Fricking Soul what happened?
Millennial sensibilities defined by apples minimalist appearance
i hate apple so much
i keep getting videos of millenial women who paint over old furniture to be white and beige recommended to me
Everything is going to be white, grey, and black and you're going to like it.
That makes me feel like I'm living in an office waiting room. I hate it.
makes me feel like I'm in a horror movie and I'm gonna die tonight
why do they love this shit so much and why do they love those cold cold lights
>mcdonald's has fallen!
mc over
>why do they love this shit so much and why do they love those cold cold lights
It's cheap and easy to mass produce. That's it.
My sister sends me videos all the time of millenial chicks painting over antique furniture to be beige
Who wants icky brown wood
No one
I hate this too, but the explanation for it makes sense: People selling the house make it sterile so prospect customers can customize it how they want after the purchase. If they painted it blue, someone may immediately scroll past who doesn't like the color. It is also why you see barely any plants in front of new houses, because it is expensive to maintain and plant. Might as well let the buyer do it themselves how they want.
partially true, lots of people go out of their way to paint it this way for their own use.
Oh yeah that is true. I've been house hunting and man some of the interior decorating is so bad it should be categorized as a misdemeanor. That isn't even counting the hazards, like putting a couch up against an island with a stovetop.
this pic made me want a pretzel and to go to the book store so bad
Malls are so comfy for that. I love soulful and nostalgic images.
I went to West Farms Mall in Connecticut recently. It's an up-scale mall that focuses on expensive brand names like Gucci and Abercrombie in a predominately white area.
It was...bustling. No closed stores. Mostly white people everywhere. Orderly and clean. Security guards that looked confident and not demoralized. Kids laughing, parents smiling. The restaurants it had were all packed. It allowed me to return to some level of soul that I felt did not exist.
Yet at the same time it lacked anything that I would have liked as a kid. No toy store, no book store, no video game store, no arcade, no carousel or fun activities. The mall was all muted colors and looked like the halls of the Death Star. The more I thought about it, the more I felt bad for zoomies as THIS is the best they can get.
Western malls look so depressing, why do they always look several decades outdated with almost no variety?
the ones in the west were always built first moron. other countries are just now catching up with USA
>catching up
You mean surpassing. Most American malls are dying for a reason.
>Most American malls are dying for a reason
It's all those future doctors and lawyers.
This is like saying cars in the West were built first. Doesn't make them good anymore.
Japanese cars have been best since the 80s, you zoomie
Doesn't change that America was making cars first, alphatroony.
might want to brush up on your history moron
https://group.mercedes-benz.com/company/tradition/company-history/1885-1886.html
Mercedes cars are trash, what were you trying to prove?
That you're a dumb mutt.
Tesla and high end European brands are still great.
I've been to multiple malls in Hong Kong, which are supposed to be the best in the world. They generally aren't much better than that one the other anon posted outside of a few select exceptions. And the ones that DON'T look like generic grey hallways are so packed 24/7 you can't enjoy anything
Hong Kong malls are old and they have no space. The best malls are unironically in SEA now.
Looks like your standard mall, but open to the sky.
Boring.
Here's what a real mall should look like
Yes, the left side of the mall is about half a level below the side on the right, because fricking STYLE.
The mall was designed to frick with your sense of direction.
Sadly, the mall is probably demolished now. Last time i went there for SDCC, the place was behind construction walls.
It's right in the middle of downtown San Diego and was one of the best places just to walk around.
From the outside, it looked like any San Diego block. You wouldn't know there was a mall behind the theater, hotels, and parking garage. Only Nordstrom was visible from "outside", which had a elevator entrance at the street level. Nordstrom itself began at the 3rd floor.
I was there before COVID, and i can understand why the mall was shut down, because it was nothing but eastern europeans selling bootleg shit and yelling at people walking around to buy their wares. Sketchy as frick.
Like most malls, its golden age was in the 80s and 90s. It was the upscale mall for San Diego, so during Christmas they had choirs walking from spot to spot in the mall to sing. They also used to have an FAO Schwarz. So there was no ghetto people would even come to visit there, because everything was too expensive.
The golden age of malls was in the 70’s and 80’s by the 90’s they were declining as hulking white elephants of capitalism
>hulking white elephants of capitalism
sure, in terms of profit, but almost all the malls were being revamped in the 90s and you could tell they were were putting money to bring in more people.
