Exactly! I just can't believe the things we had to go through to watch a movie or get a plumber to fix your squirting tap 😂 kids these days will never know the struggle!
@@RS-js2df Don’t you think Northern Ireland is like another planet and the accents reflect that? Maybe they are just more extreme on Derry Girls because it’s a comedy. Accents on The Fall (filmed in Belfast) aren’t as exaggerated. I suspect Irish people can tell the difference.
I was definitely with Oliver in feeling incredibly-ancient with all of these, as I used to have all of them when I was growing-up through the 80s and 90s. Ben was so cute with his reactions to certain things, as it was like he was being shown ancient treasures some archaeologist had just dug-up.
Lil guy was really put on the spot there. Wouldve been cool to see a reverse. Of asking the adults about some modern tech, product, trend, or slang, or app.
I can feel Oliver's reactions to the core... 90s kids saw rapid evolution of technology... A message: *90s kids... We had a glorious childhood and teenage years. I know y'all won't be having a perfectly splendid adult life. But we'll fight and survive...*
This is how you act towards a young person who doesn't know what an obsolete item is. Oliver didn't try and embarrass Benjamin, or make him feel stupid; he was very casual in his explanations of the things the kid didn't know, and was encouraging with the correct guesses.
@@amandadublin3129 Ah I see, never knew that. Makes sense now. I figured all portable CD players were called discmans. I guess in the same way Walkman was Sony's brand of portable cassette player. Walkman sounded way easier/better. I never heard the term cdman though.
@@honeypower yeah I've never heard it either... I'd say if you looked hard enough you'd find the makers of Bly Manor had a product placement deal with a different electronics company preventing them from uttering a Sony brand name out loud in promos.
You can actually buy Tomogatchi again. Which I find ridiculous. But also did anybody else grow up in that overlap period where the switch to CDs hadn't been fully made so you still had to save the occasional thing on floppy discs, and then had another overlap from CDs to thumbdrives? Ah yes, the experience of growing up during the technologic boom.
The point of him being Scottish was basically to help explain some of the prejudice he was battling and why he had essentially hit his ceiling as Henry’s assistant. Especially back then, there was heavy prejudice against Scottish people in England. It helps explain some of his viewpoint and actions in the series.
I didn't know that about the predjudice against Scottish people at that time. I suppose my comment was more about showing a diverse UK. If they were set on the character being Scottish it would've been nice for them to introduce a new Scottish actor. If it was mainly aimed at showing inequality and prejudice it would've been interesting to see someone from a mining background as that was also a big issue at the time in which it was set.
@@gnomie3908 It seems that actors from Europe commonly switch accents based on the role, Saorsie & Fassbender come to mind. Scottish actors do all different accents too. I could name many of those. I don't think it's any bit of an issue for Europeans to switch to European accents, but that's just a guess from what I've seen. I think it's extremely impressive for an actor to be able to do it in any way. But while you could argue that there are so few roles in their native accent anyways for Scottish actors, you could also argue that acceptability of any European actor who can switch accents greatly broadens the career opportunities for all of them. Scottish arnt limited to Scottish roles, Irish arnt limited to Irish roles, Brits to Brit roles, etc. There's also the fact that many Europeans do have a mixture of accents because they've grown up in different countries. Which gives them greater accent versatility
Benjamin is such a great child actor..wonderful performance as miles in hunting of the bly manor👏👏👏👏 keep doing the great job and stay humble.. GOD Bless
Naw, if you were kind of a nerdy kid, or what would pass for nerdy in the 70s, in America, you WANTED a fountain pen, with the fancy split point and those ink cartridges. I loved writing with them, the ink flowed smoothly, like a gel pen, but the tip made a scratchy sound that seemed, oh, I don't know--elegant?? But the ink could be messy, and you had to keep buying new cartridges, so they weren't very practical. I still have a couple of them but rarely use them. They sell them as disposables now.
Listening to him explain old technology really does make us sound insane, carrying around a mini CD player just so you could listen to maybe 10 songs. 😂
I was born in early 2000s and my parents are 80s kids so I knew all of these and my mom and grandmother have like all of the Disney classics on VHS and my grandmother still has her VHS player so it’s really neat watching them
the haunting of hill house is a lot scarier. it is. which is why i love bly manor lmaoo also luke was treated so horriblyyyy i hate it when ppl are mean to addicts😭
As a movie major I have to say, the kid is doing an amazing job at describing what a roll of film is and how films were played back in the day. Better than some students, including myself.
He didn't nail the floppy disk one 😂 he thought it was the little tray you put CDs you want to play on your laptop 😂 I'm 24 but I still remember playing with floppy disks my siblings used, didn't understand why they got so annoyed when I used them as Frisbees 😂
back when I was a kid, I used to call a discman "walkman" cause I thought that's what they were still called. I didn't know that when you said "walkman", it was for the ones that played cassette tapes.
"I know what that is."
"Oh good."
"That's a speaker!"
He said it with so much confidence 😂
Yeah man, we watched the video too
I love that they called him The Haunting of Bly Manor kid 😂 Netflix are honestly past caring
😂😂
😂😂
LOL
Lmfaooo
Violated him 😭
He told this kid "itd kind of like an ipod" to explain what a cd player is. 😂😂 Kids like, cool, whats an ipod?
I legit thought Oliver Jackson Cohen was American cause of the first season. That's how convincing he was.
I was thinking wow he nailed a Scottish accent for an American in bly.
@@khayr87 when i heard him speak in a scottish accent i knew he couldnt be american lol
No american looks this good lol
Well he certainly wasn't Scottish 👀
Yeah and then he fooled me again with that scottish accent he’s one fine actor
we’re not old, it’s just that technology evolved SO FAST all of a sudden... i used to have so many Disney movies on VHS tapes, those were the days
I even got the first lord of the rings movie on vhs and i got the other two on dvd, so that was probably the shift😅
I still have my vhs player and all my childhood tapes😅
Exactly! I just can't believe the things we had to go through to watch a movie or get a plumber to fix your squirting tap
😂 kids these days will never know the struggle!
Lol I kept some of mine still! I also still have my original N64 from 1995 :) Still works great!!
Yes i agree. Technology is rapidly evolving, and tbh im nit sure if thats a good thing or bad thing. Only time will tell long before I’m gone.
What a brilliant actor. This kid really sold himself as the scariest part of the show.
Oliver Jackson cohen doing that Scottish accent *chefs kiss*
It was so hot. Honestly it’s what made me start this new crush I’ve found myself having lol
@@missym877 yes, the whole cast is beautiful 😭💜
Wait i thought it was an Irish accent 😭

