Field of Dreams - People Will Come

[LYinKansas]

people will come ray... people will most definately come

[tiefsa]

I need James Earl Jones to read my "Pitchers and Catchers Report Baseball Poem."

[shane8109]

Why can't they make movies with good stories anymore?  Love this movie

[neelantra]

yeah a whole basball come back from the dead to play for the crowd. bloody ridiculous

[TG1212able]

@neelantra The team came back to play for themselves, for the joy of playing the game you dumb motherfucker. And its called the World Series because initially the championship game was played in a different country every year. Either way, I hope you rip your asshole and slowly bleed to death. What kind of piece of shit looks up a video on youtube just to bitch about it?

[neelantra]

@TG1212able gay ass american shit. world series? how the hell is this a world series? what countries bother to put together a baseball team?

[neelantra]

what a stupid movie, total and utter bullshit, a complete and utterly ridiculous frabrication.

[MrTheatregeek123]

@neelantra it doesn't have to make sense...it just has to entertain and inspire people. So please, keep your hateful comments to yourself. People who like this movie don't care to see such blather.

[neelantra]

@MrTheatregeek123 it's typically stupid american movie bullshit. Like I said, a baseball team pops out of a corn field to play for people, and the repetition of a ridiculous line 'people will come' dickhead, 'people will come'. Besides basball is a shit game, hardly any nations play it. can't call it a world series when a handful of countries play this crap.

[chiggero]

@neelantra Lmao, you wouldn't understand, as you're obviously not American... go back to soccer, lol!

[TheAJR1990]

this makes me miss playing baseball and watching it in person...the smell of a glove held to your face, the sound of the crack of the bat hitting the ball the ball hitting your glove just right, hearing the sound of the dirt shuffling around when you slide into a base or run around the bases, and also the smell of the freshly cut grass on a warm summers day...im a huge football guy too so this is kinda weird for me to say.

[neelantra]

@TheAJR1990 the sound of the ump shouting 'strike three' and walking your ass back to the bleachers.

[DemiGodofDreams]

i came an then i went

[viikidavikingful]

if you build it they will come... probrably...

[TheBuddah80]

Awsome speech

[pointmocker]

When I die, I want James Earl Jones to narrate my eulogy...but prefer to have it in the Darth Vader voice. A guy can dream, can't he?

[JamesTheDrummerToonk]

"I'll beat you with this crowbar and then you'll go away"

[Madman007]

"Baseball has marked the time. It reminds us that all that once was good and could be again." THE most perfect words about the greatest game ever spoken!

[livewirevirginia]

get rid of the dh, the wild cards, go back to two divisional system. make the pitchers take less than 15 seconds to throw the damn ball, legalize the spitball, and put Shoeless Joe in the Hall of Fame. then maybe we ll make this game the way it used to be

[jackpark7927]

I once thought that a lot of what Jones says in the scene should be put on brass plaques at every Major League ballpark....it was not long after the Steroid controversy rocked the sport, tainting the likes of McGwire, Sosa, others.

[birdandthe]

@MsGoodfella24 well, that sounds like a death threat to me, if i report you to youtube you will be banned, so how about a grovelling apology ?

[TAKTV123]

@leafyutube it's about angels playing baseball.....i don;t think its true

[leafyutube]

Is this a true story?

[LiteSwitch100]

i usually dont like sports movies but this movie.. i just loved it. exspecially the music in it..i cried ( certain music just hits that note in me, you know?) and everything it was a great movie:)

[mdsftx]

@birdandthe Then get out your home videos and watch those for two hours. That'll do it.

[birdandthe]

i would rather watch a slug moving for two hours.

[fosterslover]

@birdandthe

No one's forcing you to watch it :|

[Cagedguitarist401]

This one speech alone shows why James Earl Jones is so much more than the voice of Darth Vader.

[lakindo1]

If you hate this movie, you hate America, apple pie, puppies, babies, summer nights on the back porch with a cold glass of lemonade. And baseball.

[birdandthe]

@lakindo1 No, i just hate baseball and american football.

[LiteSwitch100]

@lakindo1 YEAH!!:P

[Stooop69]

amazing speech.

[mrAnothernumber]

James Earl Jones's voice could make anyone cum.

[natureboyinyourface]

don't just sit on your ass waiting for things to happen,you better get out there & make them happen.

