    Some tech notes (NOT Widescreen), 2008-08-15
Okay, so Little Big League is a cute movie. You know, for kids!
br /
br /But because I'm a filmmaker and I was an extra in it, I just wanted to mention some details about the DVD. This refers to the less-expensive 2005 Warner Home Video with the hinged snap case (UPC #053939273021).
br /
br /Note that it is NOT Widescreen as the current Amazon information says. It is FULL SCREEN, modified to fit your regular ol' TV. Letterbox might scare the kiddies, I guess.
br /
br /This version contains the following extras:
br /
br /1. Cast Crew - just a list of the top 6 actors, and the producers, writers and director (no info)
br /2. Let's Play Ball! - baseball tips and trivia that you access by clicking on little players in a picture
br /3. Behind the Scenes - 5 minute studio promo
br /4. Theatrical Trailer - also Full Screen
br /
br /The other version has the featurette and trailer, too, not sure about the trivia. So it looks like they are identical; just get the cheaper one.

    Wonderful baseball movie, 2008-02-18
Little Big League is the story of Billy Heywood, a kid born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and a grandfather who owns the Minnnesota Twins. He's constantly around his grandfather because he has a single mother, and as a result, he lives, breaths, eats, and sleeps baseball. Unfortunately for Billy, his grandfather dies. On the bright side, little Billy inherits the Twins.
br /
br /With his first major decision as an owner, after briefly trying out a hard-nosed manager currently with the team, Billy names himself manager and coach. The move is met with justified criticism and skepticism. After all, he's a teenager who has shown nothing, and has not moved up the coaching chain. And, at first, the nay-sayers appear to be correct, as Billy has difficulty balancing time between popping zits, playing Nintendo, and MANAGING A MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL TEAM. The concept is so ridiculous that it's not even worth mentioning; just go with it because it's fun.
br /
br /Well, the team sucks, sucked before Billy became manager, and nothing has changed. The team blames their new precocious manager. Afterall, how can a team relate to a kid who has never had a beer, chased a woman, or driven a car?
br /
br /Billy's infectious attitude eventually wins the team over, getting the team to play for fun and love of the game - a novel concept for today's athletes who think anything under 10million per year is an insult. Naturally, the hijinks and winning ensues, and the team makes a run for the playoffs. Along the way, Billy learns how to manage a baseball team, as well as the responsibilities of growing up.
br /
br /This is a great movie, very fun and entertaining. Perfect for a father-son movie night.
