The first movie I watched last night, came out in 1981 (set in 1936): Raiders of the Lost Ark, I watched it in preparation to eventually go see the Indiana Jones exhibit at the Telus World of Science - Edmonton.
The second movie I watched tonight, came out in 2014, and starts off set in 1988! though moves to 2014 quickly: Guardians of the Galaxy.

Just thought it was an interesting comparison. There are probably more movies out there with the same similarities, just haven't seen any others in a while.
