    This movie is like an actual fever dream, and to watch it as an adult is so different than growing up with it as a kid. And I'll tell you the one, biggest reason why we loved it. Texture. The texture in this movie, from the costumes to the horrible CGI stuff to the milk and cookies scene - everything just feels so satisfying like you can grab it. Plus most of us saw it theaters or at home with 3D glasses (because the DVD case came with them too lol) so that was pretty cool for the time :)

      Wow. I think you are correct.
      As a kid, I definitely focused on that. The lines in lavagirls suit. The way the cookies looked. I remember that.
      Something about it definitely grabbed my child brain. Despite being one of the ugliest weirdest dumb movies ever made.

    This movie is so special and charming because it was a faithful recreation of a real child's dream. It's not supposed to feel like a dream, it really is a dream, which lends it authenticity and makes it connect with children in a way no adult could really understand. And because the dream was that of the director's kid, this movie is a love letter from a parent to a child. Instead of adults trying to make a digestible mass marketable product based on what adults think kids like, this movie actually listened to what kids wanted. No movie better captures the wild imagination of children in such a way, and in that way it's an artistic accomplishment. Art in movies isn't about making the most easily to understand series of events possible, art in movies is capturing an expression.

    One thing that I think was severally under-developed in this move was the minor subplot about Max's parents fighting & possibly getting a divorce. There are seeds for it planted throughout the movie, but it's not really a factor. The writers could've used it to explain why Max focused on his dreams so much that he eventually got as wrapped-up in them as he did & developed that subplot a bit more so it doesn't come across as tacked on.

    The movie is a true exercise in Jung's concept of the collective unconscious, with the dreamworld interconnecting with the other students who were asleep and the running theme of dreams throughout it. That's not even counting how the movie transcended the concept and now lives in the collective unconscious of society itself, with seemingly everyone remembering it. Overall, there are a few deep notes here that may have been overlooked by the general problems of kids movies. The concept could certainly be interesting if applied in a different film.

Alsoooo I got the DVD as a kid and they had a 3-D version too with their own pairs of glasses. I was obsessed. The whole nostalgia of it also the concept of dreams can become reality was a great concept for a kid. Especially one with an imagination like I had. Also spykids’ troublemaker animation in the beginning always gave me waves of excitement as a kid too 😂😅

    My kid luvs this movie so I have seen it waaay too many times but I still laugh at the end at how they 'dive' into the water and how sharkboy yeets LG into the volcano. The green screen swimming also gets me every time. It's all so bad it's absolute gold.
