Thoughts on this ?
I never had friends or an actual childhood so most of its lost on me.
>>69103716
Classic /tv/
>>69103694
Real friendships even between children are much more Machiavellian and less intimate than this movie implies.
>>69103694
A film women will never understand.
I didn't get it. Especially not the "and then they all died" part.
>>69103837
Are you a woman?
>>69104051
I don't even understand it. I'm not a normalfag
>>69104092
No, just self aware you dumb normie.
>>69104139
You sound like a bitter loser or actual sociopath.
Never got those people who had no friends as children.
>>69104229
Ikr, should've just been themselves
>>69104262
And also not ugly
>>69103694
>that cast
Has there ever been such a great movie where the actors ended up so
>JUST
>>69104229
Same, separating yourself from people when you get older is understandable. How do you not know how to make friends when you're fucking ten?, or not want to?
Anyway stand by me is a classic for people over 25 in England.
>>69104312
Most kids and people in general are ugly, that's no excuse. You hang around with the ugly kids if you have to.
GOAT
>>69103694
Pretty good, a tad overrated.
I love it, one of my favorite films.
Unlike most of /tv/ I had a relatively non-autistic childhood and can relate to the movie a lot.
>>69103837
>never has experienced real friendships in his life
>somehow thinks of himself as an authority on the subject of "real friendships"
okay
>>69104692
Same. Brought me back to the times when we'd run miles out into the woods and hunt for monsters and werewolves. Kids can't really do that these days
Why is late 50s/early 60s such a magic time?
Not even being "le wrong generation" but these coming-of-age movies set in the era, like this, Hearts in Atlantis, Flipped make me really nostalgic for a time I never experienced.
How can you take wil's performance seriously knowing he grew up to be such a cuckold?
>>69103694
The 25th Anniversary Edition is a great edition.
>>69104899
because the white patriarchy was still in power
>>69103694
One of the best bildungskino of all time
>>69103694
ASCENSION!
MILLENIUM!
>>69104354
Ironically the fat guy has come out of it the best
Superior coming-of-age kino coming thru.You're racist if you don't agree
Would River do capeshit if he was alive?
How did he turn into such a beta cuck?
>>69104899
Because that's the age when the people who write these things were children. Thus when they write nostalgia, they write about their own childhoods.
When you're old and having your midlife crisis, you'll set your nostalgia stories back in the 90s or the 00s, or whenever you were a child and "everything was good."
>>69107028
No.
He'd be doing cocaine.
>>69106858
He sure has. He put two babies in Rebecca Romijn.
>>69106987
I'm not a thug raised in a ghetto so I can't relate to anything in this movie.
>>69106987
I'm not a racist criminal with a violent personality disorder, so I can't relate to anything in this movie.
with shashank redemption the best stephen king movie, shining is a whole other deal though.
Heard they're making a game of it

>>69107696
There's also a disney remake in production

>>69104899
Mostly because America was 90% white. Now it's 65%.
>>69107289
It's not relatable to you because you're a racist criminal with an autism spectrum disorder
>>69108045
>Now it's 65%.
You're being a little optimistic there, friend.
Maybe you forgot to take into account all of the illegal wall hoppers and half breeds.
>>69108142
>white knighting criminals just because of their skin colour
>>69107696
They really are except all the characters now wear gayass clothes
>>69104834
It makes me sad seeing the kids in this neighborhood not get to have that sort of childhood. The woods near my house was sold when I was in my late teens and the new owner fenced it off and has a security system for trespassing (and had about 60 years worth of forts and treehouses built by kids demolished). At least most still have backyards, but there's nothing like the childhood where you get to play in the woods.
>>69104899
It wasn't a magic time. The reason you think of it as a magic time is because the coming of age movies set in those areas are meant to be nostalgic, and are usually written by people who were children in those eras or based on books written by people who were children in those areas.

