re: Garden State

Soundtrack was great. Liked it at the time. But its a time and place movie.

Sorta Indie Cringe now that we learned the blueprint. I think the likeness of it is fine for then. But that was then, this is now.

I mean, I had this good opinion of Reality Bites in my youth. Try to watch it now. God that movie is a pretentious turd.

There's a reason Indies have a short shelf-life, they cater to youth and current issues and angst. Well, your audience grows up...and everyone behind them won't get it and frankly doesn't give a shite. Its not easy to make timeless movies.
