I would be sad but it's you guys who fucked us over.
Still tho, I give you my feels and I'll listen to this beuaty of a song.
>>76676131
What were the 70s like, grandpa?

Talked to Brooke's mother, Teri Shields, once. She was nice. I don't know why, to this day, everyone rags on her.
I thought Gary Gross was a bit of a dick. Brooke didn't want the pictures publicized anymore, but he still went ahead and did it. Gross did not need the money.
70s music had good vocals but terrible melodies

Disco

Leisure suits.
If it wasn't for the drugs, we prolly would've committed mass suicide

Jobless confirmed
>>76676311
Everyone was outside all the time talking with other. TV was crap. Not a lot of homes had AC (or was too $$$). So outside we went.
A fuck ton of drugs. There were nice people and assholes, just like now. Movies do not depict it realistically. Best would be to view home movies or low-budget documentaries to see what people were like.
Taxi Driver (1976), believe it or not, depicts that time in the City pretty accurately. If you look past all the drama in the script.
Best. Decade. Ever.

I am not a Jew, a banker, or a politician. So no, not me (personally). Though I know what you are getting at and I do not blame you.
>>76676131
Shields was part of a Schneidering or concentrated media effort at normalizing porn. Compare the early career of that chick from Fifth Element.
>>76676777
She was pretty cool. I only met her one night. I think she turned out fairly okay (as an adult) given all the shit she went through. She did not an hero.
I know she has dealt with depression, but 50% of women do too.
>>76676409
Yeah na, I don't rank the song OP posted, but other Bee Gees songs alone prove you wrong
>>76676735
Are you successful in your life or living off the state? Are you white?
>>76676369
Debbie Harry was mind-bogglingly hot in the day.
But she's pretty scary looking now.
>>76677107
I think I have been successful. Still working full time. I do not think I am going to stop working either. Seen too many guys "retire" then quickly go downhill.
Yes, quite white. :-)
>>76676524
without terrible shit like disco, punk would never have existed

Point at this man and Laugh
>>76677242
Yea, I never met her. She has not aged too well. I think she was too much into partying and the drugs.
Brooke has held up pretty well, since then, in comparison. Though Brooke was a lot younger, than Debbie, in 1977.
I fapped to Brooke Shields nude scene in Pretty Baby when I was 13, still fap to it every now and again for old times sake.
>>76677333
Aside from /pol/ and /b/ what other boards do you go on
>>76677606

Another Brooke. She is a little older in this one.
She is actually as nice in person as she is on TV.
>This thread
>>76676605
TV was 1000x better back then.
Barney Miller
All in the Family
Carol Burnett
Bob Newhart
Mary Tyler Moore
Happy Days
etc., etc., etc.
>>76677632
I do not go to /b too much. In fact, I cannot remember the last time I went there.
/pol is pretty fun. I spend a lot of time here. You guys here do not realize how right you are on so many issues. I come here, because it is like a Fort Apache holding out in the Cultural Wasteland. Or maybe Roarke's Drift. ;-)
>>76678068
>because it is like a Fort Apache holding out in the Cultural Wasteland. Or maybe Roarke's Drift. ;-)
I dont know what this means...
By my math you're 70. You a newfag or how long you been on 4chan (/pol/ is pretty new not counting /new/)

Return to the Blue Lagoon
I have no goddamn idea how this movie got green-lit AND got a sequel, but enjoy

Lovely.

That movie came out in '78. I knew when I met her, in 1977, she was filming a movie. I heard it was a turn-of-the-century period piece. I had no idea, when I watched it in the theater, it would be that!
You got to remember, Gross did the nudes of her in '75 (when she was 10). At the time it was considered artsy (did I mention this was New York in 1975 lol), but it got her publicity. Which is what it is all about in the dog-eat-dog NYC talent scene. Her mother, Teri (who was pretty nice the one time I talked to her), took a risk. It paid off (big time) for her daughter. She got multiple film roles and her career took off.

Punk was created in 1967 with the Velvet Underground and the Monks.

Sleaze-ball producers have been around since the first camera was invented. Since, painting was invented probably.

I was born in 1970.
HUGE crush on Brooke Shields as a kid.
Only recently watched Pretty Baby, felt REALLY WEIRD about the whole thing. Like my penis was looking at me, and I was looking at it, and neither of us wanted to go first.
>>76678281
the 70s were a WAY different time than now, there were actually books in the neighborhood malls, like Show Me and Will I Like It, that had tasteful images of nude 8, 10, 14 year olds, looking at each other genitals and lying in "coitus" poses.
They were supposed to be the new generation of "birds and bees" sex education with no squeamishness or shock.
>>76678220
Sorry, cultural reference. I mean these films:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Apache,_The_Bronx
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zulu_%281964_film%29
> Zulu is a 1964 epic war film depicting the Battle of Rorke's Drift between the British Army and the Zulus in January 1879, during the Anglo-Zulu War. It depicts 150 British soldiers, many of whom were sick and wounded patients in a field hospital, who successfully held off a force of 4,000 Zulu warriors.
[actually sprung for a Blu-Ray copy of this one -- it is so good!]
I have been coming to 4chan for about 4 years or so. I do not know the exact date I stumbled on /pol. But, let me tell you, this place is fucking awesome. We used to talk about this stuff, in the OPEN, all the time. Jews (Nixon talked about them incessantly), Faggots/Queers, Wetbacks, Niggers. Watch "All In The Family" reruns, sometime. Carroll O'Conner constantly talks about niggers, for example. These topics were openly (and honestly) talked about back then everywhere. TV, newspaper, books, etc... None of this SJW censorship bullshit going on now.