>>69108415
Buying a ps4 for this desu
GOAT because of the dynamic between the actors IRL
That's what made the film more visceral.
wtf do you mean "this"? why can't you just type out the title of the damn movie instead of just saying "this"?
>>69103694
not to be that guy, but the book is way better
>>69109143
it's in the image you autist
>>69109173
I can't look at images, I can only read text
>>69109186
that's not my probelm
>>69109213
but you have a solution
>>69109235
no I don't?
>>69109310
yes you do?
>>69109331
I can't help you see images?
>>69109350
But you can help me know what the image depicts?
>>69109365
the film OP is talking about
>>69109396
yes, exactly
>>69103716
>>69103837
>>69104727
he's right tho. I had a normal childhood along with tons of other kids, and (at least where we live) nobody was crying to each other, telling their feelings. every kid wanted to be manly, and try not to give a fuck
>>69109519
Then it what sense did you have real friends?
>>69104448
>or not want to?
I moved to a new place when I was like 9-10 and there was a long time where I stuck by myself because I didn't want to make new friends, I wanted my old friends "back home". Like, people tried to include me during recess at school and stuff and I just shied away. Until another new kid showed up and I'd given up the illusion of moving back. I could see singularly single-minded people just sticking with pushing-everyone-away tactic.
>>69109519
>dude I totally had friends
>we just never entrusted each-other with our deepest hopes, fears or thoughts at some point, because we were too afraid to lose the mask of manliness
They weren't proper friends, mate. Or you just had a really weak and shitty childhood without anything to share.
>such fresh faces and hope for the future
Where did things go wrong for Baby Boomers, the generation of Stand by Me?
>>69106987
But that's not Menace II Society.
>>69109769
>sharing feelings with friends
At what kind of faggot environment did you grow up in? where I live people would beat you up if you showed the slightest bit of emotion, sentimentality or intimacy.
>>69109826
Holy shit, Wolverine hair was a real thing?
>>69109826
They all look inbred, ugly and dumb.
>>69109826
Those skirts-coupled-with-sneakers really need to make a come-back.
>>69109869
sounds like you grew up in the faggot environment, buddy
>>69109869
Which part of the eastern bloc or Texas did you grow up in?
>>69109869
>>69109869
That sounds horrible, anon.
I can assure you that is not the norm.
I'm sorry you had to grow up in such a hostile environment.
Had one of the saddest endings I saw at the appropriate age.

>Have you met my friend? He's from the Ukraine.
Said no-one, ever. With good reason.
>>69110023
>mfw had this happen in my mid teens because I never wanted to drink or party.
>mfw it's happened again now in my early 20's
It's probably just part of life, that friends drift off.
>>69109826
This guy looks like a real handful.
>>69103837
Fuck no, they are animalistic as hell.
If you are part of the pack you are part of the pack. You got some defect you are an outcast.

>He was stabbed in the throat. He died, almost instantly.
>young me's face when first seeing that
>>69110183
I bet he stayed behind after the picture was take to sniff the seats.
>>69109826
The Greatest Generation had shitty childhoods and to make up for it turned their boomer kids into spoiled brats.
Best adaptation of a King story along with The Shawshank Redemption. Why does he bother with horror when he's much better with other types of fiction?
>>69108528
Born in 1989 here. Being a 90's kid was great. We rode bikes, fished, and played war with our Nerf guns. I even remember the time I opened a lemonade stand with the other neighborhood kids.
>>69110118
Seriously though how can you share your feelings with another guy when you're a kid, he'll just use it to laugh at you or fuck you up.
It is inconceivable to me that there are cultures where children do this.
>>69110267
>walked free from court
He went to court for bicycle-seat-sniffing? That seems rather excessive, really. Unless he's being a nuisance to people to do the sniffing, why bother to go further than laughing at him?
>>69109826
got beat up by their PTSD parents.
Nobody talked about it, though
>>69110472
By having an actual friend, not just some guy you meet some times at the borscht-factory and exchange a few words with.
It's inconceivable to me that there are cultures where children don't have friends.
>>69110703
>not just some guy you meet some times at the borscht-factory and exchange a few words with.
Well we also shoplifted and vandalized property together. That's what friends do... right?
>>69110762
I sure as fuck wouldn't do it with your "Friends". They sound like the type that's snitch on you as soon as it became profitable for them or they decided to fuck with you.
>>69104051
Funny, it was my favorite as a kid.
