When is this 80's Retro thing going to happen?

I think the generation that is suppose to be into/support this 80's retro movement has been hit the hardest by the great recession, a lot of us have lost our jobs and forced to move back home and struggling.

the thing people have to understand any retro movement, IE the 60's retro move in the 80s, with the Wonder years, the resurgence of hippie culture, the 70's Retro move in the late 1990's with That 70s show. It is all based on Capitalism and fashion companies, and film companies trying to cash in and make a buck. So to simplify there has to be a DEMAND and a SUPPLY for this.

Right now with the economy so bad, gas prices skyrocketing, no jobs to be found. Housing still in the gutter. The generation that should be demanding an 80's retro movement are all broke.

I think the movement will happen and is still happening, but will get stronger as the Economy picks up. Look we have the Smurfs movie this summer and another Transformers movie. Does it get anymore 80s than the Smurfs?
