Alright, time to explain my problems I now have with The Sandlot 2 and The Sandlot: Heading Home.

The Sandlot 2: Now when I was still a kid, we had the first Sandlot on VHS. It was then in 2005, my older sister went to K-Mart and saw The Sandlot 2 on DVD, and she wanted to buy it. Back in her stupid and immature days, and she wanted me to watch it with her. And so I did. I didn't think it was bad at first, but now today, it really is bad. Because there are tons of plot holes in it. First off, when did Mr. Myrtle build a junk sculpture for eight years when he's already been blind by getting hit by a baseball? Secondly, when did Scotty Smalls get a younger brother prior to this? It must have been his mother and his step father though, but it doesn't change that. And third, the movie is basically the same plot line as the first one! But instead, we get some more boys, but this time, we get girls. Oh, and BTW when did Hercules get puppies? Then wouldn't that make him a girl? And the dog in the film: "The Great Fear"? That's a poor excuse for a name of a dog. But I do like his name "Goliath". And the insult fight in the film is the same as the first one, especially with the "You play ball like a GIRL!!!!" monologue. And this offenses the girl characters. And as for the new characters, well.... they were forgettable. But the most interesting character in the whole film, was the Retriever. And is actually satisfies me that he is the son of David Mickey Evans. The director of the Sandlot. And I laughed when he was flung in the air and landed in Hayley's pool. And the actress who played Hayley in the film, was the only film she had ever acted in. Poor girl. So that's the main reason why I don't like the Sandlot 2 anymore.

Now, for The Sandlot: Heading Home: Now I got this on DVD back in Christmas 2007. And the film was not the same as the first one, and is not directed by David Mickey Evans. It's an original story, and it features the return of Chauncey Leopardi who played Squints. And Benny also returns in this film, but not by the same actor, but by Danny Nucci. And I didn't think it was that bad at first, but now it really doesn't hold up. And the bully in the movie, EJ is obviously the most cold-hearted and ruthless bully in the whole Sandlot trilogy. And yet to think, he was played by the guy who voiced Jimmy in Scary Godmother: The Revenge of Jimmy and Cato in the Hunger Games. And there's one scene in the movie that rips off Raiders of the Lost Ark. Heck, it also featured the Wilhelm scream.

So all in all, I'm not a huge fan to the other Sandlot movies. The first one is the true and only good film in the trilogy.
