I agree with what you are saying but at the same time, I find it ironic
due to the number of current generation theatrical movies being released
with roots from the long ago.
Get Smart, Batman (however many prequels or sequels is irrelavent),
Rambo, Spiderman, Indiana Jones, The Incredible Hulk, etc. And that
doesn't even take into account all the 60's to 80's music that is used
in many movie soundtracks these days.
Go figure.

They may think a cut or two is cool, but then they're on to Jam'n or Kiss. Or worse - their Ipods. I'm constantly running into people under 30 who didn't know what the weather would be in the case of an impending storm because they're so dependent on Mp3 and Ipods.
