The Class of 1999 is back!!! That’ right, those crazy kids from the American Pie film franchise are back on the big screen. Let’s forget about the direct to DVD American Pie movies (even though they did have some funny moments in all of them) because we get a new movie featuring our favorite graduating class from East Great Falls.
The American Pie movies are the raunchy teen comedy for our 30-something generation. There is a connection between the characters and their stories and how it relates to us. Now this doesn’t mean that an older crowd won’t get the jokes because let’s be real here….this kind of stuff happened to every generation. But for us, the now in our 30’s and moving on with our lives, this is our lives albeit not with the crazy things that happen to Jim.
When we first met Jim, Stifler, Oz, Finch and Kevin back in 1999’s American Pie we were following them along their last days in high school. Kevin was dating Vicky. Jim and Michelle had an interesting night when they hooked up. Oz and Heather were not sure where they would be in a few years. Finch was Finch and well Stifler was that guy that just wanted to keep the party going. In 2001’s American Pie 2 our group of friends are back from college and trying to keep friendships going that had been around for years. Relationships may come and go but summer fun with your close friends will all ways be there. Then in 2003’s American Wedding we get to watch as two kids that met in high school and stayed together through college are nowgetting married as Jim and Michelle tie the knot.
So what has happened to our favorite class from East Great Falls since 2003?
