Is there a more millennial movie than Scott Pilgrim Vs The World?

>>219032989
yeah but she's 17
no matter how mature she is people will ostracize you can call you a pedophile
>>
>>219033619
I remember reading SP in high school and a dude next to me read the back cover and said "a 25 and a 17 year old? That would never happen today lol"
I didn't even think it was that weird desu but everyone looks like an adult in the movie which I had seen too. I just kinda laughed it off
>>
>>219033619
Weird how nobody cared back then
>>
>>219033619
You could try living in a civilized country where the age of consent is 16 which Canada happens to be and that's where the movie is set.

Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist was the biggest hipster wank I've ever seen.
Scott Pilgrim did have a few things to say about the young male experience; he can't pick the 17 year old, but the roast his age has a shitload of baggage. It could have been a GenX movie if the special effects were there in 1990 which they were not.
But Nick & Norah is all about bobos in paradise. It is all about hipsters who get through life by knowing things you rubes don't. It was just terrible.

I just can’t get past this aspect of the film. I know it is ridiculous on purpose and it still gives me whiplash.

Like there has to be some sort of meta subtext where the creatives are saying “this is presented as genuine for general audience purposes and job security, but you know that I know that you know that this shit is silly.” I’m not even a blackpill guy but come on. Come on now.

Watched this with a friend a while ago and I died from cringe. (I came back from the dead just to warn other anons to avoid this).

Juno was written by a GenXer, and all Cody's movies bear that weight.

The comments under the YouTube video for Scott Pilgrim Ruined an Entire Generation of Women are great.

it's because the age range on generations is dumb. Scott Pilgrim is millennial coded, but old 1980s millennials that spent their teen years in arcades and playing music, not 1990s millennials that spent their teens years online gaming and figuring out the internet
>>
>>219037619
>anime references
>>
>>219032285
It hits different when you realize Scott is the hapa creator’s self-insert/wish fulfillment (he wishes he was a white Toronto kid)
>>
>>219037706
dragon ball is literally '84. Scott plays the FF2 bass rift from '88
>>
>>219037453
I agree, I feel like that was a more mainstream movie too, in that more people than just internet dorks watched it.

>>219037706
Yes? Anime was very popular among American nerds in the 1980s and only became more popular with the internet. The "first wave" of American fandom peaked in the mid 90s, right as 80s-born queers were able to buy their own videotapes.

>>219037882
nobody could realistically buy videotapes it was like $60 an episode, you had to know a guy and get a bootleg. post-90s internet had nothing on
>that one guy with an external drive full of anime
>>
>>219037975
Late 90s-2000s was the peak of the anime fandom. You can't forget Naruto and Inuyasha.

What is millennial about it? I would categorize it as non-binary, neuro-divergant, lgbtqia+, not "millennial"
