I miss when this channel used to be about films and pop culture and not just a fetishization of Gen Z tik tokers. Lately these videos have taken on a formula of talking about an old trend or aesthetic, why it fell off and why it’s making a resurgence ONLY because some tik tokers are using the aesthetics. Like there has to be more data than just tik toks. I don’t believe some of these trends are actually back because of how people choose to present themselves online differently than in real life.

Guys just stop. No generation is unique. Twee was authentic for the people who experienced at the time, but millennials are historically steamrolled by other generations, and the narrative is written by them. Gen Z is just as artificial as any other generation that’s being a teenager, and that’s OK just be even in your descriptions. For example, saying that the tweet aesthetic was superficial in a Instagram way, but I thinking gen Z blurry pictures isn’t as purposely curated to convey a certain message. It’s the same thing.

Seriously, I get that the media wants to cover hot topics and that Gen Z is currently the It generation. But what's up with everyone, especially The Take, acting like every previous generation was borderline mentally underdeveloped, way behind, and wrong about everything? In one video, you even said something along these lines: ''People born after 1996 are simply different''. - Really? Was there something in the water? Was Gen Z engineered in the lab, or what? I assume the creators of this channel are adults. Don't you see anything wrong and absurd in how you speak to your audience?

Did they not release a video covering outdated millennial tropes….literally yesterday? This channel has always been about the intersection of film and culture. I love these types of videos that map out the journey of an aesthetic from film, music and art, to online spaces, to real world fashion movements-and the social messaging that develops and is reinterpreted along the way. If you’re looking for strictly film analysis, there is no shortage of it on KZread. Go look elsewhere. Maybe you’re not in the target audience 100% of the time. Maybe that’s a good thing. I recommend being open minded to the cultural shifts and new ideas that new generations usher in.

I am so sad for this channel... it was truly my favorite when it analyzed movies/TV stories and characters... Please make the Take, the Take again

So how long until we get a video about trend burnout? Because stuff like this is what causes Ego death

I understand that we want to build up the next generation but can we stop putting gen z on a pedestal? And can we ESPECIALLY stop doing it at the expense of millennials? Why do we have to tear down one generation to lift up another. We're all just humans doing our best.

At this point, I can almost bet that cultural analysis videos on this channel will be convoluted and unfocused with an ultimately odd "take." I'm not the biggest fan of ukulele but why shit on anyone's ukulele hobby?? (4:59) And Gen Z is totally cringe (like any other era) except they're immortalizing it by posting wayyyyyyy more of their cringe moments. Also, microtrends on TikTok turn twee and other styles (90's, y2k, tumblrcore, etc) into literally disposable fashion trends that are participated in only while the algorithm favors it. This video referred to authenticity as currency... Viewing authenticity in that way will only perpetuate curated authenticity.

Having lived through the last iteration of twee. I strongly disagree that it was only for skinny white women. Definitely 99% white and mostly women, but a wide variety of body types. The dyi aspect meant that people could make or edit things for their body specifically. The mainstream may have only shown this as a skinny only trend, but that wasn't the reality of who participated. Larger body types were welcome and looked just as good in the styles. I'm a bit disappointed that there was comment in this about how gen z would make it less white and more inclusive, and then never going back into that.

I’m kind of surprised Rachel Berry wasn’t in this. I think her style in the early seasons was much more twee than Juno.

I hate that everything has a label now. My theory is hashtags have made it so that in order to Reach a wider audience every little thing has a hash tag or label. I lived " indie sleaze" without knowing that's what it was called lol I decorate how I like now it's " moody maximalism" I dunno can we all just go offline and live lol.

Was this not hipster culture? I was there.