The kid: what it's an ipod 👁️👄👁️
Bahahahahhaha
Oliver is trying to make himself feel younger by pretending that Ben knew most of the things. 😂😂
@sulagna barua Yeah, but sometimes there maturity are more mature than your thoughts.
Kids today will never know the responsibility and stress of being asked to keep your friend's Tamagotchi alive...
My child doesn’t believe that we had to actually go to the video store to rent a movie. They really have no idea!
Yes!!!!
Omg, I totally forgot how obsessed I used to be with Tamagochi back in elementary 😂.
Haha!!!
They're still around, though, right?
Benjamin is so bright. You can see it in his acting and all of his interviews. Hes going to go so far.
I'm convinced Ben is royalty or something. He's so proper.
OJC is slowly becoming a prominent leading man. Him and Rahul kohli really upped the oomph factor of Bly manor.
are you seriously putting OJC's oomph in the same league as Kohli lmao XD XD
I would love to see OJC play Moon Knight for Marvel
@@krabbykat9918??? OJC >>>
Whaaat? They were side characters at most. Victoria and Amelia were the main focus of that show

I’m only halfway through the show and currently very scared of this child but dang he’s cute here 😅
the way Oliver looks at Benjamin when he's trying to get what it is omg. Pure adoration. Like watching your kid discovering smth new
I feel like there was no swapping in "Generation Swap".
It's more like "Generation Interrogation". Lol
and it even rhymes lol
Well said lol
A “cd man”?! Ehhh I think he means discman? Has anyone in the history of the world called it’s cd man?!
Was that an English thing? Lol
We called it a disc player 😂😂
I used to call it just „man“
I remember it as a discman. I think Oliver Jackson-Cohen is still younger than he thinks.
erm whats a discman😂
"It was called the yellow pages. It was like our Google. 😆"
"😧😧😧"
Lmaoo

his scottish accent added +10 years of my life.
This kid actually knew alot. Very impressed.

BEN IS SO CUTE, his face gets so red when he calls it a speaker!!! i love this kid. he's great!

"CDman" what the? It was called a discman when I was growing up. Unless they changed the name.
Yea it was called discman but some ppl called it cdman as well.
Discman was Sonys brand name version so I'd say that's why they called it something non-branded

Oliver can make me forget how to breathe 😂
What a charming young man! His acting was phenomenal in The Haunting of Bly Manor

If the actor has an English accent (one that for once isn't posh or cockney for once) then why would they try to make him Scottish?!?
... because people from scotland exist and can be in things set in england???
The point of him being Scottish was basically to help explain some of the prejudice he was battling and why he had essentially hit his ceiling as Henry’s assistant. Especially back then, there was heavy prejudice against Scottish people in England. It helps explain some of his viewpoint and actions in the series.

@Netflix- can you start a show that just has Oliver Jackson-Cohen explaining what everything is to kids? ❤️
Benjamin is such a great child actor..wonderful performance as miles in hunting of the bly manor👏👏👏👏 keep doing the great job and stay humble.. GOD Bless
my god Oliver is so fucking handsome, i just stared at his face without listening sometimes..
Wow that kid was good! I was born in 1992, and I didn’t get that ink thing....I don’t remember that being a thing at alllll
Same! 92 here as well
are you in the UK? i have a feeling it may have been a British schools thing

About to be 26 and had no clue about the ink thing lol
Let oliver know the film photography community is still thriving!
Oliver’s slight breakdown over the VHS made this for me.
Shortly followed by the black nails
I didnt recognize Oliver is the guy who played the addict twin brother on hill house.
At first, me neather
Same! His whole vibe was different
Listening to him explain old technology really does make us sound insane, carrying around a mini CD player just so you could listen to maybe 10 songs. 😂
Benjamin is so adorable and amazing actor! i loved his accent. and oliver is sooo dreamy *swoons*
In France, we called the cd players/cdMan : a "diskman".
same in australia
They just called it a CD player, never heard of it as a CD MAN Lmaoo, ya sure you didn’t make it up Oliver?
Different places call it different things lol
A CD player isn't necessarily small and battery operated and have that anti-skip feature so you could walk with it, so... nope.
Oh boy, disposable cameras. I miss those
These two guys are just adorable !
British people used to use fountain pens in school? So fancy
Had to use them in school in Montreal too. But it was a French private school so maybe that's why
I love how they’re genuinely excited about this bit
ojc truly doing something w this angle ....
I feel so old and I'm 23, I got them all.
This was adorable, that kid is so cute and sweet!
Feeling ancient now!! My kids all grew up in the 90’s!! Wow , how times have changed!! 🥰💖👵🏼
the show didn't actually have much 80s tech in it when you think about it
Somehow I was born in the period of time where I know what this stuff is, but no clue how to use any of it
