#tbrschmitt - Krátké a kreslené filmy
*"Heroes get remembered, but legends never die."*
- In my opinion one of the best and truest quotes in cinematic history.
Wow, is that what's this from? ..I thought it was from Zac Snyders "300" ..damn, all those naked chiseled men, body's rippling in slo-mo on the silver screen...
In one of the greatest movies
#2. "If my dog was as ugly as you, I'd shave his butt and teach em to walk backwards." - The Great Hambino
That's the best quote, but the 2nd best is you're killin me Smalls
I always find it hilarious when Samantha starts the video and introduces Mr Schmitt to a movie he hasn't seen 😂
Haha, I was coming here to say this 😂😂
The deeper "Helloooo" always makes me chuckle.
Facts it caught me off guard 😂
I have to admit I didn't catch that, I just thought it was great that they started taking turns introducing each other😉
Same.
Those kids did an outstanding job. Best child actors I have seen in a long time.
They're way up there. In my opinion, the Stand By Me and Goonies actors are perfect, but these kids are a VERY damn close second. 😊
some great quotes in this movie... "you´re killing me Small!" @@clevelandcbi
80s kids movies were just a bunch of old souls acting like kids..
@@StayFractalesqueThis was a 90’s Kid Movie though .. but I get your point.
@@shanice_a ..whoops.. duh.. I'm just projecting being born in the 80s I guess..
For kids of the 1990s (like me), there is no greater baseball movie than this coming-of-age tale.
Rookie of the year and angels In the outfield are a close second
A League of their Own is the only baseball film that I like more than The Sandlot, but it's close..
@@morbidangel2424awwww man Rookie of the Year, definitely another one I’d love them to react!
Sandlot is the best
@@morbidangel2424actually no, they’re not… They are far off from the Sandlot. Maybe Rookie of the Year, but definitely not Angels in the Outfield that is a completely forgotten movie
The truly special thing about this film is even when it first came out, even though I was only a child, it made me feel nostalgic for a time I’d never even lived in. It made me feel appreciative of having the ability to just go outside and play, and to appreciate the fact that I had no responsibilities yet; no mortgage, nobody relying on me, just being able to go out and do things I love. This film makes you feel nostalgia for a time you may never even have experienced, the same way the Smashing Pumpkins song “1979” does. It transcends its own era, and makes you step back and look at the big picture, no matter your age.
The good ones do. Stand By Me was that movie for me.
Couldn't agree more!!!
Well said, same here, it’s a wonderful Time Machine that takes us back to when we were kids
Great movies like great books will do that. They speak to everyone even if they are from a different time or different part of the world. Phenomenal stories will always tie us all together. All we have to do is love them and have a deep appreciation of them.
True, they’re great time machines
One of my favourite movies growing up. It is one of the best uses of kid logic I’ve ever seen. It’s not a baseball movie. It’s a movie about kids in the early 60s who play baseball. I love how early on, we think we know what “the beast” looks like, but when we see him for real, later on, he’s quite different. He’s just a big mastiff. Unless they’ve been abused, they’re big teddy bears. My Girl is another great film from this era, early 90s, this time set in the early 70s, and it’s highly underrated as well. It’s Macaulay Culkin’s best role IMHO. It’s another movie that captures childhood so well.
Same
He is really good in The Good Son.
It's probably a better summer-themed successor to _A Christmas Story_ than the actual sequel to the latter movie Bob Clark directed, in that regard, and most regards.
Mac was definitely one of the coolest kids ever in the history of cinema. His character in the Home Alone movies was epic. Seriously as a kid I was the real Kevin McCallister, Junior Healy and Dennis Mitchell. No joke the pranks and trouble I did was completely jaw-dropping.
My mom and I watched this when I was around 6/yo. I loved it so much. As a disabled kid, the idea of making friends and playing baseball was the ultimate dream. I lived vicariously through the movie.
I am a paraplegic and it was the same for me. Luckily, I was able to play basketball in my wheelchair and made friends that way.
I loved hearing both of your stories and it just proves the power of film to inspire you guys to reach out for more of life. Hopefully by sharing your stories other people can read this and take inspiration from you both. God bless you and thank you both for being kind enough to share what this movie means to you.
@@vincecommando7575 leave God out of it. As far as I'm concerned, it's your God that got me into this mess. I'd have preferred to have been aborted, but you religious nuts and humanists just have to try and save everyone.
Love this movie!
"You're killing me, Smalls!"
That is one every T shirt all over the world.
