Duncan is definitely the hero in this movie 🤟🏼😁 I LOVE IT WHEN HE PUTS HARDY IN "HIS PLACE!" 🔥

I'm in my 50's and I soooo love this movie and Elias Koteas is awesome 🥰

I was a junior at San Pedro High in 1987. I very fondly remember when they filmed this. My wife was an extra in the movie. She was captain of the drill team back then. The school looked exactly the same up until they started these renovations a couple years ago. Thanks for this video. What a flash back.

One of the greatest movies ever

Def a movie that’ll feel new again upon a rewatch. Thanks, you’re the raddest when it comes to 80s / 90’s nostalgia

I've always loved this movie, it's def my favorite John Hughes high school movie from the 80's. The soundtrack is also one of the best movie soundtracks of the day. Great video Kurt, I like how you took the advice and show the movie clip first then the current shot. Keep it up!

Kurt, you really need investors to grant you a budget to do this and build a team out to help you. You do such an amazing job narrating and researching, etc. Thank you for what you do!

Charlie Sexton’s “Beat’s So Lonely” makes the party scene at the end. Music.

I was working at the LA County Museum of Art when they filmed the scenes inside. This was August of 1986. The film shows a different museum on the outside, maybe the Getty. The scenes were filmed in the Ahmanson building which has been demolished. Where Duncan greets them was the employee entrance which at the time was off of Ogden Dr.

I don’t know what took me so long to find your channel. I started a channel of my own. All about Movies, music and Toy collecting. Being such a big movie fan I have always been on the hunt for good movie location KZreadrs. You my friend are Amazing. I’ve been hopping around your channel binge watching some of my favorites movie locations for 3 days now. I’m barely sleeping. I’ve watched many KZreadrs try to entertain and authenticate these shots. You absolutely nail it. Excellent work!!! This stuff drags me right back to my childhood. I lived at the movie theater in the late 80’s early 90’s. I’d save my lunch money and starve myself just to catch a flick every day after school. I’m just flawed by how precise you are……Awsome

Another one of my favorite movies from the 80’s. I have this movie as well on DVD.

Great work. Well done.

I was obsessed with this movie when I was a teenager. It was my favorite for a long time.

At the beginning of this video I thought you were going to stop your vehicle and say "Keith Cmon....cmon!" like Amanda did when she was driving away with Shane. I love the 80's 👍

Fab. I reckon the awnings may seem like a different colour on film, but they look to be the same old things from back then. Movie history !
