Have you watched Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris"? One of the ideas of the movie is that every generation, at some point, is nostalgic for a past era they imagine was better to live in. The mnovie's main character travels through time and find out that people living in an era himself nostalgic for, are in turn nostalgic for another previous era, disliking and being disappointed with the theit contemporary times.

Adapt and survive, or don't and you'll die ... of disappointment.
