I'm compiling a Speed Bag Movie List (http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speed_bag_movies).
If any of you guys or gals notice a speed bag in a movie, please post the name and link to the movie if you can, or PM me.
thanks.
This isn't a movie but an episode of "Team Sanchez" on MTV2 last week had a guy stopping a speedbag rebound with his face :o

Simpsons Season 8 Episode 3 The Homer They Fall
Homer becomes a boxer...there's a short boxing montage in the middle with a very brief cartoon speedbag
The trailer for the new Rocky movie has some speedbag action so I imagine the full length movie will have some as well.

It's funny, when I got my bag I started going through my fight movies looking for anyone useing the speedbag. Actually learn one or two things from it too. You already mentioned Cinderella Man. Also there's Rocky and Rocky Three, probably all the Rocky movies do. Annapolis is a good movie and it show one in there getting worked. Million Dollar Baby has a lot of speedbag scenes in it as well.

there's also a clip in the Marvel movie Daredevil. That's where i first saw the speed bag. (than of course the rocky movies!)
Three movies that come to mind are:
The Hurricane
The Raging Bull
and Requiem for a Heavywieght
I don't remember if there are any speed bag scenes in these movies, but I thought I'd list them to see if anyone remembers a SB scene in any of them.

"The Dead Pool" with Clint Eastwood. For some early stuff catch "Pittsburgh" with John Wayne and Randolph Scott. Early on in that film there is a scene were they attend a exhibition bout and an old school striking bag with a vaudeville style free standing platform is demonstated.

De Niro seems to like the speed bag for it is in several movies with him. Another reason he is a class actor!

does any one know ***** bags and speedbag, which one is better? i found a website (spam link removed), but i do not know it is good or not.
I often take a ***** bag and cut it up and re-stitch it. I make it the shape of a pear. Then i put some laces at the top side and leave an opening. I then put a balloon inside and blow it up.
Then, and then only, do I call it a true ***** Bag!
***** BAG ON!

Anyone remember a movie from '92 with Cuba Gooding Jr, Robert Loggia, Brian Dennehy, and Ossie Davis called "Gladiator"? A couple of speed bag scenes there. Brian Dennehy at his best, when he's sinister and conniving.

Just watched tonights episode of "Boardwalk Empire" There was a scene in a gym where one of the charecters was getting a rubdown, and prodomenently in the background was a large gold colored striking bag. Couldn't see any markings but definitely old school.
