Remember when you had to research something, you actually had to go to the library and dig around in encyclopedias?
My parents bought the Encyclopaedia Britannica, but it was basically useless for any of my high school porjects. I did enjoy the yearly Books of the Year - they generally had some interesting things in them.
I quite enjoyed David Lynch's Dune movie which was Kyle Mclachlan's debut and also had Sting in it as Feyd-Rautha: I think I enjoyed Denis Villeneuve's more though. It's very much in that tradition of The Lord of the Rings - cinema is a different format and can't capture the depth that's in the novels and they had to change some things because of that, but they've done a wonderful job of capturing the spirits of the books.
There's this other strange trend lately of reviving old series - not remaking them, but revisiting them at a later date. Did Fuller House start that?

I remember when Thrifty’s ice cream was a NICKEL for a one scoop cone! A three scoop cone was only 15 cents! And Madonna had not had any plastic surgery yet!

I remember when we used cool phrases like gnarly, tubular, etc.
And someone who was good-looking was a “fox” or “foxy.”