A fricking joy just to walk through them, without fear of robbed or getting into fights, despite the huge crowds of teens in them.
Last time i went into this mall, the lights were out in a lot of places and all the eastern europeans actually made me scared shit was mobster related.
Malls didn't start dying out until the second half of the '00s.
not true. There were malls that were "ghost malls" with only 1 or 2 active stores even in the late 90s. Usualy malls that were in formerly nice areas that lost all their business to newer malls built out in the newer suburbs.
Also, even the ghetto malls were safe, despite being at the height of crime and violence in the 80s and 90s. Today, malls like this have cops with lights on almost every single day.
The real decline of malls didn't show until the 00s, at least on the western part of the united states. I've been all up and down the west coast and lived as far inland as texas. I've only visited the east coast, so i wouldn't be able to say what the norm and decline was there.
East coast here. The big decline didn't start until 2006ish.
cause no western country is still building malls
Asia has more of a mall culture than the west, that's why the ones in their major cities are always top tier. Lots of people live in shitty housing that can't afford to move/renovate and their malls make sure they hang out there all fricking day
This is cope. The real reason is because Asian and European cities are more organic and interconnected. Americans stratified into suburbs, forcing people to go out of their way to get to malls instead of being able to just stop at one on the way to wherever they're going.
that sounds like a great movie, Jackie Brown with an all-Chinese cast.
the west stopped building indoor malls in 2002. now it's outdoor "malls", don't have to pay to air condition/heat them, can fit more parking
I'm thinking SEA now has more disposable income than amerisharts et al.
I grew up near one of the most soulful malls in leafland. Still great even today.
EVERYTHING in the western sphere can be summed up in 3 words;
Minimum
Viable
Product
Only true for American zoomers, Asian malls look incredible.
I just hate how bright they are now. Everything is white, the lights are as bright as possible. I don't remember everything being so bright when I was a kid. It was warm, comfy. The lighting didn't feel invasive. You didn't feel like a spotlight was on you. Ah...
That's mainly due to the switch to LED lighting. It's generally more harsh
I have seen some places switch to LED brught white lights for the street lights at night. It is sick, like just keep it dark at that point. Fortunately that hasnt happened near me but man I am going to complain if they ever try that crap.
It's cold and satanic, these sterile environments fill me with unease like human spark has been extinguished
LED cancer. I get blinded on the road every single day by LED headlights. Even from multiple blocks away, it's insane.
>I get blinded on the road every single day by LED headlights
Same. That shit is fricking dangerous, I literally cannot see when they're behind me blinding me through my mirrors
Spot on
meanwhile around me there are so many blacks minors are banned from malls
i wondered if Abercrombie was still a thing
can't say I see anyone wearing it anymore
>expensive brand names like Abercrombie
What? That was just a typical mall brand. It wasn't anything like the French or Italian designers.
There isn't a fountain in this photo but I can smell it.
that's bullshit, they could have just left the house as is and the house would be cheaper, now prospective buyers have to invest even more money into the purchase price and to change all this home depot clearance section garbage flooring and fixtures.
You don't get it, flippers do this with the intention of profiting from their "work"
>paint over existing cabinets with matte grey latex paint
>epoxy over existing counters for youtube tutorial faux marble look
>slap a coat of matte grey latex paint on all the walls
>replace carpet with the cheapest big box store rock-n-lock composite foux wood flooring
>put 8000k led lighting in every fixture
>replace all hardware with the cheapest stainless rental grade shit you can find
>spend 10k in rehab (80% of budget goes to floors)
>list house for 60k over
>it's clean and modern and move in ready!
um bro rock-n-lock is a roofing product
lol you're right but for some reason it's common for people around here to colloquially refer to the click-lock type flooring installs as rock-n-lock. I think there's a brand called "rocklock" that might be the source of it.
The point of the design is to add items of color and have a diverse representation of the color spectrum amongst an all white environment
NO NO NO NO NO
Modern minimalist design is horrid but the quirky 2000's bright colored wavy plastic shit was abhorrently tasteless and fake looking. Neither is good but I honestly think I prefer the soulless comblock looking shit to the "carnival cruise line" aesthetic that so many stores and restaurants had 20 years ago.
look at this b***h ass homie
homie are u a baby? You suck on a pacifier? You really telling me mcdonalds playplace is good vibes?
what do you think when you go to the store?
