Dazed and Confused doesn't fit; it's in the 70's
Sep 18th 2008

      So it wasn't a Gen X movie
Sep 18th 2008
6
      probably shoulda just said early-mid 90s coming of age movie
Sep 18th 2008
7
           So you shoulda said something completely different?
Sep 18th 2008

      you're reaching.

In that case, I vote Shakespeare in Love
Sep 18th 2008

      because that 70s show was made for my parents.
Sep 18th 2008
9
           Gen X does not mean 90's Movie
Sep 18th 2008
10
                nope. that 70s show.
Sep 19th 2008
11
                     So you believe That 70's Show defines Generation X?
Sep 19th 2008
12
                     no. that 70s show is for people younger than generation x.
Sep 19th 2008
14
                     i don't see whats so hard to understand.
Sep 19th 2008
17
                          And that has nothing to do with what a Gen X film is
Sep 19th 2008
19
                               see you're focused on teenagers and you can't see why this is an issue.
Sep 19th 2008
21
                                    god i hope gen x isn't perpetually adolescent like the boomers
Sep 19th 2008
23
                                    30 is the new 20
Sep 19th 2008
27
                                    The oldest Gen Xers were 11 in 1976
Sep 19th 2008
24
                                         you're not reading what i'm writing because you're still hung up on sett...
Sep 19th 2008
26
                                              Come on man.
Sep 19th 2008
28
                                                   the problem with all your examples
Sep 19th 2008
30
                                                        Which defines the 70's: Saturday Night Live or Happy Days?
Sep 19th 2008
32
                                                             soooooo?
Sep 19th 2008
34
                                                                  Oh my god, just stop.
Sep 19th 2008
36
                                                                       you're mad cause you want to call someone an idiot
Sep 19th 2008
41
                                                                            That's as logical as the rest of your argument
Sep 19th 2008
42
                                                                                 go 'head and be in a rush to judge others. 5/18 votes.
Sep 19th 2008
43
                     that 70's show is fucked up for MANY reasons...
Sep 19th 2008
13
                          but this is my point. dazed and confused isn't a movie about 1976.
Sep 19th 2008
16
                               And that doesn't make it a Gen X picture.
Sep 19th 2008
18
                                    eh, i just thought you were being a bit facetious with/Shakes in Love
Sep 19th 2008
20
                                         Well, it's a crappy list
Sep 19th 2008
22
                                              i don't even know what the "defining generational moment" for x is suppo...
Sep 19th 2008
25
                                                   OK, and what if someone came out with an move based in 1986

                                                                  thats not my generation
Sep 19th 2008
35
                                                                       You learn about the times ALL people are living in
Sep 19th 2008
37
speaking as likely one of the few genuine generation x-ers here
Sep 20th 2008
46
      It's just a difference in definition
Sep 20th 2008
47

Sep 19th 2008

Sep 19th 2008