[mdsftx]

Nice video. It is obvious that "birdandthe" is either: 1) angry at his life, 2) anti-American, or 3) had no relationship with his father who never played ball with him.

Whatever the reason for such bitter "drivel" as he puts it, there is one thing of which I am sure. He can't spell. In trying to sound educated by using words like "drivel" and "vacuous", he shows his lack of education by misspelling a simple word like nonsense.  Let's hope he finds a reason for living.

[birdandthe]

@mdsftx Americans cannot tell the difference between speeches and reality.

[sunsetblues319]

I can't imagine a more perfectly delivered speech than this. As far as I'm concerned, this was a career defining moment for James Earl Jones, more even than anything he said in Star Wars.

[birdandthe]

WHAT A COLOSSAL PILE OF DRIVEL

[thisfieldthisgame]

it reminds us of all that once was good and it could BE AGAIN!

[reivenlocke]

"If you build it, they will come."

The inventor of the Fleshlight heard the same voice.

[Fanik10]

PEACE, LOVE, DOPE!!!

[Airsoftcleaner]

Phil Alden Robinson should have had a simple dedication at the beginning, It should have went quote "Dedicated to those who love and cherish The National Pastime".

[Brood98]

I cried ;_;

MANLY TEARS.

[Abobojo]

I feel like I AM IN magic waters..every time I hear this speech!!

[RDarth]

I sense something, a presence I've not felt since...baseball.

[craigcraigycrag]

i didnt know Drth Vader liked baseball lol

[goldendome10383]

Beat 'em Bucs

[MrGoldmember777]

I wouldn't pay $20 to go and see Kevin Costners baseball field. However I would pay $20 to visit Waterworld.

[phillycop77]

PITCHERS AND CATCHERS TOMORROW!!! GO PHILS!!!!!

[PsySwitch1983]

Fuck you and your American capitalist ideolgy.

Whole thing is revolved around making money and making people think they enjoy a boring game. 

[BOBOFETT100]

Best Speach Of All Time.

PEOPLE WILL COME RAY...PEOPLE WILL COME

[collinskraig]

good lord i cant wait for opening day GO REDS!!!!

[CanadianGuitarist]

@collinskraig You have the same last name as me, my ex is from Cincy, and Joey Votto is from about an hour from me. If you don't deserve a thumbs-up, no Youtube comment ever does.

[1legomaster]

I cried when i first saw this movie. Its a great movie.

[GeorgiaKev]

@1legomaster I did too...."Hey--Dad? Wanna have Catch?" 

I felt I could have flown out of the theater that afternoon in June 1989.

[steviejpullthru]

this speech goes way past baseball, its talks about life in general

[elbriano1000]

What is it about baseball that gives us all a good feeling inside of us? Is it the crack of the bat and the cheer of the crowd or is it tossing a ball around with your dad in the backyard after the final pitch has long since been thrown. fantastic movie, fantastic speech, fantastic.....

[tehBLAX]

cant u upload a vid..

[sportzbabe0901]

HEY GUISE IT'S DARTH VADER!!!!!

[dms0627]

you have to have played this game as a kid to understand how much this is true

[09Chance]

I live in Iowa and have visited the Field of Dreams. It's a magical place.

[dobromo]

I think this IS among the greatest of movie speeches, but today as I watched it, I suddenly noticed that it wasn't ABOUT baseball, but was manifest through baseball. The dreams were sort of about baseball, but the total climax of the film, I think was in this line, "It reminds us of all that was once good, and could be again." Ray's dream was to be able to play that game of catch with his dad. Great movie...great comments.

[mindadventurer]

fantastic movie. just seeing this clip reminds my of my childhood and keeping a transitor radio under my pillow (i would tune in stations all over the country late at night). :)

[Eyegore560]

Every single time I hear this speech, or watch this scene, I'm reminded that deep down, I really do like baseball.

[scootigger]

@Eyegore560

yeah, me, too. even though basketball is my sport of choice.

[CanadianGuitarist]

Being Canadian, I don't think I can entirely appreciate the mystique of the United States and its love of baseball (Canada and hockey is apples to oranges). Now having said that: the pure soul of baseball, the passion of this film's cast (and all of you who have posted), and my own personal enjoyment of baseball, along with my relationship with my father - this movie gives me both tears, goosebumps, and smiles every single time I watch.

