      Back then the studios were worried that home video sales would decimate the theater industry. So to counter act that and still make money, they charged crazy prices for home videos. They ended up being wrong about vhs but streaming 35 years later would do exactly that.

    This isn’t just nostalgia it was a time when a lot of us were under some serious spells. Yes spells are real and it can be something as simple as the lack of self awareness

    You misspelled Vol 424 instead. Not Vol 423 or Vol 433 in the title and thumbnail.

      It’s all about perception. Commercials always showed people living their best lives and having a great time. In reality, moments like that are few and far in between. But commercials glorify those good happy moments to trick you into thinking if you use or buy their product, then you’ll have far more moments like in the commercials or even your whole life will be like that. Advertising 101.
