2009 had Up, Watchmen, Ice Age 3, Rob Zombie’s Halloween II and Avatar. Feels like they only came out 5 years ago.

Sometimes I wish time would slow down.  I see it most in my kids and parents getting older. Frankly, it's depressing to think about especially when nothing can be done about it. To quote Alex DeLarge from Star Trek: Generations - "Time is the fire in which we burn."

20 years since the most over-hyped movie of my lifetime - the now notorious Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Though the Lego Star Wars that was mass-marketed that year in conjunction with the film was pretty fantastic.
As a Trekkie, I was terribly disappointed 10 years ago when I went to see the first J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie. It would be another four years before I ventured back into a cinema after that.
On a plus note, Burton's Batman turns 30 this year. Honestly my favourite movie of the late 80s. It used to be widely adored, but I'm sad to say it seems to face a lot more criticism these days. T'was a huge event in its day though.
Also - Happy 40th to Alien! One of the greatest things to come out of the 70s.

Hell, I just can't believe it's nearly 2020 as that sounds all futuristic as it seems closer to 2000 than 2020, or at the least seems closer to around 2010 than 2020.
p.s. my 30's are almost over as later this year ill be 40 years old. so I might as well enjoy the remainder of it (basically the last days of the more youth side of ones life) while I can as middle-age is pretty much around the corner.

The TV show FRIENDS turns 25 this year. I still remember the early days of the show when it first aired.

The type of future that we've thought of for a year like this (i.e. Back to the Future II type of future) likely won't ever happen in our lifetime.

At least one's 40s are only early middle-age. Will be 35 myself later in the year.

The world of 2019 is still very technologically sophisticated compared to the 1980s though, what with high-speed Internet, smartphones, iPads, 4K TVs, etc. Flying cars may never actually become a thing. A person would need a pilot's licence to operate one and the accident rate would be horrific. Electric and driver-less cars though - I can see them taking off in the coming decades.

“I’ve lived 70 years, and I know that, in spite of the poets, youth is not the happiest season.” – Felix Alymer in “Price Of Foxes” (1949). The movie itself is turning 70 this year.
But then there's this: "The years don't bring wisdom; they just bring old age." - Henry Fonda in "My Name Is Nobody" (1973)
And this: "Its not the years, it's the mileage." - Harrison Ford in "Raiders Of The Lost Ark (1981)
