32 years old now
The equivalent of watching a 1958 movie in 1990.
The passage of time is brutal.
Your post is also correct. It's surreal when you realize that 2002 is now 20 years ago, yeah that's kinda old but 20 years before that was 1982 which seems so much further away from 2002 than 2002 does to the present.
1958 films were old as shit in 1990. Now-a-days we have youngsters who think The Lord of the Rings trilogy is old school and dated. Brutal.
I remember reading about someone's kid thinking The Ring (2002) was some ancient flick because it has VHS's in it. An completely alien concept to the child who has grew up in the digital era.

So true. And why is it like that? I guess it depends on which generation you belong to.
Alot changed from 1982-2002 in the world of celluloid not much has changed from 2002 to 2022.
People changed alot from 1982-2002 as well where as 1982 you had real men like say Hugo Stiglitz or Tom Atkins in 2002 you had quirky douches like Simon Pegg and 20 years later its still all quirky douche.
Society doesn't change anymore the tech only goes up in slight increments unnoticibale to the untrained where we can watch Seinfeld and swear its modern whereas it would be like watching I Dream of Jeannie in the late 90's.
I just got a PS5 a few months ago and apparently its better graphics but i can't tell the difference at all besides faster load times and worse menus.
