Reality Bites was completely pretentious, just as Garden State was.

You're absolutely right except that Garden State was great!

Garden State was good, not great. I never understood the adoring love it received from people.


It was from everyone who was on antidepressants, seeing a therapist, felt stuck and had a f''ed up home life - LO AND BEHOLD! - there is a movie for them...

What they don't realize is that pretty encompasses most of american society...I don't need a movie to tell me I'm ok..I need a film to tell me it's ok to use a quarter to decide whether or not I kill someone.

There's an actual term for Potman's character, MPDG manic pixie dream girl.

Where is her mind?

I did not make that term up. It's a known term in the movie bloggin world old man.  :P

I was quoting The Pixie's lyrics (with some slight alteration)...
Hey, nice marmot!

Sorry, but relative from my 19 to your 42, that's kind of old.

Just saying?  ;D

Only 40 year olds say that.

That should be telling you something.

thats only because if 20 year olds said it it would mean they weren't born yet.

Only 19 yr olds think that.
I feel the same as I did when I was your age - except now I'm smarter. ;)
