The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training The Bad News Bears In Breaking Training is the comic and poignant second-in-the-series of adventures with the pint-sized sandlot ballplayers initiated with the smash success, The Bad News Bears. The picture picks up the Bears’ career a year after their infamous second-place finish in the North Valley League. Faced with a chance to play the Houston Toros for a shot at the Japanese champs, they devise a way to get Texas to play at the famed Astrodome. On their pilgrimage to Houston, the Bears gain a new coach; dump that coach; add a new pitcher who can’t get his fastball over the plate; find another coach who shows him how it’s done, and go on to a come-back victory with all eyes on Japan.
Customer Review: The best baseball movie for the young viewers.
Not that long ago before today’s little league baseball players dreamed of one day joining the majors because of the 10 to 20 million dollars they could make in a year (yes,a year!),there was this movie,The Bad News Bears in breaking training. What I enjoyed about this movie was that it was one of those classic baseball movies that could never be remade today. After watching this movie back in the day,we all dreamed of having our little league team play in what was at the time a baseball stadium like no other….The Houston Astrodome. In this 2nd chapter of the Bad News Bears trilogy,the San Fernando Valley-based team is given the opportunity to play in an exhibition game vs the home town Toros in the Astrodome. Having abandoned their coach,the coachless team heads to the lonestar state in hopes of living every young ball player’s dream while team leader Kelly pursues the opportunity to reunite with his father,played by William Devane. Watching this movie makes you realizes how much the game has changed for the worse considering this movie was made as recent as the late 1970’s. Today,young ball players are doing steroids,major league stars are putting money over fans as their top priority,and teams are threatening to move to other cities if their demands for a new ballpark are not met. Had I told someone in 1977 that this was the future of little league and major league baseball,would they believe me? If you want your young ones to see a great baseball movie full of young but true role models,then get this dvd. Oh,by the way,if you are wondering why I believe this movie could not be remade today,think about this……with all the new stadiums we have seen built in the last 15 years,it would be hard to argue why one stadium should be picked over all the others as the location of filming. Play Ball!!!!!!
