Feeling a bit misty for South Africa? Maybe hear Landon Donovan's goal call one more time from Ian Darke? "One Goal USA" just released the official trailer for their 2010 World Cup film, "LADUMA".

"Millions of people worldwide watched the 2010 FIFA World Cup on television, as Spain won the first ever soccer World Cup to be played on the African continent.

Let's be clear, people. We might be world renowned slouches, but if you're going to throw random videos of Dutch footballers doing weird things while wearing lycra at us, we're going to make it our business to find out why.

Here's what we came up with: the Stars of Football campaign for which this (and numerous other amusing films featuring NT players) was made for, has something to with a Dutch supermarket chain called C1000.

Top 10 footballers in films: Cole, Cantona, Collymore, Beckham and more

Less than week to go now until the Scottish Football Blog's 24 hour "blogathon."
A good time then to feature this video from Donkey Stone Films featuring some of the sights and sounds of the Homeless World Cup in Paris.

It is all too easy to get snobby and sneer at footballers about their (usual) lack of a high-level education. And too often that sneeriness is borne out of nothing but jealousy at the fact they get paid shed-loads of money for simply playing football. Still, in the case of poor old Darren Mackie of Aberdeen, it's hard not to giggle.

I'm sure someone will find a way to twist the following statement to make me look like a prick or self-hating negro but here it is anyway: I'm tired of seeing soccer movies about poor, brown people.
Documentary makers, you know we're not a monolith right? There are well-to-do brown folks that play soccer as well.

Mario reminds me a bit of Eric Cantona. Flamboyant, troubled and outrageously talented...oh and they both love playing up to the cameras Obviously Mario isn't going to stop appearing in all kinds of adverts, and you know what I'm glad. Hell if he doesn't take up an acting career after football I will be deeply [.

A group of students at DePaul University created a film chronicling Section 8, the Chicago Fire supporters group. It's a great film and hopefully we'll start to see more films like this about the growing soccer supporters culture in the United States.
Living in the Red is a video about the Chicago Fire Soccer Fan club, Section 8, produced by Marlin Kolev, Ethan Faure and Heather Eidson for Documentary Production 471 at DePaul University, 2011.

Can a man's work be separated from his personal life? Movie-watchers must ask themselves if it is possible to enjoy the works of Roman Polanski knowing of the sexual allegations directed towards the director, or if Mel Gibson's bigotry should lead them to boycott his films. Cesena fans find themselves faced with a similar dilemma this season, as the club brings in Adrian Mutu to help an anemic.

After spotting him in the pressbox, I was curious about what LA Times writer Bill Plaschke would write about - given that he hasn't shown much interest or knowledge about soccer in the past. Here's his take.
Kevin Baxter wrote on the match itself, but his piece didn't contain his joke about Chuck Blazer's resemblance to Fat Bastard from the Austin Powers films.

Here is the latest in the in a series of films by Nike Digital following the U.S. WNT to the World Cup. This one features the U.S. team doing the treadmill test. The goal: run for as long as you can.
They say only the strong survive.But what they mean is only the fit survive.In the modern game, endurance fuels match defining moments.

The talented folks with Nike Digital started shooting the U.S. team back in September during its training camp in Atlanta, Ga. Here is the first of many films as Nike follows the U.S. team to the Women's World Cup in Germany.

You may remember Sian Massey from such films as Andy Gray Loves The Ladies (But Not As Referees) and Richard Keys Dust Up His Resume, but now she has a new starring role as the shoulder bag for Cardiff City's Kevin McNaughton's ambling ways.

What would typically be an 'oh he got sent flying into the linesman' is a bit more.

Renault has teamed up with Thierry Henry again. The New York Red Bulls player first endorsed the car manufacturer back in 2001 where he starred alongside his now ex-wife. The new advert features Dita Von Tease along with clips from famous films and oddly Rihanna. The ad asks us, "What is Va Va Voom?" Perhaps, this ad?

After Arsenal's loss in the Carling Cup final, I decided to open the second canister in that mysterious stack of dusty old D.W. Griffith films that were apparently never released in the 1910s and '20s. I don't know what this means, but I'm not sure how much longer I'm going to feel safe keeping these in the basement.

"Let me tell you that Nani isn't very good on the piano. He's hopeless!" said Anderson. "I didn't know about Berba's drawing... My talents? I'm good at video games. Does that count? It's important to relax, so I spend a lot of time on my PlayStation. I play mainly football games, but I like shooting ones, too.

The Boy King of New York & Jersey™ may not be getting as much playing time for his club as most of us would like to see but that's not going to stop 723 Films from dropping a mixtape of his USMNT exploits. And that's a good thing really because I think some folks out there have forgotten just how hot the kid is; don't let all the Spanish pine-riding fool you, dude is still probably the most legit American striker since Waldo.
