But you're moreso thinking of late 90s early-mid 2000s, right
eurotrip, american pie, scary movie, freddy got fingered, jackass the movie, etc.
it's that turn of the millenium pop-punk mallgoth attitude
>pop-punk
oxy-moron
>oxy-moron
sucky-fricky
punk has always been trash
nothing like a bunch of 60 year old boomer punks telling people to be cool with trannies, muslims and women
>late 90s early-mid 2000s
We have to go back, best time of my life.
Great for the early 00's but the late 00's belongs to pic related.
dude r u moronic? the movie was about robots. i think you mean disturbia. but no i'd say pic related is more core 00's
When exactly has the mainstream interest in martial arts and eastern mysticism died and why was it so sudden?
People realized karate was bullshit when MMA got big
Isn't karate one of the more legit and practical ones? I'm not really into fighting, but I imagine its not on the same level of bullshit as tai chi, tae kwon do, kung fu and stuff like that.
pretty sure jujitsu is the most practical and best. i think thats who ended up winning most mma fights in the early days but idk fs bc i don't follow anything mma.
we still had chink movies even within the last decade. ppl don't like watching asians, thats all. even the monk movie was about a white guy
Iron Man was bigger. Seeing as Marvel capeshit dominated box offices for over a decade after it.
the movie you posted
A porn I watched when I was 12 cause I knew where the VHS tape was hidden. I remember nothing about it but I saw breasts so win.
>Deryck finally stops drinking
>Sum 41 decide they're gonna quit forever in 2024
What did he mean by this?
it's hard to choose one so instead i'm going with The New Guy
The Hot Chick too. It was the 1st time I saw Rachel McAdams even though she was briefly in it. Holy shit.
I'd also put Old School, Mean Girls, Road Trip, Saving Silverman.
OC and Everwood really captured the 00's well. As did One Tree Hill though that ran into 2012 and should've just ended when they graduated high school.
2010-2012 was in some ways a hangover from the 2000s, like how 2000-early 2001 was for the 90s.
I know. Every early years of a new decade always has the previous decade's lingering influence.
And when people talk about a decade, it's always divided into 3 parts:
1) The rollover from the previous one (1980-1982 still being 70's, 1990-1991 being extended 80's, 2000-to September 2001 being continued 90's, so on and so forth.
2) The middle years which is where the decade truly asserts its own identity and what people typically typify it as. 1983 to 1987 is usually what people associate the 80's because of hair metal, leg warmers, etc. Nirvana kicking it off in December 1991 so that 1992 to 1996 you had all sorts of grunge getting popularized, Biggie and Tupac with the East vs West rivalry, girls wearing those chokers and boots.
3) The tail end of the decade. Usually the last 2 years are when you see something evolve. It's still a lot like the middle years, but more refined and smoothed away from the transition period and that's what will rollover into the new decade.
The Hot Chick had me actually fricking rolling on the floor in some scenes. Our bar was set so fricking high back then we considered it to be trash but the humor is actually non stop and raunchy by today’s standards.
It’s only problem was spending 5/6 of a movie getting you to like Rob Schneider’s face and then swapping it back onto an insignificant antagonist right at the end so you’re left watching all the side characters hug some b***h who was barely in the movie while your favorite character gets hauled offscreen by the cops.
Yup. I was in 8th grade when that movie came out and it's amazing how the writing and style of comedy is non-existent today.
I've been on a 90's binge and just finished watching The Mask of Zorro as well as Face/Off and Con Air. Why the frick can't we have action movies with this kind of heart and soul? The first 10 minutes of Mask with Anthony Quinn as the original Zorro was fricking kino. Face/Off and Con Air both depicted flawed yet badass male heroes who fought for what was right and they earned their happy endings. I fricking shed manly tears when Travolta's character brought in his sworn enemy's son to take in with his family or how Cage's character finally got to meet his daughter for the first time.
>the first 10 minutes of Mask with Anthony Quinn as the original Zorro was fricking kino
>with Anthony Quinn
I meant Anthony Hopkins. Didn't realize my mistake.
It's ok buddy. I was just teasing you
picrel sums up the 00's really well
LOL, np. I'm just fricking exhausted from work and studying.
