This movie is one of the GOAT sports movies.
This is one of the greats but rudy definitely gets the best sports movie honor
Sandlot for me.. All 3 are great.
Field of Dreams
Hoosiers
Cant say I agree...
Remeber the Titans is probably my no1 pick,
but its definitely up there, probably top3.
Definitely top5.
The older women playing at the end were the real players. Madonnas song at the end always makes me tear up.
It's one of my favourites by her, especially the extended version which includes another verse.
She has never performed that song live has she?
Especially now that I’m getting older and yearning for the nostalgia
Ditto.
That song gets me every time.
That scene where the woman has a HUGE bruise on her upper thigh and buttcheek....
That's NOT makeup!!!
That's a real bruise she got from slidin aka dirt in the skirt!
They wanted to include it, because she was THAT committed!!!
That bruise took over a year to heal completely.
I played softball 4 years. I was a really good player, but my fatass refused to slide!
😅
That's NOT just a bruise, in baseball terminology it's called a "Strawberry". It's a friction burn and they do take a long time to heal, usually a month. You can get one even if you are wearing baseball pants. Back in the day, it was a sign that you were a "real" baseball player. We had no idea about sliding pants back then as young teens.
@@tlm101155 no it didnt
Fact! She reported that it took over a year for the bruise to finally disappear. I couldn’t imaging the pain.
The scene where the Black woman throws the ball back gets me everytime. She was letting them know that we could’ve been great in baseball too if we would’ve been given a chance.
Wasn't that long ago MLB announced they will now count the records of the old Negro League, long overdue! So many talented players in that league that never got their just due.
@@marcpower4167 Yes!!! Long overdue!!! My husband’s grandfather played for the Birmingham Black Barons!
@@cflournoy1529Omg! That's amazing! Both of my husband's grandfather's played, too. Although he doesn't recall the specifics, he knows his maternal grandfather was sent from Detroit to go play for the Jacksonville Red Caps. His paternal grandfather played for a team in Cuba. 😊
It shocks me how many UA-cam reactors totally miss the point in that scene. In fact, they all miss it! I thought it was POWERFUL the first time I saw it in the ‘80s.
@KevyNova the movie came out in 1992.
Marla's dad steals the show in the two important scenes we see him in.
Definitely. That's a really good dad there.
@@mijreed
Yep and he was right...she went where things happen...and she got a great life out of it.
He was a real one. All he wanted was to see his daughter happy and to succeed.
“Longest flashback ever. A whole movie.” 🤣🤣
Walk the line comes close lol
This was so funny. I farted and laughed at the same time.
Pootie Tang
isn't Titanic a flashback? I've never watched, just going off what I heard
Little Big Man
Tom Hanks said it was the most fun he ever had making a movie as he got to eat what he wanted,drink beer,play baseball with a great group of people in small towns across America.
There were no stunt players in this. The ladies all had to train and play well to be in the movie.
Geena Davis ( Dottie) qualified for the Olympics in Archery!
Almost qualified, I think.
Yet another reason Jeff Goldblum fell in love with her 🥰🥰
Some fun facts that only older folks will remember. IRL, "Dottie and Kit" were from Canada, not out west. Their actual names were Marge and Helen Callaghan. Helen had five sons, and one of her sons, Casey Candaele played a short time in MLB. Helen and Casey were the only mother-son duo to play professional baseball. Another of Helen's sons made the original documentary that inspired the movie.
To this day I still quote lines from this movie on a weekly basis.
Nice retort.
There’s no crying in baseball.
$75 a week in the 1940s is about $1400 a week today. so yeah- good money.
Not that good…
@@brittyn $72,000 per year is good money
@@brittyn you're joking right? they could buy a house in less than a month. that's pretty freakin good.
@@nicebluejay It's $18,000 (325k in today's market) a year. For comparison, in 1943:
- Average cost of a new house: $3,600
- Average annual wages: $2,000
- Average monthly rent: $40
- Cost of a gallon of gas: 15 cents
- Average price for a new car: $900
edit in parenthesis.
@@7kortos7 I’m thinking of what they’d have been paid as men. It pales in comparison.
All the actresses had two tryouts-playing baseball and acting. If they couldn't play ball, they didn't get to do an acting audition. The story goes the batting cages in Los Angeles were booked solid for weeks by actresses learning how to play. Rosie O'Donnell had played in college, but many didn't have an athletic background. Madonna had to learn how to play, and Rosie was a big help to her. She also had to do dance rehearsals, so she was putting in about twice as many hours off set as anyone else. Everyone was impressed with her desire to learn and do well.
