14 Summer 2016 Films You Aren't Excited About (But Should Be)

14. Everybody Wants Some!!

Everybody Wants Some Richard Linklater
Paramount Pictures

Release Date: May 13th (UK)

On top of being a cult classic which introduced some future superstars to the world, Richard Linklater's 1993 movie Dazed and Confused also ranks as one of the greatest summer movies ever, following an ensemble of high school kids through an epic final day of school in 1976. This being so, it's only fair we should expect great things from Linklater's 'spiritual sequel.'

US readers will have already had the chance to see Everybody Wants Some!! by now, as it already went on theatrical release in March following the film's premiere at SXSW. Happily for UK readers, the word is it's very much a worthy successor to Dazed and Confused, but where that film took place on the last day of school, this 1980-set movie is set on the last day before school starts again, and centres on the players of a college baseball team.
