Everybody Wants Dull
Dazed And Confused was chock full of well-written interesting and funny varied characters, good and bad, that you actually cared about and felt like you were hanging out with. In every scene, there was something engaging that occurred that propelled the narrative forward, kept your interest going and brought you closer to their world. Everybody Wants Some was just a group of uninteresting jocks (looking like they were in their mid to late 30s for some reason) plopped into a picture-perfect 80s setting, reading what sounded like a rough outline of a script. No natural dialogue, just stilted conversation that sounded almost like a high school play. I wished Linklater spent half as much time on the script as he did getting the look of the film right.