And shit I forgot about this until now. Yeah it really did capture the essence of the 00's very well. Amazing how this film kick-started a lot of careers. Really liked that cute redhead that McLovin fricked. Why hasn't she been in more stuff?

Alice in Chains fricking rules. Nirvana. Smashing Pumpkins.
Then that Whibley pussy had to come around and ruin it all. Like there's something wrong with wanting to have a good time.
I'll tell you something. I hated the fricking 2000s.
2000s fricking sucked.
The 2000s was the last good decade before the second cultural revolution, it’s like the modern 1950s.
It truly was. You could get away with women being sexy on commercials, TV/movies, magazines (remember Maxim?). Liberalism wasn't full moron back then.
everything after 9/11 was and is a cultural wasteland.
it has no value or longevity.
nothing.
zero.

>blond women exist
Why does this image make brownoids sperg out so hard
why would that make brownoids seethe? more white women for them to blanda up with
I think that specific picture reflects a lot of indian men’s first experience when they come to western universities. They see a whole room of white women, it’s almost overwhelming, the exact thing they’ve been fantasizing about for years and it’s right in front of them. White women, just like in the movies and the thousands of hours of porn he’s watched. They’re even more beautiful in person!
Then they realize real life isn’t like porn, white women aren’t actually prostitutes that you just say hi to and they’ll frick you. All those girls are dating tall good-looking frat dudes, and Rajesh isn’t actually going to get laid. And they they feel tremendous rage about this.
You're colorblind and most of those women have chemically lightened hair.
See? Here’s an example now
Yeah 9/11 was a crippling blow to the US psyche culturally and economically. But we still had some good moments after it.
Things didn't really go to absolute fricking shit until I'd say early/mid 2010's when everyone loves being a victim and suddenly being white is considered the source of all evil. Being able-bodied? Frick you and your privilege. Fat is considered beautiful. And a dude wearing a wig and dress can go into women's bathrooms and locker rooms where underage girls can be.
I’d say things were pretty good until 2012-15
Yeah that's early/mid 2010's. Somewhere around that time, we went full moron. It's a massive Clown World.
I remember man, it was like a switch flipped. I think the Trayvon Martin thing was the dividing line.
My senior year of high school was 2012, our whole friend group went to the beach right after school ended and some of us guys were casually joking about Trayvon. One of the girls absolutely lost her shit, screamed at us, told us we were vile racists and might as well just join the KKK, refused to speak to any of us for the rest of the trip. This was a very normal girl we had all known for years. The intensity of it was just shocking. It was like you could feel the culture changing during the Trayvon case.
>I think the Trayvon Martin thing was the dividing line.
That definitely was a game-changer. Don't forget there were other incidents like Tamar Rice (the cop was a fricking dumbass in my opinion) and Eric Garner which fueled the fire.
I think people were too hyped up about Obama being the 1st non-white President (people forget he's actually half from his mom's side so he's really biracial) and believed too much about his hope and change. He really wasn't that much different from other politicians.
True, and people forget how much Obama changed between his first and second term. 2008-12 he was the most milquetoast centrist Democrat imaginable, and in his second term he took the mask off and leaned hard into idpol and proto-wokism.
Identity politics and wokeism are probably the biggest cancers that modern society has to deal with. I'm not an insensitive butthole; I get that certain demographics have the deck stacked against them sometimes. So I try to give everyone a fair shake, but when I step out in the real world and interact with everyone, it makes me realize there's a reason why stereotypes exist.
no
everything after 9/11 was completely throwaway. I'm sorry if this coincided with your childhood.
;_;
Occupy Wall Street had a lot to do with it, where the vitriol and the insanity went up tenfold. We'd spent all the post-9/11 years hearing about the wars in the Middle East and the people profitiing from them the most and just when a new leader comes in touting 'Hope' and 'Change', the stock market shat itself and he bailed out major corporations without even so much of a thought to the people keeping the economy and country alive. Rumblings of class warfare was picking up speed as one of the first mass protests seen in ages occurred. Then the narrative immediately shifted at that one moment before a violent catalyst happening from class to race warfare, because fighting against each other doesn't threaten their profits. Compound that with the Iphone coming out, Facebook and Twitter coming online, Big Bang Theory debuting as The Soprano's wounded don and its just been moron after moron taking up space on the internet.
