What do comedies today reference?

they reference 80s-90s comedies of course

>>211482307
Why don't they reference 00s-20s comedies?

>>211482320
>00s-20s comedies?
There is Euro Trip, and... uhhhhhh... hold on...

What even constitutes modern pop culture? All referential humor nowadays seems to only be referencing politics.

DUDE WHITE PEOPLE

They reference the rizzler and john pork

In 10 years, nobody will reference the 2010s-2020s. Why? Because there's no more shared cultural experience. There's thousands of shows out there, almost all for a tiny fringe audience. Nobody watches TV anymore or goes to the cinema. Everybody streams. So there's really nothing you could talk about with your school friends or colleagues.
It doesn't help either that scripts these days are utter shit and stories forgettable. They just string action scenes together and edit it so that so much stuff happens so quickly, your brain fails to process what happens and also doesn't trip over the dozens of plotholes. Example: I could tell you what happend in "A New Hope" after watching it, but I couldn't do the same with "The Rise of Skywalker".

comedy stopped in about 2012 after 21 Jump Street came out. everything before that was from the Age of Vulgarity (Idiocracy, Team America, Dodgeball etc.) so couldn't really be referenced without constant "Yikes... this did NOT age well..." cutaways

Superbad, Napoleon Dynamite, Knocked Up, Scary Movie series, Purge series, Click, White Girls... need I go on?

There is though? Most zoomers played Minecraft, most zoomers have watched Mr Beast, most zoomers listened to Billie Eilish, most zoomers use a mix of black, LGBT, and incel slang
>Everybody streams
Yeah, the same stuff. Most zoomers saw Stranger Things, Squid Game, and Wednesday

Even the past era you're comparing to had heaps off nonconformists, oddballs, and weirdos.

>>211485739
Yes, but that's not shared culture like "Encounters of the 3rd Kind" or "Jaws" or something that was watched by more than just the young generation. All the stuff you quoted is exclusive to zoomers only. That's not shared culture, that's shared subculture.

kek its kino!

>>211485844
Not sure about that, ST and Squid Game are absolutely huge. My mom watched both and Wednesday.

Music is different but pretty sure that's always been subcultural. Same with slang.

I feel like references to zoomer shit will always be labelled as "cringe" by both zoomers and old people alike, so people tend to either avoid that by referencing something older than zoomers, or trying it anyways and faking the backlash. When was the last time you saw something reference a modern thing or event and weren't immediately turned off by it?

We'll find out when Scary Movie 6 comes out next year

>>211482293 (OP)
>Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)
>Homie the Clown (1995)

this. and modern culture moves too fast for the show's production schedule. write a joke about current event now and a year later once its made and released it won't be relevant anymore

>>211482293 (OP)

They aren't. It's just those are the only ones you get, because you're unintelligent and lack an education. Sad

>>211485568
because comedy is how you mend race relations, like Rush hour and lethal weapon. Obama repealed propaganda against Americans in 2012.

Baskin rocks and JigC funds.
That's just the way god made it. And kek, is it kino!

I didn't get half the references because I was a kid but I still found them funny

my son keeps coming home saying ballerina limousini skibidi