>oh god it's so ugly where is the bright red tubes?
>this place needs more plastic
>tile? where's the multicolored triangle pattern carpet?
>WHY DOESN'T EVERYTHING SMELL LIKE RUBBER AND PISS?
holy zoomer. the mcdonalds designs in that ic goes back to the 80s, maybe later
>advertising slop to children good!
the death star looked way cooler
they are deliberately making things look ugly, they aren't really going for any particular style, they just want it to look ugly
People will joke about fast food places being used as examples, but it really is a perfect representation of every facet of life. Everything's so fricking dull now. No, it's not that I got older. You can literally look at movies, video games, tv, fashion, the internet, the way people decorate their homes. Look at literally fricking anything and see how every ounce of personality has been sucked out. Bring the colors back. Bring the optimism back. Bring back the personality and expression.
Basically got turned into bunkers because of low trust society
That feels like something you might see in northern Europe 20 years ago and be impressed by it. Now it's just absolutely soulless and generic.
shit, that pic is like mainlining nostalgia
It may be soulless compared to the old Subways (never liked them, so i only have a negative opinion to their designs before), but those colors are straight out of the 80s.
Very bright and cheerful. Maybe a little too stark, with the shape of the tables, counters, and frames, but it would fit right in at any strip mall or mall in the 80s.
Pic has 90s colors as frick. Warmer than what you saw in the 80s.
>americans actually unironically and literally have nostalgia for goyslop dispensers from not even 2 decades ago
At least have color with the furniture and curtains. Also house plants and artwork
So many fake materials with that "easy to clean" sheen. I hate it so much.
I went to Chuck E Cheese last night and it looks exactly like this.
Literally what my wife did to our apartment.
looks like a marriot townplace
I don't know what that means.
are you pretending to be stupid?
Are you?
for the love of god put an area rug down
To what end?
stop posting your gay little apartment gayboy
we get it you wife runs your life
this looks like someone with no taste is trying to emulate someone that has taste, although the aesthetic she's going for is shit anyway.
Show your apartment.
I live in a house. I'm not enough of a tosser or an idiot to post a collage of pictures where I live on Cinemaphile like it's a blog. people here are not your friends.
>lives in an already cramped little apartment
>further emphasizes the claustrophobic nature of the space by painting the walls MATTE BLACK

>League of Legends book in your bathroom
aren't you a chinese guy?
Women don't have a soul. They never developed a sense for aesthetics because thru history they were kept in doors and caves staring at simple shapes and plain walls. Anything with more detail to it hurts their brain and they immedietly dislike it, they have to simplify it in order to like it because they are simple. israelites, who are the cave people that spent life hiding are the same which is why they love modern design so much who is devoid of all soul
Me too Microsoft as well
more soul pics please. these two made my heart drop a little bit 🙁
why are they always square? not even a good design, it makes leaks more likely
It's a specific building concept. Prefabricated structures made of cheap chinese materials imported in and quickly constructed. It can be quickly rearranged (even internally) within only a few days if you want to rapidly change what the store is. It's for resale value, as the current business model for fast food is that they will quickly resell when the franchise inevitably dies.

The KFC, Dairy Queen and Wendy's I drive past on the way to work all still look like the old ones.
You guys b***h but if I see one of the old buildings I won’t eat there because all the old ones are staffed by Blacks.
Neo-Brutalism
NOOO THINK OF THE BORGERS 🙁
Yeah they all do this to resell shit now. Can't have buildings anymore where you could tell it used to be a pizza hut or something. https://usedtobeapizzahut.blogspot.com/
But everyone loves when Gordon does this to comfy family owned restaurants.
>goyslop nostalgia
are goys really mindless gibbering barnyard animals?
talmud says so
? I dunno what that means. You're the ones saying goys get "slop" like barnyard animals.
I am not
Probably others are
Yes
You're half-right. But Americans aren't just nostalgic for their burgers but for the time they represent. A time of optimism, opportunity and waaaay more white people.
americans always were and always will be moronic goyim slaves. They are quite literally like cattle
you need to chill out dude, not everything has to be an angry political melty
Unlike whatever "enlightened" arm-pit of the forgotten portions of Europe YOU come from, of course.
