In the '80s, everything became too serious.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I suppose I was much more serious-minded in the '70s and '80s.
I can't remember too much about the '80s, to be honest with you... I wish that weren't true, but it is.
People love to talk about how the '70s are the only time they made movies about characters, and adult movies, and complicated people. But in the '80s, they got away with some of those too.
I remember the '80s being about the Cold War and Reagan and the homeless problem and AIDS. To me, it was kind of a dark, depressing time.
I didn't like the '80s at all; it was a vulgar moment of fashion.
Really, the '70s and '80s were a blur.
There's that thing about the '80s, the '40s and the '60s, and the '30s, the '50s and the '70s. Something about those odd decades in this century that weren't too pleasant.
I'm incredibly nostalgic for the '80s, because I think that's when Geek Culture really kicked in to high gear.
The '80s seem a real positive force. The '70s were deadening, in a lot of ways.
The '80s was a really creative and brave period. Remember, it was a period of ultraconservatism, and so you needed brave people to push ahead like that.
