Your generation in movie form
Somewhere around here.
Eliza Dushku is this generation's Jennifer Love Hewitt.
but... but....
They're the same age.
I'm sure me means Hilary Duff or something.
Ah, Gremlins was great. But no, Home Alone is definitely more of a Christmas movie.

Christmas Movies that Aren't
1. Batman Returns
Family tradition. We always watch Auntie Mame while decorating the tree. It has a Christmas scene as iconic as any. Is it a "Christmas Movie"? No, but for us, yeah, it is.
Love that fucking film. No homo.
Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.

2. Die Hard
There is hope, but not for us.
Trying really hard to think of films which encapsulated my teenage experience at the time. The 'coming of age'/teen genre seemed to die a horrible death at the end of the 90s/early 00s, but most likely it was Donnie Darko (which came out in the UK when I was 15...and remember people at The Cult analysing at great lengths!)
...Just remembered that was set in the 80s... Oh well.

No, at the store Dollhouse Season 2 is right next to The Ghost Whisperer Season whatever. The two look freaking identical only Dushku is younger so that's where I got that.

That is completely illogical. 1) Eliza Dushku isn't a very popular actress, for that matter neither is Jennifer. 2) It takes more than a year to separate generations.

You just accidentally supported my statement with this even though it is clear that you are merely trying to argue at this point.
2) It takes more than a year to separate generations.
True, but they are not as close in age as you claim.
It's a new Christmas movie!!!

I don't see the support. And yeah, I said they're the same age because I figure they're close enough, but since you said one is younger, I checked, and Eliza is in fact a year younger. It still doesn't place her in another generation.

eliza dushku doesn't look anything like whatsherface!
Love it. If we found out Santa was real and a monstrous beast that kills naughty children, would we stop celebrating Christmas, or would we just kill Santa and keep telling our kids the same stories, celebrating the exact same way?

Thank you! I sadly forgot the name of that movie, but it's one of my all-time favorites. I haven't seen it in 10+ years, as there was a ban on old movies that were not Disney related by my ex. That and Gigi were seminal movies of my youth.
Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
For the record I would bang both JLH and Eliza Dushku.
what the heck?
Singly and/or jointly, eh, what?

For clarity.

Not This:
(1974 - Starring Lucille Ball)
Okay!

Yes.
I didn't really watch movies when I was a teenager.
what the heck?
Some men can be very controlling. My daughter like Disney movies, though. So they were allowed, because daddies dote on their little girls.

Duh! The other one doesn't even count!

I am watching it right now!

Goonies is also probably one of mine.
I wasn't even aware of the existence of a film with Lucille Ball as Mame
You were better-off not knowing.

Total Recall.
I'm from the future btw.
I think Goonies sort of trancsends generations. When we took the kids to Cannon Beach this summer, they saw Haystack Rock and imediately ran off telling eachother about finding One Eyed Willie's treasure. It was beautiful.
I visited it while they were filming. I asked my grandma what all the cameras and stuff were for and she said "Oh, probably some movie we'll never see." Man, if only I had known Corey Feldman was there. He was my boy crush back then. Ahh, to be nine again.
Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
James was living in Astoria at the time, I think he must have been six or seven, anyway, in the chase scene on the beach, when there are all those other trucks having a race, one of the trucks in the race was theirs. Orange Chevy, 70 something, the one leading the race, can't miss it.
Edit- they were living in Seaside.
But Gremlins > Home Alone
