Simply one of the greatest movies ever made. Genuinely a top 10 contender. >nostalgia goggles I’ve watched this many times as an adult and it holds up. Great cast and great book adaptation. Louis Sachar was heavily involved in helping make this movie as good as it isDon’t care if you called me retarded or consider this “Disney Slop” this is a fucking incredibly based movie.

>>217484218I remember doing the same thing with the sequel after picking it up at a book fair and being really mad it wasn't the same sort of story at all.
>>217485255WELL THATS TOO DAMN BAD