Yeah it's amazing how fricking cucked liberals became once their talking points got shifted easily. I'm no Marxist nor am I a corporate shill, but having taxpayer money bail out these major businesses without serious oversight pissed me off. You can't say you're for free enterprise and capitalism when you require government money to stay afloat.
>because fighting against each other doesn't threaten their profits
No, but forcing woke bullshit is making normies tired now which is why Disney, Target, inBev is getting fricked over. Don't insult your consumer base. That's Business 101 but I guess they got too wienery after diverting from class warfare to identity politics.
I'm a 90's kids too and I agree how amazing of a decade it was but don't sell out the fricking 2000's. The 00's was the last time things made sense in the world even with the War on Terror and all the political bullshit and the economy tanking in 2008. I'd relive the 2000's all over again than deal with the last 13 years of pozzed shit.
Like I said earlier, the first half of the 2000s was just the extension of the late 90s.
It's the second half that sucked when zoomers were old enough to be aware of things, which is why most "2000s nostalgia" threads is always about some baby cartoon from 2008
2003-2012 was “the 00”s and it was kino
>2010s were part of the 00s
No.
what is this zloomernial cope
The first year or two of a new decade usually have leftover influence from the previous one. 1990 and 1991 carryover elements of the 80's just like 1980 and 1981 do for the 70's. I can see the argument for 2010 to 2012 being part of the 2000's cultural sphere seeing how 2000 and 2001 have 90's influence.
2012 and 2002 mays as well be 50 years apart in terms of cultural changes and technology as well.
I see what you mean, but say a teen was in an accident and put in a coma from 2002 to 2012, when they wake up, they're not going to be completely in the dark. They'll recognize that a smartphone is just a much more advanced cellphone that has Internet connection and other nifty features like GPS, very good camera quality compared to 2002 phones.
It's the wokeism that would probably turn them off the most culturally.
Okay and a time traveler from the 1970s or 80s would still recognize "a phone" and computers
>It's the wokeism that would probably turn them off the most culturally.
that and all the schizo incels
Yeah but someone from the 70's and 80's would be completely out of their depth when trying to deal with a 2012 computer and smartphone. The theoretical 20something who wakes up from their coma would easily pick up on the 10 years of wireless, cellular, and computer advances that it wouldn't be all that hard. They just have to Youtube a few videos and then that's it.
I mean shit, the 1999 film American Pie had webcams and streaming (very primitive) compared to 2012, but people were aware of it back then.
>Yeah but someone from the 70's and 80's would be completely out of their depth when trying to deal with a 2012 computer and smartphone.
Not at all, no. the UI and everything is much more user-friendly for the average person rather than looking up BASIC code in a manual.
Even someone relatively well-educated from 100 years ago wouldn't think it was some wizard's magic, they had telephones and phonographs back then as well as moving pictures
So you’re one of those people who gets really triggered by the term “woke,” got it
nah I recognize that there's two sides to the useless culture war.
The way we culturally understand decades doesn’t always line up with the exact years, as others have said in this thread
“The 50s” was actually 1946-1963
“The 60s” was 1964-1972
“The 70s” was 1973-1982
“The 90s” was 1993-2003
“The 00s” was 2004-2012/13
You could argue that we’re still in the ‘10s cultural moment, as defined by the Great Awokening and the Trump revolution
>You could argue that we’re still in the ‘10s cultural moment, as defined by the Great Awokening and the Trump revolution
Yup though covid is our 9/11 moment that might have killed off the 2010's.
>The way we culturally understand decades
>we
I have no problem understanding how years and numbers and decades work actually. 2013 was not part of the 2000s.
even from your bullshit "hey man, numbers are just a construct man, look at the culture" perspective
what's the common cultural thread between 2004 and 2013? Were pop punk bands still making anti-Bush songs in 2013?
“The 00s” refers to the period
>post-9/11
>pre-Great Awokening
>Before the total saturation of social media
It’s really not that hard to understand.
>the first half of the 2000s was just the extension of the late 90s
Kek no it wasn't, zoomie
The 90s ended on 9/11.
