200 cigarettes was harmless and dumb though, unless I'm grossly mistaken

My friend and I looked at one another, shrugged, and turned around and left.
Ha, it's just like that Volkswagen Pink Moon commercial.

was winona ryder in even one good movie after "heathers"?
― J.D., Saturday, 5 January 2008 08:10 (sixteen years ago) link
i have never seen this and never intend to.
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 5 January 2008 08:22 (sixteen years ago) link
I was getting ready to defend post-"Heathers" Winona but Alien: Resurrection really is the only good movie she's done since then. (Night On Earth is okayish, I haven't seen Mermaids and don't care about Edward Scissorhands either way.)

I'll stand up for A Scanner Darkly
― Elvis Telecom, Saturday, 5 January 2008 08:46 (sixteen years ago) link
I was about to say Night on Earth, but her segment is the least entertaining in the whole film.

i haven't seen Reality Bites, but it's got to be a better "LOL 90'S" movie than Empire Records
― latebloomer, Saturday, 5 January 2008 10:20 (sixteen years ago) link
empire records didn't take itself nearly so seriously, did it?
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 5 January 2008 10:30 (sixteen years ago) link
i dunno i just remembering hating hating hating hating it and all the stupid people who liked it. also, the soundtrack.

i pretty much loved most of the 90s gen-x films, no matter how crap they were.
― Rubyredd, Saturday, 5 January 2008 10:37 (sixteen years ago) link
was clueless a gen-x film or were the characters too young?
― get bent, Saturday, 5 January 2008 10:40 (sixteen years ago) link
too young and not at all gen-x anyway! like as if.

ehhh... it's just a really good teen movie.
― That one guy that hit it and quit it, Saturday, 5 January 2008 11:00 (sixteen years ago) link
i'm just thinking the ubiquity of cell phones (a rarer thing among teens in the mid-90s, but all over this flick) and the reliance on constant contact.
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 5 January 2008 11:02 (sixteen years ago) link
is that a gen-y thing?
― That one guy that hit it and quit it, Saturday, 5 January 2008 11:11 (sixteen years ago) link
purely antecdotal, but every coworker/extended family member/sibling of mine that's under the age of 19 prefers texting to calling and always has a phone in their hands.

Why did I dig up this thread last night? Oh yeah, the Heidegger thread.
― James Redd and the Blecchs, Saturday, 5 January 2008 15:04 (sixteen years ago) link
Defense: this movie remains a glimpse into the alternate reality where Janeane Garofalo has a steady sarcastic-friend gig in romantic comedies, and that would be a good reality.

You know it occurs to me after reading this thread that there is actually one good scene in this movie--the dialogue-free montage scene where Ryder runs around paying for for other people's fillups on her gas card in exchange for cash. It's about a minute long, I think.

Jelle_1979 3 weeks agoSay what you will, Reality Bites had a terrific soundtrack with Lisa Loeb and her breakthru hit 'Stay', Crowded House, U2, The Knack, World Party, Squeeze, The Posies, Dinosaur Jr, Lenny Kravitz and Big Mountain with their version of 'Baby I love your way'.

That jerk left out the real highlight which was clearly Ethan Hawke doing "Add it Up" or his original effort "I'm Nothing". lol.

the lesson i learned from this movie is you can say anything you want to a girl and she'll forgive you if a relative of yours dies.
