Equipment technology and improved conditioning has made tennis a sport for grown-ups, which Murray has surely become with a wife, a child and a growing sense of self as an off-court crusader for what he believes in (his choice of Mauresmo to succeed Lendl as coach in 2014 being one example).
Although horror does tend to address itself to the small, frightened child that lives inside all of us, all our lives, Matheson's horror is for grown-ups, those who have lost the easy credulity of the very young; for us, believing anything out of the ordinary is a process, usually an arduous one.
All the weaknesses that plagued "The Phantom Menace" 20 years ago are still readily apparent in 2019: the actors stiffened by dialogue that must have sounded snappier in its original Huttese; the nonaction scenes that alternately appeal to the very young or to grown-ups stuck in meetings all day; the midi-chlorians.

But what's even more impressive is the subtle stuff you almost don't notice because Giles wears his intellect so lightly: the masterly knowledge of hip-hop and R&B; the command of technology's uses and abuses; the discerning ear for the way high schoolers talk, both to one another and to grown-ups.
The publication is spoken of as special in the sense of not being a real part of the rest of the media landscape: it is an outlier, defined by some aspirational teenness that grown ups could never replicate, the way that an adult actress could never turn into a 15-year-old IG starlet.

Spires's message is not subtle: She writes as an unapologetic champion of the idea that, rather than pushing elementary-schoolers into organized, goal-oriented pursuits, we would enrich their lives more by offering them, say, a couple of unstructured hours with a giant cardboard box, some scissors, packing tape and markers, and no grown-ups chirping directions at them.

If you compare season one to season four, Survivor's Remorse wouldn't necessarily look like a wholly different show—but by embracing its serious side, it now deserves a place at the grown-ups' table of prestige TV. The tonal shift largely emerged from the loss of Mike Epps's Uncle Julius character at the start of season three.
Throughout the Midwest, bands such as Grown Ups and Coping were working on their own blend of punk-leaning emo, and by the time the "emo revival" was getting mainstream press coverage, the sound of Frame & Canvas had become so foundational it was hard to find a band that didn't have a bit of Braid in them.
