Woo! I'm the other 50%!

Primary school was amazing and so was being able to watch crappy programs without getting laughed at. God bless childhood.

If we are talking about movies the oldies ruled.

People are blind to the present so they always think the old days are better then the current times. Sometimes they are, but at others your having the time of your life and currently thinking the old days were better. You can't judge it at all until after the days are over.

My teenage years have been turbulent, fun, depressing, angsty, difficult, full of new people and experiences, and full of new freedoms. They've been more difficult than the average teen's years, but I still love them.

My elementary school years were fun, but I prefer the present.

Things started to get sucky after 2000. Things being music, films, kiddy TV shows etc...

Now. Sure, the 'old days' had Animaniacs and Alex Mack and whatnot, but that's pretty much all it has. The future is better than the past.

My childhood was traumatic, my time at school unfulfilling, and my achievements in the past amount to little beyond zero. The old days sucks. Here's to today.

In terms of video games, I would rather hear and see a fucking crazy explosion than a drone trying to be passed off as said explosion. I would like to have options, choices, adaptability, graphics and gameplay, etc... Yes, back then the focus was the gameplay, and my god was it addicting, but after so many platformers, it gets boring. It brings back nostalgia to go back and play Blaster Master, Mario, Donkey Kong NES, Jackal, Smash TV, etc... but at some point, I find myself wanting more than simple sounds and music accompanying beeps and pixelated flashes of... something.

Some music was awesome, some sucked, but I would have to say that for the most part, the music in the older days was much better than it is now. Bauhaus, London After Midnight, KMFDM, Metallica before they sucked, The Cure, Pink Floyd, Queen, Siuoxie and the Banshees, Iron Maiden, Pantera, Slayer, Fields of the Nephilim, Front Line Assembly, Soundgarden, Skinny Puppy, Red Hot Chili Peppers when they weren't so damned pop-influenced, it wasn't a crime to listen to Michael Jackson, and so many other bands... People may say that the 80's and 70's sucked for music, but than again, they are nothing but dolts at that point.

The movies were better - there wasn't an overabundance of ludicrous comedies that do nothing but reap sales via scantily clad teenage women on their covers. There was Star Wars, Scientolgy's version of Jesus first showed up, Robin Williams came by, Batman, Spaceballs, Indiana Jones, The Godfather, Edward Scissorhands, The Hunt For Red October, and again, so many more.

The liberty spike mohawks became popular, punk meant punk, not some arbitrary emo-pop band that sang about eating ice cream because their girlfriend dumped them.

The Lycra was cool.

Mountain bikes only had front suspension.

Hair was big.


So, in terms of video games, it's a better age now, but as for music, meh... I find myself listening to more old stuff than new stuff.

The rest is just about the same in ideas of how bad or good it is, though I am glad that those light blue jeans are gone now...

i like tv and movies now, and i liked them when i was a kid...new cartoons don't interest me unless they are the funny ones like...family guy/clone high/undergrads/southpark etc....tv shows now are more like movies in production values anyway (eg. csi)
in short: 'old days' good, present also good but for different reasons

Well, the old days seemed much better, but I chalk that down to mostly me being a lot easier to please as a child than I am now.

As far as movies go though; no question about it, the oldies win.

i can think to the past, but i never cherish a memory in the gap between elementary school (since second grade) and the new era that began since 1997...
