It's released in 84', which was likely written and even filmed during 83', so lots of 70s cultural vibes were still pretty strong. The "personality" of a decade doesn't really evolve until at least the 5th year. That's why it's really late 80s movies that feel the most "80s"

I watched this movie when I was a child. I was not a hug comic nerd at the time so when I was talking to my friends that are comic nerds about it they said I had a lot of info wrong about super girl. Like I actually thought she came from inside the water, like there was a part of krypton inside a lake on earth. I mean that is what it looks like in the movie and that is where the goes back to at the end.
