best summer movies?


this is next on my netflix que, though i've never seen it. however, since summer's almost here i'm trying to watch films that get you into the "summer mood" so to speak and i hear this is a great one, does anyone have any other suggestions?

'summer rental' with john candy is another good one...

I was just going over this with my friends, as we do an outside movie night every Wednesday.
The summer is all about Nostalgia sometimes, like what movie I watched every day in the summer when I had no school and then others just make you think of heat and summer.

The Sandlot, Independence Day, Speed, Bad News Bears, Radio Flyer, Jaws, Stand By Me, The Last Star Fighter, a Time To Kill

Summer School is another great one.

Even if these fireworks turn into stars
Even if our love disappears into darkness

"Roxanne" has gotta be one and not just cos its my all time fave movie but its shown in sunny scenic locations and is a feel good movie and just feels very much like a summer movie.And "Police Academy 5:Assignment miami beach" is another good summer movie too.

That's a great list of movies you have there. A lot of them are nostalgic for me too.

Poorly Lived and Poorly Died, Poorly Buried and No One Cried

Club Dread is quite good for a summer movie

One crazy summer

I like that one.

Also Summer Rental is good, but is very similar to One Crazy Summer.
Vacation.
Good Burger (was set in summer but not exactly a summer film).

On Golden Pond seems kinda the odd one out on that list though its still a great movie.

Poorly Lived and Poorly Died, Poorly Buried and No One Cried

Not really summer movie, but you might be interested in Blame it on Rio.

Poorly Lived and Poorly Died, Poorly Buried and No One Cried

National lampoons Loaded Weapon 1

Original Vacation, Vegas Vacation

Oceans 11-13


So: a realistic, down to earth show..which is completely off the wall swarming with magic robots?!