>europe
That's a generous assumption
I want to personally thank whoever made this with $100,000 USD
I miss the old movie theater aesthetic.
Why is modern culture so opposed to beauty? Why does everything have to be soulless and bland looking?
because beauty is patriarchy and white supremacy and transphobia
Back then people b***hed about how those McDonald's buildings and places like them were gaudy and tasteless.
Why are they pushing this grey, black white aesthetic that I see every restaurant chain adopting?!?FACT!!!
The real reason this happened is because McDonald's was once a place for kids. Then this phenomenon called "manchildren' happened, and the kids who ate McDonald's grew up and decided they wanted this kids restaurant to look more "adult", so they don't feel like morons for eating kid's food.
It's the same reason the new Star Wars trilogy was soulless compared to the prequels. The prequels were made for kids and then manchildren raged for 10 years until they gave you an adult version. And of course, the manchildren hated that too.
You're right about star wars, but missing an aspect with McDonald's.
McDonald's started to get a lot of bad PR for marketing unhealthy food to children. So they shifted their marketing. The shift happened when they debuted the "I'm Lovin' It" slogan and jingle.
It was actually pretty genius of them. They targeted a demographic that has the same impulse control and high time preference of children.
Blacks. Some point in the 00s, you started seing a lot of "urban youth" in McDonald's commercials, and the music they used in their commercials was far more "hip hoppish".
>Trad-Corporatism
We're reaching levels of moronic meme political views never before thought possible
>Millennial
Nah. Zoomers. Millennials actually existed pre-Apple minimalism and remember the old world.
zoomers arent the ones making calls and designing stuff now
Neither are millennials. It's gen x, morono.
gen x arent the one painting everything in their home grey
yeah spare me your moron zoomer perceptions fr fr no cap deadass ong
No they are just considering which shade of noose they want to choose when their nihilism hits its peak
Millennials can't afford homes
The old world ended in 2010 so zoomers remember it too.
>The old world ended in 2010
lel fricking zoomers when will they learn
>gramps seething about the 2000s (aka the last good decade) again
Millennial cope. This fetishization of minimalism started when zoomers were still children.
The original iphone "only having 1 button" is when I noticed minimalism really started to take hold.
So you agree that zoomers grew up with apple aesthetics.
No. Gen Z is in their 20s now. We grew up in the transitional era between soulful aesthetics and soulless minimalism. It's Gen Alpha that has grown up with Apple aesthetics.
If you think mass produced bauhaus slop is "soulful aesthetics" you are legitimately moronic.
>If you think mass produced bauhaus slop is "soulful aesthetics" you are legitimately moronic.
That isn't what I said though. "Bauhaus Slop" is much closer to soulless minimalism, judging by what I get when I look up "Bauhaus architecture."
Seethe and cope. Your generation is the reason for the modern world's problems. Mine never had a say until it was far too late.
Bauhaus is the geometric design style that dominated the early 2000's. The primary colors, big curves intersecting straight lines, lack of symmetry etc.
Architecture/interior design: Think commercial daycare, pre-school, cheap family cruise lines, fast food restaurants etc.
Combine that with a mixture of older furniture and lots of clutter and curved metallic painted plastic electronics and that's the trendy 2000's aesthetic.
>We grew up in the transitional era between soulful aesthetics and soulless minimalism.
lol fricking zoomers when will they learn
Take responsibility for once. The oldest zoomer was 13 years old in 2010 when this shift began
>2010
>when this shift began
kek zoomers wwtl
further proof that zoomers had nothing to do with it
Are you completely illiterate? The comment was that zoomers didn't experience the world before the apple aesthetic hit. You fricking moron stop wasting the time of non-moronic people.
You’re a moron. This boring lifeless shit has been happening for a decade. Zoomers arent old enough to be in positions to be making these decisions. Zoomers hate minimalism and love shit like fruiteger aero and are big proponents of soul
>millennial
It was literally Gen X. The oldest millennials in the late 00s were in their early 20s and had zero say on how major brands were marketed. Stop blaming us for your shit old fricking loser
>Stop blaming us for your shit old fricking loser
millenials are the israelites of the generations. simultaneously responsible for everything in the world but also are useless losers.
