1020 groupies rejoice! That booth where you had one too many tinis is now famous. The latest prep school misfits movie, The Art of Getting By, stars Emma Roberts (the one from Aquamarine—which maybe made you tear up that one time) and the Wes Anderson look-alike from the trippy version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Isn’t it terrifying when kids in children’s movies get old?
Anywho, The Art of Getting By looks kinda sucky. But fast forward the trailer to 1:47 and check out where the happy couple is spinning?! Our very own 1020. Fact: this could not happen in real life because Emma Roberts’ pretty little head would be impaled by a dart.
And you may recall that Will Ferrell once freeze-frame peed in our favorite haunt. Basically 1020 is universally acknowledged as a dive bar. We’re weirdly proud.

@Anonymous wow they made 1020 not look like complete shit. impressive.
@Mikey That’s definitely 1020. And no one ever gets impaled by darts, or even poked for that matter.
@Anonymous No bed bugs in the trailer?? Doesnt seem accurate without them
@wow I remember seeing emma roberts in “unfabulous,” a typical teen dramedy on nickelodeon that was on like 10 years ago. she really hasn’t changed that much!
@oy! emma roberts! almost as great as emma watson. though i’d still rather take the later.

@1020's greatest customer I <3 TIM
@You also probably enjoyed frontiers of science.
@Anonymous travel channel filmed there yesterday. doing a show on dive bars. let’s hope the drinks stay cheap.
@Anonymous Yeah I feel ya. I hate the idea of leaving the area to find another bar. Our name isn’t safe outside the shire.
@well our IDs definitely aren’t. turns out bars in chelsea don’t accept fakes with holograms that literally just say “authentic.”
@... you are truly deluded if you think people would travel to come drink in morningside heights.
@omg y duz this movie take place e verything in mside
@Anonymous AUGUST RUSH
@Yet more proof that fraternities cannot read.
@bwog where is the continuation to the electric toothbrush story? get your act together!
@Wow. You guys REALLY like “time the subtle thief of youth” as a tag, don’t you?
@... are you surrrrrrrrrre it’s 1020? the edgebanding on the bar does not look right…
@confused Is my perception of age all wrong, or was that movie populated by 15 year-old-people doing 26-year-old-people things?
@idk It seemed more typical high school/teen drama to me. Pretty sure 26 year olds don’t go to school and spend tons of times wondering if they should ask out their classmate.
That said, it looks like a cute movie.
@WHY Why do they keep putting Tom’s in the background of garbage film and tv. It’s only encouraging them. At this rate, they’re never getting a credit card or flex machine.
@10twizzy Is the type of name Tom Haverford would give 1020
