Poll question: Ok one more Poll and I will go away...Best Baseball themed Movie!!

Tough one, but I would give Field of Dreams the nod over Bull Durham

1. "A League of Their Own"

"There's no crying in baseball!" :)

[Parrcrow]

5. seconded

although I really liked Major League as well.

[TheDebbieDee]

16. Thirded......

one of the best movies of any kind!

2. I love Field of Dreams

I watch it everytime it comes on TV. And I cry a little when they have a catch. :cry:


(I'm such a sap.) :)

4. usually, women don't get that.

At least the ones that I have talked with about that movie.

Them: "What's the big deal about throwing a baseball back and forth?"

Me: :eyes: "It's a father/son thing"

[Trigger Hippie]

Yeah, I've heard that too.

My dad taught me to love baseball. It's the only sport I care about. I guess the movie reminds me of me and my dad. Ooohhhhh. :cry:

9. How about the double whammy of being on both ends of the

father/son deal?

Dammit!

13. Can't imagine it.

3. I really like The Natural.

And the original 1951 "Angels in the Outfield" starring the Pittsburgh Pirates. :)

6. Others

Rhubarb about a mean ass cat that brings luck to a losing baseball team, and is kidnapped by the mafia to fix the series, starring Ray milan, William Frawley, and others.
It happens every spring, another screwball comedy.

7. Angels In The Outfield

[Shredr]

8. Field of Dreams was magical

Then I would have to agree about A League of Their Own.

10. Field of Dreams is good, but it's not really about baseball

the way Bull Durham is. It's more about personal journeys.

11. The Natural

Hands down, no questions asked - the best Baseball movie and probably the best sports movie of all time.

12. Bang the Drum Slowly

Michael Moriarty and Robert DeNiro. Kind of a baseball version of Brian's Song, except not as pretty. Great flick.

[Shell Beau]

14. I saw that a remake of Bad News Bears has been made.

It looked funny. With Billy Bob Thorton playing Walter Matthau's character. I know most remakes don't need to be remade, but I look forward to seeing it.

15. Bad News Bears

:)

17. Long Gone w/Wm Petersen and Virginia Madsen

An HBO movie, very good. An over-the-hill player, a sexy groupie, and a black player who has to pretend to be Puerto Rican in oder to play in the deep South in the early 60s.

18. Bull Durham

followed closely by Field of Dreams, which always makes me cry.
