Default Field of Dreams... cringey?

Just watching this again for the first time in years. Boy, it's pretty cringe-inducing in spots.

It was sad how some idiot drove around in the field(Dyersville Iowa) when it was wet and dug some deep trenches with their tires. From memory(mine is shot) it happened a couple months ago. The insanely high estimate to fix it was almost as bad.

Probably I'm in the minority here, but (speaking of just the movies) I always loved The Natural and never understand the fuss over Field of Dreams.

If you view it as a "baseball movie," you might be missing the point.

May be a minority opinion but you're not alone. I agree with you.

I must say I did have a magical experience at the Field of Dreams some 20 or so years ago. I was visiting my wife's family in Des Moines and since it was our last free day, we decided to make the 3+ hour drive to the field in Dyersville. We were in a driving rainstorm for most of the way, but as we pulled up to the field, the rain stopped. We got out and played some catch, and I was able to park one into the left field corn. Just then the skies darkened, and the deluge began again. Magic...................... Oh and the movie is special to me, as wifey is from Iowa, and I am from Massachusetts (Fenway anyone?)
