Title: Best baseball movie?
Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 13, 2007, 02:34:12 AM: I have a soft spot for The Sandlot (For-ev-er! For-ev-er!) and I think A League of Their Own maybe the the most entertaining of the bunch, but of all of 'em, Field of Dreams will always be my favorite.

Post by: Phoenix Dark on February 13, 2007, 02:35:17 AM: Field of Dreams is amazing and the best most likely, but I figured I'd go for Sandlot since no one else will. What a fun movie to watch as a kid

It's also a surprisingly accurate look at japanese culture.

Because Kevin Costner hijacked the production and it sucked.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 13, 2007, 02:41:06 AM: I am not putting Mr. Baseball on this. It is humorous, but is an aged piece of early 90s pop trash. If that goes on the list, then so does For Love of the Game and Rookie of the Year.
Title: Re: Best baseball movie?

Post by: Verboten on February 13, 2007, 02:47:32 AM: I had to vote for The Sandlot because The Fan wasn't up there. A League of Their Own was great, but it has Rosie O'Donnell and Madonna in it. Bonus points for the Tom Hank pee scene.

Yup. It's one of the market-tested soulless Disney flicks of the 90s. It has as much heart as The Fox and the Hound 9.
