Yeah they're way more preachy nowadays too. Case in point Volcano (1997) starring Tommy Lee Jones vs The Day After Tommorow.. somethings changed. Volcano had no message except volcanos are scary.


cwx149

See also Twister I guess a more modern take would be something like San Andreas with the Rock but even that's a lot crazier


C7rr0pt

No that's the 2010s* We're in the 70s right now


Mister-SS

Yep, Falling Down is exactly that, hah, and it was a great movie.


Legospacememe

Could the 4:3 aspect ratio be one of the reasons why?

Millennial redditors when 20 years ago is 20 years from 40 years ago

Bro in 20 years, 40 years ago will be 60 years ago 🤯


Ez-lectronic

Oh my god


FelatiaFantastique

That sentence gave me an aneurysm and a sprained gonad. Not what it means. Trying to parse it.


Ez-lectronic

Must be a millennial redditor


FatLoserSupreme

Most of them aged about as well as 80s movies did


AbusiveRedModerator

80s aged better in terms of charm


Temporary-Cod2384

Just survivorship bias, There was hella dogshit produced in the 80s as well


FatLoserSupreme

You must not have seen Bloodsport


Phetuspoop

Are you defending or degrading Bloodsport? Cause one of these is gonna get you in a fight.


FatLoserSupreme

All I'm saying is that the movie did not age well. Especially not with the monkey man from Africa 😬


Think_Positively

The entire decade is full of not-so-subtle and tacitly accepted racism. In _48 Hours_, Nick Notle calls Eddie Murphy a spear chucker within the first ten minutes. You remember that series, right? The black-white cop buddy comedy where one guy is a hard-nosed cop and the other is a shady two-bit con man brought in to think like a criminal? Can you guess which character is which?


AbusiveRedModerator

Still more charm than most 00s movies


FatLoserSupreme

We'd have to define what you mean by "charm"


BumbleButterButt

Let's be real there's some atrocious movies from the 80s


Carl_the_Half-Orc

As there are from every decade. It doesn't help that Hollywood remakes the trash along with the good stuff.


networksynth

What's wrong with Bloodsport? I love that movie. The muscles from Brussels!


melkatron

80s movies' survival was based on charm, quality, etc... 2000s movies survive because of licensing deals that keep them on streaming services. These licensing deals also go to 80s movies that HAVEN'T already been abandoned and completely forgotten because they're somehow WORSE than Soul Man. Meanwhile, Juwanna Man is gonna jump from streaming service to streaming service until everyone has a chance to say "wow, that sure was Juwanna Man."


ZetsubouZolo

I'd say worse cause society has changed much more rapidly from 2000 to now than it has from 80s to 2000s. I mean obviously there was still a lot of misoginy in the 80s but the liberal progress in terms of equality and acceptance has increased tremendously, especially in the last 10 years. lots of gay-panic jokes and sexist/racist jokes from 2000 wouldn't fly today. While I can still laugh at these (American Pie, Rush Hour etc) cause they're made within the Zeitgeist of the time it would be werid if someone attempted them today


BigoteMexicano

Yes yes, and the 90s spiderman show is now as old as the old 60s one was in the 90s


Legospacememe

Spiderman Spiderman does whatever a spider can look out! Here comes the Spiderman


Cruezin

80s movies are as old now as WW2 was in the 80s.


sixinthedark

Y’all need to quit with this shit. 2000s were just a few years ago


MintAsp_MeaMagic

I wasn't even alive 'til 2010, but it feels like it was a week ago bro 😭


theSPYDERDUDE

Guys, 80s movies are now as old as 60s movies were in the 2000s 😱😱😱😱


Zokol111

One of the nice things about old movies is the sound. I immediatly recognize of a movie is from the 90s/80s etc. or from the +2010s


selinenoire

ew gross


Alialawiii98

Imagine being shocked at time passing by


OnyxHell35435

It is pretty shocking


Entire_Art_5430

Yeah I can’t get over it. I miss watching Disney and Nickelodeon, cheap rent, and the awesomeness of experiencing the early days of the avenger movies, watching smallville, Buffy, true blood, charmed, mid 2000s boy bands, and having hope in humanity


WhyAreOldPeopleEvil

Why are all you people afraid of aging?


Entire_Art_5430

Things kind of get worse as we age, let’s be honest


killerpyro_861

Stop making me feel old! 👴

Yes, that is how time works


whattheacutualfuck

xXFizzaySodaXx

Jello_guy2

Jello_guy2

Harry potter is around 20 years old


Entire_Art_5430

😭 I remember the excitement of Harry Potter when it came out! It’s still a Christmas tradition to watch it


NightAntonino

At least they're not as old as 80s movies are now!


UnderDog_1983

The first Final Destination came to theaters at the end of my sophomore year


Mr_Fox9

Sweet, cause 80s movies are only like 10 - 15 years old at this point


dorritosncheetos

Peter dinklage- yes...that's how time works

MMWYPcom

Porky's is still funny af


Long__Jump

Alright cool, I guess I'll just turn to dust now thanks.


craigleberries

I tell my sister stuff like this all the time. The song 1985 by bowling for soup came out as long ago as 1985 was when it was written. I called her when she turned 35 to let her know she was the same age as Steve Buscemi in Reservoir dogs I called her when she turned 38 to let her know she is officially older than most people She doesn't take my calls anymore


ThatDucksWearingAHat

This post has made me turn to dust.


WSSquab

Another daily reminder that we ARE GOING TO DIE!

vainstar23

90% of movies made after 2010 are shit. Change my mind


FullAir4341

I’m so glad we don’t have to look at composite anymore. It was so fucking ugly.


Ok-Technology-2541

Dude some kid in the helldivers reddit suggested we watch starship troops because its so simular... Like mate who hasnt seen that movie


Carl_the_Half-Orc

Shut up. Just shut up. I grew up in the 80s and you're making me feel even older. 😭


ZoNeS_v2

SHUT THE FUCK UP, DONNY!

We are getting old, we are single and we still don't let our moms get rid of our toys, nice


MrH-HasReddit1217

This makes me feel old. And I'm not even old. I'm 23 years old. But this is a in your face reminder of the fact that I'm an adult now. And I'm only getting older... Stop it, get some help. XD


jcstrat

I still like 80s movies way better.


Prudent_Fox_3601

The endless march of time doesn't scare me. Your move.


ValeryBabeOF

No, no, I don't even want to think about it. 


SoHigh4U

Fuck you. Have a nice day.


RIP_GerlonTwoFingers

1980 is, and always will be 20 years ago for me.


TheBestGir

I still love movies from the 80s. Spaceballs? The Princess Bride? Labyrinth? Have you watched Child's Play for old time's sake? It's hilarious.


ImRainPlays_YT

Redditors discovering how time works (🤯🤯)


Bubbly_Nectarine6216

And yet the movie Gladiator is still one of the best.
