oh and during my college days I would keep the tv on MTV just about 24/7 if only to catch a glimpse of Duff or Daisy.

Or attention.

I remember the movie as a kid but don't recall the scene. I certainly don't recall anything me or my parents found 'disturbing' about the movie...and I came from a household that was stricter than most on movies.

The date sequence is definitely something you wouldn't see today. But as someone from the generation that grew up watching Squints kiss Wendy Peffercorn...I don't quite see the outrage. Especially when you consider some of the things put in kids movies today, including Disney.

Well, duh. Of course it's for attention. I actually don't see any outrage here, it's more WTF.

And come on! This is NOT comparable to Sandlot. Bro it's the head turn. She turns her head when she goes in for the kiss. Homegirl is a CREEPER.

It's also a much larger age gap.

I remember seeing some dingbats trying to say Squints abused Wendy a few years back, but it didn't gain any traction with sane people.

i bet that the relative sex of the two parties plays an influence in how you view it.

a 30's ish dude kissing a 10 year old girl would play much worse than the reverse we see in the movie. but why?

Yeah that'd be pitchforks for sure.

Pretty sketchy as-is too. As a kid we were upset he didn't try to slip her some tongue so I guess we're not ones to talk.

Speaking of which... back to Sandlot.

We got the kiss shot on the first take and we were about to move on when Chauncey goes, 'Dave, I think I can do that better. Can we do that again?' I look at Marley and she laughs and goes, 'Yeah. We can do it one more time.'"

For anyone in Austin who wants to see the house, it's 1415 Wooldridge Dr. Owned by filmmaker Robert Rodriguez and it used to be where Tarantino would stay whenever visiting Austin.

Wow... I don't remember this, at all. Gotta say, that was cringe-worthy watching it as an adult. As a 12-year-old boy, I would have been all about it!
