James needed a heavy dose of nostalgia and Stand By Me always hits the spot.

I was approximately the same age as these kids when this film came out. Watching their careers... warts and all... seems so meta today. Jokingly, I have used "You guys wanna see a dead body?" way more times in my life than I should admit. Reiner has one Hell of "Top-10" as a Director, and I place this 2nd only behind When Harry Met Sally (1989).
James... I've quickly become a fan of your reactions. Keep up the excellent work!