Oh yeah, I have a shirt says: LEGENDS NEVER DIE
Wanna give that last sentence another shot?
We could all use a friend like Benny in our lives.
Very true.
My favorite aspect of this movie as an adult, is the work that Benny puts in. 100% dedication to what he loves and what it takes to reach the pinnacle.
Yet he’s still considerate of the small guys who aren’t gonna go pro. I love how patient he is with Smalls.
He was the coolest kid ever to me when I was little lol
Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez was so cool to me.
Fun fact: He plays Luis Mendoza in D2: The Mighty Ducks. Reuniting with Brandon Quintin Adams who plays Jesse Hall. Brandon plays Kenny in this film.
"FOREVER, FOREVER" I grew up on this film just like so many others and till this day my friends and I still qoute the film. I'm glad Daniel is watching this!
Hell I'm 51 years old and I love this movie. When I ended up having children I Definitely had them watch this movie too. We use to watch it at least once a year
You should still try to make a point to do that once a year with your kids. I always try to watch certain movies with my kids a couple times a year as a way to get us all together. Sometimes you get that look from them. "God not this movie again". But hopefully when they get older they will love those memories. Who knows, they might be the same way with their kids. Some traditions should never fade away.
The 90's had so many good Baseball films for kids, The Sandlot, Rookie of the Year, Little Big League, and Angels in the Outfield. Loved them all!
You forgot "A League of Their Own"
Sandlot is my all time favorite
Yeah the 90's definitely a phenomenal time to be a kid and see so many kids in epic stories. Most of us could even see ourselves in those characters. So of us still do see ourselves in those characters the way we were back then.
@@prollins6443 well he said for kids not too many kids were itching to see dat flick
This is such a classic for the kids who grew up in the 90's, and still is. Definitely one of my favorite movies.
Sandlot is the stuff of legends. We all had that yard like that. Game balls enter and they never leave. -------- Our field was a soccer field and we played soccer every weekend for about a decade. --------- Memories of a life time.
I grew up in the late 70s and early 80s, when kids went outside to play and parents had a hard time getting them back in the house lol
Grew up in am apartment complex amd we had kids come and go amd played baseball in a small lot at in the complex. Was small and sometimes only had 4 on 4 teams.
Since the lot was small we had to make up our own rules amd like this movie we didn't have extra balls so we had to make sure to keep the safe.
Hit a foil ball in the woods to the right was an automatic out. Hit the side of the apartment building in center field was a home run, but land on the roof you were out becuase the ball would often get stuck on the roof and gone forever, amd other homemade rules. Waa great times
A childhood staple of mine (and many others). Even today, whenever I see The Sandlot playing, even if it's the dead of winter, I feel for at least a moment like it's summer again.
Yes! It's snowing outside but I forgot until I read your comment. For a few minutes there, it was just the fourth of July 😊
I really gotta say and I know I mentioned it before;you two are becoming excellent film critics and it very much sets you apart from a lot of reactors who are really just going with there reflexes and what their immediate response was. You guys deserve a lot of a credit as a throwback to when we had a handful of actually entertaining film critics who built there own following and really knew what they were talking about
Wow, thank you so much!
Is not even about knowing what you're talking about, but having an opinion and having an actual discussion afterwards. They say more than, 'it's good. I liked it. See you next week!'
I remember when they started out, she didn't talk much and I wasn't sure I'd keep watching. But the more comfortable they got, the more I enjoyed the channel.
@@TBRSchmitt:
*TBR Schmitt (You):* "So many iconic lines"
*DeNunez:* "Dat ain't true!"
*Me:* 🤣🤣🤣 What kind of edit is that??? 🤣🤣🤣
As someone who is 30 and grew up playing baseball my whole life this movie was everything. I’m just lucky enough to grow up at a time that kids actually understood this movie.
My favorite movie "speech" in history is James Earl Jones talking about baseball in Field of Dreams. The second I saw him in this, I immediately put it in my top 10. Also always wondered of he's a baseball fan.
Could be: he's done 3 baseball films that I know of.
Ah man, this movie was my childhood! That and "Little Giants" (another really cute nostalgic movie you guys might like)
I grew up with those movies , now i showed them to my daughters ,just last month we watched all 3 mighty ducks movies , watched the big green and few months ago we watched this one and little giants ,
Ice box!!!
Little Giants doesn’t hold a candle to the Sandlot. Almost no other kids sport movie comes close to Sandlot
@@nsasupporter7557 Agreed. Except maybe the Mighty Ducks movies.
