Moneyball: You're A Good Egg (Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill) 4K HD Clip | With Captions

“How can you not be Romantic about baseball?” As a lukewarm fan of baseball, and a top fan of cinema, this film is an absolute Gem. Fantastic writing, performances, and production all around. This was such a great movie.

[@louisliu5638]

Like college debate; it's virtually impossible to be "in the moment" for so many of the scenes I viewed (and participated in) in University . You had or have to be there "in the moment". and it's really hard to get that impact on camera. This does it.

Baseball transfers onto the big screen really well for some reason.

[@davidroberts6549]

We ( by which I mean the cricket playing nations ) are exactly the same. These sports lend themselves to so many different ways to appreciate them. And there are so many variables in terms of playing styles, conditions, form, state of play..they're almost infinite. And then there's the history and the quirkiness of the rules etc etc etc etc...

[@johnnymonkeyballs3437]

His fear was not that he couldn’t hit a homer, it was that he might hit anything but a homer. Big guy was scared of having to run the bases and get thrown out from deep or fall! The beauty is that his worst fear came true and he thought he got thrown out from deep because he fell. He was afraid of being laughed at and probably thought he was, but instead everyone was cheering for him. Beautiful moment achieved.

[@crowtcameron]

"He hit a home run and he didn't even realize it." This film actually changed my life. Specifically the scene when Peter shows Billy the footage of the guy hitting the home run and not knowing it. At the time, I was living in Oregon. I had moved there and it was my first time living on my own away from home. I was trying something totally different and taking a chance. I lived there for over a year and I liked it a lot there but, for several reasons, it wasn't working out. I wanted to leave Oregon but I was afraid that by doing so I would be giving up. I was afraid of being seen as a failure and feeling like a failure. I felt I didn't succeed in my hopes and goals. But then I saw Moneyball and I decided to move and I saw everything in all that in a different way. The film made me realize that I had done something I had never done and I had changed and grown a lot. It was not a failure but a victory. Like Billy in the film, I had hit a home run and didn't realize it. And I felt pride and satisfaction in that journey in my life . And this film made me see that. I've seen many films in my life but Moneyball is up there with the ones that had the most impact on me.

The relationship between Billy and Pete has always been incredible to me. Two people considered outsiders push each other to greatness because they care so much about each other and the dream they share. How can you not love it?

[@LetsJamFunk]

This scene may end the film after all the major plot events are over, but as I re-watch it, I've noticed its significance. Not just because of the video, but also subtle things in the screenplay to show how the paradigm has shifted: - Peter throws a baseball at Billy while he's unaware. A young guy catching a veteran off-guard with "new baseball." - When Billy meets Peter in Cleveland, Billy assertively pushes and probes an unconfident Peter for information (what he told Mark Shapiro to make him reject Billy). Now Peter can assertively push an unconfident Billy for info (what Boston offered him). - In the trade deadline scene, Billy is giving Peter advice about what matters and what doesn't. Now Peter is giving Billy this type of advice: "it's what the money says." - This is the only scene where Peter makes the point to Billy and Peter has the last word. There's a major changing of the guards happening here and without noticing the subtleties, we're like Billy himself - not realising it.

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

Fantastic analysis. Shows you how Peter proving the point Billy isn’t just about Billy learning the moral about what they’ve done so far, but that the way that this scene climaxes Peter’s arc in all these subtle moments. Never would’ve noticed it. But I think as an audience it feels so great as a final scene even when we don’t realise these subtle details, the fact that its there when u look for it, but regardless of whether you notice it or no it the audience can tell when work has been put into the screenplay like this. Its the invisible hand of moviemaking sometimes.

[@constantchan8807]

This scene is just so powerful. No dramatic background music, no explosions, no over-the-top facial expressions, just dialogues and silence. Yet the emotions and power it contains hit much deeper. This is gold.

[@CERTAIND00M]

You forgot the _click-clack_ of the analog replay equipment each time they start and stop the tape. It's so minor but, like the room tone itself, so vital to conveying that weighty "silence" which envelopes the scene.

