A rather burly 20-25 year old walked into my job just a few minutes ago and was conducting some business when his cellphone rang..... his ringtone was that communicator sound from the Power Rangers series.
(At First I Was Like)
I couldn't stop laughing. This big guy, in his early 20s, must have grown up on the series and for HIM that was a "nostalgiac cool thing" to have on his ringtone so that others of his age bracket would notice it and they'd strike up conversation.
(But Then I Was Like) :tear: Young 20 year olds are now the ones who are going to be deciding what's nostalgic for this next decade. Just like we had our revamps of TMNT and Transformers, Thundercats and more. The media targeted us for their releases as we were at the financially irresponsible age that actually had income to spare. Getting near 30 now, we're going to be phased out for Power Rangers and Beetleborgs and who knows what other shows (that we found terrible). There will be "series revamps", new feature films, action figure re-releases and a whole lot more.... I dread the next 10 years.....
