Movie Ages

The 2011 Guide to Making People Feel Old

-Using Movie Release Dates-

[A chart with 2 columns. First column is labeled ‘Their Age,’ and is numbered 16 through 35 & ‘over 35.’ The second column is labeled ‘You Say’ and is divided into four sub-columns. The first sub-column reads ‘“Did you realize that…’ from 16-35, and the third sub-column says ‘Came Out’ from 16-35.]

Age 16: Snakes on a Plane… Half a decade ago?”

17-19: Revenge of the Sith… More than half a decade ago?"

20: Finding Nemo… Eight years ago?"

21-22: Shrek… Ten years ago?"

23-25: The Matrix… Not the last decade, but the one before that?"

26: Toy Story… Over fifteen years ago?"

27: The Lion King… Seventeen years ago?"

28: Jurassic Park… Eighteen years ago?"

29: Terminator 2… Twenty years ago?"

30-32: Home Alone… More than twenty years ago?"

33-35: The Little Mermaid … Closer to the moon landing than the present day?

Over 35: “Hey, did you see this chart? You match your age to movie - oh, right, sorry, it only goes up to 35. I guess it’s not really aimed at older people.”
