castlemaine Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 ang naalala ko nun ay yung mga cartoon shows sa TV: Voltes V, Mazinger Z, Daimos, Balatak(?)... Quote Link to comment
Anaheim Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 ang naalala ko nun ay yung mga cartoon shows sa TV: Voltes V, Mazinger Z, Daimos, Balatak(?)... Ferdinand Marcos put up a banned on these robot cartoons in the 70s and part of 80s..... the reason for this, parents were complaining/worried about their kids' neglect of school work and violent behavior due to the kids constant viewing of these shows. Marcos was applauded by these parents after those shows were banned. Quote Link to comment
Anaheim Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 My first glimpse of a movie called STAR WARS was in 1977 at Harrison Plaza (yes, there were movie theaters in HP back then). I was immediately struck and mesmerized with the story and it became my instant favorite. Bought my first action STAR WARS figure also at HP costing 12 pesos, a whooping amount at the time (the value of that toy has skyrocketed as of today). I also watched SUPERMAN at HP in 1978. That movie made us believed that a man could really fly (there were no computer generated visuals in those days but Christopher Reeves flying sequences really look convincing). Quote Link to comment

Akala mo lumilipad talaga si SUPERMAN. Lumiliko pa. Galing talaga. :cool: Quote Link to comment

Ako rin nun bumili ng mga action figures -- r2d2, c3po, luke, hansolo, pricess leia, darth vader, kaya lang nawala na silang lahat. Tapos nung college na ko, I bought a luke with hood, tsaka si Yoda. Nawala na rin. Sayang. Malaki nang value nila ngayon. Quote Link to comment

I remember a man in that show who ate a whole BICYCLE....incredible talaga. Here's another......an imprisoned man will have a violent behavior if subjected to the color blue and he will be relax if subjected to the color pink......umabot pa hanggang early 1980s yung show na yan. James at 15......si Lance Kerwin, one movie lang na gawa nya as far as I could remember - ENEMY MINES with Dennis Quaid and Lou Gossett, tapos nun never heard of lance kerwin. Soap - nag guest si Billy Crystal dyan and I think that's his vehicle to fame. Chico and the Man - Freddie Prinze (tatay ba ni freddie prince jr ito?) "LOOKIN' GOOOD" Gulong ng Palad - mariane dela riva Annaliza - the late julie vega Flordeluna - with the late dindo fernando Quote Link to comment
Dekampanilla Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 I was a kid in the 70's. Aside from the sitcoms mentioned (which you could read up on in TV Times) I used to watch a lot of cartoons. Some of the more obscure ones would be Funny Company, Gigantor, Funky Phantom, Speed Racer. I also got a kick out of watching sci-fi reruns like Dr. Who, Space 1999 and Thuderbirds are go... Before the advent of computer games, we actually brought comics and boardgames to school especially during exam period when there was some time between exams to just hang. We would play games like Monopoly, The Game of Life etc. and trade DC and Marvel Comics. I was in grade 4 when the first calculators and digital watches first debuted. The numbers where lit up on orange LEDs..... Starwars was such a big hit then that we bought the action figures as well as the bubblegum trading cards. Yes, Collectible cards back then had bubblegum packed with them.. Quote Link to comment
sally bogna mathay Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 great thread! yup, nothing beats the 70s, especially when it comes to music. i remember going to 'gapo to watch concerts featuring aunt irma, pertified anthem, maria cafra. i also remember the blue moon concert where sampaguita made her mark. lots of artists came to pinas (blood, sweat and tears, deep purple, deodato, hubert laws, among others). mura pa ang blue seal noon (4.50 lang sa caltex gas station at the corner of pasay road and makati avenue). went to all the discos (where else, another world, cueva, delirium, queue, 1571, lost horizon, stargazer). radio was great (rj-fm, wwk, xq, rt). crush ng bayan si ms. aruba (maureen ava vieira), finland (johanna raunio) and spain (amparo munoz) during the ms. universe 1974. walang traffic and the love bus was 3.50 lang. speaking of sitcoms, do you remember ang lola kung baduy, starring rosalie sun and jinggay guevarra? nasaan na kaya sila? haaaay, miss the 70s!!!

jt2003 Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 (edited) I was in grade 4 when the first calculators and digital watches first debuted. The numbers where lit up on orange LEDs.....In the mid-1970s, calculators still weren't used that much. I remember that my brother, who was an Engg student at UP during that time, didn't bring a calculator to school. He brought a slide rule. A slide rule! You had a read an entire book just to know how to use a slide rule. Edited June 15, 2004 by jt2003 Quote Link to comment

Don't tell me, nalimutan mo na yung panahon ng kabataan mo? Sign of old age (Well, utak lang naman daw ang tumatanda). Peace bro. Panay bang "sabong" natin ngayon? Bagay sa weather.