[@franciscoahumada1688]

Don't get it, why would there be explosions in a baseball movie?

[@tristanchase2887]

​ @francisco ahumada They're referring to movies generally that rely on things like explosions, sound fx or over-acting in order to carry a scene or get a reaction from the audience, whereas here, what those films are trying to force or create with more, this scene effortlessly achieves with less. The simplicity of 2 guys sitting in a quiet room watching a video of someone hitting a home run, with minimal dialogue, along with a teenage girls amateur recording of a song for her dad, manages to convey in it’s own-right (but especially in the context of the story) more depth, emotion, power & audience connection than all the Transformers films combined. 
 Because it’s all a metaphor. The Oakland Athletics are Jeremy Brown, the pitch is the game of baseball. Both Brown and the Athletics thought they had failed. Both of them didn't realise the impact they had on the game - Jeremy Brown hitting a homer and giving his team a point, and the Oakland Athletics changing the way baseball is looked at and played. Finally the song is a reminder of what’s important in life and what his daughter is really saying to him is more valuable than all the money in the world, which is when you’re told that he stayed, and even if you already knew that, now you feel like you know why, and the audience is reminded that winning and success can be measured in many different ways, just like how baseball players can be. -ROLL CREDITS-

[@BLUEPELICAN234]

Just goes to show dialogue beats any sort of action. Especially as you get older. The real magic in film is just how natural it can feel and money ball is a perfect representation of that. Just raw performances and dialogue that makes you feel like you’re in the room with them.

“Your such a loser Dad” is a line that reflects that while they ultimately did not win using their methods, there is great honour in defeat. They changed the game, they challenged the norm and stood by their beliefs. That is far more important than anything.

For those who don't get the metaphor: Billy Beane (Brad Pitt's character) is the batsman. They both took risks doing something they normally wouldn't - the batsman rounded first base, and Billy tried to completely reinvent baseball. The batsman trips and falls, which is the equivalent of Billy's championship loss, and in that moment all his worst fears come true. He's a failure and everyone is laughing. But then the batsman realises that he hit a home run, which is Pete's whole point - Billy might have lost the championship, but he succeeded in reinventing baseball, and now every major team is tearing apart their roster and rebuilding using Moneyball. Moneyball is Billy's home run.

Because his goal was to change the game and he "didn't even realize" that he did. When they lost, people still criticized that "moneyball" was still a sham and sabermetrics didn't fully set in right away

[@smokedbrisket3033]

Because at that level, every single person in the organization is ultra-competitive and wants to win it all, believes with every fiber of their being they can and will win it all. If early on the morning of 26 January 1986, you had asked the New England Patriots players and coaches if they thought they were going to beat the Chicago Bears in the Super Bowl later that day, to a man they'd have all answered, not just "yes" but "HELL YES." And they proceeded to get their asses handed to them in one of the most lopsided losses in Super Bowl history, losing by 36 points. In 50+ years of Super Bowls, only the 49ers 55-10 win over the Denver Broncos was more lopsided. And the Broncos players and coaches thought they were going to win that one, too. Lose by 1 or 50, it's a crushing disappointment. It was a funny line in "Talladega Nights," but the view is largely "if you ain't first, you're last." Because almost nobody ever remembers who came in 2nd place, just like they don't remember who came in dead last.

Lowkey one of the best and funniest characters Jonah Hill has played.

Getting Brad Pitt to portray you in a movie is way more exclusive than a World Series. Billy Beane really did knock it out of the park without knowing it

[@w.c.orielly9059]

im actually fighting back the tears... the HUMAN experience is beautifully complex and poignantly complicated........ this was a GREAT FILM! and acted FANTASTICALLY... EVERYONE!!!!!ALLOF THEM!!!!!!! but Brad and Jonah are OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!! ty for posting!!!!!

I like that little, hapless shrug with his arms that the power hitter made when he realized.

Unlikely that it will happen but anything can happen in Baseball. I would love to see them win it all, too. A new owner with more money to spare would help a lot in that regard.

