I thought it was a fun summer comedy but didn’t realize it was mostly a spoof like Naked Gun or Airplane.

I enjoyed it regardless but it was a bit different than what I expected.

There's another very obvious summertime coming of age movie that nobody has listed, but I don't want you to get mad at me for posting too many movie titles.

It rhymes with:

Wasn't the horror movie IT a summer movie? I seem to remember a lot of sunny-day lake swimming by the kids. Probably goes for a lot of the camp-centered slasher movies & camp-comedies, too.

I'm pretty sure E.T. doesn't qualify as it was around Halloween bc the kids & ET dressed up in costumes trick or treating and also were wearing hoodies/layered jackets on the bike flight.

You’re right. I was remembering them riding bikes and throwing the baseball but I think Elliot does go to school and some of it takes place during Halloween.

Edit: I asked Snapchat AI and it said the movie takes place during the summer, so idk

ET is definitely Halloween. It’s a major point in the movie.

Elliot fakes being sick to stay home with ET
Elliot goes to school and let’s the frogs escape
The kids dress up for Halloween and put a sheet over ET and the mom thinks it’s Drew Barrymore.




Edit: I think the confusion is that it came out during the summer and is always listed on the Summer Blockbuster list.

I’ll throw another one out since I think it’s not too popular.

American Pie 2

Teenagers rent a lake house after their first year of college and have fun for the summer.
