    We've gotten to the point where there's a retro coming of age movie that takes place there called The To Do List. Decent movie, actually. It's on Showtime streaming. I was 12 going on 13 so some of the pop culture references and songs were actually accurate to that time compared to most movies. *cough*Wedding Singer*cough*

    Even PJ gets referenced with a poster on the wall and Andy Samberg playing a Vedder wannabe rocker.

    Isn't there a movie by the guys that made Dazed and Confused...but now it's about kids in the 90s?

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    You're off by a decade, RK. Richard Linklater's latest film is called Everybody Wants Some, and it's set in 1980. I think he called it something like a "spiritual sequel" to Dazed and Confused.

    The 90s less so than the 80s...we didn't have Reagan in the 90s.

    I don't know. It was kind of exciting thinking that the world was going to end in a nuclear holocaust at any moment.

    All that fun ended in the nineties.

    But we got Bush twice, we got 2 wars...the US being attacked wasn't exciting enough?

    I will say that some great art came out of the aughts! All that dread, I suppose.
