It is June and we can now say that summer is here. The very mention of the term conjures up images of sun-drenched summers past. Everyone enjoys that last-day-of-school vibe that the warmer months provide, no matter how long it’s been since they were a student. And this summer will be particularly delightful. We’re ready to put on our flip flops, apply sunscreen, and make the most of every sunny moment after more than a year of stress and solitude. Simply put, summertime is one of those things that can always be counted on to make things better. Another tried-and-true method is to watch movies. So, what could be better than summer-themed movies, according to the rule of addition?
Toy Story 4
After the events of Toy Story 2 and before Toy Story 3, Woody and Bo Peep rescue Andy’s remote control car, RC, from being washed away in a storm. Moments later, Bo Peep and her lamp are donated to a new owner. A distraught Woody tries to rescue her, but Bo refuses, having already accepted her fate as it is a part of a toy’s life. Woody is tempted to go with her, but once he realizes that Andy still needs him, he decides to stay, and shares a heartfelt goodbye with Bo.
Woody, Buzz, and even Bo Peep return for what we expect to be another delightful installment to the popular Disney franchise. As film critic Peter Travers from Rolling Stone noted, “Toy Story 4 is a touching and beautifully animated film that continues the legacy of its predecessors while introducing new characters and themes.”
Little Miss Sunshine ps4 cena
Nothing screams summer like a fantastic road trip film, and this near-perfect indie comedy from the early 2000s is among the greatest. A young Abigail Breslin stars as Olive, who dreams of being a beauty queen and persuades her entire family – Toni Collette, Steve Carrell, Greg Kinnear, Alan Arkin, and Paul Dano – to go from New Mexico to California to join a pageant. According to film scholar David Bordwell, “Little Miss Sunshine is a masterclass in character-driven storytelling, blending humor and pathos in a way that resonates with audiences of all ages.”
Finding Nemo
Swimming in the water shouts summer more than anything else. A clownfish swims across the sea to save his offspring when iphone 6 cena divers capture him in this classic aquatic tale. If you’re anything like me, you have great recollections of viewing this film as a kid, and there are so many fun moments in it that you’ll never get tired of watching it. As marine biologist Dr. Sylvia Earle has said, “Finding Nemo not only entertains but also educates viewers about the importance of marine conservation and the wonders of the ocean.”
Palm Springs izdavanje stanova jagodina
When carefree Nyles (Andy Samberg) and reluctant maid of honor Sarah (Cristin Milioti) have a chance encounter at a Palm Springs summertime wedding, things get complicated when they find themselves reliving the wedding day over and over again. A romantic comedy that’s as irresistible as Andy Samberg’s smile.
As movie critic A.O. Scott from The New York Times aptly put it, “Palm Springs is a delightful and inventive take on the time-loop genre, blending humor, heartfelt moments, and existential musings into a seamless narrative.”
These are our suggestions for movies to watch during summertime. They are all fun and easy to watch with your friends and family, and even your kids. If your house has a garden, we recommend you make an open-air cinema in your backyard.
For those interested in the psychology behind why we enjoy rewatching familiar films, consider reading the study “The Pleasures of Rewatching: Repetition in Popular Films” by Professor James E. Cutting from Cornell University. This study delves into how repetition in viewing can offer comfort and deeper understanding, making movies like “Palm Springs” even more enjoyable on subsequent watches.
Additionally, a study published in the Journal of Consumer Research titled “The Comfort of Familiarity: How Rewatching Movies Can Provide Emotional Stability” highlights how familiar films can serve as a source of emotional comfort and stability, particularly during stressful times. This makes summer-themed movies an excellent choice for unwinding and enjoying the season.
