I Do Indeed Want Some, It's True

.
I hadn't bothered watching the trailer for Richard Linklater's new movie -- Peter Travers at Rolling Stone calls it "Dazed and Confused meets the 80s!" because Peters Travers is a hack who just states facts and gets quoted on movie trailers! - called Everybody Wants Some because 1) Have I mentioned it often enough in the past two days that I am very busy?, and 2) I finally realized with Boyhood, after far too long of trying, that Richard Linklater's movies kind of just aren't for me. His most atypical film Bernie is my favorite; otherwise his genial chatterbox thing tends to bore or grate. Anyway that was all before I read the headline at Vulture that this movie looks like "a gay porn without the sex." I ain't too busy for that!

And then I remembered -- oh yeah this is the movie starring Tyler Hoechlin and Glen Powell and Ryan Guzman and a bunch of other very attractive young actors. Damn you, Richard Linklater! You sucked me in again. What do you guys think? And hit the jump for a few more caps from the certifiably Catalina-ish trailer (with lots of Tyler Hoechlin in short shorts, yo)...

I got really excited at the idea of a gay actor being cast in a major movie by a prominent Hollywood director but then I realized most people still think Tyler Hoechlin is straight. :/

Wow, that looks like a seriously stupid movie...that I eagerly look forward to seeing for its plethora of attractive young actors.

Pass. Tired of gay baiting, stupid pussy hound movies about frat assholes and fucking pot heads. I got enough of this shit in the 90s and 2000s.

I see. Linklater directed, and Ryan Murphy must have done the casting. This works for me.
