Crazy things are happening this year, for instance Leonardo DiCaprio finally won an Oscar, and Kevin is the only Jonas Brother not currently producing music. This seems to be the summer of comebacks, and I don't mean the ones that you wish you had thought of while you were arguing with your frenemy. No, I mean the things that will make you stop and think, "what's my age again?" I know that we have all heard the saying that "history repeats itself" and that the things that were popular ages ago come back in a cycle- well how about all at once.
1. Blink-182
While it sounds similar to what they have released in the past, Blink-182 released their new single "Bored to Death" about a month ago after an 11 year hiatus- the band self-produced their first EP in 1993.
2. Finding Nemo
Although a sequel hardly counts as a comeback, it did take thirteen years for the original viewers of Finding Nemo to finally get Finding Dory. I have not yet seen it, though I heard it went swimmingly.
3. Pokémon
I am sure that by now, everyone is well aware that Pokémon is back in the spotlight with its new mobile app, Pokémon Go.
4. Ghostbusters
The original Ghostbusters movie made its debut in 1984, and with this remake, we can see that many things have changed since we left the 80s.
5. My Chemical Romance
I think this is my favorite comeback on the list, it warms my heart to see that My Chemical Romance is on the radar again. Short background story, I wore my only My Chemical Romance t-shirt to my friend's birthday party on THE day that they announced that they were breaking up- we almost cried together when we heard the news. Although they have not announced what is to come on September 23rd, their fandom has arisen, armed and ready with their thick eyeliner.
6. Candy
Even candy brands are going old school, bringing back the original, now "retro," packaging. Mars is celebrating the 75th anniversary of M&Ms, and Nestle's brand Wonka has done a "throwback" look for its boxed candies.
Since there is still a little over a month until school starts again, hopefully there are more comebacks in store for this summer. With all the things that seem to be making a comeback this summer, perhaps the Bernie supporters are in luck.
