role is reprising Coach Bombay in Disney Plus’
Mighty Ducks reboot.
Maximum Overdrive begins after a comet causes a radiation storm on Earth. Machines come to life and turn against their makers. Holed up in a North Carolina truck stop, a group of survivors must fend for themselves against a mass of homicidal trucks. A diner cook, Bill Robinson (Emilio Estevez), emerges as the unlikely leader of the pack, attempting to find an escape plan for himself and the survivors, who include his boss, Bubba Hendershot, and a newlywed couple.