All except Madonna, she could barely swing the bat in the sceen where she hits it to the outfield but I don't think it mattered cuz they probably wanted her anyway
My husband and I have been married for 18 years and we still use the line "give the wife a pickle tickle" 😂
Marla Hooch.. What a hitter!! This cracks me up every time. 😂😂
How many times I've seen this and that part still gets me 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Marla Hooch was a baller. Sweet stroke
Hey, Leo, here's a few fun facts about this movie:
1):The baseball player who had that huge bruise on her thigh, that's not make-up effects, that was an actual bruise. In fact, all of the injuries that the players received were real injuries
2): Director Penny Marshall's daughter and her brother, Garry Marshall, appear in this movie, Penny's daughter is the actress that played Betty Spaghetti. Also,.Penny Marshall was a huge baseball fan and had a collection of baseball memorabilia
3): Penny Marshall had 2 of her former "Laverne & Shirley" cast mates appear in this movie, Eddie Mekka, who played the role of Madonna's dancing partner, played Carmine, on "Laverne & Shirley"
4): The actresses that played the elderly versions of Kit and Dottie had their voices dubbed over by Geena Davis and Lori Petty, who played the younger versions of Kit and Dottie
5): Actresses Rosie O'Donnell and Madonna ended up becoming friends in real life while making this movie, after discovering how similarly their backgrounds were
Kit is Lori Petty. You should check her out in the cult classic “Tank Girl”. Fun fact: Shirley Baker, she who couldn’t read her name, is Ann Cusack, sister of actors John and Joan.
I didn't realize that Joan and John Cusack had a sister in this movie
it makes sense thats her real name lmfaooo
I love Lori petty as lolli in orange is the new black
@@tiffanymarcellus429 oh myyyy that's why her voice is soooo familiar??? i knew i recognized her from elsewhere, but i couldn't put my finger on it! whoaaaaaa
I remember seeing her in an episode of CSI and the whole time I couldn't figure out where I knew her from cuz she had really short hair and I didn't recognize her, the voice was so familiar and it finally clicked mid way through
This is that movie that when you’re changing channels and find this one, you watch to the end… love it!! ❤
The woman that can’t read in the beginning makes me cry every time. I find so much value and enjoyment in reading, it is physically painful for me to see people that can’t read. I also lose it when betty gets her husband notice… i can’t imagine how devastating that would be. This is one of my fav movies. I grew up on it. Love your reaction.
Heartwarming reunion with Dottie and Bob.
Next scene...
Jimmy: WHY AM I THE ONLY PERSON ON THIS BUS?!...OH LET'S NOT GO TO THE WORLD SERIES WITHOUT STILLWELL'S TOYS!
Dottie dropped the ball for her sister. You see her keep hold of it 2 times in other games, and in the beginning she told her grandson to give his little brother a chance to score
Dottie DEFINITELY dropped the ball on purpose! She was such a great player, leader, and sister.
And we had seen her keep hold of the ball in an earlier scene. But still, it wasn't like she gave the game to Kit: She batted the ball at Kit; she said to pitch high fast balls because Kit couldn't lay off them and couldn't hit them; and she was honestly shocked when Kit hit the ball. I'm pretty sure that the letting go of the ball was almost spontaneous.
@melenatorr really good points that I agree with. She didn't give her the game. She challenged her, made her work for it & show that she had the heart & skill to be great. Which Kit ultimately did. But, in my heart, I believe it still wasn't enough. Knowing that Kit gave her everything & it still wasn't enough in the championship game - Dottie knew she wouldn't be able to handle a defeat of that magnitude. So she did the truly selfless & loving act of dropping that ball.
@@whitneydavis3327 Thanks! And yes, I agree completely.
She didn’t, do a little research.
I tend to disagree with this view it goes against everything that Dottie is as a character she is very much earn what you get person and she constantly challenges kit every step of the game even tells her pitcher her weekness for high fastballs. I believe she gave it everything she had and kit just came out on top
Such a great movie...probably Lori Petty's and Rosie O'Donnell's best acting performances...IMHO...and near the top of the list for each of Hanks, Davis and Madonna for their careers. Strikes a near perfect balance between the comedy, the drama and the baseball....top notch film.
I'd say Lori Petty's best acting is in Tank Girl!
