I always feel a tinge of loyalty to the people I went to high school with, for whom it was a beloved childhood classic watched many times over, and hailed with delight when it was wheeled into the classroom as study-hall filler at the end of the year or after the PSATs or whatever the occasion was for devoting school time to a "fun" movie. Not having grown up with it I've never been able to quite love it, but I do think there's some neat stuff to look at. Feels like it'd be the most fun with a big audience - it crops up as an outdoor summer movie pretty often and I think that makes sense, but it's also a cool choice in this series.

Yeah, saw it a few years back. It's very good, very clearly his breakout film, but a bit less personal than a lot of what he did otherwise.
