Which film was released first, The Living Desert or Angels in the Outfield?
Angels in the Outfield (1994 film) Angels in the Outfield is a 1994 American family sports fantasy comedy film that is a remake of the 1951 film of the same name. The film stars Danny Glover, Tony Danza and Christopher Lloyd (the two latter actors previously worked together on "Taxi"), and features several future stars, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt (in the lead), Adrien Brody, Matthew McConaughey, and Neal McDonough. It spawned two direct-to-video sequels, "Angels in the Endzone" and "Angels in the Infield".

This film features a fictional playoff race that never would have been played out in real life.
They Live They Live is a 1988 American satirical science fiction action horror film written and directed by John Carpenter. The film stars Roddy Piper, Keith David, and Meg Foster.

"They Live" is based on the 1963 short story, "Eight O'Clock in the Morning" by Ray Nelson.
