Why did "coming of age" die?
>>220373679replaced by ipads and fentanyl
Kids watch hardcore pornography by 10 yo these days. The loss of innocence isn't poignant.
I'm 44 and still coming of age, it's a different era!
>>220373679>I live in different, special timesYou live in the Thunder YearsAs in, a generation defined by an Imagine Dragons song
>>220373679unironically the rise of pedophilia hysteria. same reason that the new buffy show couldn't exist with people who are underage. coming of age will have sex related stuff and unless it's about raping kids (this is fine to have because its exploring trauma) then the kids have to be entirely asexual, which isn't a real thing so nobody writes about it.
There's no joy in living anymore for zoomers and Gen Alpha boys. The modern world is catered to women. If you're a male you need to shut up and get ready to be cannonfodder for Israel.
>>220373737>I'm a wizardThanks for sharing
>>220373704I feel like that's true of my generation, but we still had Superbad, The way way back, and kings of summer.
>>220373679It's been replaced by coming out
>>220373750> rise of pedophilia hysteriaIts rise of the internet. Twitter and other forums will be flooded with pedo shit following new movie and game releases.
>>220373704>these daysif you were 10 in the 00s with an internet connection or a friends internet, you also watched hardcore porn through the napster spinoffs full of porn and viruses
>>220373679It didn't, Stranger Things was one of the most popular shows of the last couple of years and they just made a new spinoff cartoon.
>>220373679Cause making boys think they can have the same life their grandfather did is misogynist
>>220373679Zoomers and alphas treat sex as evil. The mere mention of teenage sex makes them foam at the mouth
>>220373918>how teenagers workAs described by an anonymous middle aged virgin on 4chan
>>2203736791. Way fewer white people have kids so movies about white kid experiences are not as profitable2. There's no relatable contemporary movie material anyway. You're not gonna watch a movie about some kid sitting at home, watching podcasts while playing roblox while also scrolling his phone
>>2203741641. OP didn't post a movie, its a tv show.2. There is an entire platform called twitch where millions of people watch videos of kids sitting at home, watching podcasts while playing roblox while also scrolling their phone.
>>220374202That would explain why there's no movies about it then. But I thought I was giving a hyperbole example, didn't think that actually existed. Pretty fucked
>>220373750This. Basically if you showed a teen girl lusting after her older teacher (something they all do) you’d be crucified for “normalizing” wrongthink
>>220374291Sounds like Euphoria
>>220373750>>220373704Kids these days are so fucked up, minor sexuality and age gaps have been normalized to a point teenagers believe they belong to a protected sex club. I seriously don't get how can you be prude and degenerate at the same time but americans showed it's possible.
>>220373679exposure to hard core pornography
>>220374395normalized since the 1960s, every gas station and supermarket had porn mags and they even had open air sex clubs and bath houses in the 70s and 80s where kids could see it in person
>>220374710you're a mental case if you think titty mags in gas stations was on the same level as easy access internet porn of the most degrading and extreme nature, but i already know given your response you are a fucking mental case, so dont reply.
I love coming of age movies cause I miss being a kid
>>220374758Outside of playboy, the mags were much dirtier than just showing titties, but you already knew that, its why you were trying to play damage control to cut me off before I could reply with the obvious.
>>220373836That's far worse.
>>220373679because growing up doesnt work that way anymore.unfortunately.
>>220374758Don't post. You're shit.
>no Winnie Cooper gf
>>220373704>Kids watch hardcore pornography by 10 yo these days.If you're a shit parent, maybe.
>>220373679Most cinemagoers want a happy ending and it's hard to really buy a "coming of age" film in the modern era that isn't entirely cynical.We're basically at the stage where Lilya 4-ever is closer to what a "coming of age" movie should look like for a lot of young people.Otherwise it's simply too detached.
>>220374940Nah. If you say no internet to your kid then the kid will grow up to be a transexual.
>>220374710>this zoomer shit againLmao
We've transitioned to the age of coming
I'm a 1993 millennial so my whole life the internet has been there but i just completely ignored it until i was like 13.
>>220373679Teens don't go outside and believe they are still developing at 30 years old.
>>220375064Zoomers are the ones that didn't know you could get hardcore porn in any gas station or book store in the 70s.
>>220375261They are.
>>220374291But not if it's done on shows like Eurphoria (or other degenerate shows) where it's shown to be "empowering" for women.
It's too erotic by today's standards
>>220373882Bangbus and qmov were big in the 00s. Before it was velvet and club.
I’m sure it’s because there is no childhood nostalgia for living after 9/11.AND because its the type of movie that would thrive on cable movie channels and video rental stores.
