BIG time classic!! 90s kids will never let the world forget about this one lol
Loved it
Im an 80s kid and I LOVE this movie! Definitely a classic.
As we shouldn't
The redhead kid was in a number of kids' movies in this era. Great reaction! It's so fun to watch a baseball fan watch it for the first time because non-fans miss a lot of the nuances. "You're killing me, Smalls" and "For...e...ver" are probably the two biggest phrases that came out of this movie, but among fans you'll hear them a ton in real life.
Thanks, I really enjoyed it
One of my absolute favorite movies!! My go-to retort has been "You're killing me Smalls!" for decades now, lol.
I say that to my boss all the time lol
love it
The t-shirt still sells.
@@continuallyblessed44 my boss says that to me all the time. 🤣
Mines
“Forever”
“Forever”
Glad you were honest about knowing about the pool scene. Most reactors would have faked a reaction or worse “predicted” what would happen.
I was a blackjack dealer ar a casino for many years. I wish I had a dollar for everytime a player would be getting a run of bad cards, and look at me and say, "You're killing me, Smalls!" From all different generations too, proving what a big deal this film is for so many, incorporated into the culture like that!
Love it
Saw this in theaters & instantly fell in love with this movie. Although it's not a baseball movie I would love seeing you react to Little Giants it's a football movie.

I absolutely love your enthusiasm watching these classics!! Keep ‘em coming!!!
Will do thanks
I absolutely love this film. It still holds up! ❤️ This film taught me the importance of the Great Bambino!
So good!
for the winter version of this, look up "The Mighty Ducks."
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
Good pick
An iconic one that I also didn't discover until later in life after hearing people quote "You're killing me Smalls!" for years 😅
The 90's were a great time for young comedies. Little Giants (1994), with Rick Moranis, is another one with a sports theme, and Heavyweights, with Ben Stiller, (1995) is more camp based.
Little Giants is amazing
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
Yeeessss Heavyweights!!!
FOREVER Forever forever for-ever for ever for ev er
fooororrrrr eeevvvvrrrr
@@AwesomeUSMovies The actor who played the policeman was also the baseball coach for the film.
Such a great movie that will be loved by many generations. Love your reactions have a great weekend !
You too thanks for watching
This is a perfect film & is nostalgic in every way ❤️ I’ve watched it every summer since 8th grade (currently 33) & will continue to do so
Hope you enjoyed my reaction
@@AwesomeUSMovies Definitely did 🙂
I almost never have anything interesting to say, so just in case no one has told you recently, you're awesome! I love watching your videos, you're hilarious!
Thank you so much. Appreciate it
We has a guy join our platoon whose last name was Small. Guess what phrase was consistently uttered when he screwed up.
yer killin me Smalls!
Oh man...
I saw this in 1996 in a church van on the way to Colorado. I thought this was one of the best sports movies I had ever seen. Great memories watching this movie with great friends.
"You're killing me Smalls" Classic Baseball line, Can't wait for Rookie of the Year and Angels in the Outfield, you'll love them!
Lots to watch
After watching Stand By Me, I knew this would be another winner of a movie for you to react to. I actually prefer it to Stand By Me, but that's because of the memories I have about the people I watched it with and the time in my life when I discovered it. I was a kid in the '70s so it is set a bit before my time. Regardless, it is still very relatable to my generation. I wasn't a "town kid", I grew up in rural Iowa like yourself. But I was definitely as awkward as the narrator (Scott Smalls) and just about as athletic as he is his first day on the Sandlot. There is something about small town life that fosters nostalgia.
Love it
In my top 5 comfort movies of all time. Watched this every single summer since 93’
I'm giving this a like before I even watch the reaction. Such a great movie. I need to give it a rewatch myself. Classic from my childhood. You're killing me smalls.
Loevd it
A nice trip down memory lane! This was one of my favorite movies growing up along with them Mighty Ducks lol
Yeah somebody requested that I will add it
I saw this on VHS not long after it came out, the 90's were a great time to have grown up. Tons of great films and music. Another good baseball film would be "The Natural," starring Robert Redford. Two of my favorite Robert Redford films are, Three Days of the Condor and Jeremiah Johnson.
Added thanks
11:28 That sly devil! 🤣
13:32 Ooh, that line has been CROSSED! 🫢
"You mix your Wheaties with your momma's toe jam!"...BEST movie insult ever!
Such a great movie this movie takes me back to my childhood everything about it is amazing the children actors are absolutely incredible
I'M 45 years old and haven't seen this movie till NOW.....FANTASTIC MAN!😀
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I did
I remember seeing this at the cinema when it came out, and I haven't seen it since. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
If you like baseball movies you should check out Bad News Bears (the original from the 1970s, not the remake).
