What American Pie Tells Us About the Power of Nostalgia

On April 6th, 2012 American Reunion was released in theaters and was a modest success. At this time it’s the last true film in the franchise and it will most likely remain that way.
The American Pie franchise is both a collection of films that reignited what was believed to be a dead genre while also being a problematic film in a variety of ways.
Teen Flick enthusiast Matt Kelly breaks down what it is about this franchise that makes so many millennials (including himself) more forgiving to these films than almost any other poorly-aged film and how nostalgia has the power to put blinders on us sometimes.