>>220373882>hardcore porn through the napster spinoffs full of porn and virusesYeah, but where are those virus as tho?I've been doing it since i was 8, nothing ever happened. Is there some kind of virus master plan that i will discover in my 60s?
>>220373704>>220374710>>220374395You do realize that most kids in the history of humanity witnessed murders, their parents being eaten by bears, rapes, wars, famine and shit?
because there's no future, just infinity browns forever
>>220373679Because everyone is forever a child, why grow up when you can be on your parents insurance till 26 and can't buy a house?
>>220373679coming of age stuff these days is Jazz tranny shit lmao
>>220374164>You're not gonna watch a movie about some kid sitting at home, watching podcasts while playing roblox while also scrolling his phoneWar of the Worlds (2025)Mercy (2026)
>>220376914We need a jazz general right meow
It didn't. "Coming of age" media still gets made.Why does everyone treat the OP like gospel? What happened to calling OP a faggot?
>>220376983sorry, his random statement reaffirmed my beliefs that the world is bad and i instantly agreed in less than a second. it just felt right, you know? now i need to chime in with more non-sequiturs to further support the theory
>>220376890This, the concept of "childhood" is a very recent post-WWII invention, for thousands and thousands of year kids were shorter adults who worked at 5, married at 10 and went to war at 12, and with luck they lived until the ripe old age of 39.
>>220376872This, dialers were a far bigger threat. Somehow I got hit with one and when the phone bill arrived me parents were FURIOUS, I got a serious ass-whoopin that day lmao
>>220376966Gamer
>>220373750>>220373679Law and Order SVU unironically ruined it all.
every "coming of age" movie is about nerdy jewish teenagers who get invited to white jock parties and have sex with white girls
>>220377063i downloaded and tried to run dozens of "dialers" and they never worked. I didn't have dialup for very long though.
take the korea pill, 2521 and reply 1988 are the best coming of age/family dramas of the last 20 years.
>>220374990No thanks, rabbi
>>220376890You're a fucking retard
>>220373679because if adults knees what kids do these days Hitler would be back in power within the next 5 years.
>>220377031no retard, thats adolescences, mankind has always had childhood and adulthood. Its the concept of teen years thats new, same as marrying for love
zoomers don't come of age
>>220373750Is this like satanic panic?
>>220373679Kevin Arnold was one nasty little shit of a kid. I always wanted to see him get the shit kicked out of him but it never seemed to happen.
>>220373679moar liek CUMMING of GAYge amirite lel
>>220378193
>>220377513
>>220378218t. groomer
>>220376890ah yes, I remember in the past quiet little villages regularly had murderers stroll in, rape and kill their parents, say toodle-loo, and wave to the children as he leaves.they then grew up to be completely normalkeep in mind these murders and rapes would go on every day for several hours a day seen from 30cm away, and lasted for years.
>>220373750Nailed it.
>>220373750>>220373868no it precedes the internet and it was media generated. tons and tons and tons of drama/murder dogshit and 'news' style stuff pretending to be fact pushing a mass hysteria of suspecting everyone around you of being a demonic child eater.they use the usual excuses of it being to "inform" and "spread awareness", but it is to brew up insane levels of paranoid for something that was otherwise fairly uncommon and limited to a few mental patients.id even guess that they caused more of it to happen, just like they did by pushing "self mutilation" into every children's drama and soap opera, which resulted in a generation of children slicing their arms and legs up with razor blades.it's advertising and propaganda.look up the number of cases of razorblading lunatics pre-1990s or even pre-2000s, and they were a handful of cases in actual mental asylums.i remember reading about a serial killer that shoved needles into his body and left them there and thought it was absolutely unheard or and demented, yet now that kind of thing is commonplace among imbalanced teens.
>>220378157more or less, with directed media causing the craze. it was similar in the 80s with some notable meme films and series blowing up the idea, but from what I heard that was from some ultra-puritan sects making noise about dungeons and dragons.this time it's all come from governnent/media with fake escalation, leading to a general countrywide state of paranoia, mostly among uneducated working class.now they see them everywhere, it's especially saturated into the mind of people in England, and to a lesser degree the US
>>220373679>why did [thing that didn't die] die>why is everyone doing [thing that no one does]>why am i the only doing [thing that everyone does]Jump under a train and never make a single one of these threads again, you utter fucking faggot.
>>220379684Snailed it!
>>220378157as in we now know it was fully justified and suppressed and discredited by the usual suspects?
