Dodgeball

In the movie Dodgeball a small, independent gym called Average Joe’s is about to be taken over by a large corporate gym called Globogym. The members of Average Joe’s have nowhere else to go and don’t want the gym to close. They need to raise $50,000 to keep the gym open but they don’t know where to raise the money. They decided to enter into a dodgeball tournament where the top prize was $50,000. Globogym gets news of this and also enters the tournament to make sure Average Joe’s doesn’t win. The final comes down to Globogym and Average Joe’s. Average Joe’s ends up winning and the gym is saved. This movie shows how so many small businesses that a lot of people count on end up being shut down by large corporations. A lot of these large companies do whatever it takes to get rid of these small businesses. Most are known for lowering their prices until the small business lose all of their customers and are forced to close. This is a large economic problem that will probably never be solved.
