Do you have to be German to be accepted generation-wise?  I mean that there is an ideal for a generation, and Germans are also very idealistic in that manner.  I mean after seeing Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971.)  Also, why is it too late to be like that?  Generation X was denied to identify culturally like Late Boomers; however, it is important for Late Boomers to for their own reasons.  It is hard to believe that everyone likes things like that because they professed otherwise, just to surprise people like me later into being seen as spoiled for liking it and therefore being better at it; in the end, the good people are seen as spoiled for being so cool and no one cares about them anymore, they just care about the bad, greedy, foolish people.  England started with liking the bad people because people think being bad makes more fun, maybe because the rules are too tight and there isn't enough fun and good things like before in history.
