In Pop Culture
- In Back to the Future; which took place in the 1950s; Jazz music was being played as it was the ubiquitous genre for live band based dancefloors prior to the time period the movie took place at. However, when Marty comes up to stand in the position of the guy with the hurt hand, he eventually plays the song Johnny B. Goode; but then sees the hardship of compensation of the song and ends up saying I can't guess you guys are ready for that, but your kids are gonna love it; which references the aforementioned rapid transition to Rock and Roll as a dance genre.
- In Idle Hands; a live band is used for a dancefloor with fans of punk music.

“There is no comparing the brutality and cynicism of today’s pop culture with that of forty years ago: from High Noon to Robocop is a long descent.”

“I don’t pop my cork for ev’ry guy I see.”

“With respect to a true culture and manhood, we are essentially provincial still, not metropolitan,—mere Jonathans. We are provincial, because we do not find at home our standards; because we do not worship truth, but the reflection of truth; because we are warped and narrowed by an exclusive devotion to trade and commerce and manufacturers and agriculture and the like, which are but means, and not the end.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
