    Stepmom Julia Roberts character wants to take the kids to a PJ show and the mom, played by Susan Sarandon, said no, just so she could get the tickets and take the credit. Based in New York, 1998 - Would have been an epic show!

    1:06 -1:20 in trailer:

    I remember feeling really pissed off at Susan Sarandon's character for that when I saw that movie. I thought "what a bitch! She doesn't even know their music!" when she stole the Pearl Jam idea from Julia Roberts, lol.
    Who the hell watches Stepmom? Seriously, I won't even watch that trailer.
    So you missed the Julia Roberts full frontal scene then?
    This weekend we rock Portland

    "Hellcab" from 1998 has TWO Pearl Jam songs: "Who You Are" about halfway through and "Hard to Imagine" at the end.
    The movie is about a taxicab driver's day, which is basically an emotional roller coaster of a day. It's a very 90s movie with a bunch of unknown actors plus some very 90s talent, including Julianne Moore, Gillian Anderson, and John Cusack being creepy.

    Oh, I forgot that part! Yes, it was good! The acting was good as well as the micro-stories. The cab driver is the thread throughout the movie and that actor did a great job. It clearly didn't come out of the Hollywood machine, where every act and plot point feels programmed down to the second.

    my favorite version of Hard to Imagine. Still haven't seen the movie. I think I saw a little bit of it when ABC would show movies late at night

    I imagine it could be a movie that people whose parent is dying of cancer might want to watch, or for kids who lost their mom or dad and maybe for those whose remaining mom or dad is getting remarried? Or for women getting into a stepmother role, or for a mom who is dying and leaving her kids to a stepmom she doesn't even like, lol. It's actually a pretty good movie, for a movie about some kids' mother dying of cancer while their dad is in a relationship with a new woman, and how the kids and the dying mom and the new stepmom handle all that. I'm pretty sure the film was made to express the difficulties, successes, and failures that come with tough family situations like that - kind of like a way to help people and perhaps give them hope in such hopeless situations. I'm sure it was a comforting film for a lot of people.

    So I've seen Airheads a bunch of times, but never noticed one dude in the crowd/street (for a few seconds) is wearing the Stickman t-shirt.  It's right after the uzi incident and Chazz says "Ok who's got a tic tac?".  Have it on my phone but that's it.

  • My favorite PJ movie reference is from The Brady Bunch Movie in '95.  To paraphrase, someone describes Marcia as "that girl's harder to get into than a Pearl Jam concert"

    Whenever I see that movie title I think of this exchange in Rocky.  (Ed has worn a Rocky shirt numerous times...there is the PJ connection, lol)

    "Hey Rock?"
    "What?"
    "Remember what I told you..."
    "Yeah, what'd you tell me?"
    "Take her to the Zoo, Rock"


    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Yes it was amazing! My uncle and I are giant family guy fans and we've been wondering for years when we'd finally get a PJ reference. I don't remember the exact dialog but basically Ed is singing the melody of Even Flow to Saul telling him about how he was in a drunk driving accident. The last thing is Saul asking him if he was on drugs and Ed sings "E and blooow"

    pretty interesting.  So are they a real band?  (Never heard of them) or like a mockumentary, Spinal Tap thing?