>zoomers afraid of liminal spaces
>Millennials fault
Terrazzo floors are fricking kino, and should NEVER have gone out of style. I feel bad for all the interior designers from this period that had to adapt to the soullessness that came next.
The mid 90s happened. Lifeless, soulless, corporate chic took over, and it's poisoned everything from offices, to restaurants, to living spaces. "Cheap, simple, 'effective'" and perfectly lifeless for fricked-in-the-head corporate drone simps.
Tacky felt went out of style.
le tacky

Simple. "Soul" is just male creativity, "Soulless" is female attempt at creativity. It's that simple. The more feminine society becomes the more soulless it becomes because women ultimately choose function over form.
That is fricking moronic and completely ass-backwards. Women are the more aesthetic-form-focused gender quite obviously
>ass-backwards
*bass-ackwards
FTFY
I agree with the first part but
>because women ultimately choose function over form.
is literally the opposite of the truth
Wrong, anon. Women appreciate beauty. The problem is the infiltration of non-whites, specifically israelites.
this looks like shit and you guys are dated dinosaurs with no taste or knowledge about design
It looks great and you’re a fat troony homosexual.
I literally am an Interior Designer at one of the biggest firms in Atlanta. I know more about this kind of stuff than any of you fricktards could possibly fathom…OP pic looks like fricking DOGSHIT
So you go around ruining older designs because your israelite boss thinks “contemporary” styles will sell better. And somehow you think this means you have any artistic merit? Fascinating. I’m sure that gash between your legs is quite the aesthetic as well.
We transform dull flyover hole in the walls into having a more inviting and global post modern look to attract more business. Your stupid tinfoil conspiracy is wrong and its proven with statistical data that post modern designs increase customer turnover
you say that like it refutes anons posts in some way
unironically, it became unfashionable to snort cocaine and drink at your day job
land speculators became the primary market for real estate. as a result corporations tried to make every building easily rebrandable for when it inevitably got sold, reduces costs of changing over the building to a new business.
so, in other words, israelites.
get a job welfare queen
>what happened?
YABBA DABBA DOOOOOOOOO
underrated
I had a dream a week ago about going to the theaters. I thought my dream just made something up, I had no idea they looked like that at one point.
the one I used to go to looked kinda like this but the hallways were always dark as frick not lit like this
this is how they looked after hours when the cleaning lights were on.
Yeah, those were cool as ice.
I don't
Last time I went to an AMC theater the halls and doors looked normal. This must be a mid western thing
this was how they looked in the 90s and early 2000s
Makes me feel RADICAL
I'm GONNA say it.
Movie theaters haven't gotten that much worse. Only the prices. The new reclining seats are way better, and the aesthetic hasn't really changed much inside the building, it's close enough to how it used to be that it almost makes me forget the outside world is so much shittier than it was 20 years ago. What you anons are doing is letting the shittiness of the new movies impact your sentiments toward theaters themselves.
black people are the missing link
Absolutely satanic.
I looked into this pic once and found that it's misleading. The stag statue was temporarily removed so it could be repaired and restored, and a local artist made the "nightmare stag" of his own volition as an expression of his personal struggle with schizophrenia. It was taken down by the city and he made a second one which was also taken down. Then the stag was put back in place.
That's not true. The stag and the fountain were both tagged and torches by protestors. The city took it down, but it's still not back up. The replacement stag was taken by Trumpgays.
the real elk still isn't up. the nightmare elk was taken down by pro trump supporters, not the city and the dems say the statue was supposed to be for the mythical and nonexistent idea of police violence against blacks
deer are rayciss
This makes me sad, the beautiful world I was growing up in is being destroyed by schizos who have seduced the world leadership
you didnt grow up in a beautiful world
Here's the full context
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightmare_Elk
Tl;dr this post
is right
This is like BTTF2 when society has devolved into a grim viceland
That elk said the N-word.
Fellow Black folk, what's our response?
I stopped going years ago because of a certain demographic that likes to sit in the back and hoot and holler the entire time. It's only gotten worse because they're more embolden since they know they won't get kicked out.
where do you live and what kind of movies are you watching? i legit haven't seen Black folk in theatres in years maybe decades. i don't think they even like going to the theatres. are you watching fast and furious movies in atlanta or what?
