I always find it weird when people measure movies based on trends that didn't exist when they made it.

Like, sure, some things I get, but the movie that predates all the things people hate about Indie films NOW isn't the fault of the movie. It's not their fault everyone copied them.

Imagine if people read Lord of the Rings and were like, "Pfft. Elves and orcs? Talk about fantasy trope 101!"

There's not a single trend that didn't preexist before Garden State made use of it. Braff just used them all so blatantly that they were instantly identifiable.