@@willvr4 I think maybe Space Jam also… even though it’s not cherished as much as Sandlot. Do you remember the Big Green? That one was about soccer
Believe it or not, this movie is actually inspired by a real-life childhood experience of the director and narrator, David Mickey Evans. When he was a kid, his little brother, Scott, tried to play baseball with a group of bigger boys down the block, but they refused since he was little. But when the boys struck the ball over a brick wall, Scott thought he could win them over by getting it back for them. However, when he climbed over the wall, retrieved the ball, and tried to run back to the wall, he got bit badly in the thigh by a huge German Shepherd/Doberman mix dog named "Hercules". And even after that, the boys still refused to let Scott play with them.
That was my neighborhood growing up in the 60's. We lived in a new development a few miles out of town and had enough guys to make a team and play guys in town. We played ball anytime the sun was out, which was a lot. This movie brings back some great childhood memories for me.
“You’re killing me Smalls!” Is still used in my friend group to this day.😂
These Schmitt TBR mirror universe episodes are some of my favorite
Mirror universe episodes?
@@abramsullivan7764because Samantha starts the intro instead of Daniel
Everyone needs a friend like Benny.
"You're killin' me Smalls" has been a part of my lexicon since 1993.
34:53 "You're killing me Smalls" is easily the most iconic line.
To this day ESPN quotes it on their highlights whenever a player misses a catch.
The whole concept of the Beast was funny because they were shown it from the kid's perspective. The dog was bigger than it was even though Hercules was a bull mastiff Which are pretty big dogs, but they over exaggerated how big they were. That's what made it so funny
Samantha, I honestly love this format where you get to have hubby watch a movie you remember! Great classic movie and great reaction! This is going to be so fun for you guys to show you daughter when she gets older
Ive seen this movie 100x. I still watch it every single time, and I will F-O-R-E-V-E-R, F-O-R-E-V-E-R.... LOL
I loved watching this movie as kid over my grandparents. The music, the guys have just the best fun and of course the ever gorgeous Marley Shelton. Also the black and white footage of The Beast as a giant killer dog with dead white eyes gave me such insane nightmares.
Great reaction! Seeing Denis Leary in this as the step dad reminds me that you guys should react to "THE REF" this month! It's such a hidden gem of a Christmas Movie! So f**kin' funny!
The Ref is one of the all time great Christmas movies!
Absolutely, one of my favorite Christmas movies
This movie is T I M E L E S S ! No matter front to back or catching it after it's already started, or watching clips of it on YT, it's always smilecity. Such a fun movie, and you two sharing your watch of it together was extra fun on top. Thanks for sharing the good times 😆
Edit: SAM! _F O R - E - VER!_ One of the most quotable movies ever. My friends and I still drop Sandlot lines and everybody knows them.
I still quote lines from this movie all the time. Such a classic.
For some reason, I always thought Scottys step dad looked like him. I was like, “Are you sure that isn’t his real dad?” You know.
Of the many, many reasons I love this movie, one big one is that it is a movie about childhood that takes place in the 60s that does not have some random ass tragedy occur. It's just pure fun.
When Smalls is ready to pass out after losing the ball Squints fanned him with his glasses instead of his hat like everyone else. 😂🤓
This was such a big part of my childhood. Born in ‘86.. this was it though out the 90’s for me. Still love it.
Sad part is kids doing things like this is a thing of the past. I remember roaming around all over our neighborhood and woods surrounding it heading out as soon as I got home from school and not coming home till it was close to dark. Friends were either playing football, paintball in the woods, hide N seek/tag or doing juvenile delinquent stuff (did you know just a basic firecracker breaks a toilet?) Now days kids all look at their screen and barely know how to socialize. They make the main kid look like a social butterfly LOL
Love this movie. It reminds me of when I was a kid, and I'd go and play at my childhood friend Billie's house. We would play catch a lot and sometimes play baseball in his back yard. We were best friends, and even though we had a falling out in middle school, I always remember those good times when I had a best friend, a best friend who once told me he wished I was his brother.
I grew up right down the street from where they filmed this. The store where they bought the baseball was an iconic staple in Midvale Utah known as Vincent drug. They had penny candy, .29 cent hot dogs, rootbeer floats, toy models, and comic books, and of course a pharmacy. I was 8 or 9 when they were filming and I remember we all walked down to mainstreet to watch and we actually got to see them filming the kids coming out of the store after buying another baseball, talking shit to one another. I remember hearing one of them say "You couldn't catch a cold", but it never made it into the movie. They're standing outside the store at 6:25 (Back) and 12:43 (Front). This movie will always have a special place in my heart. Great reaction as always, friends!
