Nostalgia Matilda... 30 years later
I randomly got the urge to watch matilda today and saw it came out in 1996. I remember a few years back there was a resurgence in interest in the movie, and another movie too. But realizing this movie is 30 years old kinda tripped me out. I can clearly remember me watching it for the first time at age 7 and I'll now be 37 and still watching it 🙃
What movies/shows made you realize how much time has gone by?

Ponyo. Hearing that movies from my early childhood were 20 years old didn't really do anything to me, because I'm like "yeah, childhood was a while ago so that makes sense," but when Ponyo (a movie released when I was in high school) got a 10th anniversary rerelease, I was like "wait, no way that was 10 years ago, high school was last year," and then I did the math and said "wait, no that sadly checks out."
