| Turkish said: You look back at past gens, and they produced so many giants, last year many died and world took notice. Alive or dead, past generations have produced more greats in movies, music, sports, politics etc than this gen ever will: Muhammad Ali, Maradonna, George Michael, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Jean Claud Van Damme, Arnold Scharzenegger, Michael Hutchence, Michael Jackson, Prince, Queen, Freddie Mercury, Bono, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Deep Purple, David Bowie, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Bon Jovi, Guns N Roses, Tupac, Biggie, NWA Compare those with the new stars: Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, mumble rappers...? Some millenials are nearing almost 40, this gen hasn't produced much to replace the fading or the stars that are gone already. Among the common folk, all I see from millenials is false nostalgia for an era they never lived in. 80s and 90s nostalgia is the hype now with companies and people trying to capture the old magic. Some do it succesfully while others fail miserably. This current longing for the past is far greater than people in the 80s and 90s looked back at the 50s or 60s. Point is, this is the most unremarkable generation, the one after millenials is going to be even worse. You look back at past decades and they all stand out, not with the 00s or 10s. I dunno what will stand out of the past decade in 20-30 years. Both sports, music, movies, gaming have regressed. |
Correction. Sports has been so much epic. You got messi and Ronaldo in football you got djokovic, Murray, nadal, nishikori, wawrinka and federer in tennis you have sachin tendulkar, MISBAH Ul HAQ, younas khan, virat kohli, Mcculum and A B deviliers in cricket. You have to be out if your mind to think sports has regressed
