Do you think we can make Fetch happen?

It’s a big hill to climb to show that Mean Girls is a Gen X film. It’s a product of Gen X, that’s for sure. But there’s Gen X films for Gen X (see Clerks) and Gen X films for the next group … like Mean Girls.

Idk if it’s that big of a hill. I was in my 20s when it came out and they were in high school; not too far removed. And there were a lot of references in the movie that Gen X would pick up easily that 90s kids wouldn’t. Just the names Cher and Dionne probably didn’t mean much unless you were Gen X.

Cher and Dionne are characters in Clueless, not in Mean Girls.

Better to be mixing up teen comedies of decades past than other ways our geriatric brains can make mix ups.

I thought we agreed to stop trying to make fetch happen.

Add my vote for Fletch, WTF is Fetch?, nvm I don’t care

[-]

ofthrees@reddit

I love mean girls. Easy A is another, but I've seen mean girls unironically (and no daughter) hundreds of times.

[-]

judyb103@reddit

You go Glenn Coco!

Gen X here and I know all the lines from Mean Girls because of having a daughter born in the late 90s which means I watched that movie 4,782 times.

Fetch is never going to happen.

TaintFraidOfNoGhost@reddit

I’m sorry I thought you said “Fletch” with Chevy Chase.

That one gets my vote.

Fun movie...if I'm being honest, a lot of the appeal to me is the cute girls. Yeah, I'm way older than them, but it is what it is.

I didn't know about making "fetch" happen, but we use the phrase "stop trying to make fetch happen" all the time.

[-]

tpt75@reddit (OP)

That’s kinda the same thing.

[-]

Ma1eficent@reddit

No, because fetch is never gonna happen.

[-]

I have never heard this before. The husband explained it’s from Mean Girls? I’ve never seen it.

[-]

CDM2017@reddit

Oh my god you get to watch Mean Girls for the first time.

[-]

therealgookachu@reddit

I’ll pass. I don’t like those types of films.

[-]

Powerful-Act3516@reddit

I originally dreaded watching it. It turned out to be clever and good.

[-]

therealgookachu@reddit

It may, but I inherently don’t like movies like that. I also don’t like romance, or romcoms, either, because I don’t like the story telling tropes involved with those genres.

I fully support you on this! Fletch Over Fetch!!!

[-]

We need a few more on board and then it’s a movement. I can get my brother on board fully. Unless you’re him. Fletch is always funny.

I watched Mean Girls one time. I have seen Bring it On, Sugar and Spice, and Clueless many, many times. There are more, of course, but those are the ones off the top of my head that I didn't have to go to IMDb to remember.