What do you have agaisn't israelites?
Too purple.
That late 90s optimism.
The Apple aesthetic has been a bigger disaster for humanity since Brutalism
If the movie doesn't start with a roller coaster animation while passing by giant boxes of candy, I don't go. Simple as.
Holy frick core memory unlocked. Think the one I saw as a kid was after this one but the music was the same.
i preferred my candy and popcorn playing music for me
COLOR!? PATTERNS!? DEPTH!? LIFE!? WTF is this commie bullshit!? Imagine paying some hippie queer interior decorator bookoo bucks when instead you could have a PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS come in and make everything look clean, sleek, and 'futuristic'! AND FOR CHEAP!
None of that "soul" crap for me, thanks!
They even desaturate movies these days. Or throw a blue filter on it.
they still are, right?
I do, and they were awesome
The theater we used to go to looked like this in the halls. That part was clean. The bathroom on the other other hand was like so many bad movie theater bathrooms. Garbage everywhere The out of order urinal had pee in it and duct tape sloppily wrapped around it.
Does anyone else remember you could run fast as hell on these type of spaces? I just remember gaining like a +10 in speed when I went here
the traction was incredible
Trump lost, incel.
stolen election
>Trump lost, incel.
He was still President for 4 years, 4 more than Hillary, and no amount of your autistic screeching will ever change that!!!FACT!!!
Hillary lost, incel.
When I was a kid the local mall had an area where there was a big fantasy-forest themed play area, which was just an area with big trees, giant mushrooms, caves, thematic lighting and sound effects etc. which was just for kids to hang out in and right next to it was a mini-golf course, an arcade and a toy store. And the walls had stuff like mannequins climbing along the walls 3 storeys up and stuff like that. It's sad kids today won't get that kind of experience,
they had spider man up in the corner of the video shop or arcade or something like that. It was long ago that I don't remember the specifics but I do remember him being up there. so cool
none of you hate the Bauhaus as much as you should.
SOVL
That's not even that old. I remember when theaters would put up a little display with the movie poster and showtimes over the door of the assigned screen. They didn't even bother putting up the number.
They stopped doing that to prevent theater hopping. People would go to a matinee show and then just sneak in to another movie after they left the first one. Just by walking down the hall you could see which movie was going to start soon right on the door. I once saw four movies in one day when I was a teen and only paid for the first one.
>Get in the theater shinji
This has always been my personal favorite. Huge open space and a basement level with an old part of the city wall with spears sticking out of, postitioned exactly so that if you were to jump over the rails you'd land on them.
You'll notice that in this kitchen there are no cups
They're probably in the pantry. Seems like you're suffering from a bit of the tism.
>cups and glasses kept in a cabinet?! I'M GOING INSAAANE
this looks like somewhere a woman would be murdered artistically
The the marble island the perfect for presenting the body of the victim is a decorative manner. Would've been a good episode of Hannibal.

maybe because it's a staged photo?????
A friend of mine has a similar kitchen to this. It unironically is soulless, feels like a hotel lobby/buffet room
There's a hilarious vid recently where Tucker Carlson goes to a Russian Costco and tries to do a "Yeltsin in a American Supermarket" moment by shilling it.
He mainly ends up hailing the concept of a locked cart corral where you have to put money in to get a cart, claiming it's an amazing technological system and indication of a high-trust society.
Is working at a theater fun? It seems so comfy of a job when I go to visit (outside of bathroom janitor shit)
In Bongland we still have some of these

Okay then, goys are barnyard animals. I'm asian, do I count as one?
Yes
non hebrew = goyim.
sad, I wish I could be a israelite apex predator
I can count the amount of times I actually saw something in a theater on three hands. I can count the amount of times I was disappointed in my decision on two.
Got burnt too many times, I just waited until it came out on VHS then DVD.
Looks like Princes bathroom
Those are collage kids that probably half of them are getting paid
malls were always shit
and yet the third world countries those migrants come from have better malls then the US. But yeah israelites magically forced all dumb goys to destroy their slop malls.
The US like most things invented the mall in the 60’s you big lipped eurotard
by the 90’s the practice was declining primarily do to competition from online sales and demographic changes
yeah and israelites were the ones who invented the shopping malls (Viktor Grunbaum) in the 50s so blaming them for ruining them seems moronic.
