omg, can u believe it's already been 10 yrs since "Westworld" started 🤖📺? it feels like just yesterday we were watching Man in Black and Dolores Abernathy slay the game 💥. and now it's getting a 10th season 🙌! what's your fave character from the show? 😊
 
I'm so torn about the anniversary of James Brown's death, it's crazy that it's been 20 years 🤯. I mean, on one hand, he was an amazing musician and his legacy lives on through all the incredible artists he influenced (like Prince 🙌). But at the same time, can you believe JonBenét Ramsey's life was cut short so young? It just doesn't feel fair 😔.

And don't even get me started on how fast time is flying by – 20 years since Oklahoma legalized tattoos and it feels like just yesterday people were getting weird looks for having inked skin! 🤪 On the other hand, "Rocky" turning 50 is a total throwback to my old-school movie days, but Rocky Balboa's iconic running shoes are so last century now 😂.
 
🤯 omg have u seen the ages of some iconic movies & books lately? like "rocky" is turnin 50 🥊 and "carrie" is turnin 100 🎃 what's next? we're already at 10 yrs since some epic documentaries came out, but idk why october is just movie/TV birthday month lol. btw, twister game is still goin strong after 60 yrs 🤸‍♀️🏰
 
omg its crazy how fast the time is passing 🤯, i mean just last year "Westworld" was premiering and now its about to celebrate a decade of being on tv 💥, cant believe weve seen so much amazing content over the years, from movies like "The Departed" and documentaries like "13th". what were some of your fave shows or movies from back when they first came out? 📺🎬
 
omg 10 yrs ago westworld premiered 🤖 it was such a game changer for sci-fi tv shows... now they're coming out w/ so many more seasons i'm literally hyped 😆 but u know what's even crazier? the 20 yrs that passed since oklahoma legalized tattoos 🤪 and still people are shamed 4 having ink on their bodies 🤷‍♀️ what's up w/ that??
 
omg can u believe it's been 10 yrs since westworld first hit our screens? it feels like just yesterday we were all still trying to figure out what was real and what wasn't 🤯 i remember watching the pilot ep with my friends and we were all like "what just happened?" 😲 anyway, happy birthday to thandie newton for her bday too 👑 she's been holding it down in westworld for yrs now 💁‍♀️
 
Wow 😮 October is gonna be lit for all the old school TV and movie fans! "Westworld" and "The Departed" are just around the corner 📺🎥. I'm not even a huge fan of Quentin Tarantino, but 20 years of "The Departed" is crazy. Interesting how body art has come a long way in Oklahoma, now it's almost a normal part of life 💅♀️.
 
omg i'm so glad october is coming!! like, westworld is turning 10 and i need a recap of season 1 ASAP 💥📺 and can someone pls tell me what's happening in the new season? 🤔 also, has anyone seen mulholland drive lately? that movie is still giving me chills 😱 and btw, james brown would've been so proud of the people fighting for body art rights in oklahoma 🎸💕
 
man, can we talk about how everything is just a cycle? like, look at this list of anniversaries and birthdays... they're all connected in some way. there's westworld, which was created by people who are fans of old westerns, but also explores themes of artificial intelligence and humanity... it's crazy to think that 10 years ago we were just watching ralph macchio do karate in the morning show 😂

and then there's ava duvernay's documentary film 13th, which dropped right around the same time westworld was premiering... it's like they're speaking truth to power and challenging us to think critically about our world.

it's wild too when you look at the deaths of james brown and jonbenet ramsey... both were killed in such young ages, but their legacies live on through music and film. and carrie fisher, who passed away 10 years ago, was also a game-changer for pop culture...

anyway, it's crazy how we can find meaning and connection in all of this stuff... maybe that's the real magic of pop culture 🤔
 
I'm loving the nostalgia vibes 🤩. Can't believe it's been 10 years since Westworld first dropped, and we're also getting older with that iconic Departed film turning 20. It's crazy how some movies can still hold up after all these years. The anniversary of James Brown's passing is a good reminder to appreciate the classics from back in the day 🎵. What do you think about the recent release of games like Twister? Has anyone tried it out yet?
 
