Not that bad. My wife jokes I'm old because I saw Lord of the Rings in the theatre. But I remember seeing Spice World in the theatre which predates it.

I remember renting the Spice World movie, but I don't recall anything about it except that there was an alien.

The only thing I remember is it has the spice girls in it. Nothing about the plot at all.

There was a pretty impressive drum kit. That’s all that I can remember at all

Is this the same poster who got banned from a comics comm for repeatedly insisting on stiffing the artist of any credit?

Sorry, I didn't notice. I couldn't tell if this was an edit or the original either, because this comic got turned into a meme format ages ago. And no, that wasn't me.

No. This is definitely not the same person. This is one of a handful of superstars that make Lemmy good.

The spice girls have a cheerleader affect in my brain, like I know they were all hot but I can't really remember any details about them except like different hair colors

Get off my lawn...

Excuse me while I turn to dust and drift away peacefully on the breeze.

Sporty was meh, but the rest were super fit. Funny seeing Ginger on Drive to Survive series, married to Christian Horner formerly of Red Bull's F1 team

When I saw it in a theater, the film broke during the trash compactor scene. My poor mother was like "oh well, time to go home" but I was having none of that.

I never saw "Gladiator." I actively avoid "Titanic." on principle. I haven't seen "Fight Club." Or "Pulp Fiction." Never saw "Avatar." Missed "Up," "Tarzan" and "Lilo & Stitch" Haven't Caught "Point Break", "Reservoir Dogs" or "Constantine" Haven't seen a single Rambo or Rocky movie. I could go on... I'm in my 40's.