Here's the "front entrance", which you had to walk past a grocery store and cafe to get to.
Notice how many flights of stairs there are to get to first level of the mall.
I remember these were fun to look around in but never end up buying anything
I got all the seasons of Upright Citizens Brigade and Assssssscat at one of these on dvd years ago out of a bargain bin for like $5 each and $2 for the movie years ago. Also bought some of the volumes of SCTV here back in the day because it was one of the only places I could find them that wasn’t Borders. Frick Borders I’m glad they’re gone, everything that didn’t have a price physically printed on it (so pretty much everything other than the books) was like 25-50% more expensive there
Those were so fun. The movies were all overpriced though sadly. It was neat to see the anime stuff there.

Architects don't fund buildings, they're just picked to make them. Banks and corporations make the decisions on what gets built.
Architects have little say on how buildings look. That's determined by budget and modern materials, code, and construction.

oh my fauci the absolutely spine tingling liminal space nostalgia!!!!!!!!!!
pretty sure this is the inside of the AMC 30 in Schaumberg, IL.
>Can clearly see the numbers for each screen
Why the frick do they try so hard to hide the numbers now?
a California mall, 1985
God this place sucked so much ass. I'm not even autistic but eating in there was like some kind of sensory overload and it made me want to start rocking back and forth like tard.
>random animal noises of monkeys screaming and lions roaring piped thru shitty speakers behind giant piles of plastic plants hanging directly over your table the entire meal
>I just want to eat my fricking steak and go outside
>sister keeps trying to touch the fake snake next to the booth while my dad tells her not to
>"where you going son? it's still early! how about some dessert?"
>ear shattering monkey noises *OOOOH OOOOH AHHH AHHH!*

Sounds kino as frick. Perfect place to pop lsd.
I remember reading about this place in Animorphs and really wanted to go to one.
i was born too late for rainforest cafe.
Paul Blart Mall Cop was filmed at a local one. It closed years aho and is now an upscale Brazilian steakhouse.
imagine playing video games at an arcade and eating at rain forest cafe
>I'm da jokah baby
I'll post some pics of an old mall I have
That reminds me of how, in a thread like this, I discovered a local photographer had a series of photos from the 80s.
I can remember my mom smoking in restaurants in the mid 90s, it was crazy.
too much liminal space for nu-bois
Felt like I could run as fast as Carl Lewis down those long carpeted hallways
Anyone have good retro YouTube videos? Found this one of parents buying Power Rangers in Toys r' Us that's kino:
WTF, americans used to be white!?
When did this happen
We were always white.
You gonna get styled on, white boy.
Breakdance off!
Movie theaters should be designed in a way that disconnects you from the real world. The movie theater hallway SHOULD feel like some sort of fantastical hallway to another world.
I remember recently taking my mom to the local mall and ahe was talking to someone at the Macy's perfume counter. The clerk said they had to take all the sample bottles behind the counter because so many kids were stealing them.
Pics from a nearby large movie theatre. It's still managed reasonably well and has the usual older style.
From when I went to see The Boy and the Heron.

Huh. Couldn't find any old family pics of public areas and living rooms without family in them. I should go through some of the boxes of prints and find some. Went through a bunch when my dad passed.
reminds me of the old one I went to visiting cousins in NH
I drive.
Dat wacko jacko influence, these boyz lookin fresh, ready to pound the streets (and a few bussys)
As much ad I love these, I should fibd some old family pics and slides I scanned. I think I have some here on my phone.
Here. In the meantime... Have a pic from my retro game room that I am still trying to organize. Hopefully I can organize iy so my cousin's kids can come over andnplay some old games and watch vhs tapes.
Ooo... I found a pic of a local theater / concert hall. I think I saw that 1917 film there before the pandemic with my dad who passed away since.
so, blacks?
I think you guys are being way too dramatic about architecture and decor, and I think modern aesthetics still look pretty nice. But what they did to Mall of America's Legoland is unforgivable.
Oh my god, that underwater sub on the right, I still have that set laying around somewhere. I remember it also came with a few skeleton pirates and a bunch of the golden studs and gems, it was based.
I had the one on the left
I do
Arcades and some roller rinks too.
