The majority of Gen Xers were not seeing themselves in that movie at all. They were seeing themselves more in 80's movies (that actually came out in the 80's).

I was off with Kids. I counted it because I'm on the end of Gen X so I still connected to it but it doesn't fit.

As for focusing on teenagers, it doesn't have to be that but usually when people get older the generational blend ends. Do you have any suggestions? Fight Club could work. Little Miss Sunshine is on the border. I just can't think of any.

Huh? Why would I have to expand my definition? Gen X movies are movies of the generation that define the generation. A movie based on seniors in high school in 1976 doesn't fit Gen X.

How can you define Generation X with a movie that occured before half of Generation X was even born?
