Do you think in 20/30 years we'll be seeing a wave of nostalgia for the 2000's
Do you think in 20/30 years we'll be seeing a wave of nostalgia for the 2000's
No because pop culture has become so derivative. People will continue to have nostalgia for the 70s, 80s and early 90s, even if they weren't born then, because these are the decades that all of current pop derives its rehashed material from.
nostalgia for a post-9/11 USA ruined by Katerina, real-tv & opium crisis? lol ok
I LOVE NEW YORK CITY
Zoomers are already nostalgic for 2000's right now
He’s got a point. There’s still tons of nostalgia for the old west, 20s, 40s, etc... but on the other hand there was nostalgia for earlier eras even during those eras.... watch midnight in Paris
We love you Andrew
How do you culturally define the 2000's
Like when I think of the culture of the 2000's I think of 9/11,Britney Spears,The Invasion of Iraq broadcast live on 24 hour news,Andrew W.K,Jackass and Limp Bizkit
that's all anyone remembers of the 2000's
We're already seeing this with zoomers now, posting VHS filter photos on their instragrams etc even though they've never even seen a VHS in real life.
The truth is, now we live in the age of information, there is no nostalgia, no psychical media exists. Everything is reboots or upgrades of things that have existed as long as young people have been alive.
So young people associate nostalgia specifically as the nostalgia of the generation before them, not actually the things from their youth, the things that they've seen other people call nostalgic
'oh vhs and polaroid photos are so nostalgic' - Yes but only if you actually remember them, they're not intrinsically nostalgic regardless of your relationship to them.
The time of the tranny will be looked on with disgust.
Even the Leftists of the future will look back on this time and say that SJWism wasn't real leftism.
well zoomer nostalgia for the 2000's will be different depending on the type of zoomer
zoomers are between the ages of 5-24(that's a big age gap)
so older zoomers watched who were teenagers during the 2000's watched jackass and MTV when it was on its last legs
while younger zoomers who were children or babies during the 2000s mainly watched Disney channel original shows like Hannah Montana and wizards of Waverly place
I fee like most of those were more late 90s. 2000s was more reality TV, garage rock revival and indie.
2000's were just whiny moping, why would anyone be nostalgic for that? "Hey, remember being sad? Those were the times"
well I do remember that Andrew WK was super popular for a couple of years in the early 2000s.and then he just stooped being popular for some reason
Zoomers already nostalgia on 2000s.
nah that was during the late 2000's early 2010's after the 2007-2008 financial crisis
Yeah but it will take another 20 years for people to recognize it in hindsight
the y2k aesthetic is just as distinct as the 70's, 80's, or any other decade. Even as we speak the look is coalescing, and in a decade it will be back just like the 70's came back in the 2000's themselves.
The style is more popular underground as forward looking artists are keying into what's next, people in their early 20's remember the 2000 with rose-tinted glasses and their art will come to revitalize the era by defining it and celebrating the new millennium attitude.
Skeuomorphism uniting the digital world and our own as one, a postmodern return to decoration for it's own sake after decades of nihilism and minimalism, a focus on new materials and textures brought about by technology, everything is sleek and transparent and colorful electric light glows everywhere, but unlike the present there is still soul.
I think in a decade or less many of these trans kids will realize its bullshit and sue/murder their sjw parents for destroying their lives.
as you well know, the cycles get shorter so the wave of nostalgia for the 2000s happened like 2 years ago
basically this
The early 200's aesthetic is bland and sterile because everyone wanted everything to look like a fucking iPod.
I miss it, and I can't wait for people to remember.
The ipod is derived from y2k aesthetics. Much like The Matrix is just a full length version of late 90s music videos.
it was great right
I thought this was DFW in the thumbnail
Looks like an Ikea. The 80's aesthetic is much more exciting and the 90's is comfy. the 200's was an awkward in-between decade that began the endless recursion back to the 80's that we're still living through.