A great movie that has crossed generations, I loved it as a 90s kid and my baby boomer dad even loved it because he could connect with being a kid in the early 1960s.
YOOOO THIS IS MY CHILDHOOD MOVIE RIGHT HERE LMAO
P.S. love the intro swap between the both of yall, it made for a good laugh and was refreshing 😂
P.S.S. the reason Babe Ruth taking the Hank Aaron card was shown in the film was because Hank Aaron was the man who would eventually brake Babe Ruth’s all time home run record of 714 home runs by hitting 715 in 1972 and of course nobody would know such a thing in 1962 haha
This movie captures something outside of baseball that I think was lost when the internet came around.
When I was growing up in the early 2000s the neighborhood kids all kinda knew each other and we would meet up in the neighborhood and play sports and hangout and just be kids together. It just feels like that will never change and then all of a sudden all your friends have moved on and just grown up just like you do as responsibilities and adult things start getting your attention.
I can't believe this is already 30 years old i was 10 the year this came out I'm 40 now but even if your not a sports fan you'll still enjoy this movie
Baseball isn’t my thing, but this gives me so much nostalgia
I was working construction jobs when this came out. "You're killin' me, Smalls!" became a catchphrase at work...lol✌️❤️
I used to watch this movie once a day when I was a kid. Such an amazing movie
I remember seeing this in the theater as a kid. Instant classic for me.
"Heroes get remembered, but legends never die." That quote always gave me chills as a kid.
Also, this film is a childhood classic for an entire generation of millennials, even if you're not into baseball.
Out of all the movies i saw ya’ll watch this one made me a little emotional lol, me and my older brother used to watch this over and over as kids. Watching you watch it was awesome, brought back so many memories.
Can't wait to watch. Love this movie so much.
It really is just pure fun for everybody, young or old.
The secret weapon shoes that Benny puts on PF Flyers, I wore them in elementary school, myself. I also have 2 pairs of them right now, made by New Balance. However, the original PF Flyers were made by B F Goodrich, the American tire company.
You’re killing me, Smalls! 😂
You're killing me Smalls! Best line of the movie, I even got a shirt that says it. LOL Love this movie!
Not only is this one of my favorite baseball movies(as a die hard afficniado for 55 years) but my 3 daughters love this movie as they've watched it many times.... Fun reaction guys😊
Iconic movie
You play ball like a girl savage line
Love it and love you both
Great reaction
Porter is my favorite character
"did you just call me a "jive turkey"?"- semi-pro same energy.
I hope it’s as enjoyable as an adult as it was a kid seeing for the first time. This was one of my childhood classics love it.
So glad you watched this. One of my fav childhood movies. Benny was my first crush as a child. I loved what a great protective friend Benny was. The kids were great
This movie is my childhood! One of the greatest Summer kids movies. There isn't a 90s kid that at some point doesn't quote "You're Killing Me Smalls". Another great 90s movie that yall would enjoy and is underrated is Three Wishes.
LOVED THIS REACTION!! The Sandlot was my top fave children's movie when I was a youngster.
Very cool seeing you both react to this. :D
I love the very end when Smalls looks over at the photo of all of them together.
Same year ( 93)
" Fire in The Sky"
With Robert Patrick ( T-1000 Terminator 2).
It's mind boggling how this amazing film fell under the radar. In 93 when I discovered Groundhog Day was sold out and opted to see it, and still talking about it!
This movie will always remind me of movie nights with my dad, miss you every day dad ❤
Ahhh a childhood classic. Baseball is life.
Hard To Believe It's Been 30 Years Since This Movie Came Out, Time Goes By 😊
One of my top 10 favorite movies! BEST line: "You mix your Wheaties with your momma's toe jam!"...LOL 😂😂
Tom Guiry, the kid who played Scotty Smalls in The Sandlot, also played Katie's boyfriend, Brendan Harris, in Mystic River.
Beat me to it. Obviously amazing actor, but him along with Benny the Jet have had some issues with the law as adults.
I seen this movie so many times as a kid. 90s were pretty great when came to kids movies.
This movie absolutely killed it about what it is to have a close group of friends that you spend summer's with. I instantly get thrown back to my own childhood.