@@TheLegendOfOblivion Well...I think that was her best role, but she had to do a lot better acting in this movie than in Tank Girl. It is easy to like Lori Petty, so Tank Girl was kind of an easy role for her to play...she had to act her ass off in this to make her character as unlikeable as Kitt is. I definitely love Tank Girl and what Lori did in that one, but she had to really act her butt off in this film, at least that is the way I see it.👍
@@iKvetch558 Now that you've put it that way. I totally agree with you. I think it was just because of how much I liked her as Tank Girl that it made me overlook her acting chops in this one.
Rosie was just as good in Sleepless in Seattle
@@oxKaneki Did you see her appearance in Twister? It was a surprise cameo.
Gotta do Sandlot next for a good Baseball/Summer movie...
I wish some one would react to a Little League baseball movie I loved so much. "AMAZING GRACE AND CHUCK". The final scene Jamie Lee Curtis said had everyone crying even the film crew.
My Grandmother's was close to her first cousin Wilma Briggs who appeared in the end of the movie. Wilma has the #2 spot for home runs. She was a teacher and did many speaking dates. A very cool woman. I was happy to know her and very happy to know she was so influential. She is in Baseball Hall of Fame. Lol Wilma..
A lot of this movie was filmed in my town. The field where they played the world series is still an active field, the bar that they snuck out to is about a 5 min drive from where I grew up. Tom Hanks stayed in a house that's 2 doors down from my church, and sometimes you would see him cutting the grass like anyone else. He was a class act and never acted like a big star. I was in the stands as an extra during the World Series scene. I was just a kid at that time, but I will never forget the fun I had just being there and seeing Tom Hanks chase that kid around with a bat....Good times
Yeah... whenever I see the 'Crawford Door Sales' building in the background of the game I know exactly where they are because I used to drive on the road that goes between the ballfield and that building all the time. I remember when they were in town filming. It was big news that so many stars were in town at the same time.
@@akasarahsmom I remember all the old cars parked around the ball field to make it feel like the 1940s. I believe Crawford door sales is no there.
@@williampugh8760 The Crawford Door sales building is in Evansville. The other ball field they used was in Huntingburg. Plus Wrigley Field in Chicago stood in for Harvey Field in the movie.
Heidelbach Ave in Evansville runs between the ball field and the Crawford Door Sales building. I don't think they are in business any more but the building is still there and it had the freshly painted sign on it for a long time after the movie finished filming.
I came here to say this same thing!! Evansville for the win!!
Lol, you got me thinking of the Big Bang episode where Raj said the saw,Tom Banks being nice and helping the gardener.
"I hope I have 5 just like him..." classic.
YOUR GONNA LOSE! YOUR GONNA LOSE! 😂🤣😂🤣
GOT HIM!!!
"You're still... missing the cutoff... that is something I would like you to work on... before next season." If looks could kill, that poor woman would have burst into flames.
Fun fact: the actress who played Marla, Megan Cavanaugh, did all her own hitting. All the actors had to know how to play ball but they had a couple stand-ins for hitting scenes when they needed something specific. Cavanaugh never needed a stand-in.
Tom Hanks is incapable of making a bad film. Even when playing a local idiot he's a genius. Stupid is as genius does. What a talent.
I am BEYOND proud and happy that you’re reacting to SUCH A GEM of a film!!! 💖 The ending with “This used to be my playground” ALWAYS makes me cry.
"May's good at catching balls" 🤣
Stillwell Angel taking a glove to the face, is still my fave scene!
I recommend RUN FATBOY RUN.
I always felt Dottie dropped the ball on purpuse, too. She knew she wasn't coming back while, at the same time, wanted to see her sister finally get to be the 'best' since baseball was what she really loved. I still have this movie on DVD. It's always been one of my favorites.
I can't decide if Dottie dropped it on purpose or not. She was very competitive. She told the pitcher how to throw high ones so Kit would strike out. She wasn't giving Kit a break there. She was surprised when Kit hit that ball hard. Maybe Kit just made a great play. Or maybe Dottie gave it to her.
The best baseball movie of all time!!
This movie is my all time favorite. Thank you so much for checking it out. 🧡🧡🧡
My dad lives in Rockford and when I was a kid, and visited him, he took me & my sister to the field where the Peaches played. I'm glad they made this movie and immortalized these women. There was a terrible tornado that ripped through Rockford in the 60's (I think) & I remember seeing a mini documentary on it (on the weather channel maybe) that everyone should see, if you like docs. Hope everyone had a good, safe 4th ✌️😎
Such a classic. One of my favorite movies of all time. I love Penny Marshall flicks. Geena Davis was a doll.
