I mean, look at this piece of fan-art and tell me that isn't the badassest thing ever: http://www.theraider.net/community/museum/gallery/indy4_art/damien_may_01.jpg
As a former high school English teacher myself, this one remains my all time favorite.
I taught kids like this....if they'd put half the effort that they put into failing splendidly, they would have had straight A's.
You wouldn't believe it. If someone did a montage of it, they'd need to add Kate Hudson, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and Harvey Weinstein (if he's isn't in it already) to it by now...
By the way, it's spelled 'veritable.'
Yeah, I thought I remembered a PlayStation reference, but that's just about the only one. And "PlayStation" means the same thing today that it did ten years ago, and, knowing Sony, it'll still mean the same thing ten years from now. PlayStation 5, by that point, I suppose. Twelve thousand dollars.
Does it really matter, what year(s) the story takes place? JKR was careful not to litter the books with too many pop culture references, which would have dated them (see the Shrek movies). Throw out the 1492 mention, and the story sounds like it could be present day, and it just as easily sounds like it could have taken place a hundred years ago, or a hundred years from now. It's really kind of a timeless story.