I choose a TV show instead
This is core 00’s, not late 90s/early 00s
I agree tho
>core 00's
That's what OP asked for
Malcolm in the Middle is very 00's
Does anybody else miss the way girls dressed and looked back then?
Orange County really had its moment in the 00s.
Sort of like San Francisco in the late 60s, Miami in the 80s, or Seattle in the 90s.
CALIFORNIA HERE WE COME
STICK MY DICK IN BUBBLE GUM
People only watched the 1st season
The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift
Kino
Matrix. It's not that Matrix looked like the 2000's, but that movie decided what is cool for a big part of the decade.
The most 2000s Batman of all time
If Katie Holmes had returned this would be a 10/10 perfect movie
But then Heath never would've had to push his acting ability to the limits when faced with calling Maggie beautiful, and thus wouldn't have carried the move so spectacularly
True i heard that single line is what drove him crazy
scary movie 3
Definitely.
Just saw these guys live last week.
The lead singer's nose isn't fricked up anymore, the indian guy is jacked. The others i didn't really notice.
They put on a good show
tropic thunder was pretty good
Matrix trilogy
Blade trilogy
The Ring (JP and US)
Spy Kids
that's 4 movies
If you pick 1 movie then it becomes 1
i don't have to pick
you do
in fact it's actually 9
unless you're not counting all 3 spy kids movies from the 2000s
in that case it'd be 11 movies
>If you had to sum up the 2000s
Not even TWO PERCENT of the 2000s have happened yet, and OP is going to sum it all up
Orange County
Pure zillennial kino
gently reminder they were never really that big aside from the in too deep pool video on mtv
although second album definitely ride the momentum with new singles and then they appeared on spider man
still they were little thing compared to other acts out there and were pretty much already forgotten past 2001 or early 2002 therefore not very representative of the decade so far
something completely braindead and throwaway that I can no longer remember.
Sex Drive Unrated
its a mid movie but the unrated is 10/10 kino. They leave in bad takes of the actors breaking, they have naked women run across the screen for no reason, they do weird editing shit like having a character say "yeah" over and over.
Queen of the Damned
Can't Hardly Wait
I've actually seen most of the movies and I can definitely stomach these than what Hollywood churns out today.
I liked Juno, Devil Wears Prada, Mean Girls, and Bring it On
Literally the definitive 00s film.
>Women writers aren’t funn-
>If you had to sum up the 2000s with just one movie, what would it be?
Nothing.
The 00s were the first soulless decade.
00s "identity" is just 90s inertia.
Actually, the 2000s was the last soulful decade.
90s is already stretching it.
00s was just a blander 90s.
Which was just the 80s without the cocaine.
God those Jonathon Davis vocals when he sang were awful. Did not fit at all.
Yeah, so out of place. Kinda like his cameo.
The 00s were so kino.
When did it all go wrong bros? 2012?
1988 baby. I fricking loved the Checkerboard era of Cartoon Network and the Powerhouse was amazing too.
Lost
I just L O S T the game
Crank
Shrek
>If you had to sum up the 2000s
Best movie ever
actually this one, starts off all fun and ends horribly. Even included an xbox demo for battlefront on the dvd.
Hmmm Eurotrip or Harold and Kumar go to White Castle for me.

Yeah, that'll do it for me.
Speaking as someone who was a 2000's teen, does anybody else remember those nude pics of that hot redhead girl in 2003 with very nice breasts? Some of the pics had a Twister board in the background. I legit miss the amateur girls from the wild west days of the Internet before camwhoring took off.
No but I remember that video of the girl dancing topless in her closet to that Ciara song while eating a banana

Pure millennial kino
Van Wilder had this weird post 90s vibe to it because it was made before 911 but released shortly after it.
Joy ride
Early 00s were very different from the late 00s though.
Not as much as the early 90s was from the late 90s. Taken feels like the same decade as Oldboy. The Matrix does not feel like the same decade as Army of Darkness.
Dude, Where's My Car?
Real answer? Obama diversified schools by encouraging district restructuring, I.E. black schools now have chunks of their neighborhoods in other schools bus routes. That and refugees.
