Movie: Bad News Bears (2005)
Tagline: Disorganized. Disrespected. Dis summer.
Trivia: Despite the remake having a higher MPAA rating than the original (PG-13 verses PG), the ratings board would not allow the remake to feature Coach Morris Buttermaker drinking alcoholic beer in the dugout as he had in the original. Strangely enough the board was fine with him spiking his non-alcoholic beer with hard liquor.
Goofs: Revealing mistakes: In the final scene of the movie the camera pulls back to show the American flag blowing briskly in the wind, but all the trees behind the flag are perfectly still.
“Morris Buttermaker (Thornton), an alcoholic pest removal worker and former professional baseball player (for a very short time), is recruited to coach and train a failing baseball team of 12 year olds which is about to be thrown out of the league. ****SPOILER**** Although the team does not win the first place in the next championship, it does achieve a great comeback.
