No, this one might be bias. No Wesley Snipes. I remember seeing it as a kid, getting really excited and no Wesley Snipes. It felt like a betrayall replacing his character with Omar Epps, so the film never really felt right to me.
Did they think we wouldn't notice? Just, make up a new character at that point, don't give us Epps and tell us it's Snipes.
OK, rant out of the way, the characters changed drastically from one to two and then... changed back. That was kind of the movie, that they changed and then changed back.
It was nice seeing MOST of the team together again, but you got the sense that in Major League, it was written as a love story so the people involved could actually see the Indians win. This feels more like a cash cow and not as much about the love of baseball as it is about over-the-top gags.
But, hey, Bob Uecker is pretty funny still, so.... there's that.
