Haha, nope...

I was thinking when it was posted that it was a sequel to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" which was far earlier than the baseball movie.

I have not seen many baseball movies and most I have seen are fantasies or comedies like "Field of Dreams", "The Bad News Bears",  and "Angels in the Outfield" (1994 version).

 

Quote

The number 42 is especially significant to fans of science fiction novelist Douglas Adams' “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy,” because that number is the answer given by a supercomputer to “the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.”

I suggest "Moneyball" or "Inglourious Basterds" if you have an inkling to see more baseball movies.  "The Sandlot" is also my favorite Mike Vitar movie.

Bad News Bears.

He said he already saw that.  Both versions are worth watching though.

Just don't watch the Bad News Bears Go to Japan, it's terrible. In terms of better baseball movies I've got to give Eight Men Out and 61* some love.

Both great movies.  Especially 61*.  

 

"For love of the game" is chick flick wrapped in a baseball movie but I just really like Kevin Costner as an actor so it's worth it for me.  And he's a BAMF in Yellowstone also.
