That really is alarming, especially with the wealth of information (and torrents!) available online. There really is no excuse. I mean, I just turned 20 in Feb and even I can't understand it.
Different strokes for different folks... I guess?

hahaha!
I had to work on this kid's short once, called
Johnny Jewel, and the
entire plot of the film was an undercover cop tied up in a chair, in a warehouse, by a crazed gangster who slices his ear off.
I asked him, "Isn't this a little bit like Reservoir Dogs?"
"No. No way." (I can't quite remember exactly what he said)
I just shrugged. He even had an older gangster getting mad at the others, just like the Joe character in RD.
I shit you not.
It's even funnier if you consider the questionable originality of RD.
