Cool concept. I answered just based on the title, but I enjoyed then checking it out. :-)
SamKat9 🤓9:46 · 2023-09-24T11:05:47.135Z
Neat puzzle, thanks! Nice work with matching the colors to the movie poster!
Abide constructor · 2023-09-24T11:14:14.380Z
To see the connection with the colored PDF, Google the movie poster.
Capn Rick 🤓7:10 · 2023-09-24T11:30:11.626Z
Nice one, Peter! And I like your cool grid design.
boharr 3s · 2023-09-24T12:39:34.217Z
Very fun. Thanks Peter.
Bird Lives 6s · 2023-09-24T13:26:36.975Z
What an ingenious way of turning someone's idea into a great meta. I was hoping to find Gidget, or at least DEE, in the grid. Alas.

imontoo 3s · 2023-09-24T13:42:42.644Z
Appropriate for the continuation of the SSS. Thanks, Peter.
I K Snamhcok 🤓9:11 · 2023-09-24T13:55:49.926Z
I too guessed by the title -- and by vaguely remembering, way back in 1966, that my older sister was all gung ho to see this movie. Weird, because I've never, in all my life, seen her get into the water. I'm guessing that the surfers were the attraction.
Alex Sisti 4s · 2023-09-24T13:28:32.465Z
I love abacus movies...
KayW 🤓3:07 · 2023-09-24T14:10:21.196Z
Fun one! What a great way to announce ∞SSS
Qmark 5s · 2023-09-24T14:30:11.226Z
Super Sunday Solve, Peter! Love the visual connection with the movie poster.
MatthewL 🤓6:38 · 2023-09-24T14:50:29.278Z
Very cool construction. Thanks for the puzzle!
Carolyn 4s · 2023-09-24T16:22:05.516Z
Nicely done! Here in San Diego we have an endless summer! Well, almost...
woozy 12:32 · 2023-09-24T16:31:23.491Z
Whew... briefly had some confusion with thinking the song was "skip to my loO" and wondering about midsommer but that didn't last long.

Hard grid though.
DrTom 4s · 2023-09-24T17:02:21.237Z
Fun Sunday AM diversion Peter. I found myself humming "Catch a wave and you're sittin on top of the world", entirely apropos because it was on the Beach Boys album "Endless Summer" (and "Surfer Girl" originally).

I remember Endless Summer, saw it in the summer of 1966 before starting college. But the film I remember better is Summer of 42 and the crush so many of us had on Jennifer O'neill - ah the innocence of youth.
michaelm 🤓18:35 · 2023-09-24T18:08:50.832Z
Thanks for the puzzle and your endless contributions, Peter!
ajk 12:44 · 2023-09-24T20:37:01.059Z
very cool. Fun by itself, let alone doing double duty as an announcement. :) The movie is great too.
whimsy 🤓11:34 · 2023-09-24T20:44:55.335Z
Even fun in B&W -- Thanks, Peter!
Laura M 🤓4:52 · 2023-09-24T22:09:35.549Z
Very nice!
Mwoychick 11:32 · 2023-09-24T23:44:04.853Z
Love it - thanks, Peter!
ReB 4s · 2023-09-25T02:44:02.192Z
When I identified the extra letters, everything fell into place - especially since I was in on the discussion for renaming SSS. Nicely construction effort.
HeadinHome 🤓2:37 · 2023-09-25T08:41:48.681Z
Clever in so many ways… thanks for the Sssunday amusement!
hoover 4s · 2023-09-25T13:41:12.923Z
I bet I'm not the only one who tried LOST SUMMER (but that wasn't 1966).
kurtalert 🤓4:02 · 2023-09-25T23:03:14.394Z
Lots of fun- thanks!
Darth 20:44 · 2023-09-27T23:10:12.173Z
Nice conception. Does this mark the official continuation of (Endless) Summer Sunday Solves then?
- Abide constructor · 2023-09-28T13:54:40.097Z
  Yes-- endless until it ends!
