The most excellent baseball blog Hardball Cooperative just posted their Top List of Baseball Flicks. I had a hand in contributing in the article so definitely check it out.
In their poll of contributors, Bull Durham eked out Field of Dreams for best baseball movie. For my part, I chose Baseball: A Film by Ken Burns as my fave and did a short review of it.
And whatâs a best baseball movie list without a list of âbadâ baseball movies? HC didnât drop the ball and presents us with their panelsâ list of âworstâ baseball movies. ClichĂ©s, stereotypes and over-used plots are the norm here. My choice? Major League: Back to the Minors (aka Major League 3). I have to admit the âbadâ movie list is an entertaining read. Check out the article (including my review of ML:BTTM).
Thanks to James Bailey of Hardball Cooperative for affording me the opportunity to participate in the project. It was fun.
