I haven't seen these interviews, but I have seen the actual movie, which I'm sure you and most of the people in this thread haven't. I just posted links to a couple of the interview so....... You think I'm constantly shifting through your debate about which celebrities endorse Trump to find Olivia Wilde quotes? Here's one I managed to dig out: “I think [Booksmart] reflects how fluid young people are today, and I was inspired by them. They’ve rejected the binary terms we use, and they’ve just said, ‘Look, we’re going to think about it differently,’” she said. “And, by the way, no one is saying, ‘Give us credit for this. Look at our wokeness.’ It’s effortless. When I speak to these people, I realize we [older generations] are dinosaurs.” She said the exact same thing I said. Today's kids being super liberal and whatnot is a *reflection of reality*. The fact that she endorses that reality is besides the point. Though if John Hughes hated 80s teenagers, I don't think those movies would have been as good. And since you've already gotten on the "since I'm not sh*tting my pants about there being gay kids in a teen comedy set in 2019, I must support Wilde's politics" train in your last reply: for the record, I only believe in two genders and think this non-binary stuff is ridiculous. And I pretty much hate third wave feminism. But I'm not a 17 year old girl from LA. And back to me having the benefit of having seen the movie, I don't even know what her non-binary quotes are referring to as that never really comes up. I guess the skater chick the main girl is attracted to was supposed to be? But I just figured she was a tomboy. So that'll show how forced and hamfisted a message there is.
