It was the writers of TV comedy series SCTV (Second City TV) that noted how they had used to write and film the show sometimes up to 6 months in advance of it being screened. This forced them to avoid any recent events or specific political jokes. As such a lot of it aged much better than their contemporaries where the jokes applied to the current news cycle.
The one time I find funny was on the show 'The Golden Girls' where they had Bob Hope do about 2 minutes of his stand up and it was all jokes about Ronald Reagan and the administration of the time. It aged terribly.
Movies and the technology they use needs to have the eye of an artist not just an eye of how to use it. I mean the visual effects can be technically low level but when used in the right context still work exceptionally well. The Abyss being the best example of this, CGI is only used on a creature that is completely alien and doesn't conform to anything real world and that is why it works. But I could render it faster on my watch than the systems they built it on.
