E.T. came out in 1982. The oldest millennials would have been 2 years old. It’s a Gen-X movie. The rest of the text holds up tho.
Back in my day, kids watched movies that weren’t brand new.
Signed, a millennial who watched ET as a kid.
We got em years later on cassette at Blockbuster, and we would re-rent and re-watch our favorites sometimes.
There also weren’t as many movies to choose from, nor was it all available at our fingertips all the time.
And after that it would be on TV. If memory serves me right it was kind of a big deal the first time that happened.
Yep, and if I recall correctly, it usually hit cable TV first (usually HBO, I think), and then edited-for-broadcast-TV versions later.
Sure, but I have to imagine it was written with currently-alive kids in mind, not the not-yet-conceived. Now get off my lawn.
Still. It didn’t even get released on VHS until 1988. It’s one of the most famous movies of all time. Guaranteed many if not most millenials saw it kid.
Gen X: the forgotten generation
I mean, the music snobbery of acting like we weren’t cool if we didn’t listen to the right bands, and the slacker attitude that eventually grew into “got mine” Boomer Juniors… yeah, fuck em, worth forgetting.
Came out after 80, it’s ours! ~a millennial
Video rentals and cable TV, my dude
ACKSHUALLY, 1980 is the end of Gen X and 1981 is the beginning of millennials, the oldest of which would have been 18 in 1999.
So the oldest millennials would have been having their first birthday.
Thanks, ET
Bullshit ET, naproxen sodium > ibuprofen and everybody knows it!
Celebrex ftw
Too much ibuprofen use can lead to ulcers, please limit use to the worst days.
Source: have cancer, can’t take acetaminophen or naproxen, they conflict with my meds, I can only take ibuprofen.
Also severe acute liver damage.
Generally kidney not liver for ibuprofen.
Oh right I was thinking of acetaminophen.
His diction has improved immeasurably
