This is what is going to happen to this entire last generation of children when they grow up and realize they had the worst decade in music in the history of man.
Check it out, I totally sliced the beats of three of these good songs up and I made one pile of shit. I don't even call it a song or movement in my monologue, it is a 'beat'
I wonder how many of them actually will realize that. The power of nostalgia is pernicious and terrifying, and anything can seem awesome in retrospect just because you first encountered it when you were young.

Let's be real here though. Seriously real. I try to think of that perspective, but when you have stuff like Indiana Jones 4 paling in comparison to the trilogy even amongst youngsters. When you have Terminator Salvation only considered decent due to it's hitting of nostalgia from its past movies, at some point we have to realize, we went by something amazing.
Musically, we have some decent stuff, but as far as creating new sound, and something that inspires generations, you're not going to find that in todays rock and roll, hip hop, metal, or even pop. You're not going to have the revolutionary sounds of rock and roll and heavy metal of the 70's, the lead guitars of the 80's or the synth pop of Jackson, Collins or the rest of the 80's.
Have you even seen anything close to the way all that was brushed aside with Grunge and Alternative in the 90's? Half of those bands are still going, with nothing new to really sweep it aside. Music is so desperately trying to go BACKWARD than forward, because it doesn't know where to go.
Films are doing the same way. Even something as ridiculous and unique a family movie it was, do you think we'll have something with the pace, music and dialogue of "The Goonies" if remade today? I honestly think this decade has lost any sense of iconic direction, and sense of self, and it's enough to make any of us throw up.
