Most ppl on this board are fans of this movie. It stands the test of time and is an American classic.
If you haven't heard of it yet, there is a new show on Netflix called, Stranger Things. It feels like the show takes bits and pieces from a handful of classic movies. And Stand By Me is definitely one of them.
Check out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMzrAP4aTXA and see what I'm talking about (trailer included).

I thought that the kids walking along the train tracks, two by two of course, was a nice nod to us fans.

Well, seeing that the episode was called "The Body"....

Also that Stranger Things show sounds interesting. Hopefully they pick it up for a second season.
