Current Events > ITT: examples of dialogue really dating movies

(+) Yeah! (+)

Home Alone (before cell phones were ubiquitous):
"He's gonna call the cops!"
"He's not gonna call the co-- from a treehouse?!"

Jurassic Park
"Hey, look! It's an interactive CD-ROM!"

Adventures in Babysitting

I cant even say it here since its against the ToS.

I guess well just say that casual homophobia was a thing in the 80s.

"What year is it?"

"1955"

Scream

"You can only hear that Richard Gere gerbil story so many times that you have to start believing it."

not a movie, but there was an episode of Babylon 5 with a character that was a "Vicker", or an android that had recording software embedded in it that could record anything, even telepathic communication, and when they were explaining what it is, they had the main character state why it was called a "Vicker", basically stating something to the effect of that it was named after an "old obsolete Earth recording device" called the "VCR".

i guess if Babylon 5 was made when DVDs were a thing they would have called it a Divid?
