Fair but anyone in the creative field back in those days was off their nut on LSD. The one at the top looks like some kind of magic mushroom land and that tree god thing... oh its just me...

No, parents just took their kids to McDonalds back then. There were probably more birthday parties at McDonalds than anywhere else. They had the playground too. It was a family establishment.

They were thinking modern = iphone. Slim, shiny, minimalist.

Plus the birth rate is much lower (than in the 70s and 80s at least). More old people having coffee so the psychotic trees have to go.
