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.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The '80s seem a real positive force. The '70s were deadening, in a lot of ways.
The '80s were fabulous. The '90s sucked, and the '70s were just a sad, sad time in human history. Go 1980s! There's something that's just so cute about that time. And not just yellow nail polish and 'I'm a loner.'
I'm incredibly nostalgic for the '80s, because I think that's when Geek Culture really kicked in to high gear.
I don't know if the '80s were unique, but we certainly got original, groundbreaking stuff at the time with movies like 'Back to the Future' and 'Star Wars' - movies that became classics.
I have very fond memories of the '80s; they were very formative years for me. I certainly remember the Cold War. It was a closer doorstep for the Brits than the Americans, so it was a very real and palpable threat at the time.
The '80s was a wild decade, and I had some fantastic times. And I did some really fun work.
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 didn't like the '80s at all; it was a vulgar moment of fashion.
I can't remember too much about the '80s, to be honest with you... I wish that weren't true, but it is.
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.
