Was that Vee was supposed to be born in '99. Really? Emma Roberts is 26, and looks it. She does NOT pass as being 17, not even a little bit. She looks way too mature, and her mannerisms are too "grown up" as well. None of her friends seemed like they could be in high school (or just graduated) either, except maybe Tommy. It was driving me crazy through the whole movie.
shareAgreed. They should've made them college students instead. But I personally think Emma actually looks quite young for her age..
shareShe was only 24 when it was filmed, so between that and makeup/wardrobe/styling, it was an invisible non-issue for me. On top of that she's cute as hell, not to mention being smokin' hot in that green dress--which should have been listed in the cast credits. Green Dress played by Emerald Sparks.
I found the lack of perverts more unrealistic.
I don't give a f*@K about a troll who doesn't pay for his opinion telling me how to review movies.
She could pass for 16 easily what are you talking about?
I believe this movie takes place in 2020 so she would be like 21 but she said that she's 18 turning 19 so maybe she's born 2001 (like me hehe)?
shareNo, I believe the setting is today, 2016.
shareDefinitely said 2020. I think the 99 was just a random handle rather than a birth-year thing, otherwise that's a bit of a obvious goof!
shareI think it was set today and she was invited to be in the Class of 2020 as in that's when she'd graduate from CalArts
shareOhhhh!! Yes! You are right! I remember thinking might be the case whilst watching it but then it got filed as 'film mentions 2020'. Well done you!
shareToday I Learned...
How the American saying, "The class of [year]" comes about.
It's baked in from the start.
Here in the UK, we rarely use the phrase.
