Amen to the 80’s.

July 27th, 2003 by

I am very glad that I somehow managed to live the entire 80’s without much media influence. So much about that decade just doesn’t settle well with me. The clothes, the music, the attitude, the hair, the giant shades, the shoes and the incredibly large amounts of jeans used up.

Yes, the Breakfast Club is a great movie. Yes, Back to the Future is from the 80’s. And yes, Indiana Jones too.

I don’t know how that happened. It’s like the cast, directors, crew of such great works were still hung over from the 70’s and cleared up in the 90’s.

Either way, it works for me.
