Jon Savage recommended American Graffiti (1973) in Movies (curated)

American Graffiti (1973)
1973 | Comedy, Drama

"A total classic from George Lucas, pre Star Wars. It's the start of pop culture going retro, as it created a whole kind of rock & roll revival with records being reissued and that double LP soundtrack being released. It's the past informing the present so it's important in terms of pop culture and teen films. It influenced a couple of other movies that we're going to talk about later. And I love the music – 'I Only Have Eyes For You' and all those tunes. Fantastic."

Fantastic end to the trilogy
Fantastic ending to the trilogy. Poetic justice is served and all loose ends are tied. Brown leaves you satisfied but still hungry for Iron Gold.

Psych is full of pop culture references, buddy comedy, drama, and suspense. It is one of my favorite TV shows. There are many references only Psych-o's may get (PINEAPPLE!). It's definitely worth binging multiple times over!

Not a great book to film translation, but as a standalone look at VR and retro gaming it ticks many boxes, just don't read the book first!