As much as the whole cast is great, as an 80’s kid, I always love seeing the familiar faces of Gary & Penny Marshall’s sitcom peers. And Rosie always steals it for me. She’s f’ing hilarious! Great reaction!!! Happy 4th Leo ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸!
The woman playing Betty spagettii was pennys daughter
Avoid the clap, Jimmy Dugan 😂
never understood what that meant as a kid
Same 😂😂😂
A few other baseball movies you should check out, Leo:
Angels in the Outfield (1951)
The Bad News Bears (1976)
Mr. Baseball (1992)
The Sandlot (1993)
Bad News Bears is a must!!!
Leo's has already seen Major League.
Sandlot!
@@user-ow1fx8th6u Thanks for the heads up, removed it, and added a few other ones.
Field of dreams
FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME
My all time favorite baseball movie!! The cast assemble, acting , story, music, it’s all fantastic!!
One of the best chick flicks you will ever see and it's based on a true story. Some of the names were changed, but some of the characters are all based on real people. They actually brought in Madonna as a gimmick to try to bring in audiences, even having her sing the title song, The Used To Be My Playground, but as it turned out, she gave one of her best performances here and had good chemistry with Rosie O'Donnell. Some of her lines are priceless and she delivers them really well. If you want to see more of Kit AKA Lori Petty, she had a starring role in a 90s comic book movie called Tank Girl. It's very 90s and hit and miss for some people, but it has some funny moments, including a surprise appearance from rapper Ice T as a kind of rapping kangaroo jack.
It's a sports comedy, nothing chick flick about it.
Tom's scene in the locker room when he first walks in that Madonna was timing was actually improvised. Director Penny Marshall was off-camera using a hose to put water in a bucket and stopping at random times. Tom just did what Tom does best... Also the scene right after Marla got on the train was cut because as Penny Marshall said it was a "warm" scene. Unfortunately UA-cam deleted that clip. It is hilarious. If you can find it somewhere, it's worth watching. The way she eats on the train is epic.
A friend's mother was a Racine Belle and she loved this movie. She said they "hollywooded it up a bit" but really captured the feel of the league and how much the players loved being in it.
no matter how many times ive seen this movie, love it every time.
"I'm impressed the hats stay on!" Lol, it's called hat pins, sir! In the 1800s, they stabbed perverts with them!
So multifunctional!
@@debbyemerson3877 😅
Every reaction to this movie that I've seen people are impressed about the hat lol
Perverts and the occasional wrestler. 😁😁😁😁
Bro, you gonna destroy your dvd player with how many movies you watch. Mans on fire with the uploads. Much love Leo!
“There’s no crying in baseball!!” Love Hanks’ performance in this.
Theresss no crying in baseballl!
Happy 4th! 🎉 super stoked to see this classic!!!!!!!! My sister and I still ask “has anyone seen my new red hat?” Bc we always thought that was funny for some reason! But this cast and story are a dream! Classic and so rewatchable!
Oh piss on your hat
Happy 4th Mr. Video. Always glad to see ya😎
This is one of my favorite movies of all time tbh.
Happy 4th Leo!! 🇺🇸
Thanks for bringing the heat 🔥
Even on holiday you're working!!😁
Please react to 'Steel Magnolias' 1989 and 'Fried Green Tomatoes' 1991.
I think he would love both of these! Leo's got a lot of heart!
This is one of them gems of a movie, because its based on actual true events. If you enjoyed this movie, and haven’t seen these I highly recommend them. Major League 1 & 2, Sandlot (early 90’s) Rookie of the year, Little Big League, field of Dreams, Mr 3000, 42 The Jackie Robinson Story (Based on true events) 61 (Based on True Events), Mr Baseball (Tom Selleck), The Scout (Brandon Fraser) and Angels in the Outfield (Danny Glover). Just to name a few. Keep up the great work man.
Great reaction Leo! Of all the accolades Tom Hanks has, this is my favorite performance of his. And avoiding the Clap is still good advice 🤣.
Wow same day recording? #blessed Thank you Mr. Video! :)
Please do many many more reactions!! I miss the ones that aren't available 😭
Happy 4th Leo! Enjoy the day!