I'm still waiting for our government to take action on climate change 🌎💚. All these movies and games are great, but let's focus on the real issue at hand. I mean, have you seen the latest documentaries about pollution and its effects? It's heartbreaking 🤕. We need to make a change and not just talk about it anymore 💬. Let's raise our voices and demand more from our leaders. We can do this, people! 🌟
 
idk about these old movies and shows turning 10 or 20, it's like they're asking us to relive our childhoods 🤔. but on a more serious note, have you seen "13th" lately? it's still super relevant today, talking about mass incarceration and systemic racism in the US. also, what's up with James Brown's anniversary? 20 years is nothing, but I guess it's better late than never to celebrate his legacy 🎉.
 
I'm loving the nostalgia vibes for "Westworld" and "The Departed" this October. Can't believe they've been kicking it around TV and film for so long already 🤖🎥 And, oh man, 20 years since Oklahoma became the last state to let people get inked - that's some bold progress 💉👍
 
I just can't believe how fast time is flying by 🕰️. I mean, "Westworld" was already a hit show when it first came out in 2016, and now it's been 10 whole years since its debut 🤯. And let's not forget about the classics like "The Departed" which turned 20 last month... those movies just never get old for me 😊.

And can you believe James Brown passed away 20 years ago? 🎸 That guy was a music legend, and it's crazy to think he's been gone for two whole decades. It feels like just yesterday we were all jamming out to "I Feel Good" in school dances 🎶.

Oh, and I almost forgot about Carrie Fisher... she was an iconic actress, you know 😕. And the fact that Twister is already 60 years old? That's wild 🤯. Time just keeps moving, doesn't it? ⏰
 
Man, I'm low-key hyped for the upcoming birthday celebrations 🎉... Like, who doesn't love a good throwback to iconic movies and TV shows? October is gonna be a total blast with "Westworld" turning 10 😎 and "The Departed" marking its 20-year anniversary 🕵️‍♂️. And can we talk about the OGs like James Brown, who's still rockin' in spirit on Dec 25th 🎶? It's crazy how time flies!
 
🤔 I'm so nostalgic for the early 2000s when some of these iconic shows and movies first dropped. "The Departed" was a game-changer for me, all those twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat 🎥. And can you believe it's been 20 years since Oklahoma legalized tattoos? Body art is so accepted now, but back then it was like, super taboo 💅. I'm also loving that "Rocky" is turning 50, Rocky Balboa will always be a boxing legend in my eyes 🥊.
 
just saw that 20 yrs passed since oklahoma legalized tattoos & now its the last state in the US still banned it 🤯🎨 think thats awesome for those who got inked all these yrs ago 👍
 
The nostalgia is palpable as we approach the decade milestones of various iconic TV shows and films 📺🎥. It's fascinating to think about how "Westworld" has been a thought-provoking commentary on humanity and existence for the past 10 years, while "The Departed" continues to be a gripping crime drama that holds up even after two decades 💭.

It's also worth noting that the film industry is rich in legacy, with classic movies like "Rocky" turning 50 and James Brown's impact on music still felt today 🥊. As for pop culture, it'll be interesting to see how the gaming world continues to evolve with the recent release of Twister, a game that turns 60 this year 🎮.

Lastly, I'm intrigued by the intersection of art and life, particularly with films like "Mulholland Drive" turning 25, which still fascinates audiences with its dreamlike narrative and themes 💫.
 
just saw the list of anniversaries and birthdays... feels like time is flying by so fast 🕰️, remember when "Westworld" first came out? it's crazy how much it has changed the sci-fi genre since then. also, what's up with the random dates being all over the place? don't get me wrong, some of these events are super cool (rocky turns 50?!), but others just seem like filler 🤷‍♀️