I NEVER KNEW GIRLS EXISTED LIKE YOU
Totally off the mark. Just sit back and wait until creatives put y2k back on the menu and it will become your kid's favorite decade
The y2k aesthetic may resurface but a huge part of it was due to a lack of technological prowess that prevented a minimalist aesthetic. Everything was big and chunky because it had to be.
Now that our phones, tvs and devices in general are all so slimline, we're not going to be going back to the bulky tech look of the 2000s. People aren't going to carry a brickphone around in their pocket for the sake of fashion. No one remotely sane will anyway.
We will definitely see the resurgence of fashion motifs from that period (mid 90s is everywhere right now so another 5-10 years and we'll be mid 2000s fashion) but the clunky ad chunky aesthetic that defined the period are gone for good.
the y2k aesthetic was 98-2001
no-one wore anything like what models wore
we had that weird emo/scene girl fad up-until 2005 that died off after 07
thats just a show room
You underestimate how much the 2000's aesthtic was bound up in Apple. Nobody trusts apple anymore and it's not like streamlined appliances are any more novel now then they were back then. The most notable thing about the 2000's was the war on terror and the first wave of 80's nostalgia.
still use my laptop from 2007
Its 13 years old
I miss the Nokia communicators that were popular during the turn of the century. Imagine what kind of technology you could fit into this form factor using today's technology.
anyone over owned one of these
It was literally the era when things started getting small because of technological prowess. The decade of the iPod and the iPhone.. It was a time when tech was celebrated, not hidden. Technology has evolved but you're right, the look will come back and forward thinking people are already on it.
Apple was inspired by an existing movement in aesthetics, and was an example of the look thriving.
The Apple that people distrust is the Apple of the 10's, the Apple you're referring to is etched in history as a milestone.
There are of course a million things to remember about the 2000's, that's like saying vietnam was the only thing that happened in the 70's. Btw the 2000's were all about the 60's and 70's, 80's blew up in the 10's.
>2000's were all about the 60's and 70's,
70's nostalgia was all but dead in the 2000's. And I don't think bland streamlining has the appeal that you think it does.
I miss the weird gadget look everything seemed to have. You could always see the internals and there were wires and knobs and straps on everything.
The 2000s... Yep, that was a good decade
MySpace and scene and Emo kids.
The rise of memes.
>That 70's Show
>Charlie's Angels
>Starsky & Hutch
>Austin Powers: Goldmember
>Grindhouse
>Star Wars prequel trilogy
>bell bottoms jeans, fur coats, pimped out rides
yeah ok
>>That 70's Show
>>Charlie's Angels
>bell bottoms jeans, fur coats, pimped out rides
90's.
>Starsky & Hutch
>Austin Powers: Goldmember
Made by out-of-touch executives in the first part of the 2000's who didn't know the fad had passed.
>Grindhouse
Wasn't that big, and Tarantino always jerks off to the 70's.
>Star Wars prequel trilogy
Star Wars had 2 movies in the 80's and one in the 70's. It wasn't tied to the decade.
that fella is one of the most overrated musicians (?) of all time
Ehh nice try but I agree the 70's were huge in the 2000's
I wouldn't even call him overrated
He was popular for about a year and half in the 2000's and then just wasn't popular anymore
very few people actually even remember him
Remember when James Bond drove a car with one
70's nostalgia lasted from 1997-'99 before petering out. 80's nostalgia got a big boom from post 9/11 patriotism and has been steady ever since.
Based WK is still making music, appearing on TV and was even at E3 to promote Rage 2.
youtube.com
I mean, this is a mildly stupid question but I can kind of understand asking it seriously.
Yes. Of course. People who were young in the 2000's will live out that nostalgia when they're in their 30's and likewise when people become creatives in that age range they'll make stuff accordingly. The people who were just a bit too young to have actually lived it will form that not actually accurate view of it as well. Just like every generation.
It's no different from how every aging burnout thinks whatever the youth of today is into is stupid and destroying their minds, not like the things they grew up enjoying
I'm so tired of revivals.
