Hi MoFo's.
Does anyone remember an indie coming-of-age film that came out around summer of 2008 or 2009, about a kid in high school (he could have been a senior and this was his last summer before college) who has a fandom for either Spielberg or Lucas, and he wants to either re-make or make his own version of Jaws or Star Wars? I also think (but easily could be wrong) I remember hearing that the plot for it was influenced by the kids who did the shot-for-shot remake of Raiders of the Lost Ark (since I remember this being in 2008, this was the year that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull also came out).
It takes place either in the late 70s or the early 80s, and could have possibly played at Sundance, or at least was popular in the indie circuit.
For a fact, I know it's not Son of Rambo or Super 8, that much is for sure.
