These movies were very popular in the 1980s when a lot of us were in high school. Coincidence?

Having "demon child" movies helped them to justify leaving us at home as latch key kids and shuffling us off to grandparents or baby sitters. <br /><br />Pregnancy and child rearing is also getting in the way of the Gen Y free sex party lifestyle. Please, take a moment and count the Xers:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.hotchickswithdouchebags.com/" rel="nofollow">Count the X'ers</a><br /><br />Not too many, huh?<br /><br />Penelope Trunk agrees, the Gen Y's are going to raise another Gen X:<br /><br /><a href="http://blog.penelopetrunk.com/2009/07/27/what-work-will-be-like-for-generation-z/" rel="nofollow">More Xers</a><br /><br />So, here we go again. The Boomers have raised perfect little self centered copies of themselves, and since the Boomers run the movie studios these days, they're gleefully making the "demon child" movies to justify GenY leaving their unplanned offspring off with any relative or babysitter that's convenient. <br /><br />The good news is there's going to be another generation of Xer types, and the way this country has been run under the Boomers, and by the sheer laziness that is the Y's, we're goign to need a group of tough, independent thinkers to carry on the GenX legacy that will eventually save the world.J-https://www.blogger.com/profile/15237765056847067983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6286851907865480562.post-80727658940808607382009-07-27T10:11:58.631-07:002009-07-27T10:11:58.631-07:00mwua ha ha ha ha ha ha - cue evil laughtermwua ha ha ha ha ha ha - cue evil laughterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6286851907865480562.post-14516555795278224112009-07-27T10:11:30.488-07:002009-07-27T10:11:30.488-07:00I know I am.I know I am.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6286851907865480562.post-8376469551093697732009-07-27T10:11:09.029-07:002009-07-27T10:11:09.029-07:00Well, the research shows. . .Well, the research shows. . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6286851907865480562.post-28854019195181986072009-07-26T19:34:55.528-07:002009-07-26T19:34:55.528-07:00Ah yes!

These movies are like cheap amuzement park thrill rides that leave you feeling a little sick after the ride. Generation X, I don't believe, is into these movies as much as movie producers would like us to believe. I like to think that we are seeking more sophisticated and poignant plots rather than those promoting the dark and horrible metaphors of our generation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