70's got really big in the 2000's, you're thinking of the 2010's
They already feel nostalgic for the 2000s. Shit, I was born in the 80s even I get nostalgic for the early and mid 2000s when there was still decent shit coming out of pop-culture.
>70's got really big in the 2000's,
Where? it was all 80's nostalgia after 2002.
>That '70s Show
>'90s
wtf
>nostalgia for a post-9/11 USA ruined by Katerina, real-tv & opium crisis? lol ok
People who grew up in the forever war have no frame of reference to when that wasn't the case, it's their normal.
I mean do you think 80s or 90's nostalgia exists because those times were just so fucking awesome? I lived them and I wouldn't want to live them again, just thinking about the clothes I wore gives me hives.
It premiered in 1998.
nigga i already miss scene girls
The 80's was the last true /fa/ decade.
AWK is one of the most significant figures in pop culture, and one of the only people I actually like
I like to think Andrew WK in a Roth-era Van Halen way.
He had a moment around the turn of the millennium. Sadly, it didn't last as long as it should have.
This
the best part of the 2000's was that their were so many goth chicks,anime chick and other alt-girls everywhere
Sure they werne't super common but their used to be a couple dozen of them guaranteed in high school
I can't remember the last time I saw goth chick
Goth chicks are easy to find at goth concerts.
Scene girls not so much.
>'70s
>'90s
I feel like you aren't paying attention
'70S NOSTALGIA WAS POPULAR IN THE '90S
THAT'S THE FUCKING POINT
I don't wanna go to goth concerts,I wanna see them as a part of everyday life
an example of nostalgia being bound by relativity is if you'd said Miami Vice was peak fashion without a picture I would have said yeah I wish I could look like Colin Farrell
Goth always comes back in some fashion for an amount of time. Remember, we're heading into the RaWring 20s.
For me it was Tabby
Nostalgia for past decade takes about 20 years. So, yes.
70s was big in the 90s for a while; 80s were big in the 00s/early 10s; 60s was big in the 80s; etc. etc.
Good choice, friend.
The 90s were awesome, yes; and I would relive it again.
>Goth always comes back in some fashion for an amount of time. Remember, we're heading into the RaWring 20s.
I pray for it
I want a new generation of goth chicks not just white goths O want Arab Goth chicks,Black Goth chicks,Latino Goth Chicks e.tc
There was an attempt at reviving a subculture of goth called #twentyninescene this year. No doubt we'll see it in the 20s.
They're just chameleons that know how to integrate into society now.
I wouldn't ever care If Social media influences bring the goth/emo scene back I just want a goths to come back
I agree.
I'm so fucking tired of art hoes and other thots. That's why I was happy the "big tiddy goth gf" meme took off.
BRING BACK THE GOTH BITCHES.
>They're just chameleons that know how to integrate into society now.
A emo friend of mine actually Joined the marines specifically because of the Punisher Max series
he used to be a skinny emo kid with long hair and black nail polish and now he acts like a frat-bro all the time
Such an underrated and cozy movie.
the current 90s nostalgia is dead on arrival so i'd expect 00s nostalgia to come along within the next five years
Shows like Breaking Bad and BCS show the 2000's through a literal modern lens. It's nice not seeing a smartphone used in every scene.
Andrew is what we need more of
In the age of post-post-ironic everything where people have depression 'but ironically' his sincere and uncompromising positivity is a breath of fresh air
this gif makes me feel like i'm a kid again
im 19 and somehow i still get late 90s nostalgia
how about:
>the rock band/guitar hero fad
>the dukes of hazard movie
>black dynamite
>vinyl becoming relevant again
just admit you don't know shit about what you're talking about
i sometimes feel like the time from 1990 to 2010 can be split into 3 parts, like 1990-1996, 1997-2001/2005 and then 2005-2010
now we have smartphone with foldable screens that are basically like this, but better
Nothing memorable happened in the 2000's.
