Saturday Night Live parody.

In 1993 Saturday Night Live did a parody commercial for "Macintosh Post-It Notes". I can't find anything but this very poor quality video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q-BH8j06pM Bizzybody (talk) 11:06, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (1997)

Under the "Art" section of the article, there was no mention of the use of Post-its in ROMY AND MICHELE'S HIGH SCHOOL REUNION (1997), where one of the main characters has a dream in which she claims to have invented Post-its. Actually, both of the main characters claim to have invented Post-its in different parts of the movie73.96.116.248 (talk) 10:42, 13 February 2019 (UTC) to prove that they've done something important with their lives.

Just a thought. :) IMDB page for ROMY AND MICHELE: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120032/?ref_=nv_sr_1

Clearly Post-its are important to the plot of the film. But does that mean that the film is important to Post-its?

I don't think so. Post-its are used as a signifier of a useful, profitable but obscure invention. Much as Mike Nesmith of The Monkees, whose mother invented Liquid Paper. But that invention could be anything. If the film was re-written to refer to silly putty or Loom Bandz instead, it wouldn't change the film. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:25, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

That section, anyway, is about uses of Post-Its as an art medium, not about pop culture references to them. Largoplazo (talk) 12:04, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
