I almost want to float Clerks, but it's still pretty solid and it's only the rest of the Kevin Smith catalogue that makes me question it. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Nov 17, 20:21
Breakfast Club. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 17, 20:10 1

  - Empire Records is a poorly done attempt to capture Tower Records. Reality Bites is specifically about Gen X - JD Nov 17, 20:04
  - I've never actually watched the whole thing, so I would still have to go Reality Bites -- nm - sweet baboo Nov 17, 19:58

  - Jeez. I liked it, but you are totally correct. -- nm - emoticripple Nov 17, 20:05 2
    - Though I think Girls is more emblematic of Millenials' unique insufferability. -- nm - emoticripple Nov 17, 20:07 1

Singles? -- nm - Max Nov 17, 19:47 2
- Nah fool! -- nm - sweet baboo Nov 17, 19:59
- To me that's the converse of the question and that's the watchable (sufferable?) Gen X movie -- nm* - JD Nov 17, 19:48