>1990-1996
we just won the cold and gulf wars now we have no one to fight so we'll all be slackers and listen to grunge music now.
>1997-2001/2005
britney spears pop quickly gives way to angry nu metal war on terror crunk music era. freedom fries.
>2005-2010
the dark ages. katrina, obama, the financial crash and occupy. iphones and autotune.
Shut up Andrew and get back to cleaning, some one made a mess in aisle 3
Unlikely.
The 2000's was a pretty bad era. It only looks decent if compared to the politically correct hell that is the 2010's.
But it was nowhere near as good as the 90's.
>90's nostalgia exists because those times were just so fucking awesome?
Yes.
Watch any TV series from the 90s (think of Malcolm in the Middle) and it looks like some fucking utopia compared to right now.
at least stuff happened in the 2000's
the 2010 were just a horrendous boring clusteruck that were infuriating and I'm glad its ending
70's show rose to popularity in the first half of 2000's
Just reversed image the guy literal nobody, all I could think of when I saw it was the actor from heroes season 1
>Watch any TV series from the 90s (think of Malcolm in the Middle) and it looks like some fucking utopia compared to right now.
back when lower middle class meant you could still have a decent sized house.
Honestly, it depends on what you mean as nostalgia because there were some fashions and bands that were pretty coool.
I think the 20s might see some 1920s ripoffs and wearing lots of fancy clothes will be the in thing to do. Yoga pants are out and now hoop dresses are in. I feel like women are getting bored with the male attention thing and are more into personally looking good and succeeding in career anyway.
that's Andrew WK
>bands that were pretty coool
Other than "The Killers" and "Muse" what exactly the 00's produced?
>Watch any TV series from the 90s and it looks like some fucking utopia compared to right now.
>Friends, Seinfeld, Home Improvement, Cheers, Everybody Loves Raymond, Mad About You, Dawsons Creek, Party of Five, 3rd Rock From The Sun, Wings
I'd sooner eat glass than sit through that shit my parents loved again
The greatest band of all time.
I love Andrew WK but he never made a real impact on the Industry
I could see zoomers going
>Ah man I 'member the Chris Evans Robert Downey Jr era of marvel movies, after that they all went to shit.
As if all these marvel movies weren't absolute shit.
DIGIMODIFY-FY-Fy-fy
I think of WT Snacks and Cracky-chan.
the people who know the truth about him, aka those in the industry, they try not to think about it too much, it scares them. if anything they want to forget
I was 11 when this song came out, and I LOVED it
how embarrassing
man i remember when the cracky motherload as found and she was forced to make a statement
I'm already feeling nostalgic of 2000s aesthetic.
So yes.
AWK is the only person I've bothered going to see live more than twice
nobody else has even attempted what he accomplished except for Sleigh Bells, and they didn't pull it off
The Devil's on Your Side is alright. I heard someone describe him as beer commercial music, though, which seems kind of accurate.
why does it always look good on girls but always ugly on guys
I already have nostalgia for the 00's. Especialy 2000-2004. The early 2000s were a trippy/weird time that was like the last breath of the 20th century, and had a mysterious/cool feel that 2004-present just didn't have as much.
People often said "The 90s ended in 2004", since 2004 had a lot of changes that screamed "the 00s culture is here" and the late 90s influences were fully dead:
>Nick and Cartoon Network cancelled all the 90s shows
>The re election of Bush
>Approval ratings of Iraq began to dip
>Movies like Team America began to come out that were disillusioned with the American Dream
>People began to get over 9/11 and the "Bush is stupid" schtick began
>WWE begun transitioning to Cena and Batista and PG crap
>Emo overtaking nu metal
>Crunk rap overtaking glam rap
>Myspace getting popular
>Web 2.0 coined
>Friends finale
>Laguna Beach started
>Release of Nintendo DS
>Broadband overtook dial up for the first time
>Last full year of 6th gen gaming, before 360 came out next year
>iPod became popular
>TechTV murdered by G4
Do you see waves of nostalgia for the late 60s/early 70s? I dont, except from underage hippies, as those old enough look at this are with nothing but disgust and regrets. That's how current age will be viewed in 30 years.
