“Firstly, why would children born in the mid-late u0026#39;80s (ergo too young to appreciate the music of the time) want to have had u0026#39;80s music at their original graduation party, let alone at a re-do of it?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSecondly, why did the producers choose the absolute worst of u0026#39;80s music? Was it that the good stuff was too expensive to licence? Or was it that the producers were too dorky to know the difference between hit and s*it?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFinally, why the mumblecore? If youu0026#39;re making a movie, itu0026#39;ll be viewed by people who have a real life and a real social life. Mumblecore might be great for those who live their lives buried in Zucku0026#39;s world, but theyu0026#39;re not going to be watching a video any longer than three minutes; they simply donu0026#39;t have the attention span.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe concept was different enough to have been able to make this a passable – even a decent – movie, but the execution fell waaaay short.”
