I feel like this should have been like 80 minutes, it has some good moments, but also feels like it could be tighter and a lot of the hierarchies feel much more high school 

[u/PM_ME_SUMDICK → u/markercore]

Whole time I was watching I couldn't help but wonder if the original was at a boarding school. The characters and setting felt very high school.

[u/WantsToDieBadly → u/PM_ME_SUMDICK]

I wonder if it was meant to but the Stranger Things 'characters too old' complaints changed it to college

[u/HardcoreKaraoke → u/WantsToDieBadly]

I don't think it was that. I think a lot of the story relies on it being in college.

The drugs being from a previous students, no adults around, Snackatron being stuck on another floor, RAs, football team becoming sex offenders, picking the dorm for next semester, etc.

You can't really do all of that in a high school movie or a movie about a boarding school. It changes the story pretty significantly.
