What was the point of the teenage romance in this film? It has zero to do with the plot and is completely stupid. I really enjoyed this movie, but I always want to fastforward thru the "Buck loves Cammie" parts. Yeah, I guess they'd be cute in there own movie(maybe), but they just don't fit here. It pointlessly slows the story down.
shareMy thoughts exactly. Almost every Hollywood movie has to have some fucking stupid love subplot whether it's warranted or not. It's beyond stale and formulaic. Not to mention the chick the son was chasing after was a complete bitch. She clearly thought she was some sort of prize! Girl, please. The minute he saw her smoking a cigarette he should've done a 180 and kept on walking! Nasty ho.
shareAnd they used the same music everytime we went back to that plotline. Terrible.
sharethey were following the proven typical 80's formula, they did want to fill seats
shareI like the idea of the subplot, but it was poorly executed.
shareAnd the way it’s edited it so awkward. Like for example: we have a scene where Buck meets Cammie and Ben is with him then in the next scene Ben is with Chet then we cut back to Buck going to talk to Cammie. Then we have Roman leaves the cabin and Buck goes looking for Cammie, then Roman comes back and Buck is at the cabin. Oh and that line about “I’ll buy you some worms” oh that was bad
I feel like they had wrapped up production then they decided at the last minute to throw the teenage love story in and they just edited it in wherever it was the least illogical
Every time we cut to them I’m just like “can we just get back to Aykroyd and Candy”, you know the two funny guys in the movie.
They should have taken those scenes out and either given us more of Akyroyd and Candy or used that time to flesh out the father son relationship with Candy and Buck
