The X Games just may be the ultimate party sports; perhaps that is why they have inspired so many parties, not to mention some exciting party movies.

An X Games movie marathon should include films that excite, challenge and inspire the viewer. These could include:

X Games 3D: The Movie--directed by Steve Lawrence, starring Travis Pastrana, Ricky Carmichael, Shaun White
Global Addiction—directed by Gregg Godfrey, starring Travis Pastrana, Nate Adams
Slap Shot—directed by George Roy Hill, starring Paul Newman
Bend It Like Beckham—directed by Gurinder Chadha, starring Parminder Nagra, Keira Knightley
BMX Bandits—directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith, starring David Argue, John Ley and Nicole Kidman
Aspen Extreme—directed by Patrick Hasburgh, starring Paul Gross, Peter Berg, Finola Hughes
While some of these films spotlight the X Games and even star X Games stars, others simply concern the high flying, hard driving sports celebrated in X Game tournaments. And all of them will bring the crowd to its feet at an X Games party.

Aside from some great movies, a party host can be further impress X Games fans with some extreme theme-related party supplies. These could include a dynamic scene setter that resembles a sky slope or bike track, paper mache ski poles and bikes hanging from the ceiling, as well as cardboard cutouts and poster art of X Game stars, such as Shaun White, adorning the walls. Glossy photos of these same stars, along with X Games bumper stickers and event DVDs, would make great take home party favors.

Party colors at an X Games party should be bold and dynamic, with scarlet reds, strong blues, as well as vivid golds and silvers predominating. Make guests feel like they are attending an X Games event; not a delicate tea party with a misbegotten X Games theme.
