The Sandlot 2 - Little League Showdown
It's the summer of '72 and a new gang of boys has discovered the Sandlot. They can't wait to swing bats and steal bases in the dugout all summer long - until they realize that a group of girls want to play ball there too! After reluctantly agreeing to let the girls join their gang, friendships form, rivals result and first love blossoms between David (Max Lloyd-Jones) and Hayley (Samantha Burton), the leaders of both groups. In the midst of all this is little Johnnie Smalls (James Willson), who's more interested in rockets than baseball. When he stumbles across an amazing model rocket one afternoon, he accidentally sets it off. It sails over the fence and into the backyard of Mr. Mertle (played by James Earl Jones), the owner of a ferocious dog that supposedly eats kids!The Sandlot 2 - Houston, We Have a Problem
The Sandlot kids now have to get the rocket back before any of their parents notice, but how can they do that without running into the insane mutt that's known as The Big Fear? At first, their wacky methods of trying to retrieve the rocket are funny, but it soon gets tiring to watch one failed attempt after another. Will the gang successfully conquer the crazy beast that's laid claim to their rocket, or will they have to walk away with their heads hanging low?The Sandlot 2 - DVD Features
