Generation Y
07.06.07 (12:30 am)   [edit]
I could write about how my brother came to San Jose, and on his first night my husband and I introduced him to the term "40-ouncer" and on the second night after going Oakridge, The Tech, with a little a lot of help from my dad introduced him to a new term, "Bar Hopping" and how hopefully after this time together he will no longer have to question what it feels like to be buzzed.

Instead, I would like to ask a personal favor of Generation Y. (For those of you playing the home game, this would be probably about everyone born from 1980-199...early.
We are not old. We are not even 30 yet. (Not that 30 is old). We may be going through quarter-life crises, but we need to be intelligent about it. I can understand that one may wish to return to the simplicity of younger days. You won't get that time back and if you remember really hard it probably wasn't as simple as you might want to believe. That said, please do not buy in to the half-assed (albeit expensive) attempts of Hollywood to capitalize on these emotions. Seriously, these movies based on concepts that are almost 30 years old are pathetic. Let's not kid ourselves and pretend they are movies intended for everyone. They are attempts to bring us back into some kind of happy place. If these shows were so great just they way they were back then, why do they need to update them in CGI?
Please, Generation Y, these shows were entertaining for 5-10 year-olds. And we are having to grow up and be responsible. However, do not buy in to these attempts of Hollywood to make you yearn for some kind of happy place.

And yes, this has an awful lot to do with the fact that I am really really sick of Transformers. And The Ninja Turtles movie, and the upcoming Care Bears movie, and the Pee-Wee's Playhouse: The Movie. The saddest thing about the last one is Cap'n Carl can't be in it. And I do believe Paul Rubens was close enough to Mr. Hartman to respectfully not replace him. Think the original Cowboy Curtis will be? Fortunately, there are no attempts for a My Little Pony movie...yet...

I have no emotion right now. I don't feel like it. I've got to get up early...
