Afterthoughts: Super 8 and Cultural Significance

super-8-movie

To say that Super 8 is an important film is probably a bit of a stretch. To say however that the themes within Super 8 are culturally significant and representative of that time period is a much better way of applauding the film’s efforts. A thought that has been crossing my mind after coming out of the film is how relatable those kids are to those of us who grew up in the 80’s and early 90’s.

Yesterday morning – Tuesday 9th May 2011 – Paramount Pictures Australia held a special function for the upcoming J.J Abrams directed/ Steven Spielberg produced blockbuster: ‘Super 8’.

Warning: there are very MINOR SPOILERS in the article. If you have seen the trailer – then you’ve seen more of the plot then revealed here. Read more…
