    Yours is the second video I've seen today exploring this movies locations. Yours is better than other one I seen. Fun fact, when your dog was laying in the dirt at the ball field in St Phillips, (Oregon, lol), the ball playing extras also layed in the dirt. Reason was, the ball players needed to look more dirty than they actually were. It was supposed to be the last inning of the game and the extras were too clean so they were asked to roll around in the infield to get dirty to make it appear they had been playing hard. Make-up, (Hollywood dirt) was applied to their faces to appear dirty but rolling in the field was best answer for the uniforms to get dirty.

      @@shannonwilliams1941 The two you saw on the sign outside the stadium and then there was another movie filmed roughly at the same time called Hard Rain. Big cast in that one also. Morgan Freeman, Christian Slater, Minnie Driver, Betty White, Ed Asner, Randy Quaid.

    Great movie from the early 90s. With great assembly of actors and a movie which was fun, interesting and sad at times. Great opening theme by Carole King " Now And Forever"

    I loved your excitement at League Stadium! I had that same reaction when I saw a game at Hoosier Gym in Knightstown, IN where they filmed the movie Hoosiers.

    Great video. I was actually at the filming of the world series game. I was in sixth grade and schools in the area actually gave excused absences . Columbia pictures begged for extras to fill the stadium. It was a great experience even at my age.

    You definitely did A , Grade A , Great job here.
    I’ve seen another vid or 2 on this films locations , that did not even come anywhere close to achieving all the great shots locations that you’ve got here. Nice 👍
    P.S.
    I can’t believe they didn’t have a train sitting back there on the tracks during filming of that 1st small field where Lovitz found Dotty and her sister.

    That cool you were able to see so much with a drone. You are lucky you did not get in trouble for using a drone over a baseball field. Imagine a few years ago you would often have to go without even a drone shot.

    • @TheMagicGeekdom
      @TheMagicGeekdom  3 роки тому

      Yeah, we love using the drone, but have to be careful about where we fly it.

    I think the baseball field at the 7 minute mark was probably the best of the locations since it looked the most like the movie.

      Thanks for the suggestion! We did the Goonies a long time ago, but when we were not very experienced in making videos (but it was when you could still walk up to the house). I'm from that area, so I'm sure we will be back at some point. 😀
