April 7, 2016 - Preface, Richard Linklater has a very unique style of directing. In his more spirited films, Slacker, Dazed and Confused, and now Everybody wants Some; Linklater finds a way to make you enjoy a film that doesn't necessarily have a plot.

It now looks that the veteran director is revisiting the world of Dazed & Confused with what he's described as a "spiritual sequel" set in the 1980's.

January 22, 2020 - College boys cruise down the street, singing and rapping along to “Rapper’s Delight,” the 1979 hit by the Sugarhill Gang. The time is 1980.

April 7, 2016 - Borrowing the name of Track 2 from Van Halen’s 1980 album“Women and Children First” for the title of his new film, Richard Linklatergoes back to the days of “Dazed and Confused” for a spiritual sequel that canalso be viewed as a follow-up to “Boyhood.”

I put off watching it for so long because I heard nothing good about it, which makes sense as there is inherently less broad appeal. If those sentiments were wrong, I’d have been surprised. The characters are all the same, there’s no contrasting styles and from there it’s just something entirely different than Dazed & Confused, which had more and better direction.

December 22, 2015 - With a streak like few other directors, Richard Linklater will be following Bernie, Before Midnight, and Boyhood with a “spiritual sequel” to one of his best films, Dazed and Confused. Everybody Wants Some follows a group of college baseball ...
