The story of a man who returns home to prevent his mother from marrying his mortal enemy.
A successful motivational author comes home confident that he can overcome his childhood demons only to discover that his mother is marrying the former gym teacher who put him and his fellow classmates through years of physical and mental torture growing up. Billy Bob Thornton, Seann William Scott, and Susan Sarandon star in the outrageous comedy Mr. Woodcock. Scott stars as John Farley, a self-help author who returns to his hometown only to discover that his mother (Sarandon) has fallen in love with his old high school nemesis, Mr. Woodcock (Thornton) – the gruff, no-nonsense gym teacher who had put him through years of mental and physical humiliation. Determined to prevent history from repeating itself, John sets out to stop his mother from marrying the man who had made life miserable for him and his classmates. Mr. Woodcock also features a strong supporting cast including Amy Poehler (Saturday Night Live) and Ethan Suplee (My Name Is Earl).

I understand some people may have had a horrible PE teacher in High School, but this movie will make all PE teachers look bad. We are currently trying to change the image of Physical Education. PE is so different now and it would be a shame if a movie like this was made and put out there for the public. We are such an obese nation and I feel this movie will only make people hate PE. Physical Education is not about the athletes anymore, but about each individual learning lifetime activities to stay healthy for the rest of their lives. We want people to like exercise, to like physical Education where they learn how to move their own body well. Please do not produce this movie to the public!!!!
Sincerely,
A concerned physical education specialist
