I don't remember The Simpsons referencing this, but Family Guy definitely did.

I figured Simone would like Wesley Crusher being in this lol, but it's also one of those movies I never get sick of. Gets me in the feels though now, reminds me of my best friend, he's gone, way too young, but we had fun back in the day, me and the güero, he even kind of looked like River Phoenix haha. And man, no matter where we were we made it an adventure, even Saturday detention, or when they made us go to church and we wore our favorite metal t-shirts, sometimes we got in some trouble, but we always had fun. Miss that fucker, really do. Anyway, we're here for movies and although River Phoenix died extremely young, he did have a short but great career, Explorers is a forgotten gem, he was younger than in this one and you also get a super young Ethan Hawke too, The Mosquito Coast is Harrison Ford like you've never seen, Sneakers is great, you'd like that I think, My Own Private Idaho is peculiar and awesome, early Keanu, and there are a few more he was just amazing in. And since Kiefer Sutherland and Casey Siemaszko are both in this, I have to remind you guys of Young Guns, a lot of Western purists hate it, but it's a good time in my opinion, the sequel too.

There's a second Stephen King/John Cusack movie: 1408. It's fun. And a third but Cell is awful (the book is great though)

the soundtrack to this movie is GOLD 🙏

Damn Simone you have a great singing voice

This is one of those classics that I've never seen all the way through but somehow know a ton of parts. Finally watching it today with you guys. Thanks!

Oh wow, what a great reaction, you two. I adore this movie, and I'm so glad you did too. I think you guys missed what was going on with Vern under the porch. I get it, Simone was freaked, thinking he found a dead body under it, but while she was reacting to that, older Gordie (Dryfuss) was narrating what happened. He said Vern buried a jar of pennies under the porch where his older brother (one of Ace's gang guys) couldn't find it. He drew a map, and then later, his mother was cleaning his room and threw out the map. In the scene where Vern is under the porch and hears two of the gang talking about having found Ray Brower (the kid who got hit by the train and died and they later found him), Vern was digging for his pennies. That's why if you go back and watch the scene again, you can see there are holes all around him. That's what Vern keeps referring to when he talks about not having found his pennies yet. Honestly, I'm not sure how that tagline ever worked. It doesn't seem to make for a very good hook. It doesn't tell you anything interesting about the film or give even a hint as to the tone. Which turns out to be a good thing, because you go in blind, but how did it suck people into going to see it? I dunno. As to the smoking, this was set in the 50s. Almost everyone smoked back then, and there was no age law. Or if there was, no one enforced it. I grew up in the 80s, and I was smoking by the time I was 13. One year older than Gordie, and no one cared. It was pretty normal. That phrase you're referring to George, "It happened to a friend of a friend of mine." I'm glad I looked it up first, because I kept thinking it was from the kid's show Are You Afraid of the Dark, which, if I remember it as well as I think I do, was similar to Goosebumps, the show Simone mentioned and thought the phrase was from. It turns out, the line is from Freaky Stories, a sort of similar show that, each episode, had an anthology of three stories per ep. I can't recall if I ever watched that one, but I vaguely remember hearing of it. I've read the story The Body a few times, but I can't recall if it explained why Ace is like that. I never felt like it's something that needed to be explained while watching the film, but now that George asked, it would be interesting to know. If anyone knows, please tell us. George, I think you only asked Simone and not us, but I'll tell you anyway. If I could have one smell follow me around forever, I would choose buttered popcorn. I love that smell. Again, great reaction.

I had a feeling you would enjoy this one :) Your reactions to some scenes, like each of the boys crying scenes, were exactly as I thought they would be! As for not noticing the name at the beginning, I honestly think that's by design, because so many people, myself included, forget the name in the paper before we meet the character Chris Chambers. I think the intention from the writer/director is for the viewer to have the exact reaction George did, the "Oh! the newspaper in the beginning!" reaction. When I suggested this movie I did once mention it was a Stephen King adaptation, but in your intro at the beginning I was glad to hear you were unaware of that. I think the fact you knew so little about the movie gave for a better viewing experience. When I noticed you hadn't reacted to this already, I just assumed you must have seen it. It feels like a movie you would have reacted to when your channel was new! I'm glad you got to watch it for the channel though :) Great movie, for any demographic, but I really think it's a great movie for boys that age, it's relatable and it has some beautiful lessons.

