Comment: Okay, my summer movie is A Goofy Movie. I used to make it a point to watch that film every year on the last day of school. My summer songs are After Today as it has that fun expression of living life to the fullest and wanting to be noticed. Also anything by Garth Brooks can put me in the mood for summer but espeically Two Pina Coldas.

Comment: You should see the movie Polly, it's one of my favorite movies. It's about a parrot that can talk and trying to get back to his owner who is a little girl and the troubles he went through and the people he met. I give it 5 stars.

Comment: I agree with you, Jaimetud; the Beach Boys always make it feel like summer. Also, for me, Latin American music and the "Hawaii Five-O" theme song always put me in a summerish mood.

Comment: I was very surprised that South Pacific was on the list. And there was a man who did Stew Pot's solo very well when my high school did South Pacific

Comment: As for my list. Movies that make me think of Summer: 1. Classic Bond movies: These movies got pretty big on sports whether they were Winter or Summer sports, so long as they could toss in as many chase scenes and exotic vacation spots they could. Plus, it brings me back to my middle school days of watching these ALL summer. 2. Lilo and Stitch: As someone else here said, it's Hawaii. So what do you expect? Songs that make me think of Summer: 1. In the Summertime by Mungo Jerry: This song, for some reason, reminds me of taking trips to go boogie-boarding. 2. Every Summer by Greg Raposo. That poppy beat talking about summer love just does it for me. 3. Summer Rain by Matthew Morrison: Glee's Will Schuester captures that Summer romance spirit again. 4. Every other Beach Boys song ever written, and some by Jan and Dean. These songs were engineered into my spirit since birth and they are synonymous with Summer. They just go together so well.

Comment: This was a pleasant surprise! 1. Back to the Future has that blockbuster appeal to it that probably associates it with summer, but it's a fun one at best. 2. South Pacific: It's the beach, man. That spells summer right there. Love that music. 3. Pirates: Oh, this one I'm sure will be remembered as a classic. 4. The Sandlot: God, I love this movie. It so perfectly captures the childhood of many a young man. 5. Raiders: Heh, Of course. Blockbuster heaven! 1. School's Out: Easy choice. The song that spawned a million hookies. 2. Summer of '69: Love Bryan Adams, but I haven't heard this one. Better check it out. 3. Summer Nights: This one's up near the top of my list, if I had one. 4. Walking on Sunshine: If this song is summertime, then summer never ends for me! 5. Paradise City: Haven't heard this one, but I love the band. In any case, great job with these lists. Your editing here was very flashy and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Comment: Some of my summer movies are (in no particular order): *"Lilo and Stitch" (can't get much more summer-y than Hawaii) *"Beauty and the Beast" (if only because I love that movie so much) *"Finding Nemo" (oceans always remind me of summer) *"Grease" (sure it takes place during the school year, but the students' playfulness and enthusiasm always makes me feel like summer) *"The Great Mouse Detective" (same reasoning with Beauty and the Beast, plus I think it technically took place in June, so there you go) Awesome list, Face!

Comment: My Summer Movies... Waterworld, The first two Jurassic Park films, Terminator 2, Armageddon, and One Crazy Summer...in fact...as a request, how does One Crazy Summer sound? It's got John Cusack, Demi Moore and Bobcat Goldthwait!

Comment: Movies I'm going to see this summer; Pirates 4, Harry Potter 7 part 2 (wouldn't that make it Harry Potter 8?), Super 8, Rise of the Planet of the Apes (definite maybe) Cars 2 (Though I doubt it will be one of Pixar's best).