The 70s sounds like an amazing place
You know why Brooke shields is so hot?
She looks like a man. Men are naturally hotter than women. It's a subconscious thing.
>>76679352
Archie bunker was meant to make conservatives such stupid though. They did the same thing with the Alf garett character here in the uk.
Ovbiously a far sight better than anything you will see on telly these days though.
>>76678331
Yep. Expand that picture (of her dancing with that guy) and play this Bee Gees music video, and that was it was like. She did not look too different, when I was with her, than she does in that picture. I do not remember exactly what she was wearing, but compared to now (what young girls wear) she was quite wholesome/modest. Most girls were back then.
>tldr: I got to dance with 12 year old Brooke Shields nah nah nah nah boo boo lol ;-)
>>76678496
Everyone (at least A-list) did. I only went there once. I was 22. My aunt had connections in the modeling industry and took me there, one night, to meet some clients.
>>76678890
Ha ha, no. That is not me. I do not know who that is. I am white, had (back then) brown hair. So, it looked something similar to that. That was the closest photo I could find of what it was like.
>>76680020
Sounds like a groovy time. Makes me bummed I couldn't witness it...I would've preferred ten years earlier, in '66 / '67.
>>76678979
Yea, she was pretty hot back then. And she was really cool in person. I mean she was someone you could actually enjoy spending time with. Friendly.
>>76678705
Psychedelic protopunk.
If we are counting that as punk then the Stooges have them beat, and the MC5 have the Stoogies.
I'd point to this as one of the first proper punk:

>>76679568
If you were not in a bad family (e.g., alcoholic parent) or a some other type of shitty situation, yes, there was a lot of freedom.
I think part of this was post-Vietnam, people were so fucking done with the police state, militaristic bullshit. Everyone just wanted to mellow out. Music, drugs, sex, whatever.
Looking back now, yes I it was nice. What I especially miss is everyone was outside. All the fucking time. Now neighborhoods are like ghost towns year round. Everyone is inside. Back then kids played outside all the time (because there was nothing to do inside).
In the City, we could hop on the subway or bus and travel around all day. No one bothered us. Nothing bad ever happened to me or anyone I knew (from being on their own all day).
Though, the 1970s was the first latch key generation. That, I think, sucked big time for kids back then. No one home when they got home from school.
>>76679613
lol no :-)
>>76679653
True. Norman Lear made Archie Bunker n buffoon. But, people did talk honestly like that back then. Someone above mentioned the Dick Cavett show. That was another show where people would talk quite candidly.
They tried to do, sort of, the same thing with "Forrest Gump". Make conservatives a retard. But, it backfired, because the "retard" was the only honest, decent, and noble person in the film. People wanted to see those values in a movie, whoever was depicting them.
>>76680391
Yes, 60's and 70's were awesome. 80s were pretty cool too, but in a different way. There was a lot of cultural freedom say from 1965 - 1979.
Yes, I know there was a lot of drugs and degenerate crazy shit during that period. But, there is bad and good in every period. Not excusing the stupid stuff (back then), but there was some nice memories too (like in my OP post).
>>76682037
but you didn't havge the itnernet in your 20's...im sure being in your 70's you can kinda see how it's kinda better to be 20 now then it was back then.
If I make it to 70 I may see some wild fucking shit by then and the Internet won't even fucking compare to that.
>>76682474
It is just that people are using technology these days is a way to talk to people. Back then we just talked to people (without the technology).
It would have been fucking awesome (back then) to have this technology, but all the freedom we had too.
I think young people, today, are on track to at least live to 100 years old. Maybe beyond that.
>>76683015
This is a bretty gud thread.
Who have you voted for over the years?
>>76683729
I did not vote in the 70s. I voted once for Reagan, but then I saw how he was turning America into a Police State (especially with the asshole Ed Meese). So, I regretted it. Mondale or Dukakis would not have made a difference. They are pushing the Agenda (i.e., fuck over the middle class) from the other direction. So, I have become pretty disillusioned with the system. It is corrupt from top to bottom.
>>76676524
have you noticed the Dubstep of today is like the DIsco of back then?
