official bad news bears thread

[Dr Rick Daris]

what bad news bears do you guys like better? the original or the one where they road trip to houston. i mean in the second one, when miguel and jose ask their parents for like "four dollars...for the both of us" when everybody else is asking for like fifty and a hundred? i just lose it every time. great arguments to be made for both though, really.

best character? tanner boyle? kelly leak? man dunno.
best coach? kelly's dad-william devane or buttermaker and grumpy old men star walter matthau
best pitcher? a young tatum o'neil as amanda whurlitzer or scott baio's cousin jimmy as fireballer and lady lover carmen ronzonni


so much to discuss! let's do it!

make a top ten and just try to keep both of them out then.

also name a better original and sequel kids movie combo that isn't pixar or something. spy kids? lol. home alone. ummm, no. i mean you have kids cussing and drinking beer, some mild racism, conversion vans, baseball, motor cycles and stereotypes galore. what more do you want?

also and i mean this... the sandlot is like someone took the original bad news bears and said "hey. let's make this again, but let's make it way less edgy and more like an after school special. i mean, let's really water this thing down for the masses." there i said it.

i'm not quite sure when i decided when this list was a complete joke and that you weren't being serious. was it when you included angels in the outfield? was it when you included angels in the outfield twice? maybe it was rookie of the year or little big league which is just an absolutely wretched movie. either way, i'm not sure it really matters. i'm not falling for your "list".

also not falling for the kids movie crap you just spewed. gross.

TMNT 1 & 2 are rough ridin' great movies ricky and I'm getting pretty sick of you promoting this hot garbage BNB as better than them
