Ohhh, nostalgia. Ok, so it’s raining out, and I’m feeling a little home sick. What better way to think of the ‘good old days’ then to watch some 80s commercials. This one immediately came to mind. Toys ‘R Us ‘I Don’t Wanna Grow Up.’ I can’t tell you how many times this song has gotten stuck in my head. Seriously, who wants to grow up? And, really, who doesn’t like toys? What was your favorite 80s commercial? I can think of at least 5 more. Now onto some classic 80s cartoons. Yep, stay tuned…

The New York, Milan, and Paris fashion shows were chock full of nostalgia. The Los Angeles Times Image section took a look at fashion icons from the 1980s and decided that many of these looks ‘could, like, totally work today.’

Ah, Daniel-san. Honestly, who thinks this Karate Kid remake (which at one point was redubbed ‘The Kung Fu Kid’) has any potential to live up to the 80s classics? Judgement day is June 11, 2010. And Will Smith’s son as the lead? Jackie Chan’s in it too, shocker. I don’t know about you guys, but I’ve been dreading the trailer. Oddly enough, it doesn’t seem that bad. Check it out.

I was watching “Law Abiding Citizen” last night and one of the scenes takes place in a prison cell, where Gerard Butler’s character asks for his music. He starts eating and then proceeds to kill a man with a steak bone to some pretty cool music. I did a little research to find out what the song was, and wouldn’t you know it, it is from The Who. Enjoy the song and check out the movie “Law Abiding Citizen”!
