American Pie: 5 Things That Have Aged Badly (And 5 That Have Held Up)
For a whole generation, watching high school sex comedy American Pie (1999) was one of those seminal teenage experiences. A modern update on raunchy National Lampoon-style movies from the 70s and 80s like Porky’s (1981) and Animal House (1978), many of its most quotable lines quickly found their way into the popular lexicon. Everyone was talking about the things they did “one time, at band camp” and pointing out that their friends’ moms were MILFs. It really raised the caliber of the public discourse.
