Wet Hot American Summer failed to hit it big at the box office, yet it has lived on in the world of pop culture, achieving total cult hit status over the last 15 years. Elizabeth Banks and Bradley Cooper both made their big-screen debuts in the comedy, and we're hoping they (and the rest of the cast) return for Netflix's second reboot, Wet Hot American Summer: Ten Years Later. In case you haven't seen the movie or you just want a refresher, we've gathered the best GIFs out there to explain why people are still talking about Wet Hot American Summer.
