Actual, handmade art and films are why so many of us look back on the 80's nostalgically, whether it's the Muppets, or Freddy's handmade makeup and practical effects, or the Goonies' crew building a whole-ass pirate ship on a soundstage. Practical effects will always be 100% better than CGI or some crap spat out by an LLM.
The reason why so many people look on the 80s nostalgically is because they were children or teens during the 80s.
And had virtually no responsibility, with tons of free time, and friends, and play.
