Golden Globes and PG-13 Classics: Cultural Conclusions 1/12/09

Jeffrey Luppino-Esposito EDITOR

Editor Jeff is getting his wisdom teeth pulled, which PG-13 90's comedy classic should he watch post-op?
a. Tommy Boy - 30.2%
b. Dumb and Dumber - 16.3%
c. Billy Madison - 23.3%
d. Austin Powers - 30.2%

So there was this concept long ago called "Cultural Conclusions" on PopSense. The thought was-- maybe we can find out a thing or two about our readers, and make some interesting analysis on our current society and the way that pop culture effects the average 18-24 year old today. From there the idea evolved into being not only that but also a great excuse to make Keanu Reeves jokes. Then it took a turn for the absolute worst when I realized I had no friends and just needed some really simple advice on how to go about entertaining myself on a regular basis. For anyone who's wondering, my wisdom teeth removal process was a fantastic success, and I ended up just watching all of these movies, making the results completely irrelevant. I guess the point was proven though-- the spread was generally even because everyone loves all of these movies (though the numbers were disappointingly low for Dumb and Dumber, a film which I love beyond words, so I don't know how I feel about all of you right now). Anyway, thanks for the help, I promise I won't do this anymore, but sometimes there's just no where to turn, and that's what PopSense is all about. I think. That and an excuse to speak in the third person.

New Poll:
If the Golden Globes included the douchebag of the year award, who would have won?

a. Miley Cyrus for her role in Bolt
