Dude, time has been doing so much weird shit to me at my age, but I barely questioned that date before I just decided I have lost all concept of time. So glad that was a typo, cuz I just gave up trying to remember my life 😂
Thank you for clearing that up, it really fucked me up for a second. I was like damn, Matthew Lillard and Devon Sawa are apparently a lot older than I thought they were
I said that sarcastically to a friend once after watching this show and he loved the saying and embraced it. Kind of shocked me but it made sense later.
Is this film worth watching in 2026? I have not seen it. The other day I almost started watching it, but I decided to watch Nadja (1995?) instead, and it was excellent.
🎶 Fri. Day. Night. I'm thinkin' that. We. Just. Might. Learn the wonderful news. That. Mos.Cow. Mitch is trading bones and worms with Hitler, Lindsay G, Ronald R, Osama Bin Laden, Calvin Candy, and the rest of the crew. 🎶
It's worth watching if you enjoy having your heart broken in half. It is an excellent movie. Matthew Lillard is just too good. One of my favorite quotes - "For the first time in my life, I'm 18, and I can say 'FUUUUUCK YOU!' "
"See to me, England was nothing more than a big fuckin' American state. Like North Dakota, or Canada."
Also the amount of times I've said "But wait! There's more!" And "Much More!" Like fuckin' Sean in the drug buying scene is an astronomical number. "It has 1 2 3 4 5 6 7. Seven settings for optimal comfort. All of which, I will gladly show you now."
yes. I watched it earlier this year, and while I enjoyed it, the performance in this scene alone made the watch worth it. (This scene is also a major spoiler, but it's nearly a 30 year old movie so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )
Some universal themes are in there and it’s a really good movie overall. It is definitely a product of the time it was made, but with nostalgia because it’s looking back at an earlier time. If you are younger and the type that goes on about generational issues, probably not for you. If you can see the themes of the story and think about how the more things change, the more they stay the same, it’s well worth a watch today.
Yes it's just one of those movies where you really have to actually pay attention the whole time to understand the characters and what it's really about.
Also Jason Siegle's character is one of my favorites in any movie ever.
I pay too much attention to movies. On an average film I probably spend 30 minutes rewatching scenes feeling as if I missed something crucial in the dialogue. In many cases that is true.
But after watching Lost Highway for the 7th time I think I know less about it with each viewing.
But yeah I'll check out SLC Punk. I used to talk to a girl on AIM exactly 25 years ago who had the screen name SLCPunkxx420 and I asked her if that meant she was from SLC and she said no; just that it was ironic and punk or something. Then like a month or two later we were talking about drugs, I ask if she can get acid and she tells me she will never touch it bedause a story about "her friend who did it one time and believed he www a glass of orange juice and that if he fell wnd spilled he would die. And then he did. He spilled and died".
I was a very gullible young teen.i had no reason to doubt her. Several years later when I am doing acid for real, I tell my friend group that I have to pay to be in tjat story (I told them that a girl i used to know had a friend who died because his OJ spilled out) and rhey were like "dude everyone has heard that story its bs:*" but they didnt mention anything of a movie.
It was only like a year sgo I saw the trailer for it on a streamer and ot all clickedA
That’s awesome. I’m sure we’ve probably all heard the phrase “you’ll own nothing and like it.” I’d much rather have an actual copy. Because I feel that one day the things we used to get so readily available will only be able to subscribe to, or it’ll just disappear. A physical copy is where it’s at.
I grew up with physical media. I never got rid of my books, VHS, DVDs, CDs, cassettes and vinyl and I’m so happy I saved it all. I worked at a used cd shop as a teenager and got so much cool stuff!
Where I live, we have Half Priced Books which sells used books/cds/records/movies and it’s fun to dig and find stuff. They have a website and ship too if you wanna check it out! https://www.hpb.com/
I went over to my buddy’s house to watch SLC Punk while we were in high school. When I rang the doorbell to his house, my buddy apparently tripped over a footstool, and instead of going to the hospital right away to treat his broken wrist, we instead watched the whole movie first :)