One of my fave reaction movies 👍🏼
The ladies at the end playing ball were the ones left of the real players in the Girls League.
A classic!
Yes! That's a real bruise!
2:00 Ladi Dadi we like to party
We ain't cause no trouble and we ain't bother nobody!
Thanks for that awesome memory!
This movie is a 10 out of 10; it’s a perfect film. It is just as much fun to watch the 100th time as it is the first time.
Ahhhhhhhh OMG it's so nice for you to react to this movie.🎉
Madonna was IT back then. She's still a great artist saw her in February and it was amazing. This entire cast was A+
Even if you're not a huge baseball fan Cooperstown is a must visit wonderful amount of history there and also great ballparks I've played there a few times on my traveling All Stars team
I love this movie. The ending when you find out how they lived their lives always makes me tear up.
The old ladies playing in the beginning were the actual players this is based on
Great movie. Lots of hilarious lines 😂
One of my favorite baseball movies. Thank you for reacting to this.
"Kit you won something, you got on the train first." I died. Thank you for that one lol
A League of Their Own is in a league of its own!!! This Tom Hanks film along with Catch Me If You Can, The Burbs, Forrest Gump and The Terminal are terrific!!!
Happy 4th, DUDE! Great choice!
Man, I haven't seen this movie in years! Maybe since it first came out. And now I want to see it again. What a fun reaction this was.
Great choice!
Major League is another gem.
Mr. Video!!! Keep it up with your content!! Your channel and vibe always gets me in a good mood. wether I’m watching your videos while cleaning, doing my hair or getting ready and not wanting to go to work lol but always in a better mood after watching your videos! 🍿🎬
One of my favourite movies of all time!
i remember watching this movie as a kid with mum. such an uplifting sports movie with some history to it ;-;
I've got a buddy that was actually an extra in this movie, and....he never lets anyone forget it.
Poltergeist and now this? Bro is working his way through the list of my favourite films. Labyrinth next pleeeeease? 🙏😂
I love this movie and got to see it in the theater back in the day. A great sports movie!
tom hanks said in an interview that this was his favorite movie to film.
The Peaches played at our field in Huntingburg Indiana for the movie, League Stadium,
Evansville IN too, Bosse Field.
John Lovitz as the recruiter in this is awesome😂
So when i first saw this, I was a kid and Kit was my favorite character. Now, Dottie is who I relate too. it's it a stage of life kind of thing, I think. And Dottie definitely dropped the ball on purpose.
“Pickle Tickle” is still used to this day. Jewel.👍🏾
Leo that’s Jon lovitz the peeper in window in little Nicky! He’s hilarious
Happy 4th Mr Video. Great movie and reaction! I’m only gonna say it one more time because third time’s a charm: “Revenge of the Nerds” was made for you.
Geena Davis and Samuel L Jackson do a action comedy movie together 1996 The Long Kiss Goodnight. Samuel L Jackson has said this is his favorite movie of his. It's got some great one liner's. Check it out. Happy 4th of July, grape freeze pop is a classic 😀
I LOVE that movie!!
JEFF was HERE 🏆
🇺🇸🌭 🎇
🐐 thanks bro!!!!!!
Dottie 100% dropped the ball on purpose, her sister's self-eteem is more important than the World Series
Player with the bruised leg....that was real. They were really out there and they had full on tryouts for the game itself. Even for those in the main roles. Freakin' fun movie. So rewatchable like The Sandlot. I watch it maybe once a year. Lay off those high ones bruh. : ) Great reaction.
32:52 There’s a debate among a lot of us that Dottie let go of the ball on purpose. Cause earlier in the montage a bigger girl knocks her on her ass and she holds on. But Kit knocks her down and the ball comes loose? Yeah Dottie instructed Ellen Sue to throw high fastballs to end it there but however I think in that moment when she saw Kit blowing past the stop sign from 3rd she decided to do it. Saw that Kit needed it more than her. Dottie wasn’t staying anyways and for Kit this was for her to get away from her parents.
This was filmed at Bosse Field in Evansville Indiana. My home town! One of the oldest parks in the country. We have a men's idependent league team that still plays there today.
Hope u had safe and happy 4th. Crackin' me up by a bit of the "pickle tickle", lol. An amazing film of the true greatness of the Womens Pro Baseball League. Thanx so much Mr. V. take care, Peace
The announcer was Squiggy from Lenny and Squiggy!! If you’re old you know!❤
Love your stuff. Keep it up!
