Has the director been in a coma during the 90s?


no actual witness of the year 1994 would have shown the calibri font (released in 2007) on a computer screen or used the prodigy's "firestarter" (released 1996) in a movie that's supposed to take place in 1994.

I don't have a problem with Firestarter. Since when you can't use a song from 1996 as a soundtrack in a movie set in 1994? It's not like the characters played the song in the movie, that would be different.

Because I'd be like playing AC/DC in a movie that takes place in 1969

because the soundtrack is full of hits from '94 and earlier, trying to evoke nostalgia for that specific year. "firestarter" is musically from a different era (yes, back in the 90s two years could make a huge difference).
