No I don't mean like growing up in the 90's.

I was high school junior in '98. I'd like to have seen what it was like to be a high school junior in '76

No worries, hanging out and partying till the sun came up. I love watching that movie just for the simplicty and care free attitude of the time.

is pretty much what it was like to be in high school in the 90's.

Sorry dude..Alice in chains, pantera, acid bath, soundgarden, even nirvana, early nine inch nails, etc>>>>>>>>>Eminem, limp bizkit, korn, icp's explosion, etc

There were good late 90 times, but if you were old or cool enough in the early 90s..you'd understand how quick it all went to shite.

I didn't know that music dictated whether or not certain time frames were better overall than others.

Regardless, Soundgarden sucked, The Fragile is an extremely underrated album, and the mid-late 90's breakbeats owned.

I graduated in '97, and had a sister that was a few years older than myself. I was there for it all.

Nothing "went to shite" over the span of a few years. To this day, I don't think I've ever heard an ICP song.

I graduated in 77 and, except for the freshmen paddlings, that movie was very much like life in Kosciusko, MS at that time. Had a drive in hamburger joint named Scotty's with a game room next door very much like the movie. We went out to forest ranger towers. We blew up mailboxes with M-80's on a regular basis and stole stop signs. Rich kids had parties when their parents were out of town and we smoked our share of $30 lids of pot. Played football,shot pool, played foosball and rode around looking for chicks in hip huggers & halters. One fun thing they didn't do that we did a lot as teenagers was ride dirt bikes in the woods. I didn't have the money for a fast car. I drove a green 73 Vega GT with black racing stripes.

You were into dj trashy and johnny cage, weren't you?


And I agree the fragile is underrated..but it's no downward spiral or pretty hate machine.

An adventure movie seemed like it would be nice. Something like a movie that was based on Clive Owen's Sir Walter Raleigh in Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). That sounded fun until I remembered how tough The New World (2005) showed that period to be. Probably be my fate to be Spanish get stuck with Don Lope de Aguirre.


As long as I was royalty or at least an aristocrat, something like the Amadeus, one of the Elizabeth movies or the pre-French Revolution part of History of the World might be fun. I'd die young from a head chopping or with some venereal disease but "It's good to be the king."
