I think it was the opposite! Sure, maybe he did have to "grow up" and go to school and become a professional business man. But he clearly still believes in now what he believed in then. He's just trying to work it into a way to fits in the system so he can live a life. He's rebelling in the system by being a lawyer who challenges judges.

I watched this movie in high school, in the mid2000s, and absolutely loved it. This was around the time I met my best friend, the dude who introduced me to awesome music, films, and literature. We had so many great memories together. Bob's death didn't make me cry at the time, but rewatching now, my best friend being dead for about a decade, I couldn't help but cry. This scene never resonated with me until now. I miss you, Jared.

19 and turning 20 in August felling kinda aimless in college rn, I just found this movie and wow does it hit home. Such a great and deep film with good laughs, really made me analyze things about myself and my life right now and has me trying to push more toward my goals and trying to set them more clearly. I cant stress enough how much this movie encompasses how i have been feeling, especially him toward the end of the film. I also think it really expemplifies how alot of kids my age are feelings right now. Wish more people could see it, thank god for film preservation.

I love how bittersweet this ending is. Bummer that Bob died, and as a punk enthusiast myself it's always kind of sad when people move 'out' of the tribe so-to-speak, but the older I get the more I appreciate the idea of growing beyond the self-imposed limitations of a particular ideology, whether it be anarchy, religion, political left or right, socialism, nationalism, consumerism, anti-consumerism whatever. In the end I think it is the ultimate 'fuck you' to society to be able to find a niche and a way to live within it without necessarily adhering strictly to the narrow mindedness that comes with fully embracing societal standards.

This movie has one of the best reveals. When it flashes back to Stevo and Bob as kids and you see that Stevo only ever took on the punk persona because Bob developed that attitude. He was always a "poser" and follower. Bob was the true punk, but once Bob died, Stevo had no reason to live that lifestyle anymore even if he did gain some worldviews from it.
@alienalibi2382

I think you missed out on a lot, Steve-o was just having fun listening to what he likes (rush), Bob was the one who brought up the doubt and self consciousness. Why do you think Bob punches mirrors? Because Bob know's he is a "poser". At the start of the movie we see Bob as someone who is self aware and well spoken but towards the end of it he devolves almost into a party persona. The acid trip steve-o has and that talk with his friend the satanist paints a clear picture. Once the acid trip happens I feel like Steve-0 finally starts seeing things in a new way, rather than the highly black and white, almost fantasy like believes he had prior to that.

@@alienalibi2382 The entire point of the flashback scene to their childhood was to show Stevo was the follower. Despite all of his monologues about what is and isn't punk/anarchy, he didn't have a clue. He followed his friend to keep his friend. Bob's death was to sever his ties with a world he didn't belong in.

Res a lot to say about SLC punk but the easiest and simplest thing to do is point out that I’m a lifer and having spent some time in Utah at the beginning of my getting into punk, I don’t remember seeing ANY punks in SLC or Logan, or Brigham City, or Paradise, or anywhere else in all of Utah over the 3 summers I lived there with my Dad. I barely remember seeing any punk anything. The only thing I remember is the gas station shirt I bought with a Green Day patch on it which I still have 30 years later

My two best friends in the world loved this movie. They were brother and sister. He was shot by the police almost a year and a half ago and she died a couple days ago. I still don't know why. Suicide maybe but I don't want to believe that. We have a 5 year old and 3 year old together. I finally told them that mommy is never coming home last night. And here I am. The last one. Maybe I can make a change like this.
