Ha ha, that's funny! I was into Star Trek - Voyager and Deep Space 9 until about 20 years ago, but they look tired and dated now. I still enjoy well-made modern films about space. So rigidity of thinking it certainly isn't!

Cartoons I used to love when I was younger, but again, watching stuff like Tom and Jerry is like going back a very long way - it is such a tired format now.

I still see modern animations such as Coco with my grandsons, and they are very well done and quite entertaining. But I wouldn't watch them on my own. I have, literaaly, 'grown out' of that type of entertainment, which is, after all, aimed at children and young adults.
