Older things were only better for me because of an active imagination.

I refuse to watch the original Star Trek series again for that reason. I tried to watch some of them once but all the magic was gone. The effects are horrible, the scripts are flat and the stories are creative, but still moderate.

However, I can think back and remember most of the episodes I enjoyed as a kid and it’s just as awesome as it once was. It don’t remember the details,obviously, but I remember my emotions and reactions. That is good enough to let the magic live on.