[mdutchmdutch]

@CanadianGuitarist Hope you find and read W.P. Kinsella's "Shoeless Joe", the complete basis for this whole movie. BONUS: He's Canadian!

[wilhelm1974]

this movie gets me everytime

[mapwall]

Bobby Thomson has joined the boys. RIP.

awww. :C

[cwhitfield1138]

why cant we see the actual movie?

[MikeDuthlerFilm]

I just got back from a public speaking with the director of this film. It was interesting. Some guy who worked with the filming was in the audience, as was one of the women who was actually in a car at the end of the film. Pretty cool stuff.

[jhlgl]

i get goosebumbs evertime i hear this

[PositiveLastAction]

It's a wonderful film...the story is corny, the adaptation is flimsy at best, the acting is simply egregious...but somehow remains a masterpiece.

[dropwatch7]

@PositiveLastAction

What you just said makes no sense. I get what you're trying to say, but it still doesn't make any sense.

[bronxboy1952]

It is probably the best speech within a movie. If baseball means anything to you and you ever had a catch with your dad, you know how this movie can affect you. It is so, so great! "It reminds us of all that once was good, and could be again". So great, so true!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

[amarkk7]

This just motivated me to watch my favorite movie of all time, Field of Dreams

[AndrewKFletcher]

My all time favourite film

[Iteachu2beninja]

So is this supposed to convince me to buy the lot? Fat chance.

[marianita400]

still gives me goose bumps

[busterdog321]

"Hey dad? You wanna have a catch"?

[wasteland70]

Damn, I wish I could talk to my father.

[Starlightlovesongs27]

Pg. 138! What a book so far! Keep reading!

[AbhiB]

The still pictures are the next best thing

[1976chrisc]

I hear this and think of Ernie Harwell.

[mp4401]

negro

[gentledoc]

I love this movie, this field and the state of Iowa....thank you Marsha for making my dream come true. I will always love you!

[thespotteddog]

If there is a better line in movie history than "it is money they have, and peace they lack", I haven't heard it yet.

[JumpinJesuits]

first movie I ever openly cried watching. LOVE IT.

[Starlightlovesongs27]

I believe in the American Dream !

[Starlightlovesongs27]

I am speechless ...

[Starlightlovesongs27]

Omg... Field of dreams... Omg... Watch the movie... Omg...

[silverstag67]

This perfectly describes baseball. The beauty and magic of the game. The way it makes you feel. The freshly cut grass. Sound of gloves popping as the ball smacks in the pocket of the ball. the crack of the bat. "The one constant through all the years Ray, has been baseball".

Baseball is magic.

[agordon121977]

I agree with Merle. Great speech.

[AquaMan2342]

This speech/scene puts tears in my eyes every time. I love baseball.

[WesMantooth73]

This film and scene are among the most powerful moments in cinematic history.

[jc2140]

Great speech from a great movie - and let's give author W.P. Kinsella credit here, it was his book, Shoeless Joe Comes to Iowa that the movie was based on. Video here nicely done, but at 1:45 the shot of an aluminum bat on artificial turf, as James Earl Jones intones that baseball is 'part of our past'? Baseball's past includes wooden bats and real grass. So an A-minus. Thanks for posting.

[Merle24]

@jc2140 I totally agree about the aluminum bat and artificial turf, I just don't feel like remaking the video! :)

[Abobojo]

@Merle24 lol I hear ya-GREAT speech though!

[wasteland70]

@jc2140 I'm not even a baseball fan. I love this flilm for personal reasons, but I agree with you. Where's the wooden bat and real grass?

[wasteland70]

@jc2140 I'm not even a baseball fan, though I love the movie because it's about fathers and sons and innocence and belief. I, too, noticed the aluminum bat and artificial turf.....what the heck?

[Abobojo]

@jc2140 hate to say it-but I have to agee. I'd rather have seen a Lousiville Slugger

[TacoBellManager]

@jc2140 Aluminum bats and turf are also part of the game, in college. And in high school. Baseball is nine players on a diamond 90 feet square, three strikes, three outs, one batter. The equipment is secondary.

Some of my fondest memories came as a scared freshman with my pinky curled over the knob of an aluminum bat, because that's the way Mantle held his.

[kaylagrace118]

@jc2140 how could you say that? it was so touching you can't even notice anything else except the poetic words... the beautiful language. he says it so well

[nelsonabaa]

@jc2140 how very anal



[toddxedge]

Goose bumps every time I watch this movie. Simply amazing, stunning and makes me love the game even more than I already do every day.

