The Big Picture In 1993, director Richard Linklater took audiences on a familiar journey and followed the last day of school for a group of students in Austin, Texas in 1976. Truly one of the best titles in the coming-of-age genre, whether you graduated from high school in 1976 or 2024, the primary themes of Dazed and Confused continue to ring true. Essentially, if you’ve had a high school experience, there’s at least one character that you’ll recognize as a friend or even yourself.
Over the years, many fans have come to see Everybody Wants Some!! as a sequel to Dazed and Confused, leaving the ever-nagging question of “Will there ever be a third film?” up in the air. During an interview with Collider’s Perri Nemiroff, for his upcoming Netflix film, Hit Man, Linklater shared his idea for a potential follow-up and why it may not be the neatest of fits for a trilogy.
Everybody Wants Some!! , to me, is the better movie technically . I love the characters in both, but I was just a better filmmaker by then, I feel. When I made Dazed I was conflicted because high school was conflicted. College, I was doing that, and I was like, ‘Oh, this was all fun!’ I loved the freedom, I realized, so the film’s more relaxed, more fun because it was just pure fun. High school was more conflicted to me. For kids out there, college is more fun than high school.
