      Best decade in the history of mankind sounds like a bit of a stretch. The 80s sure produced great entertainment out of the US and its lackies like Japan and Europe. But around the same time crime, war, anarchy, economic turmoil throughout the world was also at its peak value unlike previous decades. Most people during the 80s contemplated the collapse of the US. Had the Soviets not dissolved their Union by 1991, the US would have spiraled and imploded from ballooning spending on military and what not, the way it is happening today.

    While I was growing up in the 90s and the 2000s,I did watch a lot of 80s movies as a kid,so I do miss the 80s cool aesthetic.
    Can you also do a video on 80s cool cartoons? Cartoons from the 80s and 90s that had many of these 80s cool elements,as well as badass theme songs in the intro (I think stuff like Transformers, TMNT, Biker Mice From Mars, M.A.S.K., 1992 X-Men, 1994 Iron Man, 1993 Speed Racer, etc. would fit that category).

    • @LifeofSlicey1
      @LifeofSlicey1  4 місяці тому +5

      Biker Mice was a cartoon I had on my mind when I made this video. I don't think I could put myself through the torture of watching those old cartoons again. X-Men is still great, but 90% of the cartoons from that era don't hold up without extreme nostalgia bias. They were definitely a big part of the 80s Cool story though.

      @ZP1993 4 місяці тому

      @@LifeofSlicey1 Yeah,I agree,I tried to rewatch some of the cartoons I watched as a kid,and while some are still fun to watch,others don't hold up. X-Men is great compared to most others,though that could be because it introduced some of the new elements that later became standard for 90s cartoons (more serious stories, more complex characters, Wolverine as an antihero protagonist, etc.)

      @@ashleybanks-wm4cg I disagree, most 80s cartoons were just lenghty ads for toys, with very basic scripts. After The Simpsons came out, the industry changed towards absurd/ironic humor and that worked a lot better for US cartoons (until the late 2000s, where it was clear the US cartoon industry was having trouble to think outside the animated sitcom model). The influence of anime (which took a while to actually become popular in the US) is also important on how scripts became deeper in the 90s/2000s.

    I'm an aspiring cartoon creator who wants to create shows that just ooze with 80's, 90's and a bit of early 2000's pop culture (be it inspired by cartoons, anime, tv shows, movies, games, comics, etc). This video is nothing but awe-inspiring for me, I'm glad i came across this
    Top Gun Maverick is what really got me back into cheesy action. It really helped me find my style. It taught me that i don't need to make a morally grey, philosophical and extremely deep anime that seemingly only appeals to miserable nerds and activists who despise everything vintage, i just need to make something that i would enjoy, and a show that resonates cheesy 80's action is absolutely what i enjoy (apologies for the tangent)
