Re: Things you never could have predicted

As for Superhero films, DC are owned by Warner Bros & Marvel by Disney so it's not surprising there have been a lot of films made.

Especially after so many other successful film series in recent years.

There had been the odd fly on the wall documentary but it was the late 1990s docusoaps that made reality TV such a big thing.

Re: Things you never could have predicted

yep totally agree with you there mate.

Also the amount of reality shows now.

When growing up in the very late seventies early eighties there was no such thing.
AS WELL AS HOW MANY SUPERHEROES AND VILLANS HAVE V SERIES AND FILMS.

i would never have believed we would have so many tv channels. I grew up with 3, then channel 4 in the 80s and channel 5 in the 90s. And a giant flat screen tv on the wall would have been unreal! Our tv was black and white in the 70s. It's crazy how quickly technology has advanced! It's like something out of the film total recall! Next we'll be having johnny cab taxis!

Re: Things you never could have predicted

The start of multi channel TV was when Sky started up, & in places lucky to get cable, my parents didn't have anything like that until 1999.

Also the cost of TVs has come down so much in real terms, certainly looking at the old Argos catalogues I was surprised at how much a basic TV cost in the 1980s.

It's unsurprising that people rented sets until the 1980s, as my parents did until 1984.

The end of deep coal mining in Britain.

Our armed forces cut back so much that even the top officers are beginning to squeal (remaining mostly anonymous of course).

Foreign owners of former British companies shouting loudly, then watching even our own Prime Minister jump up indirectly shouting "Yes Sir!!!! Three bags full, Sir!!!"


People born in Britain having less rights than foreign nationals.

Re: Things you never could have predicted

I was surprised by vinyl coming back, at one time it looks like it would only survive as 12" dance singles, LPs for the sort of people who could afford to spend £1000 on a turntable & some indie labels.

Lucky for me I kept my Dad's old turntable, mostly to play all the vinyl I bought cheaply in the 1990s.

Re: Things you never could have predicted

OH NO YOU WHERE PERSUASDED TO GIVE IT AWAY.

IM NOT SHOCKED ITS MADE A COMEBACK.

YES THE LEICESTER CITY COULD WELL WIN THE PREM LGE THIS SEASON I WASNT EXPECTING IT COULD HAPPEN BUT IT WILL BE A NICE CHANGE.

That my precious vinyl collection that I was persuaded to more or less give away would make a comeback