I've watched this clip several times. I was in a hotel and this movie was on and I wasn't really interested but I started kinda watching between messing around with my phone. It was late, somewhere around 2:30-3:30 in the morning. (some might consider that 'early') By the time the September 4, 2002 game with the Oakland Athletics vs. the Kansas City Royals came on and it hit Royals 11 Oakland 11 I couldn't stand it anymore. I HAD to look up the score on my phone. Wow, what a movie. BTW, the hotel I was in is in Kansas City. I'm a Royals fan, but I was rooting for the Oakland A's as I'm watching this historic game (September 4, 2002). I would like to meet Jeremy Brown and shake his hand. What a wonderful moment when he thinks he's failed miserably and he had hit a home run. I realize it's re-enacted but I hope in real life the other team's players were as gracious as the guys in the scene. I looked and Jeremy hit .300 in 10 AB for the Oakland Athletics. He lasted less than a month in MLB but he will forever be known for this amazingly heartwarming scene. God bless ya Jeremy; don't ever give up.

[@t-virus7098]

The clipping of that baseball player (sorry, I'm new to baseball) of hitting a home run, but is so blinded by his view of himself that he can't see that the grass is green is simply beautiful.

I'm a brit with basically no interest in sports, let alone baseball. And yet this movie is one of my absolute favourites

[@jaewok5G]

as a Red Sox fan since childhood, they won the last game of the season in 2004 with Johnny Damon in CF, Kevin "the Greek God of Walks" Youkilis at 1B, and started the season with Jeremy Giambi, another player I forget now and a deadpull hitter the twins had given up on named David Ortiz _platooning_ at DH-1B w Youk. They had Pedro, Shilling, and knuckleballing machine Tim Wakefield too, but you get the point. see also; "4 Days in October"

Even if this guy hasn't won a World Cup the fact that his story was made into film is a win by itself.

I've watched a few sports movies, not all by any means, and I haven't been a baseball fan since I was a kid, but this has to be one of, if not the best sports movie made. The life lessons are just as good as the movie.

[@Calabrin1]

I feel like a lot of people are down on this movie, either because they just didn’t think it was good, or because they’re ignorant and don’t understand that Moneyball literally took over baseball - that the math nerds won - but honestly, every scene is this film is so compelling. So well written and acted. You can put on any one of a dozen scenes from this film, and they’re just captivating. It’s such a well done film. Yes, the story and the facts are a little muddled. They didn’t include everything that they should have (like failing to mention the draft, or that Oakland had all-stars at 3B and SS, AND occupying the top-3 spots in their rotation). But putting that stuff aside, what’s here is still such a good, if heavily pared-down story.

[@dongeorge4037]

I finally got around to reading the book. There's so much more detail of course. And the story of Jeremy Brown and his home run was even more wonderful in the book than it was in the movie. How can you not be romantic about baseball?

"How could you not feel romantic about baseball?" That's exactly how I feel about it when watching baseball movies. Beautiful sport. As soon as I try to watch a real game I fall asleep though.

[@tmingshiulh]

In the book "Moneyball" they explained the A's were interested in Jeremy Brown because he was a monster at getting on base than even Scott Hatteberg. So it's kind of funny the movie plays off this moment as he just sort of hit a home run and didn't know about it.

[@Polthys]

I don't even watch baseball (I'm European), but I loved every bit of this movie and what it represents. I come back once every now and then to watch some of these clips because the writing is just that good. Love it!

Titan helping Metroman figure out he hit a home run without the realization from Metroman and Metroman calling Titan a good egg Metroman: your a good egg Fun fact: @ 5:27 when Metroman was lying down on the grass since he was clearing his head, I did the exact same thing by lying down on my bed last year on June 13, 2023 when the Vegas Golden Knights became the Stanley Cup Champions against the Florida Panthers in Game 5 since I was trying to gather my emotions and mainly since I was joyfully happy and mainly since I am Brad Pitt 😉

What about the opposing players giving him butt slaps and chearing him on? That's what we call sportsmanship, and it's a thing of beauty.