Simone has a good singing voice

Hey nice reaction to a legendary film of the 80s. Another King’s work with John Cusack is 1408(2007). As I grew up in the late 80s watching where each were taking turns guarding the camp was normal, simply friends guarding friends. Also I don’t have anything about the ‘moons & goochers’ scene.

🖤I'll just say what everyone else is thinking. The soundtrack for this movie f***s. Soundtrack playlist added to Spotify? Check!

The friendships in Stand By Me are so beautiful, and remind me a lot of me and my friends at that age. Nowadays, people are not allowed to be friends in movies anymore. they insist on calling each other "family". And i prefer friendships to familyships.

Because you liked River Phoenix so much in this, it might be interesting for you guys to react to the 1986 Peter Weir movie THE MOSQUITO COAST. I don't believe anyone has ever done it before. (It's not exactly a popcorn movie.) It stars Harrison Ford in a *very* different role from his norm, and Phoenix co-stars. (I believe this and "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" are the only times they've both been in the same movie. In Mosquito Coast, they actually get to have scenes together.)

This is my canon of only five perfect movies. You done 3 so far.

lemon party doesn’t have to do with urine. It’s just three old guys “enjoying each other’s company”…

Jacob King

Another good River Phœnix movie to react to would be Sneakers. The Lost Boys is Corey Feldman and Kiefer Sutherland at their absolute peak. The book that had this story also had The Shawshank Redemption, I’m not a huge King fan but when he gets it right he gets really gets it right. If you’re interested in how bad mental health treatment was in the 1950s it is worth googling the Montreal Experiments.

I wasn't of this era, but it wasn't completely different in the early 80's, when I would have been this age with my friends. The gun thing would have been totally taboo here in states as well, at least among my friends, and had one of our parents found out we had one, they would have totally freaked out. That said, I know grown men now, who grew up hunting on their own at 13 years-old here in the mid-western US, and that was normal in rural culture. I hope you don't suffer the normal influx of arguments in the comments, every time guns are mentioned.

I haven't seen the "Simpsons" cartoon parody of Stand By Me, but I have seen the "Clerks" cartoon parody of Stand By Me.

Simone: "Adventuring in the woods with your friends looks like so much fun! Except for the train, and the leeches, and the coyotes, and that gun, and the bullies, and the dead body, and..." :-D

It’s eerie that River Phoenix died young, just like Chris did. Rolling Stone did a great oral history on this movie for its 30th anniversary and those kids really were very tight for that shoot. Corey Feldman said that he heard River was in trouble a couple of months before he died, and he’d just gotten out of rehab himself, and he called River up and basically said, “I’m out of the country right now, but when I come home let’s get together and figure out how to get you some help,” but River died before they could meet. Fucking tragic. I know you guys have gotten a lot of River Phoenix suggestions, and I dig them, especially Sneakers and The Mosquito Coast, but there is an INCREDIBLE film called Running on Empty, one of my favorites, that I think is his best performance. No one remembers it and certainly no one reacts to it, so it may not be right for the channel, but if you get the chance to watch it on your own, absolutely do so. It is legit one of the purest, most beautiful movies I’ve ever seen.

Ok I didn't start your movie reaction yet but I have to say, I'm with Simone with the cat song 🤣 And there's nothing like coffee smell especially in the morning, and orange blossoms 🥰 (everybody is talking about the movie so I try to diversify the conversation because the intro was also very interesting 😁). So yes, this story (1982) was written before "It" (1986). Stephen King wrote a lot of stories with kids, horrible bullies and stupid adults who don't understand what's going on or are just mean (a reflection of their imagination gone as opposite to the kids maybe?). A lot of us could easily identify to that in the 80's, a "safer" time where kids were constantly outside without supervision, and when some bad things could happen that we never told our parents so we wouldn't loose this freedom. Maybe that's why so many people who grew up then read so many of his books, and the main thing that makes S.King's stories so good is not so much the horror factor, but how his characters are depicted and how familiar they feel. Stranger Things was also very inspired by King's books, and not only "It" that people re-descovered recently.

The Body did come out before It. It was part of a four story anthology called Different Seasons and it was the summer story. It was released in 1982. It would come out about four years later, I think.

The thing with guns, it really depends where you live. Now and especially back then when this movie was set, if you saw someone openly carrying a firearm on the streets of say Philadelphia or its suburbs, you’d call the police. But there are other parts of Pennsylvania that school students get off (officially or not) for the first day of hunting season to go hunting. I think that has changed in recent years though, with the date being changed. Not a hunter so I don’t pay attention to it.
