a state of extreme excitement; "the crowd was at fever pitch"
Fever Pitch is the title of a 1992 book by British author Nick Hornby. The book is the basis for two films of the same name: a British film was released in 1997, and an American remake in 2005. There is also an unrelated 1985 movie Fever Pitch, starring Ryan O'Neal.
Fever Pitch is a 1985 movie starring Ryan O'Neal and directed by Richard Brooks. It was nominated for four Razzie Awards, including Worst Picture, as well as contributing to O'Neal's later Razzie nomination for Worst Actor of the Decade. (Fittingly, O'Neal was beaten by Sylvester Stallone: all four of the awards for which Fever Pitch was nominated were won by Stallone vehicles.)
Fever Pitch, which was released as The Perfect Catch outside of the United States and Canada, is a Farrelly Brothers comedy film. It is a remake of a 1997 British film of the same name, and is loosely based on the Nick Hornby book Fever Pitch, a best-selling novel in the UK. While both the book and the original 1997 film are about football, this version, aimed at the US market, is about baseball.
Fever Pitch is a fictional villain created by Marvel comics as a member of the second incarnation of the mutant terrorist organization Gene Nation and later as a member of X-Corps. He was one of the few Gene Nationals to make a sustained appearance outside of the group besides the various leaders: Marrow, Mikhail Rasputin, Callisto, and Dark Beast.
Fever Pitch was the official soundtrack to the 2002 FIFA World Cup, held in Japan and Korea. The album featured popular artists from several of the countries represented at the World Cup including Jennifer Lopez, Nelly Furtado and Bomfunk MC's. The album was released by Sony Music Entertainment.
Fever Pitch is a film starring Colin Firth based loosely on the book of the same name by Nick Hornby.
