You know, it's funny how time flies. When I first saw Blast From The Past, I was just a kid myself.

Anyway, the next time you're watching Blast From The Past, remember to appreciate Brendan Fraser's ageless charm. He might've been 39 when he played Adam, but he'll always be the boyishly handsome hero in our hearts. And who knows?

Until next time, folks. Keep your eyes on the silver screen, and your minds open to the mysteries of Hollywood's timeless leading men.
