Today I saw Everybody Wants Some. Pretty much what you expect from it. I did laugh out loud a bunch of times. It is not over the top bawdy or gross, fair depiction of people and places. Much like Dazed and Confused, it's not trying to tell you a whole life story, it covers 3 days, I think, that's it. I really hate 70s fashion and hair. It is set 1980, but that is really just late 70s wrt both of those things.
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

I treated myself to the Blu-Ray of Antman today. I missed seeing it in theaters because of my pregnancy, but I figured I wanted to see it before I see Captain America: Civil War. Hopefully I'll have time to watch it this week.

I saw it today too, msbelle. Fun romp overall.
Reconciling those fashions with all the sex people were having is only possible via the prevalence of drugs in the late 70s/early 80s. If the women hadn't been stoned, there wouldn't have been a Generation X.

Hey, we thought we looked great. See what people think of your looks in 40 years.

I already think my hair and clothes from the 70s were awful. Ditto much of the 80s.

I'm pretty sure every era has its share of bad hair. The man perms of the 70s were an abomination, f'rinstance. But the 80s did hair no favors either.

I think it's safe to say the 70s will hold the awful hair and clothes title for the foreseeable future.
However, I do approve of Hoechlin in belly shirts and short shorts so tight I could have taken his pulse if I had a watch.

I approve of most things Hoechlin. In this, Matt, we are as one. I hope this leads to more of a career for him.

It might—even if Linklater isn't known for box office success, it is pretty prestigious to work with him. And Hoechlin's got another indie college baseball player movie floating out there somewhere, so he might carve out his own niche—if there's one sport Hollywood loves to make movies about...
I think Glen Powell is probably the actor who will benefit most from being in the movie, though.
