It actually is thirty years old! At least according to DDG, it came out in 1995.
I missed out on a lot of classic media; my parents were anti TV, so the only shows I was allowed to watch were FRIENDS, Seinfeld and Simpsons, primarily because that’s what my parents watched. Eventually I was allowed to choose two weekly TV shows of my own to watch every week (I went with Power Rangers and Batman: TAS). Even more eventually, my brother and I were allowed to select one movie per week from the local VHS rental store to watch with our dad (and we alternated which of us picked) (potentially interesting given this thread: the original Dune movie was one of those I picked, but it took us two nights to finish because it was so long). The first movie I saw in theater was Lion King for a birthday. (I remember being so fascinated that I watched a good portion of it upside down because I was trying to figure out how the projector worked, so I was craning my head over backwards.)
Anyway, I would have been too young to watch a movie like Se7en in theater at the time of release; I think I saw it in or around 2008 which, IIRC, was also the first time I had a PB&J sandwich.

I’m more curious about what’s in the box.
Pain!
Without love?
It is a quote from Dune
Gaius Helen Mohiam: The test is simple. Remove your hand from the box, and you die. Paul Atreides: What’s in the box? Gaius Helen Mohiam: Pain.
Ah. My original reference was to Se7en:

(Warning, spoilers for a thirty year old movie)
My second reference was to a Three Days Grace song:

(Warning, song from … Maybe fifteen years ago?)
Great song. 3DG was so good back then.
Oh yes Se7en, such a great movie 🍿 It’s really nearly 30 years old, damn… I still vividly remember when the film was in cinema.

Oh I was not questioning it, not at all. I was just shocked that I was again remembered that I am getting old(er).
