Thank you for the explanation. I have never seen that movie.

It’s worth a watch!

Exciting_Agent3901@reddit

Yeah it might have been in 1995. Probably not do much for me now.

You’re bringing a lot of negativity to a conversation you started to avoid googling something.

Great. I don’t give a flying fuck what your opinion of my experience with this movie is. Sorry if I don’t think I’d like a 30 year old movie made for fucking teenagers when I’m 47.

Jimmy_cracked_corn@reddit (OP)

Not cool, bro. We were teenagers when this came out. It’s great nostalgia for us, don’t be rude. Be better.

You seem like a really fun, pleasant person. <3

Jimmy_cracked_corn@reddit (OP)

Meh, give it a shot. The worse that could happen is you don’t like it 🙂

Rex Manning is a pop music icon. Or, kind of a douche, depending on the source.

Im often perplexed by why I, a 15yo dude, found Liv Tyler sexier when she was clothed, rather than undressed. However, this was not the case in the Aerosmith Crazy video.

A fun film. Not everything has to be a masterpiece to be enjoyed. I still watchvthis occasionally and Im. In my 50s

My adult kids love this movie too. They all got their own copy when they moved out.

Made a Rex Manning Day reference in my 90s coming-of-age flick, too! Some people got it! LOL

Love this movie and adore the soundtrack. Not a huge fan of the REMIX cut. Prefer the theatrical.

[-]

Jimmy_cracked_corn@reddit (OP)

Remix? Are you referring to the limited edition? That had some deleted scenes added back in that should’ve been in the theatrical release, I felt; really completed some story lines.

[-]

Filmmakernick@reddit

Yeah. It was marketed as "the Remix Edition" when I got it. Much like the extended edition of That Thing You Do, I just prefer the theatrical cut. It's cool both editions exist!

Speaking of more scenes, T2 has an extended director cut that is better than the theatrical version, if you haven't seen it.

Jimmy_cracked_corn@reddit (OP)

Ooooooo!! Thanks for that, I’ll add it to the list! Cheers!

The peak “ hey we put together a soundtrack, now we have to attach a movie to it” movie.

90s media synergy at its finest.

This movie got trashed way more than it deserved. It was a perfectly fine movie for the genre. I enjoyed it as a teen. Many enjoyed it once it came to video and cable. I think critics have to trash random movies to justify their positions as critics.