nobody else who makes "beer commercial music" has ever sat in as drummer for To Live and Shave in L.A., I promise you
youtube.com
Also the chicks from that time just looked hotter, but maybe that's just me.
t.same user
You sound like a bitter turd.
i miss the Internet feeling like a big mysterious place where you'd follow the link highway all night and end up in places youre sure no one else has explored yet. the current internet feels like it is all funneled through like 5/6 megasites and there is no feeling of exploration or "space" anymore. pre 06/7 internet was like final fantasy viii's gameworld, and post 06/7 internet feels like ff13s. idk i suck at analogies and descriptions, but zoomers who missed pre smartphone/social media internet missed out on the comfiest internet.
The Internet feels smaller because it IS getting smaller, as more and more sites get bought up by the same Google/Amazon/Whatever giants and more and more people use the web while less make their own content. I remember people making their own websites for themselves with Piczo, now people don’t even bother with custom Tumblrs with those fancy themes because everyone has Twitter or Instagram with 0 customization. Like the other user said it’s sterile and the same shit all the time.
I was born in 96 so I hardly remember life without the internet or a computer but since the mid 2000’s the internet and its culture has changed so much and absorbed other parts of my life I don’t want it to be in (I liked it for fandom things,Conspiracy theories and gaming but now it’s for news, politics, celebrities, jobs, can’t even befriend someone in real life without eventually being given their social media or referencing obnoxious memes when I used to feel like such a cool kid for knowing all muh trollfaces). I think: "there has to be more to life than this" and that thought gives me hope that I can exist without needing to be online all the time. Maybe the poor fucks who were born after 2005 will find some kind of instinct that will make them look beyond the internet that seemingly gives them everything.
It feels really pathetic whenever I reflect on my interactions with friends and discover most of what we say is shit about memes, "oof", "big F" and trying to verbalise reaction images because we forgot how to talk like… whatever came before this. I don’t even feel human. Am I a fucking NPC?
I dunno man the fact those people who lived those times and loved them would be in their 70's might influence why you don't bump into their often
we're being trapped in a recursive loop
I GET WET
good analogy desu, i know exactly what you mean. i miss those angelfire fansites and obscure band websites with little graphics and multiple sections, now when you type in a song, google displays the lyrics at the top of the page automatically, you get all the info you need without having to actually click into a website.
The 2000s was blah though. What stands out? Futurama? Boy bands? Spoof movies?
That wave of nostalgia will begin right after 2020
Screencap this
someone should sceepcap this whole thread for future reference
just wanna say i also miss slutty scene girls
life was better then
So do you “know the truth” or are you talking out of your ass?
To make you feel a little better me and my friends were making in-joked about things that were I guess proto memes(?) back then. The earliest ones you might remember are the rise of 1337 culture and the slow crawl of electronic music into the mainstream after the later Prodigy albums but before Tiesto DJed the olympics. I interact with a lot of zoomers due to my gym and they aren’t that much different if you get them to start talking about things they care about, it only contextually sounds weird if you don’t know what they’re referring to. Most of their entertainment is created by guys like me so I can appreciate the subtle nods to my generations influences.
This has been a constant thread topic on /fa/ for the past 4 years. You haven’t predicted anything lol. Early 2000s nostalgia will be full mainstream by 2022. The clothing brand vetements already made it ok to ironically wear clothes from the early 2000s. The normies will follow along just like the rich asian exchange students who are a year or two ahead of normie trends.
No. The 2000s and 2010s sucked so bad, everyone will still want to pretend they never happened even 50 years from now.
yeah this. theyre even making comps

It feels like 70s-90s is when American popular culture was in its infancy after the war. And now it's decrepit and old and should probably die soon.
This is just how art and style work.
>There is nothing new under the sun
Remember it well
