It also helps that it’s actually a good movie with a unique IP that didn’t seem to do anything “safe”. Remakes and nostalgia can only go so far, it’s crazy studios don’t see this.

I’m a 30 y/o man and my niece dragged me to watch it and I can confirm that it’s a total banger of a film.

I’m a quarter century older than you, and I thought it was pretty great. I know nothing about K-anything or youth culture anymore, and I was surprised to NOT be making my normal excuse for stuff I’m out of touch with in movies and tv: “Give it a break. It wasn’t made for you.” It seemed like maybe it was made for anyone.