[ezfla]

all sports are cool..but Baseball is the greatest!

[Snapper4298]

Well, I'm a Limey...and I'm gonna go...

Wonderful game, wonderful film, wonderful country.

God Bless America...God Bless Baseball

[shimerian]

Detroit Tigers fan. James Earl Jones fan.

Don't sell, Ray.

[italianny23]

this movie shows WHY and HOW baseball is our national pastime!

[heoko]

@italianny23 Baseball is why the terrorists want to kill us, because it sucks that bad. I can understand why people would want to hate america for its freedom, because it your free to enjoy watching people play baseball or football, while you sit on your ass, you must be insane

[Nick4Elliott]

@heoko I'm trying to understand what you're trying to say, but your poor writing has obscured your point.

[birdandthe]

@italianny23 IT MATCHES THE SHALLOW CHILDISH VACUOUS NONESENSE OF THE BORED AMERICAN MIND.

[Snapper4298]

A grateful Limey would just like to say thank you.

[sritger]

James Earl Jones...the world's greatest living voice!

[SCoop923]

udda nonsense dawg  -mike francesa

[upwit13]

Lets Go YANKEES!!!! REPEAT CHAMPS (hopefully)

[jessedowns]

Baseball will mark the time now more than ever. Forget the Bigs, go AAA!

[PadraikKasier]

Darth Vader really loves baseball.

[jacry1]

1992 world champs and again in 93.  GO Jays

[DrewAmante]

Billykid, your wrong. People could see the field of dreams. Hello, did u watch the end of the movie? Those lights were cars.

[obiwanobiwan13]

Closer and closer to Pitchers and Catchers report...

It's not easy, rooting for my team, breaking my heart year after year, and me living in California... but it's a new day, a new year, a new decade, so, PLEASE-

LET'S GO METS!

(And this is such a good monologue... this more than any other moment on film shows why baseball, good, bad, ugly, Mets, Yankees, Cubs or whatever- baseball isn't just America's Pstime... it IS America!)

[thisfieldthisgame]

@obiwanobiwan13 I guess baseball is more than a sport, more than the feeling of freedom and childhood, more than a perfect summer (pastime-) game, and even more than America. Baseball is Life, and represents life more than every other sport, for the reason of life ( in my opinion ) is to make it back Home.

[thisfieldthisgame]

Back to where we came from. Homerun! And I believe this home, everyone of us is longing for, can only be God. Because we come from him, but as we all know, life is difficult and seductif and sometimes we really lose it and forget what`s important, where we came from, and where we`re going. So I think every single one of us is on his way home, so we`re all somewhere in the Outfield now..

[billykid84]

I always thought it would have been somewhat awkward for Kevin Costner ("Ray") to explain at the end of the movie to Terry Mann's father, after he came looking for his son for the SECOND time, "Uh, yeah... your son disappeared into my cornfield"... Ya think Ray might have been arrested for the suspicious disappearance??? Oh well, at least he would have had a credible story...

[av6162]

44 days to Arizona. Pitchers and Catchers report. Go SF Giants!!!

[11giants11]

Hell yeah.... good to see a giants fan. GO GIANTS!!!

[mikejones3rfs]

the new york giants are the real giants

[schwab1218]

45 days until pitchers and catchers report, Go Crew!

[Merle24]

Hell yeah, Go Crew!!!

[Tykell]

AHH BASEBALL!

[diztanguy]

darth vader talking

[niikodas]

do you know baseball is the only game where the defense controls the ball, what a great game the canadians invented .

[JJheadcharge]

Cricket anyone?

[garfrain]

brilliant comment

[deltafoverdeltax]

FOOTBALL

[spareaxe]

Who wrote this part?

[Merle24]

no idea, but it is perhaps one of the best movie speeches of all time!

[Terramax]

@Merle24

without doubt!

[brock2001]

@spareaxe W.P. Kinsella, almost 100% copied from the book "Shoeless Joe"

[mdutchmdutch]

@spareaxe... Find and read W. P. Kinsella's "Shoeless Joe", the book behind this movie. Epic.

[sheemobile]

Baseball reminded us of all that once was good, and that it could be again

[BJZnRPZ]

one of the greatest movie speeches of all time

[JAF1970]

(sob)
