That About Which We Could Not Possibly Care Any Fucking Less

Hughes, John, death of.
We so don't care that, even though we know that pointing it out will make us appear old & wretched, we're going to point it out anyway.

A list of the films he had something to do with yields one I remember fondly.

Don't be shy, tell the whole class which one.

More about us than Mr. Hughes, really. Though it was interesting to note him described as the voice of a generation or whatever. First director to have that sort of specific generational influence? Just a reflection of the ways movies are marketed?

Who knows? And whatever.

Vacation. It was funny.

Everything else that I saw I recall as worthless or terrible, sitcoms running overlong.

Teen Cinema Editor Adds:

Our existence often seems like an endless (bad) dramedy.