>>220380014Explain this then: https://youtu.be/VTJ0_BABexo?si=YewxrCInrrTaPzfA
>>220380014it was more than likely created by the usual suspects as misdirection, same way this current panic is directed almost exclusively towards wiypipo when the stats and reality say a very different thing, which simply don't appear in the media.
>>220374164nobody makes white media anymore anyway, every media now has a completely unrealistic cast of samesex,mixed raced,transunicorns,mentally fucked,virtue signalling cast that exists nowhere else in the real world so nobody relates to the show, they just watch and see every box is ticked on the social media bingo card
>>220373704I've seen 13 year old looking bitches wearing "gwak gwak queen" shirts.
>>220380325pretty common for the last 20 years for them to wear crop tops with "moist" on them, and the last 10+ years very short shorts with "juicy" on them in sparkly purple glitter bubble writing.havent seen any "fishy" on crotches yet, or "hard nipples" scarves, but I'm sure they're just around the corner.
>>220373679I know of The Wonder Years as a kid, but I never watched it even though I'm old enough to. I just read the wikipedia synopsis out of curiosity and it sure sounds like it's mostly about this kid pinning for some girl that keeps cucking him.
>>220373679>Why did "coming of age" die?there are not enough children being born, and the target audience, women 40 and up, don't want to be reminded of their age
>>220380512in later episodes you see him sitting in a chair watching a line of other boys going up to her and kissing/groping her, intercut with scenes of a toy trainset going repeatedly into a tunnel, the moisture of the steam dripping down from the top of the tunnel afterwards.seemed innocent enough when seeing it as a child, but seems a bit off now
>>220373737I also missed out on milestones after graduating high school
>>220373737>on all milestones from the age of 10 onwardsthe no-wonder yearsmaybe they should make a series about us. viewers kys themselves halfway through the first series
>>220373882>if you were 10 in the 00s with an internet connection or a friends internet, you also watched hardcore pornHoly cope. Yes we did seek out porn because it something adult and taboo. We saw a few 15 second clips here and there when the PC was not within an adult's line of sight. Just normal vanilla porn. That's not the same as a kid in 2026 getting their own smartphone and watching porn or demand while being groomed by sickos through roblox into even more disgusting shit. You have no clue how thoroughly destroyed your soul was before you even reached your teen years, zoom zoom
I'm 33 and have never even kissed a girl
>>220381089I'm also 33. Fucked many hookers, had some girlfriends. None of them I really loved. Couldn't stay with them for one reason or another. But I have so much experience with women. I made it to 24 before I felt so horny that I had to get a hooker. How much longer will you wait?
>>220380844the ones like you perving out in 2010 are the ones latching onto the ones now in roblox and luring them into demonic pukeanyone born before 2000 was more or less a saint in comparison and remained unblemished until 50
>>220373679Staying inside and on the computer isn’t as compelling as anytime before 2005
>>220381117Never. I hope to kill myself when I stop being such a pussy about it
>>220381089you could star in an up to date version, narrating yourself from the perspective of a 90 year old man.>back then, at the tender age of 33, I didn't have a care in the world, and I hadn't yet discovered the mysterious and perilous creature that was woman.>little did I know that it would be another 20 years before I'd experience that first, magic kiss, when I volunteer at an old people's home and snuck into the High-sedation dementia ward at night.
>>220381181Why? What's stopping you from getting a hooker? You should at least look into it.
>>220381124>Im a weirdo pedo so everyone else must be toook groomer
>>220381233>it is only okay when my commie friends do it
>>220381233>brought up the subject in the first placepointing in all directions but yourself. fascinatingalso interesting you knew the specifics of exactly where these current youngsters spend their time
>>220381089Those are rookie numbers. I'm 38 and have never even kissed a girl. And I know for a fact that there are people who have never kissed a girl that are even older than me. I worry about the future bros, not just for myself but for the entire human species.
>>220381306don't worry, third worlders are mindless animals that get knocked up by their relatives at 13 and churn out half a dozen chimplings in as many years.overall biomass won't reduce, just the number of actual humans will
>>220381255>>220381265>t. groomed turned groomerszoomers are fucked
>>220374940your kid will 100% see it at school from a bad parent's dipshit kid regardless of your own parenting efforts
We used to go to the woods to find porn back in the day, to find hidden porn magazines.And no, I'm not making this shit up we used to have to do this.
>>220381342embarrassing projection >>220380844>YES we did seek out filth as children and YES we are degenerate freaks, but now we're the ones seeking out children in this specific video game that I just happen to know aboutkill yourself tranny
>>220373679Basically when zoomies came of age.
Those old movies about 15 year olds discovering sex would give a zoomer an aneurism.Teenagers have been recategorized as the same category as a 5 year old.