Added thanks
If it hasn’t yet been recommended, another movie that comes to mind in the coming-of-age category is Now & Then.
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
@@AwesomeUSMovies You won’t be sorry! Thank you for the consideration.
21:20 it´s kinda a simbol that he went crazy after seeing that,weird that nobody knows that since most of the hospital horror,comedy and all those type of movies kinda do that sometimes. Yeah they were friends,but that rescue was a GIANT adventure for them,Squints was badass and most of the story at the end was cute,except for one that i think he did great on something but no one saw him ever again.Great movie.
My daughter, 37 years old, knows every word to this movie. At this point, so do I. Hahaha. We call my 16yr old Grandaughter Smalls. Great movie.
Love that
This is an all time classic. Every time I see it on TV I’ll watch. I could almost remember every single line
This movie is still as good now as it was when I was a kid. Well written movie.
Yeah man, this is a great movie for sure! We just watched it with the grandkids this weekend. Theyre approx the same age as the characters so it was a huge hit. By the way, Wendy Peffercorn is played by Marlee Shelton. She was the pregnant cheerleader, Diane, in Sugar And Spice. Another really fun movie!
Great Movie 🍿!! Watched so many times with my kids! Now grandkids! ✌🏻☀️
I loved this movie as a kid in the 90s.
I love Benny everybody should have a friend like Benny
A part of me makes me think the different ways they were trying to get the ball back were different ideas being thrown around in their minds.. 1st idea is Squints 2nd idea is Repeat 3rd idea is Ham 4th idea is Smalls and 5th is Vinny then with Vinny being those most confident and logical, they finally went with his idea
Yep I can see that
The dog always used to terrify me when I was little.
I am such a huge baseball fan. While I do not like watching on television, I do love playing it and I do love watching it live. This was one of my favorite films as a kid. I watched it so much because of the story and the baseball. It is such a good story and the carnival scene will remain with me forever. I also like the way that the story is about a kid who has a difficult time fitting in and getting along with his stepdad, but learns how to do it through a common love of baseball.
Life was so much simpler back then. Wish my kid could grow up in this era
Agreed
This is a classic from when I was younger 😁
Another great kids sports film is The Big Green, has the same redheaded guy a bit older and it's a soccer movie about a band of misfits small town class learning the sport, it's a fun movie and worth a watch
I love James Earl Jones in this and Field of Dreams. He was like grampa baseball.
The showdown with the beast is amazing. He spits the ball out daring him to come get it.
They mentioned Lou Gehrig at the end. Gehrig is among the greatest players who ever lived. I suggest you watch The Pride of the Yankees. The movie is so old, the real Babe Ruth plays his own character. It's a must watch!!!
Great movie , great story, Madeira little nervous.
Older Benny is younger Benny's real life older brother.
That's cool
I give Squints tons of credit for making his move with Peffercorn, but after her that baseball would have been the least of my concerns.
I bet
Great video as always!
this and Spaceballs were probably 2 of my favorite comedies growing up.
I reacted to Spaceballs a couple weeks ago. Go check it out. It was so funny
7:39 that's STILL a go to classic line til this day lol
Great line and delivery
An absolute classic! Love the channel!
Much appreciated!
First, you take the Graham. You stick the chocolate *on* the Graham. Then, you roast the 'mallow.
Love it
@@AwesomeUSMovies "I haven't had anything yet, so how can I have some more of nothing?"
Worked at an amusement park for years. Kids getting sick happens DAILY. Adults getting sick happens DAILY. The mess aside, we employees enjoyed it when they get sick. We got to close the ride for a while. Plus it took those cocky guys down a notch.
Definitely a great movie! Glad you enjoyed it, you always have a great reaction! Hope you’re having a awesome day and great weekend🙏🏼
Thanks for watching
Another awesome choice of movie...I have a movie that I personally think is up there with Forrest Gump as far as movies that will change you...it's called..."I AM SAM" I think it stars Sean Penn it's one of the most life changing things I've ever seen..great reactions BTW!
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
Love the Channel!
Great reaction, I'm definitely subscribing!
Thank you sooooo much
Chauncey Leopardi (Squince) came to our minor league game since it’s the 30th anniversary and was filmed in my town. I got a signed ball
Cool!
My brother.... ❤️ This movie 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Reminds me of "Angels in the outfield" ❤️❤️❤️
Added
The young Benny and older Benny were real life brothers, the older guy died a few years ago
Actually you knew the kids mom too! She was the girl from raiders of the lost ark!
Really wow I had no clue
"You're killing me, Smalls. Ok, first you take the graham. You stick the chocolate...on the graham. Then you roast the 'mallow. And when the 'mallow's flamin', stick it on the chocolate. Then you stuff it. Kinda messy, but it's good. Try it."