This falls in the same category as ‘Princesses Bride’ and ‘Stand By Me’ in being a “Kids” movie but in reality it’s a damn near perfect movie for any age group…:)
Such a classic movie, one of the best baseball movies ever. I love that line, one of my top favorite lines ever. The Babe:
Remember, kid, there's heroes and there's legends. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. Follow your heart, kid, and you'll never go wrong.
This is one of my favorite films about coming of age.
Fun fact: the guy playing the older Benny his name is Pablo Vitar he is the actual brother of the younger character Benny - Mike Vitar - unfortunately his brother Pablo passed from Colon cancer.
My sister and me always say "You're killing me Smalls!' Whenever someone's being clueless. I love Patrick Renner's performance as Ham 😅 so many good lines.
in the same boat as far as deciding what movies we're looking forward to sharing with our daughter. it's an exciting thing to get to share.
I love how the story is told in a fantastical manner that a 10 year old would tell it!!
You're Killin' me Smalls!
You guys only mentioned it in passing, but congratulations on the baby!!! Did I miss a video where you announced it? That's such wonderful news. This one, it's great for the dialogue more than the plot, which I tend to think gets stupid, once the Babe Ruth ball goes over the fence, but a good 2/3rds of it is hella entertaining. The last 3rd, with all the gadget stuff, you're killing me, Smalls... ;-) Congratulations again!
A classic that I still enjoy. Such a wonderful film
Great review of a movie I love so much! It is set in 1962, and I was 10 that year, so it brings back so many memories of the small New England town I grew up in and all my friends. Our lives were all about sandlot baseball, pickup football games and our boy scout troop. Such a great time!
wendy peffercorn who is played by Marley Shelton, also played judy hicks (deweys partner) in the scream movies. which i just found that out a few days ago lol
You probably heard "She knows exactly what she's doing." from Paul Newman in "Cool Hand Luke" when they were watching Looceel washing the car.
I had such an aversion to Dip and Tequila for the longest time because of this movie.. ..but now I know those are some of life's greatest pleasures..
Love this movie. Grew up in Ogden, Utah as a child and swam in that pool all the time! Beautiful area.
Fireworks, hot dogs, and baseball on the 4th of July. That's America. They nailed it.
Grew up watching this movie, love it. Ya’ll should check out “Angels in the Outfield”
Thank you for watching this movie. You brought back such a great part of my childhood. I watched this so many times. In the words of the Great Hambino, "You're Killing Me Smalls."
The Sandlot is such a delight, it still puts such a big smile on my face after all these years
I loved the vise versa role of saying hello lmao I remember when I was a kid I thought this movie looked horrible. I went to a friends house and had to watch it because that is what they were doing. After that I loved this film lol such a classic. I met Patrick Rena the great Hambino lol very cool dude
The rival baseball team were probably on a school team on the rich side of town and they only would meet once a week. Benny's crew were out there everyday.
I grew up in the transition era right before cellphone (not smartphone) technology was handed to kids. We would spend all day outside in the sandlots, the woods, and parks doing whatever felt fun using our imagination and creativity.
The Sandlot is a certified banger. My childhood classic.
This movie WAS my childhood haha. There was a group of 6 of us and We would all skate to the park after school and play baseball. For hours. 3pm till sunset. We all loved this movie. Every day even on the weekends we usually wound finish chores by noon and eventually link up and go play. On Sundays after church we were all there no matter what. Eventually we all went separate ways only 4 of us are still alive today sadly. We’re all in our 30’s now and we try to get together once a year to catch up
Brothers playing both versions of Benny was awesome. Have to imagine that was a special experience for them as actors.
I lived on an Air Force Base from age 10-13 and my house was right across from a baseball field. I spent every summer with friends playing almost every day. I can totally relate to this movie. I miss those days like a desert misses rain.
Still one of my favorite childhood movies. I remember the vast majority of it, but I still find it interesting that even today, one part sticks with me in particular, as it made such an impression on my young mind. It’s the finale of the big chase. Between Benny’s clear exhaustion, the Beast’s unrelenting persistence, and especially the short sting of music, it remains one of the most nerve-wracking minutes in cinema for me.
You guys have to watch Son In Law with Pauly Shore - the redhead kid is in it, as well as the mom from Haunting of Hill House. It's SO much fun!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Don’t know why but I lost it on “Goddamnit Smalls”!!!
Its so much Fun watching this knowing the out Come.but watching first timers is priceless.
Thanks guys, this is just what I needed to help relax after a ridiculous weekend at work
I hope your week is better!