I think often there is a over sensationalism to ‘trends’ and phrases like ‘making a come back’ are over used. Indeed a small collective are dressing this way - online- but personally I have not seen many people in real life dress this way yet, I see the Y2K more so, nevertheless fashion is more paired down and dear I say boring for my taste with most people i see on campus and in the city wearing flares and flared jeans, black north face puff jackets and trainers, I see a pool of copy and paste sadly. I personally love twee but I could be biased as this was very popular when I first began choosing how to dress myself and not just having my sisters hand-me-downs. When I was 8/9 this was how I dressed or tried to. I love the different styles online even if they are not to my taste but as I said I rarely see anything like this in persons

I have never known twee to be called twee. where I was growing up it was just like retro or other. It actually wasn't that popular when I was in my teens. Being from a very working class city in the UK stuff like that didn't hit us. trends instead came from our popular culture like excessive fake tan and over the top make up and bad bleach blonde hair from stuff like The Only Way Is Essex or the big over sized bun hair styles paired with big hoop earrings being a trend set by a character from a soap opera. I actually like a lot of the clothes considered "Twee" cus I like vintage and retro fashion. I like stuff like 50's full skirts and peter pan collars and lace up oxford brogues or penny loafers or ballet flats. I literally wear shoes like that on a daily basis. That wasn't popular when I was in school I was bullied heavily for not fitting in with everyone else. I remember when the Only Girl In The World video by Rihanna dropped the next week at school nearly every girl had bright red hair and that was the trend. Or it was a certain style of school bag or small accessories. I guess because UK schools where uniforms instead of just like every day clothes we don't really get much of a chance to fully follow trends but even then there were kids that stood out like the alt and emo girls were noticeable. But these kinds of internet trends like "twee" or whatever just didn't exist. It was either You were a popular girl, an alt/emo girl or you were nothing and you were me. Just not fitting in anywhere and seen as other.

PLEASE BRING BACK REAL MOVIE/CHARACTER ANALYSES

It’s funny, I’ve always been a little twee by accident, because I never sought it out or even really knew it was called twee until this video. It was just my natural style to dress feminine, a little artsy and a little vintage (because I got a lot of my clothes second hand, even before that became a trend in itself). I just always associated it with the Indie music I listened to, so I thought I had an “Indie” or “Eclectic” style, and I heard a lot more about hipsters at that time, so I assumed I fell into the Hipster category. But it’s funny that looking back, twee actually encapsulated my real style more than hipster or rockabilly or any other style of that era. But twee fits my style the most more than any other style, I just didn’t know it until today! 😂

To me, this is both the thing that defines twee, and what makes it perjorative. Liking bows, ruffles, acoustic guitars, mustaches, sweaters, etc. is fine. More than fine.

Shallow take, but hey they tried C- or maybe even a D

I like the idea of bringing more authenticity and realness to the trope. When I hear "twee," I think of that old American Dad episode, Independent Movie. It featured this unbearable girl who wasn't so much the quirky, unique manic pixie dreamgirl as she was someone trying desperately hard to be THOUGHT OF as a quirky, unique manic pixie dreamgirl. She was a joke. And that's kinda what the trope had become at that time. 😕

This was such a great time late 00's early 10's, absolutely friggin' adore Twee, hipster and the Indie culture / music

Older Millennial here (1985) and I've never heard of this term before in my life. I'm glad the Take said it because it sound's like rich, white people stuff to me. I hate the aesthetic and much of the music examples sounded terrible. Also not sure what crafting has to do with this trend. Plenty of us were crafters before the pandemic. Also, can we please get off Gen Z and TikTok for a while? I get talking about then because they have been influential in some ways, but this is borderline obsessive. It also kind of undercuts your message of nto pitting the gens against each other, then talking about how wonderful Gen Z is and the others were apparently backwards and misguided.

Amazing video as always. Keep up the good work. God bless you.

For those wondering. And if anyone didn't think we were smug in the 2010s, you need to watch some of your old videos or something. We were all smug as heck, whatever we were into. LOL The term 'Twee', defined as a British term meaning "affectedly or excessively dainty, delicate, cute, or quaint", is the baby-talk mispronunciation of sweet and is seen in the lexicon as early as 1905. Though the term became derogatory, it was reclaimed by the indie pop music scene in the UK and US.

God why. Its so ugly. 😑 indie also became sooooo repetitive. I was an indie fan but at the end of it it was so bloated, repetitive, and corporate that it still hasnt recovered.

Next video be like : why the take video trope is not here to stay in genz blah blah blah

🔥

Soo, that movie completely stole Wes Anderson's theme and camera style?

NO “comprised of.” Instead of “these subcultures were mostly comprised of privileged, college-educated liberals,” it should say “these subcultures were composed of mostly privileged…” or “these subcultures comprised mostly privileged…” Get a proofreader!
