As I was dropping my daughter off for summer school this morning I saw a teacher get out of his car in flip flops a t shirt and board shorts. Instantly reminded me of this movie and for some reason this video shows up in my recommended.

[@danbremer7010]

Hey bro. We need more sharting videos.

[@TheSharter]

@@danbremer7010 I was thinking the same thing. Been super busy filming the Tracy movie lately. Have the next couple weeks off so I'll get some done.

My dad (David L. Snyder) was the Production Designer on this movie! I went to visit the set when they shot the scene in the parking lot at the school ♥️ I’m going to send him a link to this

[@80sLife]

That is so awesome. Yes please do, I would love for him to see it. I know at least a few cast members have seen it so far.

Seeing that classroom was beyond amazing. I LOVE watching filming locations from my childhood movies, but I think this one's my favorite so far.

[@STEPHANTODD]

I was 12 years old when I saw this movie in the theaters and I'm 46 years old right now, just watched it yesterday on video, damn time flies!

It’s amazing how some stuff is exactly the same. 1987 was a lifetime ago. These are great videos. So sad how much the world has changed.

Great 80s summer movie RIP Kristie Alley

[@malfuncsean]

Great job man. This is one I had been considering doing myself for years. The location of the roller coaster is correct however at the time of filming it was called The Corkscrew named after it's corkscrew like double loop. This coaster closed in 1989 and was moved to Silverwood Park in Idaho where it is still operational today. So you can still ride the actual coaster from Summer School. Boomerang opened in it's place in 1990. Then that was torn down in 2017 and today it's a new coaster called Hang Time. Keep up the good work man.

[@80sLife]

Hey thanks man, I really appreciate it. Yeah I realized about the coaster shortly after I posted. I had totally forgot about corkscrew. Oh well, what can you do. Thanks so much for watching

[@chuckfan1]

Nit pick....

[@malfuncsean]

@@chuckfan1 Would have been a nit pick if maybe they had just changed the name of the roller coaster but it's a completely different coaster. The character Chainsaw even refers to the double loop in his dialogue while reviewing the coaster. So there is nit picking and there is just being wrong. I've made plenty of mistakes myself and when I'm wrong about something I want to be corrected and know the facts. His videos are mini history lessons and I believe he wants the history to be accurate.

[@ljinbs]

Yep, I worked at Knott's when this was filmed there. It was definitely the Corkscrew. And the parachute ride was called the Sky Jump.

[@juangambrinus3637]

Thank you so much for doing this movie. Summer school is one of my favorite gems from the 80s.

[@minniemae7638]

One of my favorite movies too! I used to work at Blockbuster and I remember renting this (for free) and the dubbing a copy for my VHS collection. Since I worked at Blockbuster, I was able to take home empty movie boxes so I got Summer School but put my dubbed version in the actual box.

they dont make them any way anymore. Superhero movie after superhero movie after superhero movie, extended universes of superhero movies, roadmaps for 20 years worth of superhero movies. That, or a shitty remakes of a much better movie that was released 30 years ago.

Dang it. You're absolutely right. It became Boomerang a couple years later.

Saw a double feature at a theatre in Sonoma County when I was 10. It was Summer School followed by Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. Interestingly, Gary Riley who played Dave in Summer School had a brief role as a thief in Planes... Love it when they prank the substitute. RIP Kirstie.

[@deebojones2777]

So great, man! I saw this movie in the theater when I was a kid. Neat to see that an old Fotomat building is still up an being used. They tore the Fotomat down in my hometown in NorCal in the late 90’s. Great vlog!

Going to watch it tonight. Have not seen it since probably the early 90s. I absolutely LOVE the detail you put into lining up the shots and showing key stuff that still exists. I know this is off topic but do you ever go to any old school BMX bike shows around your parts? When I was an 80s kid, Freestyle BMX was my life in about 1985 1986. Had a GT Pro Performer but sucked at doing tricks. Lol. Wasn't as big here (Oklahoma) as California.

[@80sLife]

Thanks I really appreciate that. No not really. My son has a Dyno that I built for him. I love and respect the BMX scene, but I definitely grew up more of a skater.

Amazing how untouched this school is. Looks like it hasn't been "updated" (ruined) at all in at least three decades. This kind of thing is so rare now and getting more rare every day. We have to enjoy and document these things while we still can. In another ten years they will all be gone, I fear.