Great movie
I always enjoy your intros 😅❤️
The 80's and 90's had the best movies!
Side note my dad has the same R2D2 coffee mug
Love it
What do you mean you know James Earl Jones from Big Bang Theory?!
You should know him from
“Field of Dreams”!!
That’s two baseball classics Jones has starred in.
True
@@AwesomeUSMovies And Star Wars ;)
This movie is so bittersweet nostalgic, it makes me depressed everytime after I see it, but I love every minute while I'm watching it.
I can see that
One of the cutest movies. My dad loved it and I loved watching it with him. Great family film 💚
It's so good!
The Big Green is a good one too!
The guy who plays the babe plays the Tooth Fairy in the Santa Clause movies by Disney
I don't think I've seen those
Great reaction...keep it up!👍🏻
Thank you! Will do!
It's funny they chose a mastiff to play Hercules. Mastiffs are bred to look and sound intimidating and aggressive but all the ones I've run into are big, slobbery softies.
Agreed!
Love this movie! It's one of those movies that I love much more now than I did when I first saw it.
Have you ever seen the movie The Babe, starring John Goodman?
It is a wonderful movie! It got mixed reviews because it bothered more than a few that it wasn't historically accurate to specifics with Ruth's biography. But the director wasn't going for accuracy he _wanted_ to tell the story this way...it's the legend the director was going for. Anyway, I think it's a great movie!
Best Regards!
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
Great reaction
Awesome reaction 😁💯🎥📽
So glad you enjoyed it
Good job 👏🏼
Major leauge is a very funny baseball movie as well
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
James Earl Jones was also in Field of Dreams, don't forget.
Oh yeah, man I suck at that game. The cigar guy is fun Friends too
This is another fun coming of age story!
Agreed!
I kind of want to watch this movie now
"Bertram got really into the 60's, and no one ever saw him again." - WHAT HAPPENED TO BERTRAM?!?
He was in the 60's man
24:28 nobody noticed the all seeing eye…?! Right up the roof corner
Spoil free request
*The Mighty Ducks* (92, 94, 96) (my top 5 of trilogies)
Or since your a Baseball fan,
*Rookie of the Year* (1993)
Thanks, d've added all these to my list. It's appreciated
Some lady named Ruth. Baby Ruth...
Hi how are you James? I just wanted to let you know that your videos are really entertaining. I look forward to your reactions because I’ve watched movies all my life and it interests me to know how you feel or like these movies. Since you enjoyed the Sandlot, I have a couple of suggestions. They are both football movies and both based on true stories and real people. One is called Rudy, and the other is called Invincible. I won’t give anything else away about those movies, but they are very enjoyable and you get to learn a little about athletes from the past. I look forward to your reaction to one or both of these. Keep up the great reactions!
Thanks, d've added all these to my list. It's appreciated
One of the best movies ever
It was great
That was genius move from the kid, acting like he drowned 😂 but no way he married her too and had 9 kids
I miss block parties too.
edit: RIP Art La Fleur
right!
Nice film! Another V marked. 😊
This one & Holes, as well!!!! Truly great movies!!!
Also Now & Then 😎
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
NOTHING should EVER be spoiled for ANYONE!!!! I say... If someone spoils something for you.. you should consider blocking them!!Especially if you ask not to be spoiled.. and they do it anyways! It's just WRONG!!
Yeah I still enjoyed the scene but I knew something was coming.
@@AwesomeUSMovies Yeah.. It sucks.. but I guess it was just that one scene.. such a small part of the movie really! :) I just hate spoilers too! lol. Oh.. Btw.. Great reaction as always! Can't wait for the next set of movies!
Should have a one warning and then banned that scene is much funnier if you don’t see it coming
@@codyclaeys2008 Agreed :)
I will never understand what makes people want to spoil stuff for other people. Even when people say things like, "If you like plot twists, you should watch such-n-such". It drives me crazy.
The third ball he has in the end is the fake Babe Ruth ball Bennie signed👍🏼
as a blind guy he could probably tell by the feel of the ball that it was old or something..
Maybe
James, if you like good baseball movies with kids then you should watch Rookie of The Year & Little Big League.
Thanks, d've added all these to my list. It's appreciated
I remember being in elementary school playing softball. For whatever reason, I wasn't paying attention, someone had batted the ball, and it hit me right on the right side of my face. That was pretty embarrassing.
Yeah, don't be a doofus smalls
Commenting for the contest :)
Absolutely a classic.
Loved it
Definitely recommend "Field of Dreams" to you: James Earl Jones, Kevin Costner. The best!
I've actually already reacted to it. Go check it out:
