Sweet Summertime


As summer approaches, (actually, I think it got here awhile ago in Northern California), the best movie about being a kid in the summer came to mind.

Even 14 years after it first came out, The Sandlot still gives me that wonderful feeling that I had growing up and the long hot days and nights summer brought. Although it’s about baseball, you don’t have to even like baseball to love this film. In fact, don’t let the title fool you, this movie is about more than baseball. It’s about growing up, trying to fit in and the joy of being young with few cares in the world besides what you are going to do for fun tomorrow.

I am sure most people have seen this film but if you haven’t, go rent it or borrow it from a friend…I am sure someone you know has it. Even if you have seen it, I’m sure it was a couple of years ago. Watch it one of these hot summer nights when it is hard to sleep and remember how great it was to not have a care in the world.

Yeah, we've got mad love for the 'Lot.

Never saw Battlefield earth. Was Battlefield Earth it that bad?

Sandlot=easily the best kids baseball movie ever made. Love the cameo by James Earl Jones at the end.
