I Watch Old Cartoons From My Childhood
Some of them are really fantastic. There was this one "Tom & Jerry" cartoon, where Tom had to get Jerry's signature on a document after he died before midnight or he couldn't enter Heaven. Spike (playing the Devil) had a laugh, an evil maniacal laugh that frightens me now when I hear it all these years later.
There are also cultural references I see in older cartoons that go right over the heads of children today. In some of the Looney Tunes, I see characters that clearly Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, and Edward G Robinson. It just reminds me that any pop culture medium will have its reference points that over time will be understood less and less by the following generations.
