give me examples of tv/film that purposefully aren't set in any particular era. stuff that makes you think it's the 70s, but then they have modern music, for example.

 CRIME Shirt $21.68 |

Sex Education was like that. Heavily influenced by John Hughes movies, so it felt very 80s but in a modern setting. Also a giant high school in the middle of fricking nowhere felt strange
The movie 'Her' is set in the near future I guess but people dress like its the late 60s or early 70s.
>Near future
>beach full of white people
It Follows was supposed to be modern but then they’d be watching everything on old ass TVs and then would have pic related
Detroit
>It Follows was supposed to be modern
No. It was anachronistic on purpose.
that's what i was saying, and the point of the entire thread. it felt modern besides a few strange things that stuck out
Tenebre by Argento is meant to take place in a vague future after a nuke killed off a lot of the population.
It Follows is intentionally doing the thing OP is looking for.
clearly you don't understand the midwest at all
>Idaho
>midwest
oh yeah huge difference
nta btw
idaho is pretty much the same as eastern washington. you dont think washington is the midwest do you?
perhaps flyover state is the term
this was set in the current day at the time. some places are really behind on the trends like that.
Archer, its all over the place with cold war, yuppy 80s shit and post soviet crap in no particular order.
Tim Burton Batman movies
pretty much all the furniture and stuff felt 70s 80s like a grandma's house
Does Homestar Runner count?
I always liked its world where late 70’s wood paneling never died out.
literally just the midwest
it's idaho. and i lived in the midwest for most of my life and it was nothing like this
This, it was just supposed to be a little town in Idaho in the mid-2000s. It's just that everything is a little bit outdated and still had stuff from the 80s and 90s, trends take longer to catch on the further you go from big cities. Also Kip was talking to Lafawndah on AOL instant messenger which was huge in the 2000s
i don't think they ever showed it was AOL instant messenger. Kip makes reference that it costs money with whatever he uses, and Uncle Rico is shocked
okay dork it was a deliberate design choice on the part of the director
Ed, Edd, n Eddy
That was set in an acid trip mind.
The joker I guess
These are both set in specific eras.
lol yuo got troll'd!!!!
based!!!!
Archer
Best example I can think of. No one knows what year this movie takes place in.
not a movie
The film adaptation was the same.
There was a TV show? I read a bunch of the books and saw the movie but don't remember a TV show at all
The 2004 version was. Also OP said TV or film.
Also I'm trans
Same, but Uncle Du'Quan says I'll never be a real woman. Me and mother love this kino, though.
this wasn't that at all
It was making fun of that portion of rural America.
Maybe OP is an urbanite who has never experienced whiteness.
i don't know, i think they were definitely aiming for something stranger than "oh they don't know any better". the clothes especially. also i grew up in the midwest but i know this is Idaho
Death Proof
The Royal Tennenbaums came out in 2001 but the characters all wear clothes from different eras and everything is simultaneously old-timey but modern.
That's just what the midwest was like in the 2000's anon. Idaho in particular was exactly as it is portrayed in this film.
The Fear Street Trilogy
Enemy
Made in the 80s in Seattle but it seems to be set in the near future during some kind of economic and political crisis, but half the characters act like they're in some kind of 40s or 50s film noirs, but there's are also 80s poppy kind of scenes like Divine the drag queen playing a man (!) and a crazy party at some rich guy's house.
It is one of the weirdest movies I have ever seen.
It Follows has no specified time period, it feels like a mixture of 70s & 80s but there's modern technology at times, it's done on purpose for an otherworldy and dreamlike feel
Extremely kino atmosphere
I always thought Robocop was contemporary but apparently it's supposed to take place in the 2020s?
>win an action packed trip to detroit
