But back then those kinda video games made beeping and buzzing noises! The only way you get porn back in the days is if you either had friends that gathered around after school and shared stuff they found or if you looked through your dad's collection!

My dad was actually impressed with how accurately it portrayed teenage life in a small Midwestern town in the 70s. He graduated high school in 78

99% of video games in the 70s kinda sucked. Like 2 or 3 decent games came out in the whole decade and it was all near the end of it. Wasn't til the 80s that video games really hit their stride

Yes, because that was the only movie made in the 70s.

Same thing they can do now, minus the smart phones, and pc. It was the 70's tc, not the 1900's. They had comics, toys, cartoons, games(Arcades, home consoles like Atari), tv, movie theaters, etc.

Life before internet and video games must be tough. (Games did exist in the 70s but nowhere on the level that it is now.)

In some ways I'm kinda jealous of the simplicity of those times. It's so hard now to keep up with culture. Like with TV in the 70s I assume if you missed out on it that was that, you didn't have access to a huge backlog of shows and you were okay with that. And certainly didn't have on-demand access to TV, or to movies or music. Basically no video games at all. Plus all the other stuff we get from the internet.

I'm not even like a pop culture vulture or anything but it feels to some extent like we place too much value on pop culture knowledge now. Maybe it was like that back then too, but again, there was just way less of it.
